A Measurement of CMB Cluster Lensing with SPT and DES Year 1 Data
E. J. Baxter, S. Raghunathan, T. M. Crawford +118
Clusters of galaxies gravitationally lens the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation, resulting in a distinct imprint in the CMB on arcminute scales. Measurement of this effec…
A survey of the cold molecular gas in gravitationally lensed star-forming galaxies at z>2
M. Aravena, J. S. Spilker, M. Bethermin +18
Using the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), we conducted a survey of CO J=1-0 and J=2-1 line emission towards strongly lensed high-redshift dusty star forming galaxies (DSF…
The Clusters Hiding in Plain Sight (CHiPS) survey: A first discovery of a massive nearby cluster around PKS1353-341
T. Somboonpanyakul, M. McDonald, H. W. Lin +2
We introduce the first result of the Clusters Hiding in Plain Sight (CHiPS) survey, which aims to discover new, nearby, and massive galaxy clusters that were incorrectly identified…
Neutrino Physics from the Cosmic Microwave Background and Large Scale Structure
K. N. Abazajian, K. Arnold, J. Austermann +74
This is a report on the status and prospects of the quantification of neutrino properties through the cosmological neutrino background for the Cosmic Frontier of the Division of Pa…
Detection of the kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect with DES Year 1 and SPT
B. Soergel, S. Flender, K. T. Story +80
We detect the kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (kSZ) effect with a statistical significance of by combining a cluster catalogue derived from the first year data of the Dark En…
Validation of Selection Function, Sample Contamination and Mass Calibration in Galaxy Cluster Samples
S. Grandis, M. Klein, J. J. Mohr +70
We construct and validate the selection function of the MARD-Y3 sample. This sample was selected through optical follow-up of the 2nd ROSAT faint source catalog (2RXS) with Dark En…
