3D dark matter map of the JWST COSMOS-Web field using diffusion-based generative priors
arXiv:2611.03786v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mapping the three-dimensional distribution of dark matter is key to tracing the growth of cosmic structure. Two-dimensional weak lensing mass maps recover its projected distribution, but they blend structures at different distances along the line of sight. We reconstruct the three-dimensional matter distribution in the 0.54 deg$^2$ COSMOS-Web field using deep James Webb Space Telescope imaging, with an effective source density of 121 galaxies arcmin$^{-2}$ We combine a physical weak lensing forward model with a diffusion-based Bayesian generative prior learned from cosmological simulations, yielding a posterior distribution of the matter field across 20 lens planes to $z \simeq 2$, doubling the redshift reach of previous Hubble Space Telescope-based 3D reconstructions and approaching cosmic noon, an epoch of rapid galaxy growth. The reconstruction separates structures that overlap in projection and recovers non-Gaussian matter structure across a range of spatial scales, including over-densities associated with independently identified galaxy clusters that were not detected in earlier weak lensing maps. Posterior sampling quantifies the range of three-dimensional matter distributions allowed by the data, enabling a probabilistic visualization of the cosmic web while propagating uncertainties in its inferred structure. Null and simulation-based tests show that the recovered structures are supported by the lensing signal and are consistent with expectations from the fiducial $\Lambda$CDM cosmology. These results extend three-dimensional weak lensing mapping into the high-redshift, non-Gaussian regime and establish a route towards probabilistic mapping of the evolving cosmic web with current wide-field lensing surveys.
