Abstract

We investigate the accuracy of Eulerian perturbation theory for describing the matter and galaxy power spectra in real and redshift space in light of future observational probes for precision cosmology. Comparing the analytical results with a large suite of N-body simulations (160 independent boxes of 13.8 (Gpc/h){sup 3} volume each, which are publicly available), we find that re-summing terms in the standard perturbative approach predicts the real-space matter power spectrum with an accuracy of ∼<2% for k ≤ 0.20 h/Mpc at redshifts z∼<1.5. This is obtained following the widespread technique of writing the resummed propagator in terms of 1-loop contributions. We show that the accuracy of this scheme increases by considering higher-order terms in the resummed propagator. By combining resummed perturbation theories with several models for the mappings from real to redshift space discussed in the literature, the multipoles of the dark-matter power spectrum can be described with sub-percent deviations from N-body results for k ≤ 0.15 h/Mpc at z∼<1. As a consequence, the logarithmic growth rate, f, can be recovered with sub-percent accuracy on these scales. Extending the models to massive dark-matter haloes in redshift space, our results describe the monopole term from N-body data within 2% accuracy formore »« less

Dark matter and halo bispectrum in redshift space: theory and applications

Journal Article Gil-Marín, Héctor; Percival, Will; Wagner, Christian; ... - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

We present a phenomenological modification of the standard perturbation theory prediction for the bispectrum in redshift space that allows us to extend the model to mildly non-linear scales over a wide range of redshifts, z≤1.5. Our model require 18 free parameters that are fitted to N-body simulations using the shapes k{sub 2}/k{sub 1}=1, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5. We find that we can describe the bispectrum of dark matter particles with ∼5% accuracy for k{sub i}∼<0.10 h/Mpc at z=0, for k{sub i}∼<0.15 h/Mpc at z=0.5, for k{sub i}∼<0.17 h/Mpc at z=1.0 and for k{sub i}∼<0.20 h/Mpc at z=1.5.

Scale dependence of halo and galaxy bias: Effects in real space

Journal Article Smith, Robert; Scoccimarro, Roman; Sheth, Ravi - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We examine the scale dependence of dark matter halo and galaxy clustering on very large scales (0.01<k[h Mpc{sup -1}]<0.15), due to nonlinear effects from dynamics and halo bias. We pursue a two line offensive: high-resolution numerical simulations are used to establish some old and some new results, and an analytic model is developed to understand their origins. Our simulations show: (i) that the z=0 dark matter power spectrum is suppressed relative to linear theory by {approx}5% on scales 0.05<k[h Mpc{sup -1}]<0.075; (ii) that, indeed, halo bias is nonlinear over the scales we probe and that the scale dependence is amore »« less

Efficient construction of mock catalogs for baryon acoustic oscillation surveys

Journal Article Sunayama, Tomomi; Padmanabhan, Nikhil; Heitmann, Katrin; ... - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

Precision measurements of the large scale structure of the Universe require large numbers of high fidelity mock catalogs to accurately assess, and account for, the presence of systematic effects. We introduce and test a scheme for generating mock catalogs rapidly using suitably derated N-body simulations. Our aim is to reproduce the large scale structure and the gross properties of dark matter halos with high accuracy, while sacrificing the details of the halo's internal structure. By adjusting global and local time-steps in an N-body code, we demonstrate that we recover halo masses to better than 0.5% and the power spectrum tomore »« less

DESI mock challenge: Halo and galaxy catalogues with the bias assignment method

Journal Article Balaguera-Antolínez, Andrés; Kitaura, Francisco-Shu; Alam, Shadab; ... - Astronomy and Astrophysics

We present a novel approach to the construction of mock galaxy catalogues for large-scale structure analysis based on the distribution of dark matter halos obtained with effective bias models at the field level. We aim to produce mock galaxy catalogues capable of generating accurate covariance matrices for a number of cosmological probes that are expected to be measured in current and forthcoming galaxy redshift surveys (e.g. two- and three-point statistics). The construction of the catalogues shown in this paper is part of a mock-comparison project within the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) collaboration. We use the bias assignment method (BAM)more »« less
