The impact of projection effects on cluster observables: stacked lensing and projected clustering

TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify the impact of projection effects on cluster cosmology using mock cluster catalogs built from cosmological N-body simulations, and identify the origin of these boosts as the inherent selection bias of optical cluster finders for clusters embedded within filaments aligned with the line of sight.

Fourier Band-Power E/B-mode Estimators for Cosmic Shear

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new Fourier band-power estimator for cosmic shear data analysis and E/B-mode separation, which can be written as linear combinations of the binned cosmic Shear correlation functions.

DEMNUni: Massive neutrinos and the bispectrum of large scale structures

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the first measurements of the next higher-order correlation function, the bispectrum, from N-body simulations that include massive neutrinos as particles.

Cosmological test of gravity using weak lensing voids

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study the ability of weak lensing voids to detect the signatures of modified gravity in an LSST-like survey and find that both statistics are sensitive probes of gravity.

Do cosmological data rule out f(R) with w≠−1?

TL;DR: In this article, the Equation of State (EoS) approach is applied to dark sector perturbations and applied to $f(\mathcal{R})$ gravity models of dark energy.

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.
