Skipping the rungs! Calibrating distance indicators through their clustering with galaxies
Madeline L. Cross-Parkin, Leonardo Giani, Cullan Howlett +1
We show that angular cross-correlations between distance indicators and galaxy redshift catalogues, when interpreted within an assumed cosmological model, can constrain potential b…
Dark siren cross-correlations and the sensitivity of to methodological choices
Madeline L. Cross-Parkin, Cullan Howlett, Leonardo Giani +2
Gravitational wave sources act as absolute distance indicators, making them powerful probes of the present-day expansion rate of the Universe, . The cross-correlation method c…
The velocity coherence scale: a novel probe of cosmic homogeneity and a potential standard ruler
Leonardo Giani, Cullan Howlett, Chris Blake +2
We introduce the velocity coherence scale , the scale at which the spherical volume average of the trace of the velocity correlation tensor transitions from scaling faster tha…
The DESI DR1 Peculiar Velocity Survey: growth rate measurements from the maximum likelihood fields method
Y. Lai, C. Howlett, J. Aguilar +60
We present the constraint on the growth rate of structure from the combination of DESI DR1 BGS sample, Fundamental Plane, and Tully-Fisher peculiar velocity catalogues using the ma…
Limits of self-interacting neutrinos from the BAO and CMB phase shift
Abbé M. Whitford, Cullan Howlett, Tamara M. Davis +2
Neutrinos with Standard Model interactions free-stream in the early Universe, leaving a distinct phase shift in the pattern of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO). When isolated, th…
Can a multi-tracer approach improve the constraints on the turnover scale at low redshift?
Yan Lai, Cullan Howlett, Tamara Davis
The turnover scale of the power spectrum is related to the size of the particle horizon at the matter-radiation equality, which can be used as a standard ruler to constrain cosmolo…
