Photometric redshifts for the Kilo-Degree Survey. Machine-learning analysis with artificial neural networks

M. Bilicki, H. Hoekstra, M. J. I. Brown +24

We present a machine-learning photometric redshift analysis of the Kilo-Degree Survey Data Release 3, using two neural-network based techniques: ANNz2 and MLPQNA. Despite limited c…

The masses of satellites in GAMA galaxy groups from 100 square degrees of KiDS weak lensing data

Cristóbal Sifón, Marcello Cacciato, Henk Hoekstra +23

We use the first 100 sq. deg. of overlap between the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) and the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey to determine the galaxy halo mass of ~10,000 spectrosc…

The enigmatic pair of dwarf galaxies Leo IV and Leo V: coincidence or common origin?

Jelte T. A. de Jong, Nicolas F. Martin, Hans-Walter Rix +3

We have obtained deep photometry in two 1x1 degree fields covering the close pair of dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSph) Leo IV and Leo V and part of the area in between. We find that…
