Cosmic voids are effective cosmological probes to discriminate among competing world models. Their identification is generally based on density or geometry criteria that, because of their very nature, are prone to shot noise. We propose two…
Cosmic voids, the underdense regions of the Large Scale Structure (LSS), provide cosmological information highly complementary to that obtained from overdense regions. In this work, we investigate the constraining power of the void-shear…
