Clustering properties of the CatWISE2020 quasar catalogue and their impact on the cosmic dipole anomaly

Sebastian von Hausegger, Nathan Secrest, Harry Desmond +3

The cosmic dipole anomaly -- the observation of a significant mismatch between the dipole observed in the matter distribution and that expected given the kinematic interpretation o…

Forty years of the Ellis-Baldwin test

Nathan Secrest, Sebastian von Hausegger, Mohamed Rameez +2

Modern cosmology is built on the assumption that the Universe is homogeneous and isotropic on large scales - but this is challenged by results of the Ellis-Baldwin test that show a…

Displacement Field Analysis via Optimal Transport: Multi-Tracer Approach to Cosmological Reconstruction

Farnik Nikakhtar, Ravi K. Sheth, Nikhil Padmanabhan +2

We demonstrate the effectiveness of one of the many multi-tracer analyses enabled by Optimal Transport (OT) reconstruction. Leveraging a semi-discrete OT algorithm, we determine th…

Optimal Transport Reconstruction of Biased Tracers in Redshift Space

Farnik Nikakhtar, Nikhil Padmanabhan, Bruno Lévy +2

Recent research has emphasized the benefits of accurately reconstructing the initial Lagrangian positions of biased tracers from their positions at a later time, to gain cosmologic…

Distortions of the Hubble diagram: Line-of-sight signatures of local galaxy clusters

Jenny G. Sorce, Roya Mohayaee, Nabila Aghanim +2

The Universe expansion rate is modulated around local inhomogeneities due to their gravitational potential. Velocity waves are then observed around galaxy clusters in the Hubble di…

Galaxy number-count dipole and superhorizon fluctuations

Guillem Domènech, Roya Mohayaee, Subodh P. Patil +1

In view of the growing tension between the dipole anisotropy of number counts of cosmologically distant sources and of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), we investigate the num…
