Linear power spectrum of observed source number counts
Open accessAbstract
We relate the observable number of sources per solid angle and redshift to the underlying proper source density and velocity, background evolution, and line-of-sight potentials. We give an exact result in the case of linearized perturbations assuming general relativity. This consistently includes contributions of the source density perturbations and redshift distortions, magnification, radial displacement, and various additional linear terms that are small on subhorizon scales. In addition, we calculate the effect on observed luminosities and hence, the result for sources observed as a function of flux, including magnification bias and radial-displacement effects. We give the corresponding linear result for a magnitude-limited survey at low redshift, and discuss the angular power spectrum of the total count distribution. We also calculate the cross correlation with the CMB polarization and temperature including Doppler source terms, magnification, redshift distortions, and other velocity effects for the sources, and discuss why the contribution of redshift distortions is generally small. Finally, we relate the result for source number counts to that for the brightness of line radiation, for example, 21 cm radiation, from the sources.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
