Illuminating the Physics of Dark Energy with the Discovery Simulations

Gillian D. Beltz-Mohrmann, Adrian Pope, Alex Alarcon +10

In this paper, we present the Discovery simulations: a new pair of high-resolution N-body simulations motivated by the DESI Y1 BAO cosmological constraints on dark energy. The Disc…

Galaxy assembly bias in the stellar-to-halo mass relation for red central galaxies from SDSS

Grecco A. Oyarzún, Jeremy L. Tinker, Kevin Bundy +2

We report evidence of galaxy assembly bias - the correlation between galaxy properties and biased secondary halo properties at fixed halo mass (M) - in the stellar-to-halo mass…

Cluster Cosmology Without Cluster Finding

Enia Xhakaj, Alexie Leauthaud, Johannes Lange +5

We propose that observations of super-massive galaxies contain cosmological constraining power similar to conventional cluster cosmology, and we provide promising indications that…
