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…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 results: The relationship between mass and light around cosmic voids
Y. Fang, N. Hamaus, B. Jain +74
What are the mass and galaxy profiles of cosmic voids? In this paper we use two methods to extract voids in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 1 redMaGiC galaxy sample to address th…
Monte Carlo Control Loops for cosmic shear cosmology with DES Year 1
T. Kacprzak, J. Herbel, A. Nicola +52
Weak lensing by large-scale structure is a powerful probe of cosmology and of the dark universe. This cosmic shear technique relies on the accurate measurement of the shapes and re…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Wide field mass maps via forward fitting in harmonic space
B. Mawdsley, D. Bacon, C. Chang +63
We present new wide-field weak lensing mass maps for the Year 1 Dark Energy Survey data, generated via a forward fitting approach. This method of producing maps does not impose any…
An extended catalog of galaxy-galaxy strong gravitational lenses discovered in DES using convolutional neural networks
C. Jacobs, T. Collett, K. Glazebrook +55
We search Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 3 imaging for galaxy-galaxy strong gravitational lenses using convolutional neural networks, extending previous work with new training sets…
Identification of RR Lyrae stars in multiband, sparsely-sampled data from the Dark Energy Survey using template fitting and Random Forest classification
K. M. Stringer, J. P. Long, L. M. Macri +75
Many studies have shown that RR Lyrae variable stars (RRL) are powerful stellar tracers of Galactic halo structure and satellite galaxies. The Dark Energy Survey (DES), with its de…
