Reconstructing the Baryonic Acoustic Oscillations in the presence of photo-$z$ uncertainties

Understand

The reconstruction method has been widely employed to improve the Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) measurement in spectroscopic survey data analysis.

• In this study, we explore the reconstruction of the BAO signals in the realm of photometric data.
• By adapting the Zel'dovich reconstruction technique, we develop a formalism to reconstruct the transverse BAO in the presence of photo-$z$ uncertainties \change{under the plane-parallel approximation}.
• We access the performance of the BAO reconstruction through comoving $N$-body simulations.
