The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS). Gravity test from the combination of redshift-space distortions and galaxy-galaxy lensing at

S. de la Torre, E. Jullo, C. Giocoli +39

We carry out a joint analysis of redshift-space distortions and galaxy-galaxy lensing, with the aim of measuring the growth rate of structure; this is a key quantity for understand…

The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS). Full spectroscopic data and auxiliary information release (PDR-2)

M. Scodeggio, L. Guzzo, B. Garilli +42

We present the full public data release (PDR-2) of the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS), performed at the ESO VLT. We release redshifts, spectra, CFHTLS magnitud…

The XXL survey XV: Evidence for dry merger driven BCG growth in XXL-100-GC X-ray clusters

S. Lavoie, J. P. Willis, J. Democles +33

The growth of brightest cluster galaxies is closely related to the properties of their host cluster. We present evidence for dry mergers as the dominant source of BCG mass growth a…

Large-scale retrospective relative spectro-photometric self-calibration in space

Katarina Markovic, Will J. Percival, Marco Scodeggio +7

We consider the application of relative self-calibration using overlap regions to spectroscopic galaxy surveys that use slit-less spectroscopy. This method is based on that develop…

Cosmology and Fundamental Physics with the Euclid Satellite

Luca Amendola, Stephen Appleby, Anastasios Avgoustidis +69

Euclid is a European Space Agency medium class mission selected for launch in 2020 within the Cosmic Vision 2015 2025 program. The main goal of Euclid is to understand the origin o…

Initial Conditions for Accurate N-Body Simulations of Massive Neutrino Cosmologies

Matteo Zennaro, Julien Bel, Francisco Villaescusa-Navarro +3

The set-up of the initial conditions in cosmological N-body simulations is usually implemented by rescaling the desired low-redshift linear power spectrum to the required starting…
