The Two Body Problem in the Presence of Dark Energy and Modified Gravity: Application to the Local Group
Michael McLeod, Ofer Lahav
We explore mass estimation of the Local Group via the use of the simple, dynamical `timing argument' in the context of a variety of theories of dark energy and modified gravity: a…
Upper Bound of Neutrino Masses from Combined Cosmological Observations and Particle Physics Experiments
Arthur Loureiro, Andrei Cuceu, Filipe B. Abdalla +9
We investigate the impact of prior models on the upper bound of the sum of neutrino masses, . We use data from Large Scale Structure of galaxies, Cosmic Microwave Backgro…
Cosmological Measurements from Angular Power Spectra Analysis of BOSS DR12 Tomography
Arthur Loureiro, Bruno Moraes, Filipe B. Abdalla +9
We constrain cosmological parameters by analysing the angular power spectra of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey DR12 galaxies, a spectroscopic follow-up of around 1.3 mi…
A Joint Analysis for Cosmology and Photometric Redshift Calculation Using Cross Correlations
Michael McLeod, Sreekumar T. Balan, Filipe B. Abdalla
We present a method of calibrating the properties of photometric redshift bins as part of a larger Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) analysis for the inference of cosmological parame…
Estimating the Mass of the Local Group using Machine Learning Applied to Numerical Simulations
Michael McLeod, Noam Libeskind, Ofer Lahav +1
We revisit the estimation of the combined mass of the Milky Way and Andromeda (M31), which dominate the mass of the Local Group. We make use of an ensemble of 30,190 halo pairs fro…
