The Shear TEsting Programme 2: Factors affecting high precision weak lensing analyses
Richard Massey, Catherine Heymans, Joel Berge +28
The Shear TEsting Programme (STEP) is a collaborative project to improve the accuracy and reliability of weak lensing measurement, in preparation for the next generation of wide-fi…
The galaxy-galaxy lensing contribution to the cosmic shear two point function
Sarah Bridle, Filipe B. Abdalla
We note that galaxy-galaxy lensing by non-spherical galaxy halos produces a net anti-correlation between the shear of background galaxies and the ellipticity of foreground galaxies…
Cosmological baryonic and matter densities from 600,000 SDSS Luminous Red Galaxies with photometric redshifts
Chris Blake, Adrian Collister, Sarah Bridle +1
We analyze MegaZ-LRG, a photometric-redshift catalogue of Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) based on the imaging data of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) 4th Data Release. MegaZ-LRG,…
The Redshift Sensitivities of Dark Energy Surveys
Fergus Simpson, Sarah Bridle
Great uncertainty surrounds dark energy, both in terms of its physics, and the choice of methods by which the problem should be addressed. Here we quantify the redshift sensitiviti…
