GREAT3 results I: systematic errors in shear estimation and the impact of real galaxy morphology
Rachel Mandelbaum, Barnaby Rowe, Robert Armstrong +40
We present first results from the third GRavitational lEnsing Accuracy Testing (GREAT3) challenge, the third in a sequence of challenges for testing methods of inferring weak gravi…
CFHTLenS: Weak lensing calibrated scaling relations for low mass clusters of galaxies
K. Kettula, S. Giodini, E. van Uitert +24
We present weak lensing and X-ray analysis of 12 low mass clusters from the CFHTLenS and XMM-CFHTLS surveys. We combine these systems with high-mass systems from CCCP and low-mass…
CFHTLenS: A Weak Lensing Shear Analysis of the 3D-Matched-Filter Galaxy Clusters
Jes Ford, Ludovic Van Waerbeke, Martha Milkeraitis +17
We present the cluster mass-richness scaling relation calibrated by a weak lensing analysis of >18000 galaxy cluster candidates in the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Lensing Survey…
GalSim: The modular galaxy image simulation toolkit
Barnaby Rowe, Mike Jarvis, Rachel Mandelbaum +12
GALSIM is a collaborative, open-source project aimed at providing an image simulation tool of enduring benefit to the astronomical community. It provides a software library for gen…
Mass and galaxy distributions of four massive galaxy clusters from Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data
P. Melchior, E. Suchyta, E. Huff +89
We measure the weak-lensing masses and galaxy distributions of four massive galaxy clusters observed during the Science Verification phase of the Dark Energy Survey. This pathfinde…
CFHTLenS: Cosmological constraints from a combination of cosmic shear two-point and three-point correlations
Liping Fu, Martin Kilbinger, Thomas Erben +17
Higher-order, non-Gaussian aspects of the large-scale structure carry valuable information on structure formation and cosmology, which is complementary to second-order statistics.…
