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…

Redshift distributions of galaxies in the DES Science Verification shear catalogue and implications for weak lensing

C. Bonnett, M. A. Troxel, W. Hartley +104

We present photometric redshift estimates for galaxies used in the weak lensing analysis of the Dark Energy Survey Science Verification (DES SV) data. Four model- or machine learni…

The DES Science Verification Weak Lensing Shear Catalogues

M. Jarvis, E. Sheldon, J. Zuntz +92

We present weak lensing shear catalogues for 139 square degrees of data taken during the Science Verification (SV) time for the new Dark Energy Camera (DECam) being used for the Da…

Cosmic Shear Measurements with DES Science Verification Data

M. R. Becker, M. A. Troxel, N. MacCrann +102

We present measurements of weak gravitational lensing cosmic shear two-point statistics using Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data. We demonstrate that our results are robu…

Cosmology from Cosmic Shear with DES Science Verification Data

The Dark Energy Survey Collaboration, T. Abbott, F. B. Abdalla +126

We present the first constraints on cosmology from the Dark Energy Survey (DES), using weak lensing measurements from the preliminary Science Verification (SV) data. We use 139 squ…

Wide-Field Lensing Mass Maps from DES Science Verification Data

C. Chang, V. Vikram, B. Jain +81

We present a mass map reconstructed from weak gravitational lensing shear measurements over 139 sq. deg from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Science Verification data. The mass map pr…

Wide-Field Lensing Mass Maps from DES Science Verification Data: Methodology and Detailed Analysis

V. Vikram, C. Chang, B. Jain +91

Weak gravitational lensing allows one to reconstruct the spatial distribution of the projected mass density across the sky. These "mass maps" provide a powerful tool for studying c…
