« How does the cosmic web impact assembly bias? » |
Corentin Cadiou |
Recent development have shown that the halo assembly is in-
fluenced by the large scale structure of the cosmic web, resulting in the so called assembly bias. Using an extension of the excursion set theory constrained to the presence of a filament type structure, I will show how one can compute the accretion rate and formation time of halos and recover that distinct gradients for different quan- tities appear. I will argue that this effect can not be explained by a local rescaling of the density but instead encodes the intrinsic anisotropy of the large scale environment. |
