暗能量巡天超新星计划:超新星测光分类引起的宇宙学偏差

宇宙学与河外天体物理 2022-06-15 v1

摘要

对测光识别的 Ia 型超新星(SNe Ia)样本的宇宙学分析依赖于理解来自核坍缩与特殊 SN Ia 事件的‘污染’效应。我们在最先进的测光识别 SN Ia 样本模拟上采用严格分析,确定了暗能量巡天(DES)5 年 SN 样本中此类‘非 Ia’污染导致的宇宙学偏差。作为分析的一部分,我们在 DES 模拟上测试了基于循环神经网络的测光 SN 分类器 SuperNNova 的性能。根据模拟数据样本与训练样本中非 Ia SN 模型的选择,污染率在 0.8-3.5% 之间,分类效率为 97.7-99.5%。利用应用于多物种的贝叶斯估计(BEAMS)框架及其扩展‘带偏差修正的 BEAMS’(BBC),我们生成了对污染边缘化并修正选择效应的红移分箱哈勃图,并用其约束暗能量状态方程 ww。假设平坦宇宙且 ΩM\Omega_M 的高斯先验为 0.311±0.0100.311\pm0.010,我们表明当使用 SuperNNova 并在模拟中考虑广泛的非 Ia SN 模型时,ww 上的偏差 <0.008<0.008。与污染相关的系统不确定度估计至多 σw,syst=0.004\sigma_{w, \mathrm{syst}}=0.004。这相较于 DES-SN 样本预期的统计不确定度 σw,stat=0.039\sigma_{w,\mathrm{stat}}=0.039 更小,从而表明污染并非我们分析中的限制不确定度。我们还测量了污染在 w0w_0waw_a(假设平坦宇宙)上的偏差,发现 w0w_0<0.009<0.009waw_a<0.108<0.108,因此比 DES-SN 样本预期统计不确定度小 5 至 10 倍。
