Probing the Fundamental Nature of Dark Matter with the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope
Alex Drlica-Wagner, Yao-Yuan Mao, Susmita Adhikari +97
Astrophysical and cosmological observations currently provide the only robust, empirical measurements of dark matter. Future observations with Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST…
Beyond Assembly Bias: Exploring Secondary Halo Biases for Cluster-size Haloes
Yao-Yuan Mao, Andrew R. Zentner, Risa H. Wechsler
Secondary halo bias, commonly known as 'assembly bias,' is the dependence of halo clustering on a halo property other than mass. This prediction of the Lambda-Cold Dark Matter cosm…
LSST Science Book, Version 2.0
LSST Science Collaboration, Paul A. Abell, Julius Allison +245
A survey that can cover the sky in optical bands over wide fields to faint magnitudes with a fast cadence will enable many of the exciting science opportunities of the next decade.…
Utilizing Type Ia Supernovae in a Large, Fast, Imaging Survey to Constrain Dark Energy
Andrew R. Zentner, Suman Bhattacharya
We study the utility of a large sample of type Ia supernovae that might be observed in an imaging survey that rapidly scans a large fraction of the sky for constraining dark energy…
Cold Dark Matter Substructure and Galactic Disks I: Morphological Signatures of Hierarchical Satellite Accretion
Stelios Kazantzidis, James S. Bullock, Andrew R. Zentner +2
(Abridged) We conduct a series of high-resolution, dissipationless N-body simulations to investigate the cumulative effect of substructure mergers onto thin disk galaxies in the co…
The Robustness of Dark Matter Density Profiles in Dissipationless Mergers
Stelios Kazantzidis, Andrew R. Zentner, Andrey V. Kravtsov
We present a comprehensive series of dissipationless N-body simulations to investigate the evolution of density distribution in equal-mass mergers between dark matter (DM) halos an…
