Observation and Confirmation of Six Strong Lensing Systems in The Dark Energy Survey Science Verification Data
B. Nord, E. Buckley-Geer, H. Lin +89
We report the observation and confirmation of the first group- and cluster-scale strong gravitational lensing systems found in Dark Energy Survey (DES) data. Through visual inspect…
Wide-Field Lensing Mass Maps from DES Science Verification Data
C. Chang, V. Vikram, B. Jain +81
We present a mass map reconstructed from weak gravitational lensing shear measurements over 139 sq. deg from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Science Verification data. The mass map pr…
The Dark Energy Camera
B. Flaugher, H. T. Diehl, K. Honscheid +115
The Dark Energy Camera is a new imager with a 2.2-degree diameter field of view mounted at the prime focus of the Victor M. Blanco 4-meter telescope on Cerro Tololo near La Serena,…
DES J0454-4448: Discovery of the First Luminous z > 6 Quasar from the Dark Energy Survey
S. L. Reed, R. G. McMahon, M. Banerji +59
We present the first results of a survey for high redshift, z 6, quasars using izY multi-colour photometric observations from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). Here we report the…
Wide-Field Lensing Mass Maps from DES Science Verification Data: Methodology and Detailed Analysis
V. Vikram, C. Chang, B. Jain +91
Weak gravitational lensing allows one to reconstruct the spatial distribution of the projected mass density across the sky. These "mass maps" provide a powerful tool for studying c…
DESAlert: Enabling Real-Time Transient Follow-Up with Dark Energy Survey Data
A. Poci, K. Kuehn, the DES Collaboration +63
The Dark Energy Survey (DES) is currently undertaking an observational program imaging of the southern hemisphere sky with unprecedented photometric accuracy. In the process…
