A Bayesian approach to the semi-analytic model of galaxy formation: methodology
galaxy formation methodology
2014/12/22
We believe that a wide range of physical processes conspire to shape the observed galaxy population but we remain unsure of their detailed interactions. The semi-analytic model (SAM) of galaxy formati...

It is believed that a wide range of physical processes conspire to shape the observed galaxy population but it remains unsure of their detailed interactions. The semi-analytic model (SAM) of galaxy fo...

2014/12/9
In this thesis I develop Bayesian approach to model galaxy surface brightness and apply it to a bulge-disc decomposition analysis of galaxies in near-infrared band, from Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MA...
The enrichment history of the intracluster medium: a Bayesian approach

2012/11/23
This work measures the evolution of the iron content in galaxy clusters by a rigorous analysis of the data of 130 clusters at 0.1ask is made difficult by a) the low signal-to-noise ratio...
A Bayesian Approach to Calibrating Period-Luminosity Relations of RR Lyrae Stars in the Mid-Infrared
statistical methods RR Lyrae distance scale
2012/2/23
A Bayesian approach to calibrating period-luminosity (PL) relations has substantial benefits over generic least-squares fits. In particular, the Bayesian approach takes into account the full prior dis...
Rotating Stars and Revolving Planets: Bayesian Exploration of the Pulsating Sky

2011/10/20
I describe ongoing work on development of Bayesian methods for exploring periodically varying phenomena in astronomy, addressing two classes of sources: pulsars, and extrasolar planets (exoplanets). F...
A Bayesian Surrogate Model for Rapid Time Series Analysis and Application to Exoplanet Observations
statistics: Bayesian model comparison model selection periodogram numerical methods
2011/10/14
We present a Bayesian surrogate model for the analysis of periodic or quasi-periodic time series data. We describe a computationally efficient implementation that enables Bayesian model comparison. We...
Life might be rare despite its early emergence on Earth: a Bayesian analysis of the probability of abiogenesis
Life might despite early emergence Earth
2011/10/12
Life arose on Earth sometime in the first few hundred million years after the young planet had cooled to the point that it could support water-based organisms on its surface. The early emergence of li...
A Bayesian Approach to Locating the Red Giant Branch Tip Magnitude (Part I)
Bayesian Approach Locating Giant Branch Tip Magnitu
2011/10/10
We present a new approach for identifying the Tip of the Red Giant Branch (TRGB) which, as we show, works robustly even on sparsely populated targets. Moreover, the approach is highly adaptable to the...
Constraints on cosmic-ray propagation models from a global Bayesian analysis
astroparticle physics—diffusion—methods statistical—cosmic rays—ISM general—Galaxy: general
2010/11/9
Research in many areas of modern physics such as, e.g., indirect searches for dark matter and particle acceleration in SNR shocks, rely heavily on studies of cosmic rays (CRs) and associated diffuse e...
Mode width fitting with a simple bayesian approach. Application to CoRoT targets HD 181420 and HD 49933
statistics detection data analysis asteroseismology
2010/11/15
Aims. We investigate the asteroseismology of two solar-like targets as observed with the CoRoT satellite, with particular attention paid to the mode fitting. HD 181420 and HD 49933 are typical CoRoT s...
Revisiting the Hubble sequence in the SDSS DR7 spectroscopic sample: a publicly available bayesian automated classification
Cosmology and Extragalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO) Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics (astro-ph.IM)
2011/1/5
We present an automated morphological classification in 4 types (E,S0,Sab,Scd) of ~700.000 galaxies from the SDSS DR7 spectroscopic sample based on support vector machines. The main new property of th...
Local non-Gaussianity in the Cosmic Microwave Background the Bayesian way
Cosmology and Extragalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
2010/12/27
We introduce an exact Bayesian approach to search for non-Gaussianity of local type in Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation data. Using simulated CMB temperature maps, the newly developed techn...
A Bayesian analysis of the 27 highest energy cosmic rays detected by the Pierre Auger Observatory
High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE) High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
2010/12/24
It is possible that ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) are generated by active galactic nuclei (AGNs), but there is currently no conclusive evidence for this hypothesis. Several reports of correla...
Comment on "Bayesian evidence: can we beat MultiNest using traditional MCMC methods", by Rutger van Haasteren (arXiv:0911.2150)

2010/3/18
In arXiv:0911.2150, Rutger van Haasteren seeks to criticize the nested sampling algorithm for Bayesian data analysis in general and its MultiNest implementation in particular. He introduces a new meth...
