The first method called FLens integrates an inpainting concept to invert the shear field with possible gaps, and a multi-scale entropy denoising proce- dure to remove the noise contained in the final reconstruction, that arises mostly from the random intrinsic shape of the galaxies. The second and third methods are based on a model of the density field made of a multi-scale grid of radial basis functions. In one case, the model parameters are computed with a linear inversion involving a singular value decomposition. In the other case, the model parameters are estimated using a Bayesian MCMC optimization implemented in the lensing software Lenstool. Methods are compared on simulated data with varying galaxy density fields. We pay particular attention to the errors estimated with resampling. We find the multi-scale grid model optimized with MCMC to provide the best results, but at high computational cost, especially when considering resampling.

  • Astronomical Distances
    The Act of Measurement I: Astronomical Distances B. F. Riley The act of measurement causes astronomical distances to adopt discrete values. When measured, the distance to the object corresponds through an inverse 5/2 power law – the Quantum/Classical connection – to a sub-Planckian mass scale on a level or sub-level of one or both of two geometric sequences, of common ratio 1/π and 1/e, that descend from the Planck mass and may derive from the geometry of a higher-dimensional spacetime. The distances themselves lie on the levels and sub-levels of two sequences, of common ratio π and e, that ascend from the Planck length. Analyses have been performed of stellar distances, the semi-major axes of the planets and planetary satellites of the Solar System and the distances measured to quasars, galaxies and gamma-ray bursts. 1 Introduction Using Planck units the Quantum/Classical connection, characterised by the equation (1) maps astronomical distances R – in previous papers only the radii of astronomical bodies [1, 2] – onto sub-Planckian mass scales m on the mass levels and sub-levels1 of two geometric sequences that descend from the Planck mass: Sequence 1 of common ratio 1/π and Sequence 3 of common ratio 1/e.2 The sequences may derive from the geometry of a higher-dimensional spacetime [3]. First, we show that several distances associated with the Alpha Centauri system correspond through (1) to the mass scales of principal levels3 in Sequences 1 and 3. We then show that the mass scales corresponding through (1) to the distances from both Alpha Centauri and the Sun to the other stars lie on the levels and sub-levels of Sequences 1 and 3.

  • Glossary of Terms Absorption Line a Dark Line at a Particular Wavelength Superimposed Upon a Bright, Continuous Spectrum
    Glossary of terms absorption line A dark line at a particular wavelength superimposed upon a bright, continuous spectrum. Such a spectral line can be formed when electromag- netic radiation, while travelling on its way to an observer, meets a substance; if that substance can absorb energy at that particular wavelength then the observer sees an absorption line. Compare with emission line. accretion disk A disk of gas or dust orbiting a massive object such as a star, a stellar-mass black hole or an active galactic nucleus. An accretion disk plays an important role in the formation of a planetary system around a young star. An accretion disk around a supermassive black hole is thought to be the key mecha- nism powering an active galactic nucleus. active galactic nucleus (agn) A compact region at the center of a galaxy that emits vast amounts of electromagnetic radiation and fast-moving jets of particles; an agn can outshine the rest of the galaxy despite being hardly larger in volume than the Solar System. Various classes of agn exist, including quasars and Seyfert galaxies, but in each case the energy is believed to be generated as matter accretes onto a supermassive black hole. adaptive optics A technique used by large ground-based optical telescopes to remove the blurring affects caused by Earth’s atmosphere. Light from a guide star is used as a calibration source; a complicated system of software and hardware then deforms a small mirror to correct for atmospheric distortions. The mirror shape changes more quickly than the atmosphere itself fluctuates.

  • X-Ray Calibration of SZ Scaling Relations with the ACCEPT
    Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc. 000, 1–10 (2011) Printed 11 October 2018 (MN LATEX style file v2.2) X-ray calibration of SZ scaling relations with the ACCEPT catalogue of galaxy clusters observed by Chandra B. Comis1⋆, M. De Petris1, A. Conte1, L. Lamagna1 and S. De Gregori1 1Sapienza University of Rome, Department of Physics, P.le A. Moro, 2 Rome, Italy Accepted for publication in MNRAS ABSTRACT We explore the scaling relation between the flux of the Sunyaev-Zel’dovich (SZ) ef- fect and the total mass of galaxy clusters using already reduced Chandra X-ray data present in the ACCEPT (Archive of Chandra Cluster Entropy Profile Tables) cata- logue. The analysis is conducted over a sample of 226 objects, examining the relatively small scale corresponding to a cluster overdensity equal to 2500 times the critical density of the background universe, at which the total masses have been calculated exploiting the hydrostatic equilibrium hypothesis. Core entropy (K0) is strongly corre- lated with the central cooling time, and is therefore used to identify cooling-core (CC) objects in our sample. Our results confirm the self-similarity of the scaling relation between the integrated Comptonization parameter (Y ) and the cluster mass, for both CC and NCC (non-cooling-core) clusters. The consistency of our calibration with re- cent ones has been checked, with further support for Y as a good mass proxy. We also investigate the robustness of the constant gas fraction assumption, for fixed overden- sity, and of the YX proxy (Kravtsov et al. 2007) considering CC and NCC clusters, again sorted on K0 from our sample.

  • EBL with GRB and Blazars Joel Primack with Rudy Gilmore, Alberto Dominguez, & Rachel Somerville
    EBL with GRB and Blazars Joel Primack with Rudy Gilmore, Alberto Dominguez, & Rachel Somerville Thursday, March 25, 2010 The EBL is very difficult to observe directly because of foregrounds, especially the zodiacal light. Reliable lower limits are obtained by integrating the light from observed galaxies. The best upper limits come from (non-) attenuation of gamma rays from distant blazars, but these are uncertain because of the unknown emitted spectrum of these blazars. This talk concerns both the optical-IR EBL relevant to attenuation of TeV gamma rays, and also the UV EBL relevant to attenuation of gamma rays from very distant sources observed by Fermi and low-threshold ground- based ACTs. log dNγ/dE Just as IR light penetrates dust better than shorter wavelengths, so lower energy gamma rays penetrate the EBL better than higher energy, resulting in a softer observed gamma- ray spectrum from more distant sources. log E Thursday, March 25, 2010 PILLAR OF STAR BIRTH Carina Nebula in UV Visible Light Thursday, March 25, 2010 PILLAR OF STAR BIRTH Carina Nebula in IR Light Longer wavelength light penetrates the dust better Longer wavelength gamma rays also penetrate the EBL better Thursday, March 25, 2010 Gamma Ray Attenuation due to γγ e+e- If we know the intrinsic spectrum, we can infer the optical depth (E,z) from the observed spectrum. In -Γ practice, we assume that dN/dE|int is not harder than E with Γ = 1.5, since local sources have Γ ≥ 2.
