ABSTRACT We use the GALFORM semi-analytical galaxy formation model implemented in Planck Millennium N-body simulation to build a mock catalogue on an observer’s past lightcone. The mass resolution of this is almost order magnitude better than previous simulations used for purpose, allowing us probe fainter galaxies and hence more complete at low redshifts. high time cadence outputs allows make improved calculations properties positions mock. test predictions against Physics Accelerating...
ABSTRACT The physics of the accelerating Universe (PAU) camera is an optical narrow band and broad imaging instrument mounted at prime focus William Herschel Telescope. We describe image calibration procedure PAU survey data. rely on external photometric catalogue to calibrate our data using stars that have been observed by both sets. fit stellar templates broad-band photometry Sloan Digital Sky Survey synthesize we compare PAUS determine their calibration. Consequently, are in AB system as...
We present the first measurements of projected clustering and intrinsic alignments (IA) galaxies observed by Physics Accelerating Universe Survey (PAUS). With photometry in 40 narrow optical passbands ($450\rm{nm}-850\rm{nm}$), quality photometric redshift estimation is $\sigma_{z} \sim 0.01(1 + z)$ for $19\,\rm{deg}^{2}$ Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Legacy (CFHTLS) W3 field, allowing us to measure 3D IA flux-limited, faint ($i < 22.5$) out $z\sim0.8$. To two-point statistics, we...
The D4000 spectral break index is one of the most important features in visible spectrum, as it a proxy for stellar ages and also used galaxy classification. However, its direct measurement has always been reserved to spectroscopy. Here, we present general method directly measure with narrow-band (NB) photometry; validated using realistic simulations, then evaluated PAUS NBs, cross-matched VIPERS spectra ($i_{\rm AB} < 22.5$, $0.562 z 0.967$). We reconstruct SED-fitting code CIGALE; use NBs...
ABSTRACT PAUCam is an innovative optical narrow-band imager mounted at the William Herschel Telescope built for Physics of Accelerating Universe Survey (PAUS). Its set 40 filters results in images that are complex to calibrate, with specific instrumental signatures cannot be processed traditional data reduction techniques. In this paper, we present two pipelines developed by PAUS management team objective producing science-ready catalogues from uncalibrated raw images. The Nightly pipeline...
ABSTRACT Galaxy pairs constitute the initial building blocks of galaxy evolution, which is driven through merger events and interactions. Thus, analysis these systems can be valuable in understanding evolution studying structure formation. In this work, we present a new publicly available catalogue close identified using photometric redshifts provided by Physics Accelerating Universe Survey (PAUS). To efficiently detect them, take advantage high-precision photo−z (σ68 &lt; 0.02) apply an...

We present the Lyman-$\alpha$ (Ly$\alpha$) and ultraviolet (UV) luminosity function (LF), in bins of redshift, quasars selected Physics Accelerating Universe Survey (PAUS). A sample 915 objects was at $2.7<z<5.3$ within an effective area $\sim 36$ deg$^2$ observed 40 narrow-band filters (NB; FWHM 120$ \r{A}). cover intermediate-bright regime LF $(10^{43.5}<(L_{{\rm Ly}\alpha}/{\rm erg\,s}^{-1})<10^{45.5}$; $-29<M_{\rm UV}<-24)$. The continuous wavelength coverage PAUS NB set allows a very...
