TLDR
In this article, the authors present extensive forecasts for constraints on the dark energy equation of state and parameterized deviations from General Relativity, achievable with Stage III and Stage IV experimental programs that incorporate supernovae, BAO, weak lensing, and cosmic microwave background data.

Galaxy Halo Masses from Weak Gravitational Lensing

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the use of galaxy-galaxy weak lensing measurements to study the masses of dark matter halos in which galaxies reside, including the relationship between stellar mass or luminosity, and dark matter halo mass.

Matrix Formalism of Excursion Set Theory: A new approach to statistics of dark matter halo counting

TL;DR: This work shows that the discretization let us study the non-Markov processes by forcing them to look like a Wiener process, and also discusses that the zero drift processes with Gaussian and also non-Gaussian initial conditions can be studied by this formalism.

Perfect fluid filled universe in odd dimensional pure Lovelock gravity

TL;DR: In this article, the exact solutions for pure Gauss-Bonnet gravity (N = 2 ) are generated by integrating the pressure isotropy condition with suitable metric potential choices for the critical spacetime dimension 5.

OUP accepted manuscript

TL;DR: In this paper , a novel and fast scheme to populate ELGs in dark-matter only N-body simulations based on local density field is presented, which enables fast production of mock ELG catalogues suitable for verifying analysis methods and quantifying observational systematics in upcoming spectroscopic surveys.

The Impact of Line Misidentification on Cosmological Constraints from Euclid and other Spectroscopic Galaxy Surveys

TL;DR: In this article, the spectral line misidentification has been used to degrade the signal-to-noise ratio for the power spectrum of the target galaxies, which typically increases BAO scale uncertainties at 10-20% level when marginalizing over parameters determining the broadband power spectrum shape.

The relationship between infrared, optical, and ultraviolet extinction

TL;DR: In this article, the average extinction law over the 3.5 micron to 0.125 wavelength range was derived for both diffuse and dense regions of the interstellar medium. And the validity of the law over a large wavelength interval suggests that the processes which modify the sizes and compositions of grains are stochastic in nature.
