The effect of detector nonlinearity on WFIRST PSF profiles for weak gravitational lensing measurements
Andrés. A. Plazas, Charles A. Shapiro, Arun Kannawadi +3
Weak gravitational lensing (WL) is one of the most powerful techniques to learn about the dark sector of the universe. To extract the WL signal from astronomical observations, gala…
Discovery of a z=0.65 Post-Starburst BAL Quasar in the DES Supernova Fields
Dale Mudd, Paul Martini, Suk Sien Tie +55
We present the discovery of a z=0.65 low-ionization broad absorption line (LoBAL) quasar in a post-starburst galaxy in data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) and spectroscopy from…
Cosmology from large scale galaxy clustering and galaxy-galaxy lensing with Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data
Juliana Kwan, Carles Sanchez, Joseph Clampitt +80
We present cosmological constraints from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) using a combined analysis of angular clustering of red galaxies and their cross-correlation with weak gravitat…
Consequences of CCD imperfections for cosmology determined by weak lensing surveys: From laboratory measurements to cosmological parameter bias
Yuki Okura, Andrea Petri, Morgan May +2
Weak gravitational lensing causes subtle changes in the apparent shapes of galaxies due to the bending of light by the gravity of foreground masses. By measuring the shapes of larg…
Host Galaxy Identification for Supernova Surveys
Ravi R. Gupta, Steve Kuhlmann, Eve Kovacs +57
Host galaxy identification is a crucial step for modern supernova (SN) surveys such as the Dark Energy Survey (DES) and the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST), which will disco…
