Large-scale galaxy bias

V Desjacques, D Jeong, F Schmidt - Physics reports, 2018 - Elsevier
This review presents a comprehensive overview of galaxy bias, that is, the statistical relation
between the distribution of galaxies and matter. We focus on large scales where cosmic …

Cosmology with cosmic shear observations: a review

M Kilbinger - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
Cosmic shear is the distortion of images of distant galaxies due to weak gravitational lensing
by the large-scale structure in the Universe. Such images are coherently deformed by the …

structure in the Canada–France–Hawaii Telescope Lensing Survey (CFHTLenS) which …

Power spectrum super-sample covariance

M Takada, W Hu - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2013 - APS
We provide a simple, unified approach to describing the impact of super-sample covariance,
or beat coupling, on power spectrum estimation in a finite-volume survey. For a wide range …

Quijote-png: The information content of the halo power spectrum and bispectrum

WR Coulton, F Villaescusa-Navarro… - The Astrophysical …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate how much can be learnt about four types of primordial non-Gaussianity
(PNG) from small-scale measurements of the halo field. Using the quijote-png simulations …

Detecting neutrino mass by combining matter clustering, halos, and voids

AE Bayer, F Villaescusa-Navarro… - The Astrophysical …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
We quantify the information content of the nonlinear matter power spectrum, the halo mass
function, and the void size function, using the Quijote N-body simulations. We find that these …

Super-sample covariance in simulations

Y Li, W Hu, M Takada - Physical Review D, 2014 - APS
Using separate universe simulations, we accurately quantify super-sample covariance
(SSC), the typically dominant sampling error for matter power spectrum estimators in a finite …
