The Dark Energy Survey Supernova Program: Modelling selection efficiency and observed core collapse supernova contamination

M. Vincenzi, M. Sullivan, O. Graur +79

The analysis of current and future cosmological surveys of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at high-redshift depends on the accurate photometric classification of the SN events detected…

DES Y3 results: Blending shear and redshift biases in image simulations

N. MacCrann, M. R. Becker, J. McCullough +93

As the statistical power of galaxy weak lensing reaches percent level precision, large, realistic and robust simulations are required to calibrate observational systematics, especi…

A machine learning approach to galaxy properties: joint redshift-stellar mass probability distributions with Random Forest

S. Mucesh, W. G. Hartley, A. Palmese +72

We demonstrate that highly accurate joint redshift-stellar mass probability distribution functions (PDFs) can be obtained using the Random Forest (RF) machine learning (ML) algorit…

Identifying RR Lyrae Variable Stars in Six Years of the Dark Energy Survey

K. M. Stringer, A. Drlica-Wagner, L. Macri +67

We present a search for RR Lyrae stars using the full six-year data set from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) covering ~5,000 sq. deg. of the southern sky. Using a multi-stage multi-va…
