TL;DR: Fornax 6 is a star cluster with a peculiarly low surface brightness and irregular shape, which may indicate a strong tidal influence from its host galaxy as discussed by the authors, but it is still likely more metal-rich than most of the globular clusters in the system.
Journal ArticleDOI
A map-based method for eliminating systematic modes from galaxy clustering power spectra with application to BOSS
B. Kalus,Will J. Percival,Will J. Percival,Will J. Percival,David Bacon,Eva-Maria Mueller,Lado Samushia,Lado Samushia,Lado Samushia,Licia Verde,Ashley J. Ross,José Luis Bernal +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a methodology to remove modes from a galaxy survey power spectrum that are associated with systematic errors, which can then be used to remove these systematic contaminants at least as well as applying corrective weighting to the observed galaxies, but benefits from giving an unbiased power.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used CNNs to distinguish early-type galaxies (ETGs) from late-type (LTGs) and face-on galaxies from edge-on.

Testing foundations of modern cosmology with SKA all-sky surveys
Dominik J. Schwarz,David Bacon,Song Chen,Chris Clarkson,Dragan Huterer,Martin Kunz,Martin Kunz,Roy Maartens,Alvise Raccanelli,Matthias Rubart,Jean-Luc Starck +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors outline several potentially transformational tests of cosmology to be carried out by means of SKA all-sky surveys and discuss the prospects to measure the cosmic radio dipole at high fidelity.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new method to measure galaxy bias by combining the density and weak lensing fields
Arnau Pujol,Chihway Chang,Enrique Gaztanaga,Adam Amara,Alexandre Refregier,David Bacon,J. Carretero,J. Carretero,Francisco J. Castander,Martin Crocce,Pablo Fosalba,Marc Manera,Vinu Vikram,Vinu Vikram +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a new method to measure the redshift-dependent galaxy bias by combining information from the galaxy density field and the weak lensing field using tomography instead of bias parameterizations.
