Pushing automated morphological classifications to their limits with the Dark Energy Survey

J. Vega-Ferrero, H. Domínguez Sánchez, M. Bernardi +60

We present morphological classifications of 27 million galaxies from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Data Release 1 (DR1) using a supervised deep learning algorithm. The classif…

A machine learning approach to galaxy properties: joint redshift-stellar mass probability distributions with Random Forest

S. Mucesh, W. G. Hartley, A. Palmese +72

We demonstrate that highly accurate joint redshift-stellar mass probability distribution functions (PDFs) can be obtained using the Random Forest (RF) machine learning (ML) algorit…

Identifying RR Lyrae Variable Stars in Six Years of the Dark Energy Survey

K. M. Stringer, A. Drlica-Wagner, L. Macri +67

We present a search for RR Lyrae stars using the full six-year data set from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) covering ~5,000 sq. deg. of the southern sky. Using a multi-stage multi-va…

The PAU Survey: Intrinsic alignments and clustering of narrow-band photometric galaxies

Harry Johnston, Benjamin Joachimi, Peder Norberg +20

We present the first measurements of the projected clustering and intrinsic alignments (IA) of galaxies observed by the Physics of the Accelerating Universe Survey (PAUS). With pho…

Probing galaxy evolution in massive clusters using ACT and DES: splashback as a cosmic clock

Susmita Adhikari, Tae-hyeon Shin, Bhuvnesh Jain +113

We measure the projected number density profiles of galaxies and the splashback feature in clusters selected by the Sunyaev--Zeldovich (SZ) effect from the Advanced Atacama Cosmolo…

Discovery of a Candidate Binary Supermassive Black Hole in a Periodic Quasar from Circumbinary Accretion Variability

Wei-Ting Liao, Yu-Ching Chen, Xin Liu +68

Binary supermassive black holes (BSBHs) are expected to be a generic byproduct from hierarchical galaxy formation. The final coalescence of BSBHs is thought to be the loudest gravi…
