Speed from light: growth rate and bulk flow at z ~ 0.1 from improved SDSS DR13 photometry
Martin Feix, Enzo Branchini, Adi Nusser
Observed galaxy luminosities (derived from redshifts) hold information on the large-scale peculiar velocity field in the form of spatially correlated scatter, which allows for boun…
Not a Copernican observer: biased peculiar velocity statistics in the local Universe
Wojciech A. Hellwing, Adi Nusser, Martin Feix +1
We assess the effect of the local large scale structure on the estimation of two-point statistics of the observed radial peculiar velocities of galaxies. A large N-body simulation…
Performance study of Lagrangian methods: reconstruction of large scale peculiar velocities and baryonic acoustic oscillations
Ariel Keselman, Adi Nusser
NoAM for "No Action Method" is a framework for reconstructing the past orbits of observed tracers of the large scale mass density field. It seeks exact solutions of the equations o…
The Detailed Science Case for the Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer: the Composition and Dynamics of the Faint Universe
Alan McConnachie, Carine Babusiaux, Michael Balogh +173
MSE is an 11.25m aperture observatory with a 1.5 square degree field of view that will be fully dedicated to multi-object spectroscopy. More than 3200 fibres will feed spectrograph…
Goodness-of-fit analysis of the Cosmicflows-2 database of velocities
Yehuda Hoffman, Adi Nusser, Helene M. Courtois +1
The goodness-of-fit (GoF) of the Cosmicflows-2 (CF2) database of peculiar velocities with the LCDM standard model of cosmology is presented. Standard application of the Chi^2 stati…
On Testing the Equivalence Principle with Extragalactic Bursts
Adi Nusser
An interesting test of Einstein's equivalence principle (EEP) relies on the observed lag in arrival times of photons emitted from extragalactic transient sources. Attributing the l…
