abstract

ZOBOV (ZOnes Bordering On Voidness) is an algorithm that finds density depressions in a set of points, without any free parameters, or assumptions about shape. It uses the Voronoi tessellation to estimate densities, which it uses to find both voids and subvoids. It also measures probabilities that each void or subvoid arises from Poisson fluctuations. This paper describes the ZOBOV algorithm, and the results from its application to the dark-matter particles in a region of the Millennium Simulation. Additionally, the paper points out an interesting high-density peak in the probability distribution of dark-matter particle densities.

Unveiling $f(R)$ Gravity with Void-Galaxy Cross-Correlation Multipoles

astro-ph.CO · 2026-05-12 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0 · 2 refs

Semi-analytical calculation of void-galaxy cross-correlation multipoles in Hu-Sawicki f(R) gravity reveals size-dependent deviations from LambdaCDM up to 29.7 percent for small voids, amplified by nonlinear evolution and potentially observable in Stage-IV surveys.

Constraining Neutrino Mass with the Void Weak Lensing Effect

astro-ph.CO · 2026-03-10 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Simulations of void-shear cross-correlation demonstrate that void lensing can constrain total neutrino mass to σ(M_ν)=0.096 eV without shape noise and 0.340 eV with Stage-III-like noise.
