3 Outline Cluster mass function Number counts and Covariance Mass-Observable relation Self-Calibration Results
4 Mass function Cluster mass-function exponentially sensitive to linear density perturbations " dn d ln M = 0.3 " m M d ln# $1 d ln M exp $ln# $ [ ] Jenkins et al. 2001!! " Cluster number counts sensitive to DE parameters.
5 Number Density Number density in bin i (z, M, angle, etc...) n i = where obs M i+1 " d ln M obs " d ln M dn d ln M p(m obs M) M i obs!! p(m obs M) = 1 2 2"# ln M (z) + % ln M obs $ ln M $ ln M bias ( (z) exp - $ - ' 2 & 2# ln M (z) *, ) /
6 Number Counts Volume element Number counts dv = D 2 A (z) H(z) dzd"! where phot z i+1 N i = "# $ dz phot dz D A! $ H n i(z)p(z phot p(z phot z) = z i phot 2 z) + % 1 2"# 2 z (z) exp $ z phot $ z $ z bias ( - (z) - ' & 2# 2 z (z) *, ) /
7 Sample Covariance S ij = (N i " N i )(N j " N j )! = b i b j n in j where the window W i (k) the photo-z distribution. $ d 3 k (2#) W * 3 i (k)w j (k)p(k) is convolved with!
8 Mass-Observable Relation: Redshift Evolution Arbitrary (2 mass parameters per bin) Mean relation: Power law M(z i ) " O = e A (1+ z i ) n M $ fid # O fid Assume is known. Scatter: Polynomial (cubic)!! p 2 " ln M 2 (z i ) = " ln M 3 # k= 0 % ' & (z i ) fid + B k z i k p
9 Uncertainties Mass and redshift uncertainties change the observed number counts and are degenerate with DE. Lima & Hu 2004
10 Self-Calibration Self-calibration of mass-observable parameters: consistency between number counts and 1) clustering Majumdar & Mohr 2004; Lima & Hu ) shape of observed mass function Hu 2003; Lima & Hu ) follow up Majumdar & Mohr 2003, 2004
11 Self-Calibration Clustering: Requiring consistency between counts and sample variance breaks degeneracy between shifts in mass and DE variations.
12 Self-Calibration Shape: Measuring number counts as a function of mass provides observed mass function. Consistency breaks degeneracy of DE with scatter in mass-observable. Lima & Hu 2005
13 Previous studies Fixed mass-observable. No z scatter. Priored z bias. Counts only Huterer et al. 2004
14 Number Counts SPT like 4000 deg 2 "z = 0.1 bins WMAP 1yr
15 Number Counts SPT like 4000 deg 2 "z = 0.1 bins WMAP 1yr WMAP 3yr (4 x less!)
16 Baseline constraints Fixed Mass, Redshifts. WMAP 1yr
17 Baseline constraints Fixed Mass, Redshifts. WMAP 1yr WMAP 3yr
18 Cluster Photo-z s Huan Lin s catalog. Template Fitting photo-z s
19 Cluster Photo-zs Huan Lin s catalog. Template Fitting photo-z s
20 Constraints SPT like, 4000 deg 2, z max = 2, "z = 0.1 M th = solar masses Flat universe WMAP! 3yr cosmology!! Other cosmological parameters (not DE): priors of ~1% Constant w
21 Fixed Mass-Observable Fixed z bias Fixed z scatter Counts
22 Fixed Mass-Observable Priored z bias Priored z scatter Counts
23 Fixed Mass-Observable: Degradation in w
24 Self-Calibration: Mean + Scatter in Mass-Observable Fixed z bias Fixed z scatter Fixed M bias Fixed M scatter Counts
25 Self-Calibration: Mean + Scatter in Mass-Observable Fixed z bias Fixed z scatter Power Law M bias Cubic M scatter Counts + Clustering
26 Self-Calibration: Mean + Scatter in Mass-Observable Fixed z bias Fixed z scatter Power Law M bias Cubic M scatter Counts + Clustering + Shape
27 Self-Calibration: Mean + Scatter in Mass-Observable Priored z bias Priored z scatter Power Law M bias Cubic M scatter Counts + Clustering + Shape
28 Mean + Scatter in Mass-Observable: Degradation in w
29 Another case: n fixed Mean relation: Power law M(z i ) " O = e A (1+ z i ) n M $ fid # O fid % ' & p Assume Assume! p n fixed. fixed.!!
30 Another case: n fixed Fixed z bias Fixed z scatter Power Law M bias Cubic M scatter Counts + Clustering + Shape
31 Another case: n fixed Fixed z bias Fixed z scatter Power Law M bias Cubic M scatter Counts + Clustering + Shape + n fixed
32 Another case: n fixed Priored z bias Priored z scatter Power Law M bias Cubic M scatter Counts + Clustering + Shape + n fixed
33 Another case: n fixed
34 Summary WMAP 3yr: 4 times less clusters ~ 40% degradation in baseline. Up to ~ 100% in self-calibration. Photo-z requirements: ~ for z bias, ~ 0.05 for z scatter. Future: - Improve uncertainty in z bias and scatter requirement to be a function of z. - Calculations with CatSim1 cluster catalog.
