Implications of the nanoHertz Gravitational-Wave Background for Galactic Feedback and Massive Black Hole Growth
Megan Taylor Tillman, Blakesley Burkhart, Chiara M. F. Mingarelli +5
We investigate how pulsar timing array (PTA) measurements of the nanoHertz gravitational-wave background (GWB) can constrain models for the growth history of supermassive black hol…
Estimating the triaxiality of massive clusters from 2D observables in MillenniumTNG with machine learning
Ana Maria Delgado, Michelle Ntampaka, Sownak Bose +7
Properties of massive galaxy clusters, such as mass abundance and concentration, are sensitive to cosmology, making cluster statistics a powerful tool for cosmological studies. How…
Secondary Dependence of Baryonic Effects on the Density Profile of Dark Matter Halos
Yikun Wang, Idit Zehavi, Sergio Contreras +3
Baryonic physics is anticipated to be a major source of systematic uncertainty in current and future large-scale cosmological surveys. We investigate how baryonic effects on halo d…
Cosmological constraints from the small scale clustering of Emission Line Galaxies
Sara Ortega-Martinez, Raul E. Angulo, Sergio Contreras +7
Spectroscopic surveys such as the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) and Euclid are mapping the spatial distribution of millions of galaxies, with Emission Line Galaxies (…
Correlated residuals in Tully-Fisher and Fundamental Plane relations and their impact on peculiar velocity measurements
Tyann Dumerchat, Raul E. Angulo, Julian Bautista +3
The Tully-Fisher (TF) and Fundamental Plane (FP) relations are widely used to infer extragalactic distances and peculiar velocities, enabling measurements of large-scale velocity s…
Infalling ultra-faint dwarfs as emissaries of the Axiverse
A. Pozo, T. Broadhurst, H. N. Luu +8
Recent discoveries of ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs) infalling onto the Milky Way, namely Leo K \& M at kpc, considerably strengthens the case that UFDs constitute…
