提出解析模型,精准模拟重子效应如何改变宇宙物质功率谱。

syren-baryon: Analytic emulators for the impact of baryons on the matter power spectrum

  • 用符号回归构建重子影响的解析表达式,依赖波数、红移等参数。
  • 误差与初始条件样本方差相当,小尺度误差略增但整体优于以往数值模拟器。
  • 模型可区分不同重子物理机制,适合宇宙学数据拟合与参数敏感性分析。

重子物理对当前及未来宇宙学巡天探测尺度上的物质分布有显著影响,是分析中的关键系统误差。本文针对一系列物理解释性模型,通过符号回归构建重子存在与否下物质功率谱比值的解析近似表达式,涵盖波数、红移、宇宙学参数及重子反馈参数。基于CAMELS系列流体动力学模拟中的四种子网格重子物理方案(Astrid、IllustrisTNG、SIMBA、Swift-EAGLE)及一种重子化算法,分别获得独立函数。同时提供预测不确定性的量化表达,涵盖重子物理随机性与拟合误差。对流体模拟的逼近误差与初始条件扰动导致的样本方差相当;重子化表达式的均方根误差低于1%,但在小尺度上略有上升。这些表达式在大尺度和高红移下具有正确物理行为。由于其解析形式,可直接分析宇宙学与反馈参数的影响,识别不敏感参数。每类函数对应不同重子物理实现,可用于真实数据中区分模型。所有符号近似代码已公开。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Baryonic physics has a considerable impact on the distribution of matter in our Universe on scales probed by current and future cosmological surveys, acting as a key systematic in such analyses. We seek simple symbolic parametrisations for the impact of baryonic physics on the matter power spectrum for a range of physically motivated models, as a function of wavenumber, redshift, cosmology, and parameters controlling the baryonic feedback. We use symbolic regression to construct analytic approximations for the ratio of the matter power spectrum in the presence of baryons to that without such effects. We obtain separate functions of each of four distinct sub-grid prescriptions of baryonic physics from the CAMELS suite of hydrodynamical simulations (Astrid, IllustrisTNG, SIMBA and Swift-EAGLE) as well as for a baryonification algorithm. We also provide functions which describe the uncertainty on these predictions, due to both the stochastic nature of baryonic physics and the errors on our fits. The error on our approximations to the hydrodynamical simulations is comparable to the sample variance estimated through varying initial conditions, and our baryonification expression has a root mean squared error of better than one percent, although this increases on small scales. These errors are comparable to those of previous numerical emulators for these models. Our expressions are enforced to have the physically correct behaviour on large scales and at high redshift. Due to their analytic form, we are able to directly interpret the impact of varying cosmology and feedback parameters, and we can identify parameters which have little to no effect. Each function is based on a different implementation of baryonic physics, and can therefore be used to discriminate between these models when applied to real data. We provide publicly available code for all symbolic approximations found.
