The Dark Energy Camera (DECam)
K. Honscheid, D. L. DePoy
In this paper we describe the Dark Energy Camera (DECam), which will be the primary instrument used in the Dark Energy Survey. DECam will be a 3 sq. deg. mosaic camera mounted at t…
The 8 o'clock Arc: A Serendipitous Discovery of a Strongly Lensed Lyman Break Galaxy in the SDSS DR4 Imaging Data
Sahar S. Allam, Douglas L. Tucker, Huan Lin +4
We report on the serendipitous discovery of the brightest Lyman Break Galaxy (LBG) currently known, a galaxy at z=2.73 that is being strongly lensed by the z=0.38 Luminous Red Gala…
Luminous superclusters: remnants from inflation
J. Einasto, M. Einasto, E. Saar +10
We derive the luminosity and multiplicity functions of superclusters compiled for the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (Data Release 4), and for three sampl…
Probing Dark Energy via Weak Gravitational Lensing with the SuperNova Acceleration Probe (SNAP)
SNAP Collaboration
SNAP is a candidate for the Joint Dark Energy Mission (JDEM) that seeks to place constraints on the dark energy using two distinct methods. The first, Type Ia SN, is discussed in a…
Cosmological parameters from SDSS and WMAP
M. Tegmark, M. Strauss, M. Blanton +34
We measure cosmological parameters using the three-dimensional power spectrum P(k) from over 200,000 galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) in combination with WMAP and ot…
Clusters and Superclusters in the Las Campanas Redshift Survey
J. Einasto, M. Einasto, G. H"utsi +6
Two-dimensional high-resolution density field of galaxies of the Las Campanas Redshift Survey (LCRS) with a smoothing length 0.8 Mpc/h is used to extract clusters and groups of gal…
