Dark energy homogeneity in general relativity: Are we applying it correctly?
(Springer, 2016)Thus far, there does not appear to be an agreed (or adequate) definition of homogeneous dark energy (DE). This paper seeks to define a valid, adequate homogeneity condition for DE. Firstly, it is shown that as long as ... -
A deep radio view of the evolution of the cosmic star formation rate density from a stellar-mass-selected sample in VLA-COSMOS
(Royal Astronomical Society, 2022)We present the 1.4 GHz radio luminosity functions (RLFs) of galaxies in the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) field, measured above and below the 5σ detection threshold, using a Bayesian model-fitting technique. The radio ... -
Deep Extragalactic Visible Legacy Survey (DEVILS): evolution of the σSFR –M relation and implications for self-regulated star formation
(Advance Access, 2021)We present the evolution of the star formation dispersion–stellar mass relation ( σSFR –M ) in the DEVILS D10 region using new measurements derived using the PROSPECT spectral energy distribution fitting code. We find ... -
Deep extragalactic visible legacy survey (DEVILS):Evolution of the σsFR-M relation and implications for self-regulated star formation
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)We present the evolution of the star formation dispersion–stellar mass relation ( σSFR –M ) in the DEVILS D10 region using new measurements derived using the PROSPECT spectral energy distribution fitting code. We find ... -
Deep GMRT 610 MHz observations of the ELAIS N1 field: Catalogue and source counts
(Oxford University Press, 2019)This is the first of a series of papers based on sensitive 610 MHz observations of the ELAIS N1 field, using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope. We describe the observations, processing and source catalogue extraction ... -
A deep search for faint galaxies associated with very low-redshift C iv absorbers: A case with cold-accretion characteristics
(The American Astronomical Society, 2013)Studies of QSO absorber–galaxy connections are often hindered by inadequate information on whether faint/dwarf galaxies are located near the QSO sight lines. To investigate the contribution of faint galaxies to QSO ... -
Designing an optimal LSST deep drilling program for cosmology with type Ia supernovae
(American Astronomical Society, 2023)The Vera C. Rubin Observatory’s Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) is forecast to collect a large sample of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) expected to be instrumental in unveiling the nature of dark energy. The feat, ... -
Detecting relativistic Doppler in galaxy clustering with tailored galaxy samples
(Elsivier, 2024)We present a method to obtain a high-significance detection of relativistic effects on cosmological scales. Measurements of such effects would be instrumental for our understanding of the Universe, as they would provide ... -
Detecting the relativistic galaxy bispectrum
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2020)The Fourier galaxy bispectrum is complex, with the imaginary part arising from leading-order relativistic corrections, due to Doppler, gravitational redshift and related lineof-sight effects in redshift space. The detection ... -
Detection of Cross-Correlation between Gravitational Lensing and γ Rays
(American Physical Society, 2020)In recent years, many γ -ray sources have been identified, yet the unresolved component hosts valuable information on the faintest emission. In order to extract it, a cross-correlation with gravitational tracers of ... -
Developing a unified pipeline for large-scale structure data analysis with angular power spectra – II. A case study for magnification bias and radio continuum surveys
(Oxford University Press, 2019)Following on our purpose of developing a unified pipeline for large-scale structure data analysis with angular power spectra, we now include the weak lensing effect of magnification bias on galaxy clustering in a publicly ... -
Development and application of an HDF5 schema for SKA-scale image cube visualization
(Elsevier, 2020)In this paper, we describe an HDF5 schema created to support the efficient visualization of the large image cubes that will be produced by SKA Phase 1 and precursor radio telescopes. We demonstrate how the “HDF5-IDIA” ... -
Development of a 127Xe calibration source for nEXO
(IOP Publishing, 2022)We study a possible calibration technique for the nEXO experiment using a 127Xe electron capture source. nEXO is a next-generation search for neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ) that will use a 5-tonne, monolithic liquid ... -
Direct optimal mapping for 21 cm cosmology: A demonstration with the hydrogen epoch of reionization array
(American Astronomical Society, 2022)Motivated by the desire for wide-field images with well-defined statistical properties for 21 cm cosmology, we implement an optimal mapping pipeline that computes a maximum likelihood estimator for the sky using the ... -
Direct parameter inference from global EoR signal with Bayesian statistics
(Oxford University Press, 2020)In the observation of sky-averaged HI signal from Epoch of Reionization (EoR), model parameter inference can be a computation-intensive work, which makes it hard to perform a direct one-stage model parameter inference by ... -
Direction-dependent corrections in polarimetric radio imaging. Iii. A-to-Z solver— Modeling the full jones antenna aperture illumination pattern
(IOP Publishing, 2022)In this third paper of a series describing direction-dependent corrections for polarimetric radio imaging, we present the the A-to-Z solver methodology to model the full Jones antenna aperture illumination pattern (AIP) ... -
Discovery of a filamentary synchrotron structure connected to the coherent magnetic field in the outer galaxy
(The Astrophysical Journal, 2023)Using data from the Galactic Arecibo L-band Feed Array Continuum Transit Survey, we report the discovery of two previously unidentified, very compressed, thin, and straight polarized filaments approximately centered at ... -
Disentangling non-gaussianity, bias, and general relativistic effects in the galaxy distribution
(American Physical Society, 2012)Local non-Gaussianity, parametrized by f NL , introduces a scale-dependent bias that is strongest at large scales, precisely where general relativistic (GR) effects also become significant. With future data, it should ... -
Disentangling the anisotropic radio sky: Fisher forecasts for 21 cm arrays
(Oxford University Press, 2024)The existence of a radio synchrotron background (RSB) excess is implied by a number of measurements, including excess emission seen by the Absolute Radiometer for Cosmology, Astrophysics, and Diffuse Emission (ARCADE 2) ... -
Disturbed, diffuse, or just missing? A global study of the H I content of Hickson compact groups
(EDP Sciences, 2023)Context. Hickson compact groups (HCGs) are dense configurations of four to ten galaxies, whose H I morphology appears to follow an evolutionary sequence of three phases, with gas initially confined to galaxies, then ...
