چکیده
Galaxy clusters and cosmic voids, the most extreme objects of our Universe in terms mass size, trace two opposite sides large-scale matter density field. By studying their abundance as a function radius, respectively, i.e. halo (HMF) void size (VSF), it is possible to achieve fundamental constraints on cosmological model. While HMF has already been extensively exploited providing robust main model parameters (e.g. $\Omega_{\rm m}$, $\sigma_8$ $S_8$), VSF still emerging viable effective probe. Given expected complementarity these statistics, this work we aim at estimating costraining power deriving from combination. To end, exploit realistic mock samples galaxy voids extracted state-of-the-art large hydrodynamical simulations, redshift range $0.2 \leq z 1$. We perform an accurate calibration free models, needed take into account differences between types tracers used those considered previous literature analyses. Then, obtain m}$ by performing Bayesian analysis. find that cluster counts represent powerful independent complementary probes test framework. In particular, constraining improves drastically with contribution, increasing $S_8$ constraint precision factor about 60%.

Galaxy number counts and Fractal correlations
– We report the correlation analysis of various redshift surveys which shows that the available data are consistent with each other and manifest fractal correlations (with dimension D ≃ 2) up to the present observational limits (≈ 150hMpc) without any tendency towards homogenization. This result points to a new interpretation of the number counts that represents the main subject of this letter....
متن کاملGalaxy Cluster Abundance Evolution and Cosmological Parameters
We use the observed evolution of the galaxy cluster X-ray integral temperature distribution function between z = 0.05 and z = 0.32 in an attempt to constrain the value of the density parameter, Ω0, for both open and spatially-flat universes. We conclude that when all the most important sources of possible error, both in the observational data and in the theoretical modelling, are taken into acc...
متن کاملSubmillimeter Galaxy Number Counts and Magnification by Galaxy Clusters
We present an analytical model which reproduces measured galaxy number counts from surveys in the wavelength range of 500 μm to 2 mm. The model involves a single high-redshift galaxy population with a Schechter luminosity function which has been gravitationally lensed by galaxy clusters in the mass range 10 to 10M⊙. This simple model reproduces both the low flux and the high flux end of the num...
متن کاملPersistent fluctuations in galaxy number counts
– Fractal properties are usually characterized by means of various statistical tools which deal with spatial average quantities. Here we focus on the determination of fluctuations around the average counts and we develop a test for the study of galaxy distribution both in redshift and magnitude space. Fluctuations in the counts of galaxies, in a fractal distribution, are of the same order of th...
متن کاملCosmological Signatures in Galaxy Cluster Structures
We study substructure in X-ray clusters of galaxies by application of a set of statistics, the power ratios of Buote & Tsai (1995), to a simulated cluster and in the context of a simple analytic model for merger events. The simulation involves a newly developed code for performing high resolution gravity and gas dynamics simulations in cosmological volumes. Thesis Supervisor: Edmund Bertschinge...
