Relative clustering and the joint halo occupation distribution of red-sequence and blue-cloud galaxies in COMBO-17
P. Simon, M. Hetterscheidt, C. Wolf +5
This paper studies the relative spatial distribution of red-sequence and blue-cloud galaxies, and their relation to the dark matter distribution in the COMBO-17 survey as function…
Cosmological Constraints From the 100 Square Degree Weak Lensing Survey
Jonathan Benjamin, Catherine Heymans, Elisabetta Semboloni +7
We present a cosmic shear analysis of the 100 square degree weak lensing survey, combining data from the CFHTLS-Wide, RCS, VIRMOS-DESCART and GaBoDS surveys. Spanning ~100 square d…
The Shear TEsting Programme 2: Factors affecting high precision weak lensing analyses
Richard Massey, Catherine Heymans, Joel Berge +28
The Shear TEsting Programme (STEP) is a collaborative project to improve the accuracy and reliability of weak lensing measurement, in preparation for the next generation of wide-fi…
GaBoDS: The Garching-Bonn Deep Survey -- IX. A sample of 158 shear-selected mass concentration candidates
Mischa Schirmer, Thomas Erben, Marco Hetterscheidt +1
The aim of the present work is the construction of a mass-selected galaxy cluster sample based on weak gravitational lensing methods. This sample will be subject to spectroscopic f…
GaBoDS: The Garching-Bonn Deep Survey: VI. Cosmic shear analysis
M. Hetterscheidt, P. Simon, M. Schirmer +4
Aims. We present a cosmic shear analysis and data validation of 15 square degree high-quality R-band data of the Garching-Bonn Deep Survey obtained with the Wide Field Imager of th…
GaBoDS: The Garching-Bonn Deep Survey: VII. Probing galaxy bias using weak gravitational lensing
P. Simon, M. Hetterscheidt, M. Schirmer +4
[ABRIDGED] The weak gravitational lensing effect is used to infer matter density fluctuations within the field-of-view of the Garching-Bonn Deep Survey (GaBoDS). This information i…
