The DECam Local Volume Exploration survey (DELVE) is a 126-night survey program on the 4-m Blanco Telescope at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile. DELVE seeks to…
Probing galaxy evolution in massive clusters using ACT and DES: splashback as a cosmic clock
Susmita Adhikari, Tae-hyeon Shin, Bhuvnesh Jain +113
We measure the projected number density profiles of galaxies and the splashback feature in clusters selected by the Sunyaev--Zeldovich (SZ) effect from the Advanced Atacama Cosmolo…
The Diffuse Light Envelope of Luminous Red Galaxies

The impact of spectroscopic incompleteness in direct calibration of redshift distributions for weak lensing surveys
W. G. Hartley, C. Chang, S. Samani +74
Obtaining accurate distributions of galaxy redshifts is a critical aspect of weak lensing cosmology experiments. One of the methods used to estimate and validate redshift distribut…
