Fourier Band-Power E/B-mode Estimators for Cosmic Shear
Matthew R. Becker, Eduardo Rozo
We introduce new Fourier band-power estimators for cosmic shear data analysis and E/B-mode separation. We consider both the case where one performs E/B-mode separation and the case…
Modelling the Transfer Function for the Dark Energy Survey
C. Chang, M. T. Busha, R. H. Wechsler +40
We present a forward-modelling simulation framework designed to model the data products from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). This forward-model process can be thought of as a transfe…
redMaPPer IV: Photometric Membership Identification of Cluster Galaxies with 1% Precision
Eduardo Rozo, Eli S. Rykoff, Matthew Becker +2
In order to study the galaxy population of galaxy clusters with photometric data one must be able to accurately discriminate between cluster members and non-members. The redMaPPer…
Cosmic Discordance: Are Planck CMB and CFHTLenS weak lensing measurements out of tune?
Niall MacCrann, Joe Zuntz, Sarah Bridle +2
We examine the level of agreement between low redshift weak lensing data and the CMB using measurements from the CFHTLenS and Planck+WMAP polarization. We perform an independent an…
Orientation Bias of Optically Selected Galaxy Clusters and Its Impact on Stacked Weak Lensing Analyses
Jörg P. Dietrich, Yuanyuan Zhang, Jeeseon Song +15
Weak-lensing measurements of the averaged shear profiles of galaxy clusters binned by some proxy for cluster mass are commonly converted to cluster mass estimates under the assumpt…
Predicting Galaxy Star Formation Rates via the Co-evolution of Galaxies and Halos
Douglas F. Watson, Andrew P. Hearin, Andreas A. Berlind +6
In this paper, we test the age matching hypothesis that the star formation rate (SFR) of a galaxy of fixed stellar mass is determined by its dark matter halo formation history, and…
