Dark Energy Survey Year 3 results: cosmology with moments of weak lensing mass maps -- validation on simulations

M. Gatti, C. Chang, O. Friedrich +69

We present a simulated cosmology analysis using the second and third moments of the weak lensing mass (convergence) maps. The analysis is geared towards the third year (Y3) data fr…

Observation and Confirmation of Nine Strong Lensing Systems in Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Data

B. Nord, E. Buckley-Geer, H. Lin +63

We describe the observation and confirmation of \nbconfirmtext\ new strong gravitational lenses discovered in Year 1 data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). We created candidate li…

Blinding multi-probe cosmological experiments

J. Muir, G. M. Bernstein, D. Huterer +62

The goal of blinding is to hide an experiment's critical results -- here the inferred cosmological parameters -- until all decisions affecting its analysis have been finalised. Thi…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: the lensing imprint of cosmic voids on the Cosmic Microwave Background

P. Vielzeuf, A. Kovács, U. Demirbozan +62

Cosmic voids gravitationally lens the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation, resulting in a distinct imprint on degree scales. We use the simulated CMB lensing convergence ma…

STRIDES: a 3.9 per cent measurement of the Hubble constant from the strong lens system DES J0408-5354

A. J. Shajib, S. Birrer, T. Treu +88

We present a blind time-delay cosmographic analysis for the lens system DES J04085354. This system is extraordinary for the presence of two sets of multiple images at different…

The SPTpol Extended Cluster Survey

L. E. Bleem, S. Bocquet, B. Stalder +135

We describe the observations and resultant galaxy cluster catalog from the 2770 deg SPTpol Extended Cluster Survey (SPT-ECS). Clusters are identified via the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich…
