Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Joint Analysis of Galaxy Clustering, Galaxy Lensing, and CMB Lensing Two-point Functions
T. M. C. Abbott, F. B. Abdalla, A. Alarcon +164
We perform a joint analysis of the auto and cross-correlations between three cosmic fields: the galaxy density field, the galaxy weak lensing shear field, and the cosmic microwave…
Rapidly evolving transients in the Dark Energy Survey
M. Pursiainen, M. Childress, M. Smith +79
We present the results of a search for rapidly evolving transients in the Dark Energy Survey Supernova Programme. These events are characterized by fast light curve evolution (rise…
Studying the Ultraviolet Spectrum of the First Spectroscopically Confirmed Supernova at redshift two
M. Smith, M. Sullivan, R. C. Nichol +87
We present observations of DES16C2nm, the first spectroscopically confirmed hydrogen-free superluminous supernova (SLSN-I) at redshift z~2. DES16C2nm was discovered by the Dark Ene…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Galaxy Sample for BAO Measurement
M. Crocce, A. J. Ross, I. Sevilla-Noarbe +84
We define and characterise a sample of 1.3 million galaxies extracted from the first year of Dark Energy Survey data, optimised to measure Baryon Acoustic Oscillations in the prese…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: A Precise H0 Measurement from DES Y1, BAO, and D/H Data
DES Collaboration, T. M. C. Abbott, F. B. Abdalla +88
We combine Dark Energy Survey Year 1 clustering and weak lensing data with Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) and Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) experiments to constrain the Hubble…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Cosmological Constraints from Galaxy Clustering and Weak Lensing
DES Collaboration, T. M. C. Abbott, F. B. Abdalla +197
We present cosmological results from a combined analysis of galaxy clustering and weak gravitational lensing, using 1321 deg of imaging data from the first year of the D…
