Accretion-Driven Evolution of Black Holes: Eddington Ratios, Duty Cycles, and Active Galaxy Fractions
Francesco Shankar, David H. Weinberg, Jordi Miralda-Escude'
We develop semi-empirical models of the supermassive black hole and active galactic nucleus (AGN) populations, which incorporate the black hole growth implied by the observed AGN l…
Generating mock data sets for large-scale Lyman-α forest correlation measurements
Andreu Font-Ribera, Patrick McDonald, Jordi Miralda-Escudé
Massive spectroscopic surveys of high-redshift quasars yield large numbers of correlated Lyman α absorption spectra that can be used to measure large-scale structure. Simulations o…
Neutrino Halos in Clusters of Galaxies and their Weak Lensing Signature
Francisco Villaescusa-Navarro, Jordi Miralda-Escudé, Carlos Peña-Garay +1
We study whether non-linear gravitational effects of relic neutrinos on the development of clustering and large-scale structure may be observable by weak gravitational lensing. We…
The Lyman-alpha forest in three dimensions: measurements of large scale flux correlations from BOSS 1st-year data
Anže Slosar, Andreu Font-Ribera, Matthew M. Pieri +34
Using a sample of approximately 14,000 z>2.1 quasars observed in the first year of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS), we measure the three-dimensional correlation…
