Cosmology and Fundamental Physics with the Euclid Satellite

Luca Amendola, +81 more
TL;DR: Euclid is a European Space Agency medium-class mission selected for launch in 2020 within the cosmic vision 2015-2025 program as discussed by the authors, which will explore the expansion history of the universe and the evolution of cosmic structures by measuring shapes and red-shift of galaxies as well as the distribution of clusters of galaxies over a large fraction of the sky.

Properties of galaxies reproduced by a hydrodynamic simulation

TL;DR: A simulation that starts 12 million years after the Big Bang, and traces 13 billion years of cosmic evolution with 12 billion resolution elements in a cube of 106.5 megaparsecs a side yields a reasonable population of ellipticals and spirals, reproduces the observed distribution of galaxies in clusters and characteristics of hydrogen on large scales, and at the same time matches the ‘metal’ and hydrogen content of galaxies on small scales.

Revising the Halofit Model for the Nonlinear Matter Power Spectrum

TL;DR: In this paper, a suite of state-of-the-art high-resolution N-body simulations is used to predict the nonlinear matter power spectrum in a universe dominated by cold dark matter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transients from initial conditions in cosmological simulations

TL;DR: In this article, the impact of setting initial conditions in numerical simulations using the standard procedure based on the Zel'dovich approximation (ZA) was studied and the improvement brought by using more accurate initial conditions based on second-order Lagrangian perturbation theory (2LPT).

A Line of sight integration approach to cosmic microwave background anisotropies

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a new method for calculating linear cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy spectra based on integration over sources along the photon past light cone.

The mass function of dark matter haloes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors combine data from a number of N-body simulations to predict the abundance of dark halos in cold dark matter (CDM) universes over more than four orders of magnitude in mass.

Weak Gravitational Lensing by Large-Scale Structure

TL;DR: Weak gravitational lensing provides a unique method to map directly the distribution of dark matter in the universe and to measure cosmological parameters as mentioned in this paper, which is a cosmic-shear technique.

Cosmological parameters from lensing power spectrum and bispectrum tomography

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined how lensing tomography with the bispectrum and power spectrum can constrain cosmological parameters and the equation of state of dark energy.
