The Buzzard Flock: Dark Energy Survey Synthetic Sky Catalogs

Joseph DeRose, Risa H. Wechsler, Matthew R. Becker +52

We present a suite of 18 synthetic sky catalogs designed to support science analysis of galaxies in the Dark Energy Survey Year 1 (DES Y1) data. For each catalog, we use a computat…

Cosmic Shear Measurements with DES Science Verification Data

M. R. Becker, M. A. Troxel, N. MacCrann +102

We present measurements of weak gravitational lensing cosmic shear two-point statistics using Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data. We demonstrate that our results are robu…

Cosmology from Cosmic Shear with DES Science Verification Data

The Dark Energy Survey Collaboration, T. Abbott, F. B. Abdalla +126

We present the first constraints on cosmology from the Dark Energy Survey (DES), using weak lensing measurements from the preliminary Science Verification (SV) data. We use 139 squ…

A High Throughput Workflow Environment for Cosmological Simulations

Brandon M. S. Erickson, Raminderjeet Singh, August E. Evrard +6

The next generation of wide-area sky surveys offer the power to place extremely precise constraints on cosmological parameters and to test the source of cosmic acceleration. These…

Influence of Projection in Cluster Cosmology Studies

Brandon M. S. Erickson, Carlos E. Cunha, August E. Evrard

Projection tends to skew the mass-observable relation of galaxy clusters by creating a small fraction of severely blended systems, those for which the measured observable property…
