Simulating Image Coaddition with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. IV. Hyperparameter Optimization and Experimental Features
Kaili Cao, Christopher M. Hirata, Katherine Laliotis +3
For weak gravitational lensing cosmology with the forthcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, image coaddition, or construction of oversampled images from undersampled ones, is…
Analysis of biasing from noise from the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope: implications for weak lensing
Katherine Laliotis, Emily Macbeth, Christopher M. Hirata +3
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, set to launch in 2026, will bring unprecedented precision to measurements of weak gravitational lensing. Because weak lensing is an inherentl…
Simulating image coaddition with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope: III. Software improvements and new linear algebra strategies
Kaili Cao, Christopher M. Hirata, Katherine Laliotis +3
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will implement a devoted weak gravitational lensing program with its High Latitude Wide Area Survey. For cosmological purposes, a critical ste…
Satellite galaxies in the Illustris-1 simulation: anisotropic locations around relatively isolated hosts
Tereasa G. Brainerd, Masaya Yamamoto
We investigate the locations of satellite galaxies in the z = 0 redshift slice of the hydrodynamical Illustris-1 simulation. As expected from previous work, the satellites are dist…
