Percival etal 2001 Institute for Computational Cosmology Baryon oscillations in the power spectrum University of Durham

Oscillations difficult to detect because: • Amplitude is very small • Survey window can smooth over features • Non­linear effects can erase oscillations • Wiggles are in mass, but we observe galaxies (in z­space)

Need to use large cosmological simulations to establish detectability of baryon oscillations.

Institute for Computational Cosmology University of Durham Baryon oscillations

Baryon oscillations are predicted in the P(k) in linear theory:

1. Are they erased by non­linear evolution? 2. Are they also present in the galaxy distribution?
