I present an estimator for the angular cross correlation of two tracers of the cosmological large-scale structure that utilizes redshift information to isolate separate physical contributions. The estimator is derived by solving the Limber equation for a reweighting of the foreground tracer that nulls either clustering or lensing contributions to the cross correlation function. Applied to future photometric surveys, the estimator can enhance the measurement of gravitational lensing magnification effects to provide a competitive independent constraint on the dark energy equation of state.
我提出了一种用于宇宙大尺度结构中两个示踪物的角交叉相关的估计器,该估计器利用红移信息来分离不同的物理贡献。该估计器是通过求解 Limber 方程得到的,该方程对前景示踪物进行了重新加权,从而使聚类或透镜贡献对交叉相关函数为零。应用于未来的光度调查,该估计器可以增强对引力透镜放大效应的测量,为暗能量状态方程提供有竞争力的独立约束。
