Compressing the cosmological information in one-dimensional correlations of the Lyman-$α$ forest

Kavli Affiliate: Nickolay Y. Gnedin | First 5 Authors: Christian Pedersen, Andreu Font-Ribera, Nickolay Y. Gnedin, , | Summary: Observations of the Lyman-$alpha$ (Ly$alpha$) forest from spectroscopic surveys such as BOSS/eBOSS, or the ongoing DESI, offer a unique window to study the growth of structure on megaparsec scales. Interpretation of these measurements is a complicated […]

Local and Covariant Flow Relations for OPE Coefficients in Lorentzian Spacetimes

Kavli Affiliate: Robert M. Wald | First 5 Authors: Mark G. Klehfoth, Robert M. Wald, , , | Summary: For Euclidean quantum field theories, Holland and Hollands have shown operator product expansion (OPE) coefficients satisfy "flow equations": For interaction parameter $lambda$, the partial derivative of any OPE coefficient with respect to $lambda$ is given by […]

Noise2Astro: Astronomical Image Denoising With Self-Supervised NeuralNetworks

Kavli Affiliate: Brian Nord | First 5 Authors: Yunchong Zhang, Brian Nord, Amanda Pagul, Michael Lepori, | Summary: In observational astronomy, noise obscures signals of interest. Large-scale astronomical surveys are growing in size and complexity, which will produce more data and increase the workload of data processing. Developing automated tools, such as convolutional neural networks […]
