Findings of the Joint Dark Energy Mission Figure of Merit Science Working Group
Andreas Albrecht, Luca Amendola, Gary Bernstein +8
These are the findings of the Joint Dark Energy Mission (JDEM) Figure of Merit (FoM) Science Working Group (SWG), the FoMSWG. JDEM is a space mission planned by NASA and the DOE fo…
Handbook for the GREAT08 Challenge: An image analysis competition for cosmological lensing
Sarah Bridle, John Shawe-Taylor, Adam Amara +35
The GRavitational lEnsing Accuracy Testing 2008 (GREAT08) Challenge focuses on a problem that is of crucial importance for future observations in cosmology. The shapes of distant g…
SuperNova Acceleration Probe (SNAP): Investigating Photometric Redshift Optimization
Tomas Dahlen, Bahram Mobasher, Stephanie Jouvel +5
The aim of this paper is to investigate ways to optimize the accuracy of photometric redshifts for a SNAP like mission. We focus on how the accuracy of the photometric redshifts de…
Shear Recovery Accuracy in Weak Lensing Analysis with Elliptical Gauss-Laguerre Method
Reiko Nakajima, Gary Bernstein
We implement the Elliptical Gauss-Laguerre (EGL) galaxy-shape measurement method proposed by Bernstein & Jarvis (2002) and quantify the shear recovery accuracy in weak lensing anal…
Dark energy constraints from lensing-detected galaxy clusters
Laura Marian, Gary M. Bernstein
We study the ability of weak lensing surveys to detect galaxy clusters and constrain cosmological parameters, in particular the equation of state of dark energy. There are two majo…
