abstract

Using mean relative peculiar velocity measurements for pairs of galaxies, we estimate the cosmological density parameter $\Omega_m$ and the amplitude of density fluctuations $\sigma_8$. Our results suggest that our statistic is a robust and reproducible measure of the mean pairwise velocity and thereby the $\Omega_m$ parameter. We get $\Omega_m = 0.30^{+0.17}_{-0.07}$ and $\sigma_8 = 1.13^{+0.22}_{-0.23}$. These estimates do not depend on prior assumptions on the adiabaticity of the initial density fluctuations, the ionization history, or the values of other cosmological parameters.

  1. Impact of light sterile neutrinos on cosmological large scale structure

    astro-ph.CO 2025-01 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Sterile neutrinos suppress the matter power spectrum and halo mass and velocity functions while increasing halo pairwise infall velocities, with effects up to tens of percent for the most massive cases studied.
