Slay the Shear: A Unified Statistical Framework for Weak Gravitational Lensing Shear Estimation

Shurui Lin, Xiangchong Li, Xin Liu

Weak gravitational lensing shear measurements are fundamentally limited by shape noise arising from the intrinsic diversity of galaxy morphologies. Upcoming surveys such as Rubin/L…

Accurate Galaxy Cluster Shear and Mass Calibration for LSST with AnaCal

Conghao Zhou, Xiangchong Li, Hao-Yi Wu +12

The observed abundance of galaxy clusters as a function of mass and redshift provides a powerful route to precision cosmology; a key challenge for cluster cosmology is to establish…

DCNNAnaCal: Physics-Informed Machine Learning for Accurate and Precise Weak Lensing Shear Estimation

Shurui Lin, Xiangchong Li, Ji Li +3

Traditional weak gravitational lensing shear estimators are carefully calibrated but struggle to fully capture realistic galaxy morphologies, point-spread-function (PSF) effects, b…

Analytical weak-lensing shear response of galaxy model fitting

Xiangchong Li

Galaxy model fitting is widely employed to estimate properties such as galaxy shape, size, and color. Understanding how the outputs of galaxy model fitting respond to weak-lensing…

Cosmology and Source Redshift Constraints from Galaxy Clustering and Tomographic Weak Lensing with HSC Y3 and SDSS using the Point-Mass Correction Model

Tianqing Zhang, Xiangchong Li, Sunao Sugiyama +13

The combination of galaxy clustering and weak lensing is a powerful probe of the cosmology model. We present a joint analysis of galaxy clustering and weak lensing cosmology using…
