论文摘要
我们使用最新更新的DLA目录和Planck 2018 CMB镜头收敛场研究了阻尼LY $α$系统(DLAS)及其背景类星体的互相关。我们的测量表明,DLA偏置$ b _ {\ rm dla} $小于$ 3.1 $,对应于$ \ log(m/m_ \ odot h^{ - 1})\ leq 12.3 $,以$ 90 \%$的信心。这些约束与Alonso等人广泛一致。 (2018年)和以前通过DLA与LY $α$森林之间的互相关测量(例如Font-Ribera等人,2012; Perez-Rafols等人,2018年)。此外,我们的结果表明,使用下一代CMB实验具有较高的角度分辨率,可以更精确地测量高红移源的光晕质量。我们分析的基于Python的代码和数据产品可在https://github.com/littlelin1999/cmb-lensingxdla上获得。
We study the cross correlation of damped Ly$α$ systems (DLAs) and their background quasars, using the most updated DLA catalog and the Planck 2018 CMB lensing convergence field. Our measurement suggests that the DLA bias $b_{\rm DLA}$ is smaller than $3.1$, corresponding to $\log(M/M_\odot h^{-1})\leq 12.3$ at a confidence of $90\%$. These constraints are broadly consistent with Alonso et al. (2018) and previous measurements by cross-correlation between DLAs and the Ly$α$ forest (e.g. Font-Ribera et al. 2012; Perez-Rafols et al. 2018). Further, our results demonstrate the potential of obtaining a more precise measurement of the halo mass of high-redshift sources using next generation CMB experiments with a higher angular resolution.
