The final WaZP galaxy cluster catalog of the Dark Energy Survey and comparison with SZE data

C. Benoist, M. Aguena, L. da Costa +43

In this work, we present and characterize the galaxy cluster catalog detected by the WaZP cluster finder, which is not based on red-sequence identification, on the full six years o…

Constraints on cosmology and baryonic feedback with joint analysis of Dark Energy Survey Year 3 lensing data and ACT DR6 thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect observations

S. Pandey, J. C. Hill, A. Alarcon +137

We present a joint analysis of weak gravitational lensing (shear) data obtained from the first three years of observations by the Dark Energy Survey and thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich…

Dark Energy Survey Year 3 results: CDM cosmology from simulation-based inference with persistent homology on the sphere

J. Prat, M. Gatti, C. Doux +94

We present cosmological constraints from Dark Energy Survey Year 3 (DES Y3) weak lensing data using persistent homology, a topological data analysis technique that tracks how featu…

Cosmology with second and third-order shear statistics for the Dark Energy Survey: Methods and simulated analysis

R. C. H. Gomes, S. Sugiyama, B. Jain +56

We present a new pipeline designed for the robust inference of cosmological parameters using both second- and third-order shear statistics. We build a theoretical model for rapid e…

Selection Function of Clusters in Dark Energy Survey Year 3 Data from Cross-Matching with South Pole Telescope Detections

S. Grandis, M. Costanzi, J. J. Mohr +52

Galaxy clusters selected based on overdensities of galaxies in photometric surveys provide the largest cluster samples. Yet modeling the selection function of such samples is compl…

Discovering Strong Gravitational Lenses in the Dark Energy Survey with Interactive Machine Learning and Crowd-sourced Inspection with Space Warps

J. Gonzalez, P. Holloway, T. Collett +70

We conduct a search for strong gravitational lenses in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 6 imaging data. We implement a pre-trained Vision Transformer (ViT) for our machine learnin…

Multiprobe Cosmology from the Abundance of SPT Clusters and DES Galaxy Clustering and Weak Lensing

S. Bocquet, S. Grandis, E. Krause +216

Cosmic shear, galaxy clustering, and the abundance of massive halos each probe the large-scale structure of the Universe in complementary ways. We present cosmological constraints…

Improving Galaxy Cluster Selection with the Outskirt Stellar Mass of Galaxies

Matthew Kwiecien, Tesla Jeltema, Alexie Leauthaud +53

The number density and redshift evolution of optically selected galaxy clusters offer an independent measurement of the amplitude of matter fluctuations, . However, recent res…

Superclustering with the Atacama Cosmology Telescope and Dark Energy Survey: II. Anisotropic large-scale coherence in hot gas, galaxies, and dark matter

M. Lokken, A. van Engelen, M. Aguena +73

Statistics that capture the directional dependence of the baryon distribution in the cosmic web enable unique tests of cosmology and astrophysical feedback. We use constrained orie…

Copacabana: A Probabilistic Membership Assignment Method for Galaxy Clusters

J. H. Esteves, M. E. S. Pereira, M. Soares-Santos +52

Cosmological analyses using galaxy clusters in optical/NIR photometric surveys require robust characterization of their galaxy content. Precisely determining which galaxies belong…

Environmental Quenching of Low Surface Brightness Galaxies near Milky Way mass Hosts

J. Bhattacharyya, A. H. G. Peter, P. Martini +48

Low Surface Brightness Galaxies (LSBGs) are excellent probes of quenching and other environmental processes near massive galaxies. We study an extensive sample of LSBGs near massiv…

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…

Star/galaxy separation at faint magnitudes: Application to a simulated Dark Energy Survey

M. T. Soumagnac, F. B. Abdalla, O. Lahav +17

We address the problem of separating stars from galaxies in future large photometric surveys. We focus our analysis on simulations of the Dark Energy Survey (DES). In the first par…
