Horizon-AGN virtual observatory -- 2: Template-free estimates of galaxy properties from colours

Iary Davidzon, Clotilde Laigle, Peter L. Capak +11

Using the Horizon-AGN hydrodynamical simulation and self-organising maps (SOMs), we show how to compress the complex data structure of a cosmological simulation into a 2-d grid whi…

WFIRST: The Essential Cosmology Space Observatory for the Coming Decade

O. Doré, C. Hirata, Y. Wang +46

Two decades after its discovery, cosmic acceleration remains the most profound mystery in cosmology and arguably in all of physics. Either the Universe is dominated by a form of da…
