摘要： Constraints on the linear growth rate, $f\sigma_8$, using small scale redshift space distortion measurements have a significant statistical advantage over those made on large scales. However, these measurements need to carefully disentangle the linear and non-linear information when interpreting redshift space distortions in terms of $f\sigma_8$. It is particularly important to do this given that some previous measurements found a significant deviation from the expectation based on the $\Lambda$CDM model constrained by Planck CMB data. We construct a new emulator-based model for small scale galaxy clustering with scaling parameters for both the linear and non-linear velocities of galaxies, allowing us to isolate the linear growth rate. We train the emulator using simulations from the AbacusCosmos suite, and apply it to data from the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) luminous red galaxy sample. We obtain a value of $f\sigma_8(z=0.737)=0.368\pm0.041$, in 2.3-$\sigma$ tension with the Planck 2018 $\Lambda$CDM expectation, and find less dependence on the minimum measurement scale than previous analyses.

摘要： The small-scale linear information in galaxy samples typically lost during non-linear growth can be restored to a certain level by the density field reconstruction, which has been demonstrated for improving the precision of the baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) measurements. As proposed in the literature, a joint analysis of the power spectrum before and after the reconstruction enables an efficient extraction of information carried by high-order statistics. However, the statistics of the post#2;reconstruction density field are difficult to model. In this work, we circumvent this issue by developing an accurate emulator for the pre-reconstructed, post-reconstructed, and cross power spectra (Ppre, Ppost, Pcross) up to k = 0.5 h Mpc1 based on the Dark Quest N-body simulations. The accuracy of the emulator is at percent level, namely, the error of the emulated monopole and quadrupole of the power spectra is less than 1% and 5% of the ground truth, respectively. A fit to an example power spectra using the emulator shows that the constraints on cosmological parameters get largely improved using Ppre+Ppost+Pcross with kmax = 0.25 h Mpc1 , compared to that derived from Ppre alone, namely, the constraints on (Ωm, H0, 8) are tightened by 41% 55%, and the uncertainties of the derived BAO and RSD parameters (, , f8) shrink by 28% 54%, respectively. This highlights the complementarity among Ppre, Ppost and Pcross, which demonstrates the efficiency and practicability of a joint Ppre, Ppost and Pcross analysis for cosmological implications.
