A robust morphological classification of high-redshift galaxies using support vector machines on seeing limited images. I Method description

M. Huertas-Company, D. Rouan, L. Tasca +2

We present a new non-parametric method to quantify morphologies of galaxies based on a particular family of learning machines called support vector machines. The method, that can b…

Precision photometric redshift calibration for galaxy-galaxy weak lensing

R. Mandelbaum, U. Seljak, C. M. Hirata +26

Accurate photometric redshifts are among the key requirements for precision weak lensing measurements. Both the large size of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and the existence…

The First Release COSMOS Optical and Near-IR Data and Catalog

P. Capak, H. Aussel, M. Ajiki +54

We present imaging data and photometry for the COSMOS survey in 15 photometric bands between 0.3um and 2.4um. These include data taken on the Subaru 8.3m telescope, the KPNO and CT…

The redshift evolution of early-type galaxies in COSMOS: Do massive early-type galaxies form by dry mergers?

C. Scarlata, C. M. Carollo, S. J. Lilly +26

ABRIDGED: We study the evolution since z~1 of the rest-frame B luminosity function of the early-type galaxies (ETGs) in ~0.7 deg^2 in the COSMOS field. In order to identify ALL pro…

COSMOS: 3D weak lensing and the growth of structure

Richard Massey, Jason Rhodes, Alexie Leauthaud +17

We present a three dimensional cosmic shear analysis of the Hubble Space Telescope COSMOS survey, the largest ever optical imaging program performed in space. We have measured the…

The Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS): a large-scale structure at z=0.73 and the relation of galaxy morphologies to local environment

L. Guzzo, P. Cassata, A. Finoguenov +29

We have identified a large-scale structure at z~0.73 in the COSMOS field, coherently described by the distribution of galaxy photometric redshifts, an ACS weak-lensing convergence…
