7 Euclid Surveys Simultaneous (i) visible imaging (ii) NIR photometry (iii) NIR spectroscopy 15,000 square degrees 40 million redshifts, 2 billion images Median redshift z 1 PSF FWHM ~0.18 >1000 peoples, >10 countries Euclid in a nutshell Euclid satellite L. Amendola, Vitoria, arxiv Red Book
8 Euclid s goals Nature of dark energy (DE), test of gravity (MG) and of dark matter (DM) Distinguish DE, MG, DM effects on the geometry of the Universe: Weak Lensing (WL), Galaxy Clustering (GC), on structure formation: WL, Redshift-Space Distortion, Clusters of Galaxies controlling systematic residuals to a very high level of accuracy. (elaboration from a talk by Y. Mellier) L. Amendola, Vitoria,
9 Quantifying precision Parameterising our ignorance: DE equation of state: P/ρ = w and w(a) = w p + w a (a p -a) What precision should we aim to? From Euclid data alone, get FoM=1/(Dw a x Dw p ) > 400: if data consistent with Λ, and FoM > 400 then : Λ is favoured with odds of more than 100:1 = a decisive statistical evidence. (elaboration from a talk by Y. Mellier) L. Amendola, Vitoria,

22 The Lens equation Propagation of light in a given metric General equations of motion
23 The Lens equation x 2 x 1 r Equations of motion on the plane in the linearly perturbed metric (see my book) lensing potential
24 The distortion matrix x i = rθ i Mapping of the position in the source plane to the observed position in the lens plane
25 The distortion matrix = κ γ 1 γ 2 γ 2 γ 1 = magn +shear
26 The distortion matrix Magnification Shear
27 An elliptical distortion
28 Measuring the shear intensity of light as a function of angles on the sky quadrupole ellipticity it turns out
29 The power spectrum of ellipticity Now, the ellipticity depends linearly on γ 1,2. These depend linearly on the metric potential Ψ,Φ. The metric potential depend linearly on the matter density contrast along the line of sight. Therefore, the power spectrum of the ellipticity depends linearly on the power spectrum of matter!
30 It turns out The power spectrum of ellipticity depends linearly on the power spectrum of (dark+luminous) matter! depends only on background quantities, i.e., on distances, H(z), and on the source distribution matter power spectrum

69 2 nd order perturbed Lagrangians An elegant way to derive the perturbation equations is to write down the perturbed Lagrangian at second order: when you differentiate it, you get first order perturbation equations! For instance standard EH Lagrangian gives in Minkowski Definition Propagating degree of freedom: a field with two time derivatives in the 2 nd order Lagrangian, once all the constraints have been taken into account L. Amendola, Vitoria,
70 Identifying the degrees of freedom Classifying theories by their dof Standard gravity: no scalar degree of freedom, 2 tensor dofs Horndeski: one scalar dof, 2 tensor dofs Massive grav: one scalar dof, 2+2 tensor dofs Bimetric models: one scalar dof, 2 vector dofs, 2+2 tensor dofs 2 nd order pert.

81 Ghost-free Bigravity The first problem was solved by Vainshtein (1972): there exists a radius below which the linear theory cannot be applied; For the Sun, this radius is larger than the solar system!
