Precision photometric redshift calibration for galaxy-galaxy weak lensing
R. Mandelbaum, U. Seljak, C. M. Hirata +26
Accurate photometric redshifts are among the key requirements for precision weak lensing measurements. Both the large size of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and the existence…
Cross-correlation Weak Lensing of SDSS Galaxy Clusters I: Measurements
Erin S. Sheldon, David E. Johnston, Ryan Scranton +12
This is the first in a series of papers on the weak lensing effect caused by clusters of galaxies in Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The photometrically selected cluster sample, known as…
Intrinsic galaxy alignments from the 2SLAQ and SDSS surveys: luminosity and redshift scalings and implications for weak lensing surveys
Christopher M. Hirata, Rachel Mandelbaum, Mustapha Ishak +5
Correlations between intrinsic shear and the density field on large scales, a potentially important contaminant for cosmic shear surveys, have been robustly detected at low redshif…
