Over the past decade, the kinetic SZ effect has emerged as a probe of the distribution of baryons and the large-scale velocity field in the late Universe. Of the several ways to detect it, the so-called Projected-Fields kSZ estimator has the promising characteristic of not being limited to spectroscopic samples of galaxies. The original theoretical formulation of this estimator included...
Extracting the kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (kSZ) effect—the Compton scattering of CMB photons off moving electrons—requires cleaning of other sky components. In this work, we use large-scale structure (LSS) tracers that are correlated with both the cosmic infrared background (CIB) and thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (tSZ) signal, but whose two-point correlations with the kSZ signal vanish on small...
The South Pole Telescope (SPT) is observing the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies with arcminute resolution using its state-of-the-art camera (SPT-3G). Upcoming constraints on cosmological constraints from power spectrum analyses with the 2019/2020 data will be at least as tight as Planck’s ones, while remaining independent from the satellite experiment, thus allowing to test the...
Local primordial non-Gaussianity, parametrized by $f_{NL}^{\mathrm{loc}}$, induces a characteristic scale dependence in the large-scale bias of halos. This scale dependence is a promising path to constrain multi-field inflation theories, which predict non-zero $f_{NL}^{\mathrm{loc}}$. We use the cosmic infrared background (CIB), measured by $\textit{Planck}$, which is sourced by thermal...
The Three Hundreds project consists of a 324 regions sample simulated with full-physics hydrodynamical re-simulations. They have been produced starting from the dark-matter-only MultiDark Simulations [MDPL2 8], which consists in a 1 h$^{-1}$ Gpc cube containing 3840$^3$ dark matter (DM) particles with a mass of $1.5 \times 10^9$ h$^{-1}$ M$_\odot$ each (LR DMONLY). This produces 324...
Filaments connecting galaxy clusters in the Cosmic Web are thought to quantify, or to simply have an impact on several intrinsic and observational properties of the halos. From the gas filamentary structure of the 324 simulated regions of The Three Hundred project extracted with the DisPerSE filament finder at z=0, we estimate the connectivity, the number of filaments to which clusters are...
We develop a machine learning algorithm that infers the radial profiles of total and gas mass of galaxy clusters given thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect maps. The architecture is composed of a combination of an autoencoder and a random forest. The first is used to extract the information from the maps, while the second performs the final estimation of the radial mass profiles. This ML...
