FPFS Shear Estimator: Systematic Tests on the Hyper Suprime-Cam Survey First Year Data
arXiv:1911.02195 · doi:10.3847/1538-4365/abbad1
Abstract
We apply the Fourier Power Function Shapelets (FPFS) shear estimator to the first year data of the Hyper Suprime-Cam survey to construct a shape catalog. The FPFS shear estimator has been demonstrated to have multiplicative bias less than in the absence of blending, regardless of complexities of galaxy shapes, smears of point spread functions (PSFs) and contamination from noise. The blending bias is calibrated with realistic image simulations, which include the impact of neighboring objects, using the COSMOS Hubble Space Telescope images. Here we carefully test the influence of PSF model residual on the FPFS shear estimation and the uncertainties in the shear calibration. Internal null tests are conducted to characterize potential systematics in the FPFS shape catalog and the results are compared with those measured using a catalog where the shapes were estimated using the re-Gaussianization algorithms. Furthermore, we compare various weak lensing measurements between the FPFS shape catalog and the re-Gaussianization shape catalog and conclude that the weak lensing measurements between these two shape catalogs are consistent with each other within the statistical uncertainty.
