We use a galaxy sample derived from the DECaLS DR9 to measure the Baryonic Acoustic Oscillations (BAO). The magnitude-limited sample consists of 10.6 million galaxies in an area of 4974 deg$^2$ over the redshift range of [0.6, 1]. A key…

Recent publications claim that there is no convincing evidence for measurements of the baryonic acoustic (BAO) feature in galaxy samples using either monopole or radial information. Different claims seem contradictory: data is either not…
Feedback processes from baryons are expected to strongly affect weak-lensing observables of current and future cosmological surveys. In this paper we present a new parametrisation of halo profiles based on gas, stellar, and dark matter…

A shift of the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) scale to smaller values than predicted by linear theory was observed in simulations. In this paper, we try to provide an intuitive physical understanding of why this shift occurs, explaining…
