Weak lensing reconstruction through cosmic magnification I: a minimal variance map reconstruction

Xinjuan Yang, Pengjie Zhang

We present a concept study on weak lensing map reconstruction through the cosmic magnification effect in galaxy number density distribution. We propose a minimal variance linear es…

The dark flow induced small scale kinetic Sunyaev Zel'dovich effect

Pengjie Zhang

Recently Kashlinsky et al. 2008, 2010 reported a discovery of a km/ bulk flow of the universe out to , through the dark flow induced CMB dipole in direc…

A proposal on the galaxy intrinsic alignment self-calibration in weak lensing surveys

Pengjie Zhang

The galaxy intrinsic alignment causes the galaxy ellipticity-ellipticity power spectrum between two photometric redshifts to decrease faster with respect to the redshift separation…

Self calibration of photometric redshift scatter in weak lensing surveys

Pengjie Zhang, Ue-Li Pen, Gary Bernstein

Photo-z errors, especially catastrophic errors, are a major uncertainty for precision weak lensing cosmology. We find that the shear-(galaxy number) density and density-density cro…

Self calibration of gravitational shear-galaxy intrinsic ellipticity correlation in weak lensing surveys

Pengjie Zhang

The galaxy intrinsic alignment is a severe challenge to precision cosmic shear measurement. We propose to self-calibrate the induced gravitational shear-galaxy intrinsic ellipticit…
