A blueprint for detecting supersymmetric dark matter in the Galactic halo
Volker Springel, Simon D. M. White, Carlos S. Frenk +6
Dark matter is the dominant form of matter in the universe, but its nature is unknown. It is plausibly an elementary particle, perhaps the lightest supersymmetric partner of known…
Ray-tracing through the Millennium Simulation: Born corrections and lens-lens coupling in cosmic shear and galaxy-galaxy lensing
S. Hilbert, J. Hartlap, S. D. M. White +1
(abridged) We study the accuracy of various approximations to cosmic shear and weak galaxy-galaxy lensing and investigate effects of Born corrections and lens-lens coupling. We use…
Understanding the shape of the halo-mass and galaxy-mass cross-correlation functions
E. Hayashi, S. D. M. White
We use the Millennium Simulation to measure the cross-correlation between halo centres and mass (or equivalently the average density profiles of dark haloes) in a LCDM cosmology. W…
Satellite Galaxies and Fossil Groups in the Millennium Simulation
L. V. Sales, J. F. Navarro, D. G. Lambas +2
We use a semianalytic galaxy catalogue constructed from the Millennium Simulation to study the satellites of isolated galaxies in the LCDM cosmogony. This sample (~80,000$ bright p…
Virial Scaling of Massive Dark Matter Halos: Why Clusters Prefer a High Normalization Cosmology
A. E. Evrard, J. Bialek, M. Busha +14
We present a precise estimate of the bulk virial scaling relation of halos formed via hierarchical clustering in an ensemble of simulated cold dark matter cosmologies. The result i…
EDisCS -- the ESO Distant Cluster Survey -- Sample Definition and Optical Photometry
S. D. M. White, D. I. Clowe, L. Simard +23
We present the ESO Distant Cluster Survey (EDisCS) a survey of 20 fields containing distant galaxy clusters with redshifts ranging from 0.4 to almost 1.0. Candidate clusters were c…
