  • Thermal energy census with the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect of DESI galaxy clusters/groups and its implication on the weak lensing power spectrum

    摘要: We carry out a thermal energy census of hot baryons at $z < 1$, by cross-correlating the \emph{Planck} MILCA y-map with 0.8 million clusters/groups selected from the Yang et.al (2021) catalog. The thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (tSZ) effect around these clusters/groups are reliably obtained, which enables us to make our model constraints based on one-halo (1h) and two-halo (2h) contributions, respectively. (1) The total measurement S/N of the one-halo term is 63. We constrain the $Y$-$M$ relation over the halo mass range of $10^{13}$-$10^{15} M_\odot/h$, and find $Y\propto M^{\alpha}$ with $\alpha= 1.8$ at $z=0.14$ ($\alpha=2.1$ at $z=0.75$). The total thermal energy of gas bound to clusters/groups increases from $0.1\ \rm meV/cm^3$ at $z=0.14$ to $0.22\ \rm meV/cm^3$ at $z=0.75$. (2) The two-halo term is used to constrain the bias-weighted electron pressure $\langle b_yP_e \rangle$. We find that $\langle b_yP_e \rangle$ (in unit of $\rm meV/cm^3$) increases from $0.24\pm 0.02$ at $z=0.14$ to $0.45\pm 0.02$ at $z=0.75$. These results lead to several implications. (i) The hot gas fraction $f_{\rm gas}$ in clusters/groups monotonically increase with halo mass, where $f_{\rm gas}$ of a $10^{14} M_\odot/h$ halo is $\sim 50\%$ ($25\%$) of the cosmic mean at $z=0.14\ (0.75)$. (ii) By comparing the 1h- and 2h-terms, we obtain tentative constraint on the thermal energy of unbound gas. (iii) The above results lead to significant suppression of matter and weak lensing power spectrum at small scales. These implications are important for astrophysics and cosmology, and we will further investigate them with improved data and gas modeling.

  • Detection of pairwise kSZ effect with DESI galaxy clusters and Planck

    摘要: We report a $5\sigma$ detection of the pairwise kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (kSZ) effect, combining galaxy clusters in DESI imaging surveys and the Planck temperature maps. The detection is facilitated by both improvements in the data and in the analysis method. For the data, we adopt the recently released galaxy group catalog (Y20: \cite{yang2020extended}) with $\sim 10^6$ robustly-identified groups, and construct various galaxy cluster samples for the kSZ measurement. The Y20 catalogue also provides estimation of halo mass, which further improves the kSZ measurement by $\sim 10\%$. For the analysis method, we derive an optimal estimator of pairwise kSZ through the maximum likelihood analysis. It also handles potential systematic errors self-consistently. The baseline cluster sample, containing the $1.2\times 10^5$ richest galaxy clusters of typical mass ~$ 10^{14} M_{\odot}/h$ at typical redshift $0.2$-$0.5$, rules out the null hypothesis at $5\sigma$. When fitting with a pairwise kSZ template from simulations, the signal is detected at $4.7\sigma$ and the average optical depth is constrained as $\bar{\tau}_e=(1.66\pm 0.35)\times 10^{-4}$. We perform various internal checks, with different cluster selection criteria, different sky coverage and redshift range, different CMB maps, different filter sizes, different treatments of potential systematics and the covariance matrix. The kSZ effect is consistently detected with $2.5\leq $S/N$\leq 5.6$ and acceptable $\chi^2_{\rm min}$, across a variety of cluster samples. The S/N is limited by both the Planck resolution and the photo-z accuracy, and therefore can be significant improved with DESI spectroscopic redshift information and with other CMB experiments.

  • Reconstructing Images of Two Adjacent Objects through Scattering Medium Using Generative Adversarial Network

    摘要: Reconstruction of image by using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) has been vigorously studied in the last decade. Until now, there have being developed several techniques for imaging of a single object through scattering medium by using neural networks, however how to reconstruct images of more than one object simultaneously seems hard to realize. In this paper, we demonstrate an approach by using generative adversarial network (GAN) to reconstruct images of two adjacent objects through scattering media. We construct an imaging system for imaging of two adjacent objects behind the scattering media. In general, as the light field of two adjacent object images pass through the scattering slab, a speckle pattern is obtained. The designed adversarial network, which is called as YGAN, is employed to reconstruct the images simultaneously. It is shown that based on the trained YGAN, we can reconstruct images of two adjacent objects from one speckle pattern with high fidelity. In addition, we study the influence of the object image types, and the distance between the two adjacent objects on the fidelity of the reconstructed images. Moreover even if another scattering medium is inserted between the two objects, we can also reconstruct the images of two objects from a speckle with high quality. The technique presented in this work can be used for applications in areas of medical image analysis, such as medical image classification, segmentation, and studies of multi-object scattering imaging etc.

  • Recognizing three-dimensional phase images with deep learning

    摘要: Optical phase contains key information for biomedical and astronomical imaging. However, it is often obscured by layers of heterogeneous and scattering media, which render optical phase imaging at different depths an utmost challenge. Limited by the memory effect, current methods for phase imaging in strong scattering media are inapplicable to retrieving phases at different depths. To address this challenge, we developed a speckle three-dimensional reconstruction network (STRN) to recognize phase objects behind scattering media, which circumvents the limitations of memory effect. From the single-shot, reference-free and scanning-free speckle pattern input, STRN distinguishes depth-resolving quantitative phase information with high fidelity. Our results promise broad applications in biomedical tomography and endoscopy.
