Locating the Baryon Acoustic Peak
Fergus Simpson, John A. Peacock, Patrick Simon
Forthcoming photometric redshift surveys should provide an accurate probe of the acoustic peak in the two-point galaxy correlation function, in the form of angular clustering of ga…
The Redshift Sensitivities of Dark Energy Surveys
Fergus Simpson, Sarah Bridle
Great uncertainty surrounds dark energy, both in terms of its physics, and the choice of methods by which the problem should be addressed. Here we quantify the redshift sensitiviti…
Observing Baryon Oscillations with Cosmic Shear
Fergus Simpson
A cosmic shear survey, spanning a significant proportion of the sky, should greatly improve constraints on a number of cosmological parameters. It also provides a unique opportunit…
Illuminating Dark Energy with Cosmic Shear
Fergus Simpson, Sarah Bridle
One of the principal goals of modern cosmology is to constrain the properties of dark energy. At present, numerous surveys are aiming to determine the equation of state, which is a…
