Problems using ratios of galaxy shape moments on requirements for weak lensing surveys
Holger Israel, Thomas D. Kitching, Richard Massey
The shapes of galaxies can be quantified by ratios of their quadrupole moments. For faint galaxies, observational noise can make the denominator close to zero, so the ratios become…
Warm-hot baryons comprise 5-10 per cent of filaments in the cosmic web
Dominique Eckert, Mathilde Jauzac, HuanYuan Shan +8
Observations of the cosmic microwave background indicate that baryons account for 5% of the Universe's total energy content. In the local Universe, the census of all observed baryo…
How well can Charge Transfer Inefficiency be corrected? A parameter sensitivity study for iterative correction
Holger Israel, Richard Massey, Thibaut Prod'homme +9
Radiation damage to space-based Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) detectors creates defects which result in an increasing Charge Transfer Inefficiency (CTI) that causes spurious image tr…
The behaviour of dark matter associated with 4 bright cluster galaxies in the 10kpc core of Abell 3827
Richard Massey, Liliya Williams, Renske Smit +20
Galaxy cluster Abell 3827 hosts the stellar remnants of four almost equally bright elliptical galaxies within a core of radius 10kpc. Such corrugation of the stellar distribution i…
