Proper Motions of Stellar Streams Discovered in the Dark Energy Survey

N. Shipp, T. S. Li, A. B. Pace +12

We cross-match high-precision astrometric data from Gaia DR2 with accurate multi-band photometry from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) DR1 to confidently measure proper motions for nin…

Cosmological Constraints from Multiple Probes in the Dark Energy Survey

DES Collaboration, T. M. C. Abbott, A. Alarcon +166

The combination of multiple observational probes has long been advocated as a powerful technique to constrain cosmological parameters, in particular dark energy. The Dark Energy Su…

Survey geometry and the internal consistency of recent cosmic shear measurements

M. A. Troxel, E. Krause, C. Chang +76

We explore the impact of an update to the typical approximation for the shape noise term in the analytic covariance matrix for cosmic shear experiments that assumes the absence of…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Cosmological Constraints from Cosmic Shear

M. A. Troxel, N. MacCrann, J. Zuntz +132

We use 26 million galaxies from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 1 shape catalogs over 1321 deg of the sky to produce the most significant measurement of cosmic shear in a gal…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Multi-Probe Methodology and Simulated Likelihood Analyses

E. Krause, T. F. Eifler, J. Zuntz +83

We present the methodology for and detail the implementation of the Dark Energy Survey (DES) 3x2pt DES Year 1 (Y1) analysis, which combines configuration-space two-point statistics…

Stellar Kinematics and Metallicities in the Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Reticulum II

J. D. Simon, A. Drlica-Wagner, T. S. Li +69

We present Magellan/M2FS, VLT/GIRAFFE, and Gemini South/GMOS spectroscopy of the newly discovered Milky Way satellite Reticulum II. Based on the spectra of 25 Ret II member stars s…
