On the upper limits for dipole anisotropies in cosmic-ray positrons

J. Berdugo, J. Casaus, C. Mana +1

The excess of cosmic-ray positrons in the energy range from 10 GeV to few hundred GeV reported by PAMELA and AMS experiments is not consistent with a pure secondary origin and requ…

redMaGiC: Selecting Luminous Red Galaxies from the DES Science Verification Data

E. Rozo, E. S. Rykoff, A. Abate +84

We introduce redMaGiC, an automated algorithm for selecting Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs). The algorithm was specifically developed to minimize photometric redshift uncertainties in…

Effect of training characteristics on object classification: an application using Boosted Decision Trees

Ignacio Sevilla-Noarbe, Penélope Etayo-Sotos

We present an application of a particular machine-learning method (Boosted Decision Trees, BDTs using AdaBoost) to separate stars and galaxies in photometric images using their cat…
