On the validity of the Born approximation for beyond-Gaussian weak lensing observables

Andrea Petri, Zoltán Haiman, Morgan May

Accurate forward modeling of weak lensing (WL) observables from cosmological parameters is necessary for upcoming galaxy surveys. Because WL probes structures in the non-linear reg…

Do dark matter halos explain lensing peaks?

José Manuel Zorrilla Matilla, Zoltán Haiman, Daniel Hsu +2

We have investigated a recently proposed halo-based model, Camelus, for predicting weak-lensing peak counts, and compared its results over a collection of 162 cosmologies with thos…

Beyond Jcrit: a critical curve for suppression of H2-cooling in protogalaxies

J. Wolcott-Green, Z. Haiman, G. L. Bryan

Suppression of H2-cooling in early protogalaxies has important implications for the formation of supermassive black holes seeds, the first generation of stars, and the epoch of rei…

CMB Lensing Beyond the Power Spectrum: Cosmological Constraints from the One-Point PDF and Peak Counts

Jia Liu, J. Colin Hill, Blake D. Sherwin +3

Unprecedentedly precise cosmic microwave background (CMB) data are expected from ongoing and near-future CMB Stage-III and IV surveys, which will yield reconstructed CMB lensing ma…

The Origin of Weak Lensing Convergence Peaks

Jia Liu, Zoltan Haiman

Weak lensing convergence peaks are a promising tool to probe nonlinear structure evolution at late times, providing additional cosmological information beyond second-order statisti…

Are we witnessing the epoch of reionisation at from the spectrum of J1120+0641?

Bradley Greig, Andrei Mesinger, Zoltán Haiman +1

We quantify the presence of Lyα damping wing absorption from a partially-neutral intergalactic medium (IGM) in the spectrum of the QSO, ULASJ1120+0641. Using a Bayesian fr…
