Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Cross-Correlation Redshifts - Methods and Systematics Characterization
M. Gatti, P. Vielzeuf, C. Davis +104
We use numerical simulations to characterize the performance of a clustering-based method to calibrate photometric redshift biases. In particular, we cross-correlate the weak lensi…
Cosmological parameter constraints from SDSS luminous red galaxies: a new treatment of large-scale clustering
Ariel G. Sanchez, M. Crocce, A. Cabre +2
We apply a new model for the spherically averaged correlation function at large pair separations to the measurement of the clustering of luminous red galaxies (LRGs) made from the…
The Dark Energy Camera (DECam)
K. Honscheid, D. L. DePoy
In this paper we describe the Dark Energy Camera (DECam), which will be the primary instrument used in the Dark Energy Survey. DECam will be a 3 sq. deg. mosaic camera mounted at t…
Clustering of Luminous Red Galaxies III: Detection of the Baryon Acoustic Peak in the 3-point Correlation Function
E. Gaztanaga, A. Cabre, F. Castander +2
We present the 3-point function ξ_3 and Q_3=ξ_3/ξ_2^2 for a spectroscopic sample of luminous red galaxies (LRG) from SDSS DR6 & DR7. We find a strong (S/N6) detection of o…
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: higher order galaxy correlation functions
D. J. Croton, E. Gaztanaga, C. M. Baugh +26
We measure moments of the galaxy count probability distribution function in the two-degree field galaxy redshift survey (2dFGRS). The survey is divided into volume limited subsampl…
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Hierarchical galaxy clustering
C. M. Baugh, D. J. Croton, E. Gaztanaga +26
We use the two-degree field Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) to test the hierarchical scaling hypothesis: namely, that the -point galaxy correlation functions can be written in t…
Breaking the "Redshift Deadlock" -- II: The redshift distribution for the submillimetre population of galaxies
I. Aretxaga, D. H. Hughes, E. L. Chapin +3
In this paper we apply our Monte-Carlo photometric-redshift technique, introduced in paper I (Hughes et al. 2002), to the multi-wavelength data available for 77 galaxies selected a…
The 3-point function in the large scale structure: I. The weakly non-linear regime in N-body simulations
J. Barriga, E. Gaztanaga
This paper presents a comparison of the predictions for the 2 and 3-point correlation functions of density fluctuations, xi_2 and xi_3, in gravitational perturbation theory (PT) ag…
Breaking the Redshift Deadlock - I: Constraining the star formation history of galaxies with sub-millimetre photometric redshifts
D. H. Hughes, I. Aretxaga, E. L. Chapin +10
Future extragalactic sub-millimetre and millimetre surveys have the potential to provide a sensitive census of the level of obscured star formation in galaxies at all redshifts. Wh…
Clustering in Deep (Submillimeter) Surveys
Enrique Gaztanaga, David H. Hughes
Hughes & Gaztanaga (2001, see article in these proceedings) have presented realistic simulations to address key issues confronting existing and forthcoming submm surveys. An import…
Evidence for an inflationary phase transition from the LSS and CMB anisotropy data
J. Barriga, E. Gaztanaga, M. G. Santos +1
In the light of the recent Boomerang and Maxima observations of the CMB which show an anomalously low second acoustic peak, we reexamine the prediction by Adams et al (1997) that t…
Data Processing and Compression of Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropies on Board the PLANCK Satellite
E. Gaztanaga, A. Romeo, J. Barriga +1
We present a simple way of coding and compressing the data on board the Planck instruments (HFI and LFI) to address the problem of the on board data reduction. This is a critical i…
Cosmological Perturbation Theory and the Spherical Collapse model - III. The Velocity divergence field and the dependence
P. Fosalba, E. Gaztanaga
Cosmological Perturbation Theory (PT) is a useful tool to study the cumulants of the density and velocity fields in the large scale structure of the Universe. In Papers I & II of t…
Comparison of the Large Scale Clustering in the APM and the EDSGC Galaxy Surveys
István Szapudi, E. Gaztañaga
Clustering statistics are compared in the Automatic Plate Machine (APM) and the Edinburgh/Durham Southern Galaxy Catalogue (EDSGC) angular galaxy surveys. Both surveys were indepen…
