No evidence for a dependence of the mass size relation of early-type galaxies on environment in the local Universe

Marc Huertas-Company, Francesco Shankar, Simona Mei +4

The early--type galaxy (ETG) mass--size relation has been largely studied to understand how these galaxies have assembled their mass. One key observational result of the last years…

Simulations of single and two-component galaxy decompositions for spectroscopically selected galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Alan Meert, Vinu Vikram, Mariangela Bernardi

We present the results of fitting simulations of an unbiased sample of SDSS galaxies utilizing the fitting routine GALFIT and analysis pipeline PyMorph. These simulations are used…

Systematic effects on the size-luminosity relation: dependence on model fitting and morphology

M. Bernardi, A. Meert, V. Vikram +4

We quantify the systematics in the size-luminosity relation of galaxies in the SDSS main sample which arise from fitting different 1- and 2-component model profiles to the images.…

Atmospheric PSF Interpolation for Weak Lensing in Short Exposure Imaging Data

C. Chang, P. J. Marshall, J. G. Jernigan +25

A main science goal for the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) is to measure the cosmic shear signal from weak lensing to extreme accuracy. One difficulty, however, is that wit…

Spurious Shear in Weak Lensing with LSST

C. Chang, S. M. Kahn, J. G. Jernigan +25

The complete 10-year survey from the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will image 20,000 square degrees of sky in six filter bands every few nights, bringing the final…
