Precision calculations of the cosmic shear power spectrum projection
Martin Kilbinger, Catherine Heymans, Marika Asgari +9
We compute the spherical-sky weak-lensing power spectrum of the shear and convergence. We discuss various approximations, such as flat-sky, and first- and second- order Limber equa…
Confronting semi-analytic galaxy models with galaxy-matter correlations observed by CFHTLenS
Hananeh Saghiha, Patrick Simon, Peter Schneider +1
Testing predictions of semi-analytic models of galaxy evolution against observations help to understand the complex processes that shape galaxies. We compare predictions from the G…
Gravitational Lensing Analysis of the Kilo Degree Survey
Konrad Kuijken, Catherine Heymans, Hendrik Hildebrandt +32
The Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) is a multi-band imaging survey designed for cosmological studies from weak lensing and photometric redshifts. It uses the ESO VLT Survey Telescope wit…
Cosmic Shear Tomography and Efficient Data Compression using COSEBIs
Marika Asgari, Peter Schneider, Patrick Simon
Context. Gravitational lensing is one of the leading tools in understanding the dark side of the Universe. The need for accurate, efficient and effective methods which are able to…
Evidence for the accelerated expansion of the Universe from weak lensing tomography with COSMOS
Tim Schrabback, Jan Hartlap, Benjamin Joachimi +19
We present a tomographic cosmological weak lensing analysis of the HST COSMOS Survey. Applying our lensing-optimized data reduction, principal component interpolation for the ACS P…
