Forecasting Super-Sample Covariance in Future Weak Lensing Surveys with SuperSCRAM

Matthew C. Digman, Joseph E. McEwen, Christopher M. Hirata

The observable universe contains density perturbations on scales larger than any finite volume survey. Perturbations on scales larger than a survey can measure degrade its power to…

The clustering of the SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey DR14 quasar sample: First measurement of Baryon Acoustic Oscillations between redshift 0.8 and 2.2

Metin Ata, Falk Baumgarten, Julian Bautista +60

We present measurements of the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) scale in redshift-space using the clustering of quasars. We consider a sample of 147,000 quasars from the extended…

FAST-PT II: an algorithm to calculate convolution integrals of general tensor quantities in cosmological perturbation theory

Xiao Fang, Jonathan A. Blazek, Joseph E. McEwen +1

Cosmological perturbation theory is a powerful tool to predict the statistics of large-scale structure in the weakly non-linear regime, but even at 1-loop order it results in compu…

FAST-PT: a novel algorithm to calculate convolution integrals in cosmological perturbation theory

Joseph E. McEwen, Xiao Fang, Christopher M. Hirata +1

We present a novel algorithm, FAST-PT, for performing convolution or mode-coupling integrals that appear in nonlinear cosmological perturbation theory. The algorithm uses several p…

The effects of assembly bias on cosmological inference from galaxy-galaxy lensing and galaxy clusters

Joseph E. McEwen, David H. Weinberg

The combination of galaxy-galaxy lensing (GGL) and galaxy clustering is a promising route to measuring the amplitude of matter clustering and testing modified gravity theories of c…

Streaming velocities and the baryon-acoustic oscillation scale

Jonathan Blazek, Joseph E. McEwen, Christopher M. Hirata

At the epoch of decoupling, cosmic baryons had supersonic velocities relative to the dark matter that were coherent on large scales. These velocities subsequently slow the growth o…

The Photon Underproduction Crisis

Juna A. Kollmeier, David H. Weinberg, Benjamin D. Oppenheimer +9

We examine the statistics of the low-redshift Lyman-alpha forest from smoothed particle hydrodynamic simulations in light of recent improvements in the estimated evolution of the c…
