Confronting cosmic shear astrophysical uncertainties: DES Year 3 revisited

Leah Bigwood, Jamie McCullough, Jared Siegel +19

Cosmology from weak gravitational lensing has been limited by astrophysical uncertainties in baryonic feedback and intrinsic alignments. By calibrating these effects using external…

The suppression of the matter power spectrum: strong feedback from X-ray gas mass fractions, kSZ effect profiles, and galaxy-galaxy lensing

Jared Siegel, Leah Bigwood, Alexandra Amon +6

Baryon feedback redistributes gas relative to the underlying dark matter distribution and suppresses the matter power spectrum on small scales, but the amplitude and scale dependen…

The kinetic Sunyaev Zeldovich effect as a benchmark for AGN feedback models in hydrodynamical simulations: insights from DESI + ACT

Leah Bigwood, Masaya Yamamoto, Jared Siegel +7

Baryonic feedback remains one of the largest uncertainties in cosmological hydrodynamical simulations, with different prescriptions producing divergent predictions for the fraction…

Joint X-ray, kinetic Sunyaev-Zeldovich, and weak lensing measurements: toward a consensus picture of efficient gas expulsion from groups and clusters

Jared Siegel, Alexandra Amon, Ian G. McCarthy +7

There is no consensus on how baryon feedback shapes the underlying matter distribution from either simulations or observations. We confront the uncertain landscape by jointly analy…

FLAMINGO: combining kinetic SZ effect and galaxy-galaxy lensing measurements to gauge the impact of feedback on large-scale structure

Ian G. McCarthy, Alexandra Amon, Joop Schaye +13

Energetic feedback processes associated with accreting supermassive black holes can expel gas from massive haloes and significantly alter various measures of clustering on ~Mpc sca…

Stirring the cosmic pot: how black hole feedback shapes the matter power spectrum in the Fable simulations

Sergio Martin-Alvarez, Vid Iršič, Sophie Koudmani +3

Understanding the impact of baryonic physics on cosmic structure formation is crucial for accurate cosmological predictions, especially as we usher in the era of large galaxy surve…
