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…
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…
Detecting Massive Galaxies at High Redshift using the Dark Energy Survey
L. J. M. Davies, C. Maraston, D. Thomas +10
The Dark Energy Survey (DES) will be unprecedented in its ability to probe exceptionally large cosmic volumes to relatively faint optical limits. Primarily designed for the study o…
redMaPPer I: Algorithm and SDSS DR8 Catalog
E. S. Rykoff, E. Rozo, M. T. Busha +12
We describe redMaPPer, a new red-sequence cluster finder specifically designed to make optimal use of ongoing and near-future large photometric surveys. The algorithm has multiple…
A Measurement of the Correlation of Galaxy Surveys with CMB Lensing Convergence Maps from the South Pole Telescope
L. E. Bleem, A. van Engelen, G. P. Holder +68
We compare cosmic microwave background lensing convergence maps derived from South Pole Telescope (SPT) data with galaxy survey data from the Blanco Cosmology Survey, the Wide-fiel…
