Cosmic nOn-Linearities: Impact of BaRyons on cosmological Inference with modern galaxy surveys

Objective

"Cosmology is entering a new era with revolutionary surveys aimed notably at mapping dark matter and constraining the nature of dark energy. However, the observables are always related to ""visible"" matter (baryons) which is a biased tracer of dark matter. Baryons do not passively follow the assembly of dark matter structures, but they also feedback on the distribution of dark matter, and therefore impact significatively the estimators probing cosmology. If these effects are not precisely taken into account, they induce biases and could potentially engender apparent tensions, some of which are already observed, between the various cosmological surveys and probes. The COLIBRI project proposes to robustly keep under control the effect of baryons on the joint analysis of galaxy lensing and clustering data through i) new theoretical frameworks to capture efficiently the cosmological information content on mildly non-linear scales affected by baryons and ii) novel hydrodynamical simulations accurately resolving baryonic physics inside unprecedentedly large volumes, enabled by innovative simulation techniques and the evolution of computing resources in Europe in the exascale era. These simulations and theoretical schemes will then allow for a robust characterisation of baryons on cosmological scales, in order to interpret current and future large galaxy surveys with enough precision and accuracy. This effort is crucial to make the most out of the rich datasets that will be observed, with in particular the upcoming Euclid’s data releases.

Keywords

Project’s keywords as indicated by the project coordinator. Not to be confused with the EuroSciVoc taxonomy (Fields of science)

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
