Measuring the Properties of Dark Energy with Photometrically Classified Pan-STARRS Supernovae. I. Systematic Uncertainty from Core-Collapse Supernova Contamination
D. O. Jones, D. M. Scolnic, A. G. Riess +18
The Pan-STARRS (PS1) Medium Deep Survey discovered over 5,000 likely supernovae (SNe) but obtained spectral classifications for just 10% of its SN candidates. We measured spectrosc…

The Mass Distribution of the Unusual Merging Cluster Abell 2146 from Strong Lensing
Joseph E. Coleman, Lindsay J. King, Masamune Oguri +11
Abell 2146 consists of two galaxy clusters that have recently collided close to the plane of the sky, and it is unique in showing two large shocks on $\textit{Chandra X-ray Observa…
The Distribution of Dark and Luminous Matter in the Unique Galaxy Cluster Merger Abell 2146
Lindsay J. King, Douglas I. Clowe, Joseph E. Coleman +9
Abell 2146 ( = 0.232) consists of two galaxy clusters undergoing a major merger. The system was discovered in previous work, where two large shock fronts were detected using the…
SPIDERS: the spectroscopic follow-up of X-ray selected clusters of galaxies in SDSS-IV
Nicolas Clerc, Andrea Merloni, Yu-Ying Zhang +17
SPIDERS (The SPectroscopic IDentification of eROSITA Sources) is a program dedicated to the homogeneous and complete spectroscopic follow-up of X-ray AGN and galaxy clusters over a…
Constraining the Baryon-Dark Matter Relative Velocity with the Large-Scale 3-Point Correlation Function of the SDSS BOSS DR12 CMASS Galaxies
Zachary Slepian, Daniel J. Eisenstein, Jonathan A. Blazek +12
We search for a galaxy clustering bias due to a modulation of galaxy number with the baryon-dark matter relative velocity resulting from recombination-era physics. We find no detec…
Detection of Baryon Acoustic Oscillation Features in the Large-Scale 3-Point Correlation Function of SDSS BOSS DR12 CMASS Galaxies
Zachary Slepian, Daniel J. Eisenstein, Joel R. Brownstein +10
We present the large-scale 3-point correlation function (3PCF) of the SDSS DR12 CMASS sample of Luminous Red Galaxies, the largest-ever sample used for a 3PCF or bispectr…
The clustering of galaxies in the completed SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: cosmological analysis of the DR12 galaxy sample
Shadab Alam, Metin Ata, Stephen Bailey +69
We present cosmological results from the final galaxy clustering data set of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey, part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III. Our combined gal…
The clustering of galaxies in the completed SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Anisotropic galaxy clustering in Fourier-space

We explore the cosmological implications of anisotropic clustering measurements in configuration space of the final galaxy samples from Data Release 12 of the SDSS-III Baryon Oscil…
The clustering of galaxies in the completed SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: combining correlated Gaussian posterior distributions
Ariel G. Sanchez, Jan Niklas Grieb, Salvador Salazar-Albornoz +17
The cosmological information contained in anisotropic galaxy clustering measurements can often be compressed into a small number of parameters whose posterior distribution is well…
