The STRong lensing Insights into the Dark Energy Survey (STRIDES) 2017/2018 follow-up campaign: Discovery of 10 lensed quasars and 10 quasar pairs
C. Lemon, M. W. Auger, R. McMahon +65
We report the results of the STRong lensing Insights from the Dark Energy Survey (STRIDES) follow-up campaign of the late 2017/early 2018 season. We obtained spectra of 65 lensed q…
Dark Energy Survey Year 3 results: cosmology with moments of weak lensing mass maps -- validation on simulations
M. Gatti, C. Chang, O. Friedrich +69
We present a simulated cosmology analysis using the second and third moments of the weak lensing mass (convergence) maps. The analysis is geared towards the third year (Y3) data fr…
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…
The Mystery of Photometric Twins DES17X1boj and DES16E2bjy
M. Pursiainen, C. Gutierrez, P. Wiseman +80
We present an analysis of DES17X1boj and DES16E2bjy, two peculiar transients discovered by the Dark Energy Survey (DES). They exhibit nearly identical double-peaked light curves wh…
Birds of a Feather? Magellan/IMACS Spectroscopy of the Ultra-Faint Satellites Grus II, Tucana IV, and Tucana V
J. D. Simon, T. S. Li, D. Erkal +54
We present Magellan/IMACS spectroscopy of three recently discovered ultra-faint Milky Way satellites, Grus II, Tucana IV, and Tucana V. We measure systemic velocities of V_hel = -1…
Blinding multi-probe cosmological experiments
J. Muir, G. M. Bernstein, D. Huterer +62
The goal of blinding is to hide an experiment's critical results -- here the inferred cosmological parameters -- until all decisions affecting its analysis have been finalised. Thi…
