Euclid Structural-Thermal-Optical Performance

Euclid Collaboration, A. Anselmi, R. Laureijs +290

The Euclid system performance is defined in terms of image quality metrics tuned to the weak gravitational lensing (WL) cosmological probe. WL induces stringent requirements on the…

Dark Energy Survey Year 3 Results: Mis-centering calibration and X-ray-richness scaling relations in redMaPPer clusters

P. Kelly, J. Jobel, O. Eiger +76

We use Dark Energy Survey Year 3 (DES Y3) clusters with archival X-ray data from XMM-Newton and Chandra to assess the centering performance of the redMaPPer cluster finder and to m…

Populations behind the source-subtracted cosmic infrared background anisotropies

A. Kashlinsky, R. G. Arendt, M. Ashby +27

While the upcoming telescopes will reveal correspondingly fainter, more distant galaxies, a question will persist: what more is there that these telescopes cannot see? One answer i…

Galaxies in X-ray Selected Clusters and Groups in Dark Energy Survey Data II: Hierarchical Bayesian Modeling of the Red-Sequence Galaxy Luminosity Function

Y. Zhang, C. J. Miller, P. Rooney +77

Using X-ray selected clusters in the Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data, we constrain the luminosity function (LF) of cluster red sequence galaxies as a functi…

Stellar mass as a galaxy cluster mass proxy: application to the Dark Energy Survey redMaPPer clusters

A. Palmese, J. Annis, J. Burgad +82

We introduce a galaxy cluster mass observable, , based on the stellar masses of cluster members, and we present results for the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 1 observatio…

Mass Variance from Archival X-ray Properties of Dark Energy Survey Year-1 Galaxy Clusters

A. Farahi, X. Chen, A. E. Evrard +76

Using archival X-ray observations and a log-normal population model, we estimate constraints on the intrinsic scatter in halo mass at fixed optical richness for a galaxy cluster sa…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Calibration of Cluster Mis-centering in the redMaPPer Catalogs

Y. Zhang, T. Jeltema, D. L. Hollowood +83

The center determination of a galaxy cluster from an optical cluster finding algorithm can be offset from theoretical prescriptions or -body definitions of its host halo center.…

The XMM Cluster Survey: The build up of stellar mass in Brightest Cluster Galaxies at high redshift

J. P. Stott, C. A. Collins, M. Sahlen +14

We present deep J and Ks band photometry of 20 high redshift galaxy clusters between z=0.8-1.5, 19 of which are observed with the MOIRCS instrument on the Subaru Telescope. By usin…

Velocity Dispersions of Clusters in the Dark Energy Survey Y3 redMaPPer Catalog

V. Wetzell, T. E. Jeltema, B. Hegland +96

We measure the velocity dispersions of clusters of galaxies selected by the redMaPPer algorithm in the first three years of data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES), allowing us to p…

Euclid preparation: Testing multi-field inflation with galaxy power spectrum and bispectrum

Euclid Collaboration, D. Linde, A. Moradinezhad Dizgah +281

Primordial non-Gaussianity (PNG) is a powerful probe of the origin of cosmic structure. Stage-IV surveys like \Euclid will measure galaxy - and -point clustering at high sign…
