Euclid: Calibrating distances from surface brightness fluctuations with Early Release Observations of the Fornax cluster
R. Habas, M. Cantiello, G. Riccio +169
Surface brightness fluctuations (SBF), the pixel-to-pixel variations in flux that arise from the statistical distribution of stars in galaxy images, provide a powerful tool to meas…
Euclid Quick Data Release (Q2) -- The Euclid Galactic Bulge Survey
J. -P. Beaulieu, E. Bachelet, M. Gilles +173
The Euclid Quick Data Release Q2 provides an unprecedented deep, wide-field, high-angular-resolution view of the inner Galactic bulge through the Euclid Galactic Bulge Survey (EGBS…
Euclid: Precise inference of defocus wavefront error from image diffraction spike measurements
D. Neumann, L. Miller, H. Hoekstra +146
The success of the Euclid cosmological weak lensing measurements requires unprecedented knowledge of the point spread function (PSF) shape. Defocus wavefront errors induce variatio…
Euclid preparation. XCVI. Cosmology Likelihood for Observables in Euclid (CLOE). 3. Inference and Forecasts
Euclid Collaboration, G. Cañas-Herrera, L. W. K. Goh +337
The Euclid mission aims to measure the positions, shapes, and redshifts of over a billion galaxies to provide unprecedented constraints on the nature of dark matter and dark energy…
Euclid: Galaxy SED reconstruction in the PHZ processing function: impact on the PSF and the role of medium-band filters
Euclid Collaboration, F. Tarsitano, C. Schreiber +301
Weak lensing surveys require accurate correction for the point spread function (PSF) when measuring galaxy shapes. For a diffraction-limited PSF, as arises in space-based missions,…
Euclid: Improving redshift distribution reconstruction using a deep-to-wide transfer function
Y. Kang, S. Paltani, W. G. Hartley +165
The Euclid mission seeks to understand the Universe expansion history and the nature of dark energy, which requires a very accurate estimate of redshift distribution. Achieving thi…
