Measuring Linear and Non-linear Galaxy Bias Using Counts-in-Cells in the Dark Energy Survey Science Verification Data
A. I. Salvador, F. J. Sánchez, A. Pagul +52
Non-linear bias measurements require a great level of control of potential systematic effects in galaxy redshift surveys. Our goal is to demonstrate the viability of using Counts-i…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: galaxy mock catalogues for BAO
S. Avila, M. Crocce, A. J. Ross +51
Mock catalogues are a crucial tool in the analysis of galaxy surveys data, both for the accurate computation of covariance matrices, and for the optimisation of analysis methodolog…
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: 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…
