Table 4.

Fiducial ΛCDM cosmological model for the galaxy-bias analysis.

Ω_m^(a)	Ω_Λ^(b)	Ω_b^(c)	σ₈^(d)	h^(e)	n_s^(f)	A_ia^(g)

Notes. The parameters are those from Planck Collaboration XIII (2016) for the TT, TE, and EE CMB power spectrum combined with constraints from baryon acoustic oscillations of galaxies. We changed σ₈ to a lower value, albeit irrelevant for the bias analysis, to be consistent with the cosmic shear constraints in CFHTLenS.

Density parameter of dust-like matter.

^(b)

Density parameter of the cosmological constant (chosen for a spatially flat universe).

Density parameter of baryonic matter.

^(d)

Normalisation of the linear matter power spectrum.

^(e)

Hubble parameter H₀ in units of 100 km s⁻¹ Mpc⁻¹.

^(f)

Spectral index of the primordial matter power spectrum.
