The Dark Energy Survey Six-Year Calibration Star Catalog
E. S. Rykoff, D. L. Tucker, D. L. Burke +64
This Technical Note presents a catalog of calibrated reference stars that was generated by the Forward Calibration Method (FGCM) pipeline (arXiv:1706.01542) as part of the FGCM pho…
Simulating image coaddition with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope: II. Analysis of the simulated images and implications for weak lensing
Masaya Yamamoto, Katherine Laliotis, Emily Macbeth +16
One challenge for applying current weak lensing analysis tools to the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is that individual images will be undersampled. Our companion paper presente…
Simulating image coaddition with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope: I. Simulation methodology and general results
Christopher M. Hirata, Masaya Yamamoto, Katherine Laliotis +16
The upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will carry out a wide-area survey in the near infrared. A key science objective is the measurement of cosmic structure via weak gravi…
The Dark Energy Survey Data Release 2
DES Collaboration, T. M. C. Abbott, M. Adamow +132
We present the second public data release of the Dark Energy Survey, DES DR2, based on optical/near-infrared imaging by the Dark Energy Camera mounted on the 4-m Blanco telescope a…
Reducing ground-based astrometric errors with Gaia and Gaussian processes
W. F. Fortino, G. M. Bernstein, P. H. Bernardinelli +64
Stochastic field distortions caused by atmospheric turbulence are a fundamental limitation to the astrometric accuracy of ground-based imaging. This distortion field is measurable…
Noise from Undetected Sources in Dark Energy Survey Images
K. Eckert, G. M. Bernstein, A. Amara +66
For ground-based optical imaging with current CCD technology, the Poisson fluctuations in source and sky background photon arrivals dominate the noise budget and are readily estima…
