Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Calibration of redMaGiC Redshift Distributions in DES and SDSS from Cross-Correlations
R. Cawthon, C. Davis, M. Gatti +88
We present calibrations of the redshift distributions of redMaGiC galaxies in the Dark Energy Survey Year 1 (DES Y1) and Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) DR8 data. These results det…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: A Precise H0 Measurement from DES Y1, BAO, and D/H Data
DES Collaboration, T. M. C. Abbott, F. B. Abdalla +88
We combine Dark Energy Survey Year 1 clustering and weak lensing data with Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) and Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) experiments to constrain the Hubble…
The Splashback Feature around DES Galaxy Clusters: Galaxy Density and Weak Lensing Profiles
C. Chang, E. Baxter, B. Jain +82
Splashback refers to the process of matter that is accreting onto a dark matter halo reaching its first orbital apocenter and turning around in its orbit. The cluster-centric radiu…
Density split statistics: joint model of counts and lensing in cells
O. Friedrich, D. Gruen, J. DeRose +71
We present density split statistics, a framework that studies lensing and counts-in-cells as a function of foreground galaxy density, thereby providing a large-scale measurement of…
Density split statistics: Cosmological constraints from counts and lensing in cells in DES Y1 and SDSS data
D. Gruen, O. Friedrich, E. Krause +93
We derive cosmological constraints from the probability distribution function (PDF) of evolved large-scale matter density fluctuations. We do this by splitting lines of sight by de…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Cross-Correlation Redshifts - Methods and Systematics Characterization
M. Gatti, P. Vielzeuf, C. Davis +104
We use numerical simulations to characterize the performance of a clustering-based method to calibrate photometric redshift biases. In particular, we cross-correlate the weak lensi…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Cosmological Constraints from Cosmic Shear
M. A. Troxel, N. MacCrann, J. Zuntz +132
We use 26 million galaxies from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 1 shape catalogs over 1321 deg of the sky to produce the most significant measurement of cosmic shear in a gal…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Galaxy-Galaxy Lensing
J. Prat, C. Sánchez, Y. Fang +112
We present galaxy-galaxy lensing measurements from 1321 sq. deg. of the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 1 (Y1) data. The lens sample consists of a selection of 660,000 red galaxies w…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Curved-Sky Weak Lensing Mass Map
C. Chang, A. Pujol, B. Mawdsley +117
We construct the largest curved-sky galaxy weak lensing mass map to date from the DES first-year (DES Y1) data. The map, about 10 times larger than previous work, is constructed ov…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Redshift distributions of the weak lensing source galaxies
B. Hoyle, D. Gruen, G. M. Bernstein +135
We describe the derivation and validation of redshift distribution estimates and their uncertainties for the galaxies used as weak lensing sources in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Y…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Cosmological Constraints from Galaxy Clustering and Weak Lensing
DES Collaboration, T. M. C. Abbott, F. B. Abdalla +197
We present cosmological results from a combined analysis of galaxy clustering and weak gravitational lensing, using 1321 deg of imaging data from the first year of the D…
A Measurement of CMB Cluster Lensing with SPT and DES Year 1 Data
E. J. Baxter, S. Raghunathan, T. M. Crawford +118
Clusters of galaxies gravitationally lens the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation, resulting in a distinct imprint in the CMB on arcminute scales. Measurement of this effec…
