KiDS-450: Testing extensions to the standard cosmological model

Shahab Joudaki, Alexander Mead, Chris Blake +16

We test extensions to the standard cosmological model with weak gravitational lensing tomography using 450 deg of imaging data from the Kilo Degree Survey (KiDS). In these exte…

A study of the sensitivity of shape measurements to the input parameters of weak lensing image simulations

Henk Hoekstra, Massimo Viola, Ricardo Herbonnet

Improvements in the accuracy of shape measurements are essential to exploit the statistical power of planned imaging surveys that aim to constrain cosmological parameters using wea…

Shear Nulling after PSF Gaussianisation: moment-based weak lensing measurements with subpercent noise bias

Ricardo Herbonnet, Axel Buddendiek, Konrad Kuijken

Current optical imaging surveys for cosmology are covering large areas of sky. To exploit the statistical power of these surveys for weak lensing measurements requires shape measur…

KiDS-450: Cosmological parameter constraints from tomographic weak gravitational lensing

H. Hildebrandt, M. Viola, C. Heymans +33

We present cosmological parameter constraints from a tomographic weak gravitational lensing analysis of ~450deg of imaging data from the Kilo Degree Survey (KiDS). For a flat $…

Calibration of weak-lensing shear in the Kilo-Degree Survey

Ian Fenech Conti, Ricardo Herbonnet, Henk Hoekstra +3

We describe and test the pipeline used to measure the weak lensing shear signal from the Kilo Degree Survey (KiDS). It includes a novel method of `self-calibration' that partially…
