Using stellar population models, we predicted that the Dark Energy Survey (DES) - due to its special combination of area (5000 deg. sq.) and depth () - would be in the po…
More out of less: an excess integrated Sachs-Wolfe signal from supervoids mapped out by the Dark Energy Survey
A. Kovács, C. Sánchez, J. García-Bellido +68

T. Shin, S. Adhikari, E. J. Baxter +107
We present a detection of the splashback feature around galaxy clusters selected using their Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) signal. Recent measurements of the splashback feature around op…

We present griz light curves of 251 Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) from the first 3 years of the Dark Energy Survey Supernova Program's (DES-SN) spectroscopically classified sample. T…
Cosmological Constraints from Multiple Probes in the Dark Energy Survey
DES Collaboration, T. M. C. Abbott, A. Alarcon +166
The combination of multiple observational probes has long been advocated as a powerful technique to constrain cosmological parameters, in particular dark energy. The Dark Energy Su…
