Observational biases in Lagrangian reconstructions of cosmic velocity fields
Lagrangian reconstruction of large-scale peculiar velocity fields can be strongly affected by observational biases. We develop a thorough analysis of these systematic effects by relying on specially selected mock catalogues. For the purpose of this paper, we use the Monge-Ampère-Kantorovitch (MAK) reconstruction method, although any other Lagrangian reconstruction method should be sensitive to ...
متن کاملReconstruction of cosmological density and velocity fields in the Lagrangian Zel’dovich Approximation
We present a method for reconstructing cosmological density and velocity fields using the Lagrangian Zel’dovich formalism. The method involves finding the least action solution for straight line particle paths in an evolving density field. Our starting point is the final, evolved density , so that we are in effect carrying out the standard Zel’dovich Approximation based process in reverse. Usin...
متن کاملReconstruction of large-scale peculiar velocity fields
A reconstruction method for recovering the initial conditions of the Universe starting from the present galaxy distribution is presented which guarantees uniqueness of solutions. We show how our method can be used to obtain the peculiar velocities of a large number of galaxies, hence trace galaxies orbits back in time and obtain the entire past dynamical history of the Universe above scales whe...
متن کاملLagrangian statistical model for transport in highly heterogeneous velocity fields.
We define an effective Lagrangian statistical model in phase space (x, t, v) for describing transport in highly heterogeneous velocity fields with complex spatial organizations. The spatial Markovian nature (and temporal non-Markovian nature) of Lagrangian velocities leads to an effective transport description that turns out to be a correlated continuous time random walk. This model correctly c...
متن کاملSome relations between Lagrangian models and synthetic random velocity fields
We propose an alternative interpretation of Markovian transport models based on the well-mixed condition, in terms of the properties of a random velocity field with second order structure functions scaling linearly in the space time increments. This interpretation allows direct association of the drift and noise terms entering the model, with the geometry of the turbulent fluctuations. In parti...
