Cosmic tidal reconstruction in redshift space 后印本

摘要: The gravitational coupling between large- and small-scale density perturbations leads to anisotropic distortions to the local small-scale matter fluctuations. Such local anisotropic distortions can be used to reconstruct the large-scale matter distribution, known as tidal reconstruction. In this paper, we apply the tidal reconstruction methods to simulated galaxies in redshift space. We find that redshift-space distortions lead to anisotropic reconstruction results. While the reconstructed radial modes are more noisy mainly due to the small-scale velocity dispersion, the transverse modes are still reconstructed with high fidelity, well correlated with the original large-scale density modes. The bias of the reconstructed field at large scales shows a simple angular dependence which can be described by a form similar to the linear redshift-space distortion. The noise power spectrum is nearly isotropic and scale-independent on large scales. This makes the reconstructed tides field an ideal tracer for cosmic variance cancellation and multi-tracer analysis and has profound implications for future 21~cm intensity mapping surveys.
