Probing Baryons with the Kinematic Sunyae Zel'dovich Effect and Machine Learning Derived Peculiar Velocities using DESI DR2 and ACT DR6

Yulin Gong, Rachel Bean, Patricio A. Gallardo +54

We present novel empirical constraints on average optical depths and gas density profiles from combining kinematic Sunyaev Zel'dovich effect (kSZ) measurements and nonlinear peculi…

Model-Independent Measurement of Baryon Gas Fractions through Galaxy-Galaxy Lensing and the Kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect

R. Henry Liu, Uroš Seljak, Simone Ferraro +52

Baryon feedback is a leading source of systematic uncertainty for cosmology from weak lensing, but measurements of the gas distribution around galaxies have largely relied on param…

Intrinsic Tidal Shear at the Largest Scales: Galaxy Multiplet Alignment in DESI DR2

C. Lamman, J. Aguilar, S. Ahlen +45

We measure the intrinsic alignment (IA) of galaxy multiplets with the large-scale tidal field traced by galaxy positions in DESI Data Release 2. Using the BGS, LRG, and ELG samples…

Optical Depths from the Thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect with ACT DR6 and DESI DR1 Spectroscopic Galaxies and Optically-Selected Clusters

J. E. Moore, C. Popik, Y. Gong +66

We present stacked thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (tSZ) effect measurements for three samples of galaxy groups and clusters: those traced by the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument Da…

A Finely-Binned Measurement of the Connected Even-Parity Galaxy 4-Point Correlation Function of DESI Year 1 Luminous Red Galaxies

William Ortolá Leonard, Alex Krolewski, Zachary Slepian +46

We present the connected even-parity galaxy 4-Point Correlation Function (4PCF) of DESI Year 1 (Y1) Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs). This is one of the first measurements of the conne…

Model Predictive Scoring Shows Specific BAO Observations (not SNIa) Drives Tension

Tanveer Karim, Joshua S. Speagle, Renée Hložek

The recent analyses of DESI DR2 BAO, Planck CMB and various Supernovae datasets have shown preferences for evolving dark energy at various levels of significance, under frequentist…
