$J$-factor estimation of Draco, Sculptor and Ursa Minor dwarf spheroidal galaxies with the member/foreground mixture model

Kavli Affiliate: Shigeki Matsumoto | First 5 Authors: Shun-ichi Horigome, Kohei Hayashi, Masahiro Ibe, Miho N. Ishigaki, Shigeki Matsumoto | Summary: Dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) are promising targets of indirect detection experiments searching for dark matter (DM) at present universe. Toward robust prediction for the amount of signal flux originating in DM annihilation inside dSphs, […]

Hall-type algebras for categorical Donaldson-Thomas theories on local surfaces

Kavli Affiliate: Yukinobu Toda | First 5 Authors: Yukinobu Toda, , , , | Summary: We show that the categorified cohomological Hall algebra structures on surfaces constructed by Porta-Sala descend to those on Donaldson-Thomas categories on local surfaces introduced in the author’s previous paper. A similar argument also shows that Pandharipande-Thomas categories on local surfaces […]

Mitigating the impact of fiber assignment on clustering measurements from deep galaxy redshift surveys

Kavli Affiliate: Naoyuki Tamura | First 5 Authors: Tomomi Sunayama, Masahiro Takada, Martin Reinecke, Ryu Makiya, Takahiro Nishimichi | Summary: We examine the impact of fiber assignment on clustering measurements from fiber-fed spectroscopic galaxy surveys. We identify new effects which were absent in previous, relatively shallow galaxy surveys such as Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey . […]
