Combining Dark Energy Survey Science Verification Data with Near Infrared Data from the ESO VISTA Hemisphere Survey
Manda Banerji, S. Jouvel, H. Lin +74
We present the combination of optical data from the Science Verification phase of the Dark Energy Survey (DES) with near infrared data from the ESO VISTA Hemisphere Survey (VHS). T…
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…
Type Ia Supernovae Selection and Forecast of Cosmology Constraints for the Dark Energy Survey
Eda Gjergo, Jefferson Duggan, John D. Cunningham +5
We present the results of a study of selection criteria to identify Type Ia supernovae photometrically in a simulated mixed sample of Type Ia supernovae and core collapse supernova…
Photometric Supernova Cosmology with BEAMS and SDSS-II
Renée Hlozek, Martin Kunz, Bruce Bassett +16
Supernova cosmology without spectroscopic confirmation is an exciting new frontier which we address here with the Bayesian Estimation Applied to Multiple Species (BEAMS) algorithm…
Supernova Simulations and Strategies For the Dark Energy Survey
J. P. Bernstein, R. Kessler, S. Kuhlmann +19
We present an analysis of supernova light curves simulated for the upcoming Dark Energy Survey (DES) supernova search. The simulations employ a code suite that generates and fits r…
A More General Model for the Intrinsic Scatter in Type Ia Supernova Distance Moduli
John Marriner, J. P. Bernstein, Richard Kessler +7
We describe a new formalism to fit the parameters and that are used in the SALT2 model to determine the standard magnitudes of Type Ia supernovae. The new formalism describ…
