Dark Energy Survey Year 6 Results: Redshift Calibration of the Weak Lensing Source Galaxies
B. Yin, A. Amon, A. Campos +95
Determining the distribution of redshifts for galaxies in wide-field photometric surveys is essential for robust cosmological studies of weak gravitational lensing. We present the…
Dimensional reduction for sampled priors and application to photometric redshift distributions
Gary Bernstein, William Assignies Doumerg, Michael A. Troxel +35
A typical Bayesian inference on the values of some parameters of interest from some data involves running a Markov Chain (MC) to sample from the posterior $p({\bf q},{\…
Robust Measurement of Stellar Streams Around the Milky Way: Correcting Spatially Variable Observational Selection Effects in Optical Imaging Surveys
K. K. Boone, P. S. Ferguson, M. Tabbutt +47
Observations of density variations in stellar streams are a promising probe of low-mass dark matter substructure in the Milky Way. However, survey systematics such as variations in…
Dark Energy Survey Year 6 Results: Clustering-redshifts and importance sampling of Self-Organised-Maps realizations for pt samples
W. d'Assignies, G. M. Bernstein, B. Yin +92
This work is part of a series establishing the redshift framework for the pt analysis of the Dark Energy Survey Year 6 (DES Y6). For DES Y6, photometric redshift distribu…
Dark Energy Survey Year 3 results: Simulation-based CDM inference from weak lensing and galaxy clustering maps with deep learning: Analysis design
A. Thomsen, J. Bucko, T. Kacprzak +99
Data-driven approaches using deep learning are emerging as powerful techniques to extract non-Gaussian information from cosmological large-scale structure. This work presents the f…
Dark Energy Survey: Galaxy Sample for the Baryonic Acoustic Oscillation Measurement from the Final Dataset
J. Mena-Fernández, M. RodrÃguez-Monroy, S. Avila +85
In this paper we present and validate the galaxy sample used for the analysis of the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) signal in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Y6 data. The definitio…
