Alignment of galaxy spins in the vicinity of voids
Anže Slosar, Martin White
We provide limits on the alignment of galaxy orientations with the direction to the void center for galaxies lying near the edges of voids. We locate spherical voids in volume limi…
Galaxy Zoo: Chiral correlation function of galaxy spins
Anze Slosar, Kate Land, Steven Bamford +9
Galaxy Zoo is the first study of nearby galaxies that contains reliable information about the spiral sense of rotation of galaxy arms for a sizeable number of galaxies. We measure…
Optimal dataset combining in f_nl constraints from large scale structure in an idealised case
Anze Slosar
We consider the problem of optimal weighting of tracers of structure for the purpose of constraining the non-Gaussianity parameter f_NL. We work within the Fisher matrix formalism…
Galaxy Zoo: the dependence of morphology and colour on environment
Steven P. Bamford, Robert C. Nichol, Ivan K. Baldry +13
We analyse the relationships between galaxy morphology, colour, environment and stellar mass using data for over 100,000 objects from Galaxy Zoo, the largest sample of visually cla…
Galaxy Zoo: The large-scale spin statistics of spiral galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Kate Land, Anze Slosar, Chris Lintott +9
We re-examine the evidence for a violation of large-scale statistical isotropy in the distribution of projected spin vectors of spiral galaxies. We have a sample of s…
Sterile neutrinos as subdominant warm dark matter
A. Palazzo, D. Cumberbatch, A. Slosar +1
In light of recent findings which seem to disfavor a scenario with (warm) dark matter entirely constituted of sterile neutrinos produced via the Dodelson-Widrow (DW) mechanism, we…
