Euclid preparation: VI. Verifying the Performance of Cosmic Shear Experiments

Euclid Collaboration, P. Paykari, T. D. Kitching +128

Our aim is to quantify the impact of systematic effects on the inference of cosmological parameters from cosmic shear. We present an end-to-end approach that introduces sources of…

A KiDS weak lensing analysis of assembly bias in GAMA galaxy groups

Andrej Dvornik, Marcello Cacciato, Konrad Kuijken +19

We investigate possible signatures of halo assembly bias for spectroscopically selected galaxy groups from the GAMA survey using weak lensing measurements from the spatially overla…

KiDS-450: Testing extensions to the standard cosmological model

Shahab Joudaki, Alexander Mead, Chris Blake +16

We test extensions to the standard cosmological model with weak gravitational lensing tomography using 450 deg of imaging data from the Kilo Degree Survey (KiDS). In these exte…

KiDS-450: Cosmological parameter constraints from tomographic weak gravitational lensing

H. Hildebrandt, M. Viola, C. Heymans +33

We present cosmological parameter constraints from a tomographic weak gravitational lensing analysis of ~450deg of imaging data from the Kilo Degree Survey (KiDS). For a flat $…

Calibration of weak-lensing shear in the Kilo-Degree Survey

Ian Fenech Conti, Ricardo Herbonnet, Henk Hoekstra +3

We describe and test the pipeline used to measure the weak lensing shear signal from the Kilo Degree Survey (KiDS). It includes a novel method of `self-calibration' that partially…

Gravitational Lensing Analysis of the Kilo Degree Survey

Konrad Kuijken, Catherine Heymans, Hendrik Hildebrandt +32

The Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) is a multi-band imaging survey designed for cosmological studies from weak lensing and photometric redshifts. It uses the ESO VLT Survey Telescope wit…

GREAT3 results I: systematic errors in shear estimation and the impact of real galaxy morphology

Rachel Mandelbaum, Barnaby Rowe, Robert Armstrong +40

We present first results from the third GRavitational lEnsing Accuracy Testing (GREAT3) challenge, the third in a sequence of challenges for testing methods of inferring weak gravi…
