Recent bounds on graviton mass using galaxy clusters
Shantanu Desai, Sajal Gupta
Although galaxy clusters have proved to be wonderful laboratories for testing a plethora of modified gravity theories and other exotic alternatives to CDM, until a few years ago…
Dark Energy Survey Year 3 results: cosmology with moments of weak lensing mass maps -- validation on simulations
M. Gatti, C. Chang, O. Friedrich +69
We present a simulated cosmology analysis using the second and third moments of the weak lensing mass (convergence) maps. The analysis is geared towards the third year (Y3) data fr…
Blinding multi-probe cosmological experiments
J. Muir, G. M. Bernstein, D. Huterer +62
The goal of blinding is to hide an experiment's critical results -- here the inferred cosmological parameters -- until all decisions affecting its analysis have been finalised. Thi…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: the lensing imprint of cosmic voids on the Cosmic Microwave Background
P. Vielzeuf, A. Kovács, U. Demirbozan +62
Cosmic voids gravitationally lens the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation, resulting in a distinct imprint on degree scales. We use the simulated CMB lensing convergence ma…
STRIDES: a 3.9 per cent measurement of the Hubble constant from the strong lens system DES J0408-5354
A. J. Shajib, S. Birrer, T. Treu +88
We present a blind time-delay cosmographic analysis for the lens system DES J04085354. This system is extraordinary for the presence of two sets of multiple images at different…
An independent search for annual modulation and its significance in ANAIS-112 data
Aditi Krishak, Shantanu Desai
We perform an independent search for sinusoidal-based modulation in the recently released ANAIS-112 data, which could be induced by dark matter scatterings. We then evaluate this h…
The SPTpol Extended Cluster Survey
L. E. Bleem, S. Bocquet, B. Stalder +135
We describe the observations and resultant galaxy cluster catalog from the 2770 deg SPTpol Extended Cluster Survey (SPT-ECS). Clusters are identified via the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich…
Galaxy cluster hydrostatic masses using Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equation
Sajal Gupta, Shantanu Desai
Motivated by previous studies in literature about the potential importance of relativistic corrections to galaxy cluster hydrostatic masses, we calculate the masses of 12 relaxed c…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 results: The relationship between mass and light around cosmic voids
Y. Fang, N. Hamaus, B. Jain +74
What are the mass and galaxy profiles of cosmic voids? In this paper we use two methods to extract voids in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 1 redMaGiC galaxy sample to address th…
A gravitational-wave measurement of the Hubble constant following the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Virgo
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1186
This paper presents the gravitational-wave measurement of the Hubble constant () using the detections from the first and second observing runs of the Advanced LIGO and Virgo d…
Detection of cross-correlation between gravitational lensing and gamma rays
S. Ammazzalorso, D. Gruen, M. Regis +75
In recent years, many gamma-ray sources have been identified, yet the unresolved component hosts valuable information on the faintest emission. In order to extract it, a cross-corr…
A Detection of CMB-Cluster Lensing using Polarization Data from SPTpol
S. Raghunathan, S. Patil, E. Baxter +126
We report the first detection of gravitational lensing due to galaxy clusters using only the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The lensing signal is obtained u…
An independent assessment of significance of annual modulation in COSINE-100 data
Aditi Krishak, Shantanu Desai
We perform an independent search for annual modulation caused by dark matter-induced scatterings in the recently released COSINE-100 data. We test the hypothesis that the data cont…
Producing a BOSS-CMASS sample with DES imaging
S. Lee, E. M. Huff, A. J. Ross +57
We present a sample of galaxies with the Dark Energy Survey (DES) photometry that replicates the properties of the BOSS CMASS sample. The CMASS galaxy sample has been well characte…
Monte Carlo Control Loops for cosmic shear cosmology with DES Year 1
T. Kacprzak, J. Herbel, A. Nicola +52
Weak lensing by large-scale structure is a powerful probe of cosmology and of the dark universe. This cosmic shear technique relies on the accurate measurement of the shapes and re…
Robust model comparison tests of DAMA/LIBRA annual modulation
Aditi Krishak, Aisha Dantuluri, Shantanu Desai
We evaluate the statistical significance of the DAMA/LIBRA claims for annual modulation using three independent model comparison techniques, viz frequentist, information theory, an…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Wide field mass maps via forward fitting in harmonic space
B. Mawdsley, D. Bacon, C. Chang +63
We present new wide-field weak lensing mass maps for the Year 1 Dark Energy Survey data, generated via a forward fitting approach. This method of producing maps does not impose any…
Search for sub-solar mass ultracompact binaries in Advanced LIGO's second observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1187
We present an Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo search for sub-solar mass ultracompact objects in data obtained during Advanced LIGO's second observing run. In contrast to a previou…
