1 The rise of galaxy surveys and mocks (DESI progress and challenges) Shaun Cole Institute for Computational Cosmology, Durham University, UK
2 Mock Santiago Welcome to Mock Santiago The goal of this workshop is to bring together leading researchers in clustering and galaxy formation studies and key representatives from major future galaxy surveys to promote discussions and collaborations on how to produce realistic and useful mock galaxy catalogues needed to fully exploit the scientific outcome of those surveys. Springel et al
3 Introduction The importance of survey astronomy The growing importance of survey mocks Future challenges Simulating the DESI surveys Application to fibre allocation mitigation Summary 3
4 The value of galaxy surveys Traditionally they have been what has enabled us to characterise the properties of our local universe The galaxy luminosity function The galaxy correlation function Galaxy clusters and Cosmic Web Density-Morphology and other environmental dependencies As they have grown in volume to encompass truly representative volumes with increasing statistical power they have provided constraints on the cosmological model - Correlation function break Ωh - BAO H(z) and D(z) Dark Energy (w ) 4

16 Many Approaches HOD (with N-body or 2LPT/COLA/PTHALOS ) SHAM Semi-analytic models Hydrodynamic simulations As well as galaxy catalogues we need to mock QSO catalogues and probes of the Lyman-α forest. We also need them for in a variety of roles: Survey and code development Quantifying systematic and statistical errors Interpreting results Many methods have contributions to make as these needs require different balances between: realism vs. speed vs. physics
17 Mock Santiago Outlook Looking forward to hearing about the developments of many techniques for current an future surveys. The challenges are many due to the large volumes that will be probed and the accuracy that is being sought. 17

22 The Bright Galaxy Survey (BGS) 22
23 From the MXXL to mock DESI BGS MXXL: Angulo et al (2012) have created (FoF) halo and (subfind) subhalo catalogues at each of the 64 snapshots of the particle 3 Gpc/h MXXL ΛCDM simulation. They defined subhalo merger trees by identifying the main descendant of each subhalo. The catalogue contains all halos and subhalos with more than 20 particles or equivalently 1.2x10 11 M ʘ /h. 23
24 Interpolating (sub)halo positions Alex Smith (in preparation) Interpolated paths between snapshots 59 and 61 compared to true positions at 60. Halo centres cubic interpolation Generally good but occasional in consistencies Subhalo centres linear in radius and position angle Not relevant for HOD mock, but maybe be useful for other purposes follows method in Merson et al
25 Lightcone crossing Observer location chosen at random. Loop over consecutive pairs of snapshots at z start and z end. Identify haloes that cross the observer s past lightcone (z 1 <z end <z 2 ). Interpolate path to find exact crossing time. 25
26 Halo mass function MXXL halo evolving mass function described well by Sheth-Tormen analytic fit. 26
27 Interpolating halo mass If halo masses are not interpolated between snapshots then the cumulative number density of massive haloes has redshift steps 27
28 Halo Lightcone Will be made public to allow others to populate it with galaxies as they see fit. 28
29 Populating using HOD Parameterized Halo Occupation Distributions can be used place galaxies inside halos. E.g following Zehavi et al (2011) 29
30 Populating using HOD Zheng Zheng and Idit Zehavi (2011) have derived HOD fits to the abundance and clustering of various SDSS volume limited samples. They repeated their fits using the MXXL cosmology and their standard assumptions regarding halo abundance, bias and profiles. 30
31 Populating using HOD Zheng s fit values and Alex s interpolations 31
32 Crossing HODs Skibba et al (2006) describe how to assign luminosities to haloes such that they are consistent with a nested set of HOD curves. They implemented this in small simulation for HOD curves with a sharp central galaxy step, i.e. no scatter in L cen M halo relation. L P( L M ) dl Ncent ( M ) 32

39 Galaxy Lightcone r<19.5 mag (part of an all sky mock) Red sequence galaxies 39
40 Galaxy Lightcone r<19.5 mag (part of an all sky mock) Blue cloud galaxies 40
41 Clustering dependence on colour Lines: Red galaxies All galaxies Blue Galaxies Points: SDSS data Zehavi et al
42 HOD Evolution (work in progress) Match BGS evolution of LF and clustering. Many possible ways to evolve the HOD. Start simple. Fixed shape at fixed number density, n. Slide LF sideways by factor f to achieve target n. Evolving LF Defines f at n and z. LF maps n L at each z. Evolving MF 42
43 HOD Evolution (work in progress) With these assumptions at fixed number density all HOD characteristic masses (M 1, M min, M 0 ) scale as f while the other shape parameters (α and σ) are fixed. Inferred evolution of HOD parameters stronger than found in Semi-analytic models Contreras et al in prep. (see Idit Zehavi s talk) Clustering to be tested against GAMA data (Farrow et al 2015) 43
44 Application to Fibre Incompleteness Galaxies not assigned fibres have biased clustering and N(z) 44
45 w(θ) Two part correction Large scale correction Weight by binned incompleteness Corrects large scales well (BAO easy!) Small scale correction Hawkins, Maddox et al 2002 Corrects small scales while leaving large scales untouched, but further testing e.g. of RSD required. θ Husni Almoubayyed (summer project) 45
46 Summary Mocks are playing an increasingly vital role in survey astronomy. The competing demands of variety (galaxies, quasars, Lyman- forest, lensing), high fidelity, large volume and large number implies development is needed in a variety of different approaches. Interesting and timely meeting Presented MXXL halo lightcone catalogue Developed the Skibba-Sheth method of realizing a set of HODs to: Flexible 5 parameter HOD (scatter in L central M halo relation) Including evolution DESI BGS catalogues will be made public 46

56 Science Readiness Ongoing activities Evaluating the suitability of the photometry to deliver the target selection Photometric depth Star-galaxy separation Uniformity Developing the survey strategy to deliver early science Build up area or build up completeness Developing software to analyse the data to achieve stated goals Recover BAO scale to required accuracy Extract growth rate from redshift space distortions Many of the later tasks need realistic mock catalogues 60
57 Fibre Incompleteness The DESI focal plane is populated by 5000 fibres spaced by 10.4mm (160 ). Each fibre can patrol a 12mm diameter circle and come within 1mm of its neighbour. These constraints coupled with the choice of overlapping field centres determine which galaxies can be targeted 61

61 Targeted Galaxies 65 Husni Almoubayyed
62 Biased Clustering The angular correlation function of the missed objects has distinctive features reflecting the size and spacing of the DESI field of view. Note that the redshift distribution of the missed objects is biased to lower redshifts. 66
63 Large Scale Correction One can define weights using the completeness in cells 67
64 Large Scale Correction Weighting by cells (either upweighting the data or down weighting the randoms works accurately on BAO scales, but needs larger and more mocks to test to the precision required for the BAO measurements. 68
65 Combined Corrections Combining both the cell wise correction and the small scale Hawkins-Maddox. Within 5% on all scales To Do: 1) More/larger mocks to determine if the residual is systematic 2) Extend to the case where galaxies are (FKP) weighted with weight 1 1 n ( z) P Here the issue is the target w(ѳ) 69
66 Small scale correction We have tried combine the cell weight with a small scale weight as described in Hawkins, Maddox et al (2002). By construction it perfectly corrects the angular clustering. It would perfectly correct the 3D clustering if for pairs of fixed angular separation the distribution of line-of-sight separations was independent of whether pairs are assigned fibres. 70
