Quasar Accretion Disk Sizes From Continuum Reverberation Mapping From the Dark Energy Survey

D. Mudd, P. Martini, Y. Zu +69

We present accretion disk size measurements for 15 luminous quasars at derived from light curves from the Dark Energy Survey. We measure the disk sizes…

DES15E2mlf: A Spectroscopically Confirmed Superluminous Supernova that Exploded 3.5 Gyr After the Big Bang

Y. -C. Pan, R. J. Foley, M. Smith +63

We present the Dark Energy Survey (DES) discovery of DES15E2mlf, the most distant superluminous supernova (SLSN) spectroscopically confirmed to date. The light curves and Gemini sp…

Models of the strongly lensed quasar DES J0408-5354

Adriano Agnello, Huan Lin, L. Buckley-Geer +82

We present gravitational lens models of the multiply imaged quasar DES J0408-5354, recently discovered in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) footprint, with the aim of interpreting its r…

Environmental dependence of the galaxy stellar mass function in the Dark Energy Survey Science Verification Data

J. Etherington, D. Thomas, C. Maraston +61

Measurements of the galaxy stellar mass function are crucial to understand the formation of galaxies in the Universe. In a hierarchical clustering paradigm it is plausible that the…

Eight new luminous z > 6 quasars selected via SED model fitting of VISTA, WISE and Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Observations

S. L. Reed, R. G. McMahon, P. Martini +60

We present the discovery and spectroscopic confirmation with the ESO NTT and Gemini South telescopes of eight new 6.0 < z < 6.5 quasars with z < 21.0. These quasars were pho…
