Anisotropic Counts-in-Cells in Redshift Space: A New Route to Cosmological Constraints from Galaxy Surveys
Paweł Drozda, Wojciech A. Hellwing, Maciej Bilicki
We introduce a novel extension of the volume-averaged correlation function (VACF) framework by replacing the traditional spherical smoothing kernels with anisotropic, ellipsoidal w…

Skewness as a Probe of Gravity: Real and Redshift Space Counts-In-Cells
Paweł Drozda, Wojciech A. Hellwing, Maciej Bilicki
We study the counts-in-cells reduced skewness for dark matter, halo, and galaxy distributions in both real and redshift space, using the ELEPHANT ($\textit{Extended LEnsing P…

Iteratively Comparing Gravitational-Wave Observations to the Evolution of Massive Stellar Binaries
Vera Delfavero, Richard O'Shaughnessy, Krzysztof Belczynski +2
Gravitational-wave observations have the capability to strongly differentiate between different assumptions for how binary compact objects form. In this work, we show how to carefu…
