Galaxy-Galaxy Weak Lensing Measurements from SDSS: I. Image Processing and Lensing signals
Wentao Luo, Xiaohu Yang, Jun Zhang +11
As the first paper in a series on the study of the galaxy-galaxy lensing from Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7 (SDSS DR7), we present our image processing pipeline that corr…

Approaching the Cramer-Rao Bound in Weak Lensing with PDF Symmetrization
Jun Zhang, Pengjie Zhang, Wentao Luo
Weak lensing statistics is typically measured as weighted sum of shear estimators or their products (shear-shear correlation). The weighting schemes are designed in the hope of min…

An empirical model to form and evolve galaxies in dark matter halos
Shijie Li, Youcai Zhang, Xiaohu Yang +8
Based on the star formation histories (SFH) of galaxies in halos of different masses, we develop an empirical model to grow galaxies in dark mattet halos. This model has very few i…
