Gravitationally Consistent HALO Catalogs and Merger Trees for Precision Cosmology

GRAVITATIONALLY CONSISTENT HALO CATALOGS AND MERGER TREES FOR PRECISION COSMOLOGY

Journal Article Behroozi, Peter S. ; Wechsler, Risa H. ; Wu, Hao-Yi ; ... - Astrophysical Journal

We present a new algorithm for generating merger trees and halo catalogs which explicitly ensures consistency of halo properties (mass, position, and velocity) across time steps. Our algorithm has demonstrated the ability to improve both the completeness (through detecting and inserting otherwise missing halos) and purity (through detecting and removing spurious objects) of both merger trees and halo catalogs. In addition, our method is able to robustly measure the self-consistency of halo finders; it is the first to directly measure the uncertainties in halo positions, halo velocities, and the halo mass function for a given halo finder based on consistencymore »« less

Modelling projection effects in optically selected cluster catalogues

Journal Article Costanzi, Matteo ; Rozo, E. ; Rykoff, E. S. ; ... - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society

Here, the cosmological utility of galaxy cluster catalogues is primarily limited by our ability to calibrate the relation between halo mass and observable mass proxies such as cluster richness, X-ray luminosity, or the Sunyaev–Zeldovich signal. Projection effects are a particularly pernicious systematic effect that can impact observable mass proxies; structure along the line of sight can both bias and increase the scatter of the observable mass proxies used in cluster abundance studies. In this work, we develop an empirical method to characterize the impact of projection effects on redMaPPer cluster catalogues. We use numerical simulations to validate our method andmore » illustrate its robustness.« less
