A Study of Quasar Selection in the Dark Energy Survey Supernova fields
S. S. Tie, P. Martini, D. Mudd +75
We present a study of quasar selection using the DES supernova fields. We used a quasar catalog from an overlapping portion of the SDSS Stripe 82 region to quantify the completenes…
Imprint of DES super-structures on the Cosmic Microwave Background
A. Kovács, C. Sánchez, J. García-Bellido +58
Small temperature anisotropies in the Cosmic Microwave Background can be sourced by density perturbations via the late-time integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect. Large voids and superclus…
Farthest Neighbor: The Distant Milky Way Satellite Eridanus II
T. S. Li, J. D. Simon, A. Drlica-Wagner +56
We present Magellan/IMACS spectroscopy of the recently-discovered Milky Way satellite Eridanus II (Eri II). We identify 28 member stars in Eri II, from which we measure a systemic…
The Astropy Problem
Demitri Muna, Michael Alexander, Alice Allen +151
The Astropy Project (http://astropy.org) is, in its own words, "a community effort to develop a single core package for Astronomy in Python and foster interoperability between Pyth…
Inference from the small scales of cosmic shear with current and future Dark Energy Survey data
N. MacCrann, J. Aleksić, A. Amara +61
Cosmic shear is sensitive to fluctuations in the cosmological matter density field, including on small physical scales, where matter clustering is affected by baryonic physics in g…
VDES J2325-5229 a z=2.7 gravitationally lensed quasar discovered using morphology independent supervised machine learning
Fernanda Ostrovski, Richard G. McMahon, Andrew J. Connolly +56
We present the discovery and preliminary characterization of a gravitationally lensed quasar with a source redshift and image separation of lensed by a foregrou…
