1 Cosmology at LAM Cosmology at LAM A deep and wide look in the Universe Jean-Paul Kneib Laboratoire d’Astrophysique de Marseille

2 Cosmology at LAM  A growing cosmology centre in France (~20 researchers)  Many projects: Observational and Instrumental (for space and ground observatories)  A strong link with particle physicist in Luminy (CPPM+CPT)

3 People Faculty/Researcher: Jean-Paul Kneib Christophe Adami Stéphane Arnouts Stéphane Basa J.-Gabriel Cuby Jean-Michel Deharveng Olivier Le Fevre Vincent Lebrun Roger Malina Alain Mazure Laurence Tresse Marie Treyer (in Caltech) Anne Ealet Charling Tao PhD students Marie-Helene Aumenier Melanie Filiol Pascale Hibon Eric Jullo Sylvain De Latorre Alexie Leauthaud Baptiste Meneux Postdocs Lidia Tasca Jacob Walcher

4 Cosmology Themes Cosmology Themes Deep galaxy surveys: a statistical & multi-wavelength approach on galaxy evolution (GALEX, VLT/VIMOS, HST, Spitzer) Supernovae in the SNLS: constrain on the cosmological parameters Gravitational lensing: Dark matter distribution in bounded structures (clusters, groups & galaxies) The first galaxies in the Universe: finding and studying the most distant galaxies (Ly-alpha search, lensing search) Physics of clusters of galaxies: from low to higher z IGM properties: using distant quasars and spectra of Galex sources.

5 BIG Galaxy Surveys 500-600 spectra in one shot 2D spectra of a single galaxy Red Blue λ Measuring Spectra with VIMOS (built At LAM) ! Aim to get ~100000 spectra VLT VIMOS

6 Deep Galaxy Surveys Deep Galaxy Surveys LAM is involved in many different galaxy surveys aiming at tracing galaxy evolution as a function of time up to z~4 VVDS: The “VIMOS VLT Deep Survey” A I-band magnitude selected survey - shallow I AB <22.5 on 10 sq degrees (on 5 fields): ~30 000 redshifts - deep I AB <24 on 1.2 sq. degree: ~15 000 redshifts

7 N(z), I AB  24 =0.76 VVDS redshift desert Peaks at z~0.8 High redshift tail to z~5 VVDS redshift desert: due to 5500-9300Å observations VVDS: Redshift distribution VVDS: Redshift distribution

8 Comparing Observations & Simulations Comparing Observations & Simulations Constraints on galaxy evolution in the Universe 0.7 < z < 0.8 0.5 < z < 0.6 0.7 < z < 0.8 Galaxy densities Courtesie Marinoni Observations Simulations

9 VVDS: Evolution of galaxy types 2-3x increase with z for early types 5-10x decrease in latest types Spectral types (SED fit to photometry) Early type vs. Latest types LF (2 of 4 types) Zucca et al. astroph/0506393

10 High redshift galaxies 1.5<z<4.5 2 to 6 times more galaxies at z~3 than previously thought ! BHZGs: A missing link between various populations seen so far ? LBGs, DRGs, SMBGs, BzK… Le Fèvre et al., Nature, in press

11 COSMOS Survey Features The Largest Contiguous Area observed with Hubble (cycle 12-13) Large Area: 1.4 x 1.4 deg => Cover largest large scale structures (~2.10 14 Solar Mass) => Rare Objects at high redshift (total of ~2.10 16 galaxies) High Sensitivity ( I ~27 mag, 10  ) and High Resolution (~0.1”) => Morphology of L * galaxies at z < 2 => Strong and weak lensing (probe of DM) Equatorial Field: 10h +02 => Multi- observations from all telescopes Complementary to other Deep Survey (UDF, GOODS, GEMS, CFHTLS, VVDS, DEEP, SDSS …)

19 Cluster Lenses  Cluster of Galaxies are powerful lenses:  Cluster mass distribution  Finding high redshift magnified galaxies  Cosmological constraints (cosmography)
