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…
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…
Mass and galaxy distributions of four massive galaxy clusters from Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data
P. Melchior, E. Suchyta, E. Huff +89
We measure the weak-lensing masses and galaxy distributions of four massive galaxy clusters observed during the Science Verification phase of the Dark Energy Survey. This pathfinde…
