Nested sampling for physical scientists

Greg Ashton, Noam Bernstein, Johannes Buchner +20

We review Skilling's nested sampling (NS) algorithm for Bayesian inference and more broadly multi-dimensional integration. After recapitulating the principles of NS, we survey deve…

Bayesian posterior repartitioning for nested sampling

Xi Chen, Farhan Feroz, Michael Hobson

Priors in Bayesian analyses often encode informative domain knowledge that can be useful in making the inference process more efficient. Occasionally, however, priors may be unrepr…

AMI-CL J0300+2613: a Galactic anomalous-microwave-emission ring masquerading as a galaxy cluster

Yvette C. Perrott, Therese M. Cantwell, Steve H. Carey +17

The Arcminute Microkelvin Imager (AMI) carried out a blind survey for galaxy clusters via their Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect decrements between 2008 and 2011. The first detection, kno…

Free-form modelling of galaxy clusters: a Bayesian and data-driven approach

Malak Olamaie, Michael P. Hobson, Farhan Feroz +5

A new method is presented for modelling the physical properties of galaxy clusters. Our technique moves away from the traditional approach of assuming specific parameterised functi…

AMI observations of ten CLASH galaxy clusters: SZ and X-ray data used together to determine cluster dynamical states

Clare Rumsey, Malak Olamaie, Yvette C. Perrott +7

Using Arcminute Microkelvin Imager (AMI) SZ observations towards ten CLASH clusters we investigate the influence of cluster mergers on observational galaxy cluster studies. Althoug…

CARMA observations of massive Planck-discovered cluster candidates at z>0.5 associated with WISE overdensities: Breaking the size-flux degeneracy

C. Rodriguez-Gonzalvez, R. Chary, S. Muchovej +4

We use a Bayesian software package to analyze CARMA-8 data towards 19 unconfirmed Planck SZ-cluster candidates from Rodriguez-Gonzalvez et al. (2015), that are associated with sign…
