The first and second data releases of the Kilo-Degree Survey
Jelte T. A. de Jong, Gijs A. Verdoes Kleijn, Danny R. Boxhoorn +46
The Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) is an optical wide-field imaging survey carried out with the VLT Survey Telescope and the OmegaCAM camera. KiDS will image 1500 square degrees in four…
Enhancing the Cosmic Shear Power Spectrum
Fergus Simpson, Joachim Harnois-Déraps, Catherine Heymans +3
Applying a transformation to a non-Gaussian field can enhance the information content of the resulting power spectrum, by reducing the correlations between Fourier modes. In the co…
Gravitational Lensing Analysis of the Kilo Degree Survey
Konrad Kuijken, Catherine Heymans, Hendrik Hildebrandt +32
The Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) is a multi-band imaging survey designed for cosmological studies from weak lensing and photometric redshifts. It uses the ESO VLT Survey Telescope wit…
Testing Modified Gravity with Cosmic Shear
Joachim Harnois-Déraps, Dipak Munshi, Patrick Valageas +4
We use the cosmic shear data from the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Lensing Survey to place constraints on and {\it Generalized Dilaton} models of modified gravity. This is…
CFHTLenS: A Gaussian likelihood is a sufficient approximation for a cosmological analysis of third-order cosmic shear statistics
P. Simon, E. Semboloni, L. van Waerbeke +10
We study the correlations of the shear signal between triplets of sources in the Canada-France-Hawaii Lensing Survey (CFHTLenS) to probe cosmological parameters via the matter bisp…
