Constraining the Baryon-Dark Matter Relative Velocity with the Large-Scale 3-Point Correlation Function of the SDSS BOSS DR12 CMASS Galaxies

Zachary Slepian, Daniel J. Eisenstein, Jonathan A. Blazek +12

We search for a galaxy clustering bias due to a modulation of galaxy number with the baryon-dark matter relative velocity resulting from recombination-era physics. We find no detec…

The clustering of galaxies in the completed SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: double-probe measurements from BOSS galaxy clustering \& Planck data -- towards an analysis without informative priors

Marcos Pellejero-Ibanez, Chia-Hsun Chuang, J. A. Rubiño-Martín +28

We develop a new methodology called double-probe analysis with the aim of minimizing informative priors in the estimation of cosmological parameters. We extract the dark-energy-mod…
