Cross-correlation of gravitational lensing from DES Science Verification data with SPT and Planck lensing
D. Kirk, Y. Omori, A. Benoit-Lévy +89
We measure the cross-correlation between weak lensing of galaxy images and of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The effects of gravitational lensing on different sources will…
Observation and Confirmation of Six Strong Lensing Systems in The Dark Energy Survey Science Verification Data
B. Nord, E. Buckley-Geer, H. Lin +89
We report the observation and confirmation of the first group- and cluster-scale strong gravitational lensing systems found in Dark Energy Survey (DES) data. Through visual inspect…
Physical properties of star clusters in the outer LMC as observed by the Dark Energy Survey
A. Pieres, B. Santiago, E. Balbinot +57
The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) harbors a rich and diverse system of star clusters, whose ages, chemical abundances, and positions provide information about the LMC history of sta…
On the dependence of the type Ia SNe luminosities on the metallicity of their host galaxies
Manuel E. Moreno-Raya, Mercedes Mollá, Ángel R. López-Sánchez +4
The metallicity of the progenitor system producing a type Ia supernova (SN Ia) could play a role in its maximum luminosity, as suggested by theoretical predictions. We present an o…
Determining Ages of APOGEE Giants with Known Distances
Diane K Feuillet, Jo Bovy, Jon Holtzman +4
We present a sample of local red giant stars observed using the New Mexico State University 1 m telescope with the APOGEE spectrograph, for which we estimate stellar ages and the a…
Globular Cluster Streams as Galactic High-Precision Scales
A. H. W. Küpper, E. Balbinot, A. Bonaca +4
Tidal streams of globular clusters are ideal tracers of the Galactic gravitational potential. Compared to the few known, complex and diffuse dwarf-galaxy streams, they are kinemati…
