The CAMELS project: Expanding the galaxy formation model space with new ASTRID and 28-parameter TNG and SIMBA suites

1 code implementation4 Apr 2023 Yueying Ni, Shy Genel, Daniel Anglés-Alcázar, Francisco Villaescusa-Navarro, Yongseok Jo, Simeon Bird, Tiziana Di Matteo, Rupert Croft, Nianyi Chen, Natalí S. M. de Santi, Matthew Gebhardt, Helen Shao, Shivam Pandey, Lars Hernquist, Romeel Dave

We present CAMELS-ASTRID, the third suite of hydrodynamical simulations in the Cosmology and Astrophysics with MachinE Learning (CAMELS) project, along with new simulation sets that extend the model parameter space based on the previous frameworks of CAMELS-TNG and CAMELS-SIMBA, to provide broader training sets and testing grounds for machine-learning algorithms designed for cosmological studies.

AI-assisted super-resolution cosmological simulations II: Halo substructures, velocities and higher order statistics

no code implementations3 May 2021 Yueying Ni, Yin Li, Patrick Lachance, Rupert A. C. Croft, Tiziana Di Matteo, Simeon Bird, Yu Feng

In this work, we expand and test the capabilities of our recently developed super-resolution (SR) model to generate high-resolution (HR) realizations of the full phase-space matter distribution, including both displacement and velocity, from computationally cheap low-resolution (LR) cosmological N-body simulations.

Automated Measurement of Quasar Redshift with a Gaussian Process

2 code implementations12 Jun 2020 Leah Fauber, Ming-Feng Ho, Simeon Bird, Christian R. Shelton, Roman Garnett, Ishita Korde

Our technique is an extension of an earlier Gaussian process method for detecting damped Lyman-alpha absorbers (DLAs) in quasar spectra with known redshifts.

Cosmic Filaments from Cosmic Strings

1 code implementation28 Apr 2020 M. A. Fernandez, Simeon Bird, Yanou Cui

We show that the largest effect of the cosmic string is an overdensity in the filament distribution around the string wake.

Detecting Multiple DLAs per Spectrum in SDSS DR12 with Gaussian Processes

1 code implementation24 Mar 2020 Ming-Feng Ho, Simeon Bird, Roman Garnett

We present a revised version of our automated technique using Gaussian processes (GPs) to detect Damped Lyman-$\alpha$ absorbers (DLAs) along quasar (QSO) sightlines.

Bayesian emulator optimisation for cosmology: application to the Lyman-alpha forest

no code implementations11 Dec 2018 Keir K. Rogers, Hiranya V. Peiris, Andrew Pontzen, Simeon Bird, Licia Verde, Andreu Font-Ribera

Starting with a Latin hypercube sampling (other schemes with good space-filling properties can be used), we iteratively augment the training set with extra simulations at new parameter positions which balance the need to reduce interpolation error while focussing on regions of high likelihood.

The BAHAMAS project: the CMB--large-scale structure tension and the roles of massive neutrinos and galaxy formation

no code implementations6 Dec 2017 Ian G. McCarthy, Simeon Bird, Joop Schaye, Joachim Harnois-Deraps, Andreea S. Font, Ludovic van Waerbeke

Recent studies have presented evidence for tension between the constraints on Omega_m and sigma_8 from the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and measurements of large-scale structure (LSS).

Detecting Damped Lyman-$α$ Absorbers with Gaussian Processes

4 code implementations14 May 2016 Roman Garnett, Shirley Ho, Simeon Bird, Jeff Schneider

We develop an automated technique for detecting damped Lyman-$\alpha$ absorbers (DLAs) along spectroscopic lines of sight to quasi-stellar objects (QSOs or quasars).

The BAHAMAS project: Calibrated hydrodynamical simulations for large-scale structure cosmology

no code implementations8 Mar 2016 Ian G. McCarthy, Joop Schaye, Simeon Bird, Amandine M. C. Le Brun

The evolution of the large-scale distribution of matter is sensitive to a variety of fundamental parameters that characterise the dark matter, dark energy, and other aspects of our cosmological framework.

Properties of galaxies reproduced by a hydrodynamic simulation

no code implementations6 May 2014 Mark Vogelsberger, Shy Genel, Volker Springel, Paul Torrey, Debora Sijacki, Dandan Xu, Gregory F. Snyder, Simeon Bird, Dylan Nelson, Lars Hernquist

Previous simulations of the growth of cosmic structures have broadly reproduced the 'cosmic web' of galaxies that we see in the Universe, but failed to create a mixed population of elliptical and spiral galaxies due to numerical inaccuracies and incomplete physical models.

Massive Neutrinos and the Non-linear Matter Power Spectrum

no code implementations20 Sep 2011 Simeon Bird, Matteo Viel, Martin G. Haehnelt

We extend the widely used HALOFIT approximation to account for the effect of massive neutrinos on the power spectrum.
