Power Spectrum Tomography with Weak Lensing
Upcoming weak lensing surveys on wide fields will provide the opportunity to reconstruct the structure along the line of sight tomographically by employing photometric redshift information about the source distribution. We define power-spectrum statistics, including cross correlation between redshift bins, quantify the improvement that redshift information can make in cosmological parameter est...
متن کاملPower Spectrum Covariance of Weak Gravitational Lensing
Weak gravitational lensing observations probe the spectrum and evolution of density fluctuations and the cosmological parameters which govern them. At low redshifts, the non-linear gravitational evolution of large scale structure produces a non-Gaussian covariance in the shear power spectrum measurements that affects their translation into cosmological parameters. Using the dark matter halo app...
متن کاملWeak Lensing Reconstruction and Power Spectrum Estimation: Minimum Variance Methods
Large-scale structure distorts the images of background galaxies, which allows one to measure directly the projected distribution of dark matter in the universe and determine its power spectrum. Here we address the question of how to extract this information from the observations. We derive minimum variance estimators for projected density reconstruction and its power spectrum and apply them to...
متن کاملWeak lensing of the cosmic microwave background: Power spectrum covariance
We discuss the non-Gaussian contribution to the power spectrum covariance of cosmic microwave background ~CMB! anisotropies resulting through weak gravitational lensing angular deflections and the correlation of deflections with secondary sources of temperature fluctuations generated by the large scale structure, such as the integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect and the Sunyaev-Zel’dovich effect. This ...
متن کاملNulling tomography with weak gravitational lensing
1550-7998=20 We explore several strategies of eliminating (or nulling) the small-scale information in weak lensing convergence power spectrum measurements in order to protect against undesirable effects, for example, the effects of baryonic cooling and pressure forces on the distribution of large-scale structures. We selectively throw out the small-scale information in the convergence power spe...
