The Size Distribution of Trans-Neptunian Bodies
G. M. Bernstein, D. E. Trilling, R. L. Allen +3
[Condensed] We search 0.02 deg^2 for trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) with m<=29.2 (diameter ~15 km) using the ACS on HST. Three new objects are discovered, roughly 25 times fewer th…
The Skewness of the Aperture Mass Statistic
M. Jarvis, G. Bernstein, B. Jain
We present simple formulae for calculating the skewness and kurtosis of the aperture mass statistic for weak lensing surveys which is insensitive to masking effects of survey geome…
Weak Lensing from Space III: Cosmological Parameters
Alexandre Refregier, Richard Massey, Jason Rhodes +6
Weak gravitational lensing provides a unique method to directly map the dark matter in the universe and measure cosmological parameters. Current weak lensing surveys are limited by…
Weak Lensing from Space II: Dark Matter Mapping
Richard Massey, Jason Rhodes, Alexandre Refregier +8
We study the accuracy with which weak lensing measurements could be made from a future space-based survey, predicting the subsequent precisions of 3-dimensional dark matter maps, p…
Weak Lensing from Space I: Instrumentation and Survey Strategy
Jason Rhodes, Alexandre Refregier, Richard Massey +1
A wide field space-based imaging telescope is necessary to fully exploit the technique of observing dark matter via weak gravitational lensing. This first paper in a three part ser…
