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…

Euclid: Reconstruction of Weak Lensing mass maps for non-Gaussianity studies

S. Pires, V. Vandenbussche, V. Kansal +43

Weak lensing, which is the deflection of light by matter along the line of sight, has proven to be an efficient method for constraining models of structure formation and reveal the…

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…

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…
