KiDS+VIKING-450: Cosmic shear tomography with optical+infrared data
H. Hildebrandt, F. Köhlinger, J. L. van den Busch +25
We present a tomographic cosmic shear analysis of the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) combined with the VISTA Kilo-Degree Infrared Galaxy Survey (VIKING). This is the first time that a f…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1: An independent E/B-mode cosmic shear analysis
Marika Asgari, Catherine Heymans
We present an independent cosmic shear analysis of the non-cosmological B-mode distortions within the public first year data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). We find no significa…
Consistent cosmic shear in the face of systematics: a B-mode analysis of KiDS-450, DES-SV and CFHTLenS
Marika Asgari, Catherine Heymans, Hendrik Hildebrandt +8
We analyse three public cosmic shear surveys; the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS-450), the Dark Energy Survey (DES-SV) and the Canada France Hawaii Telescope Lensing Survey (CFHTLenS). A…
A Bayesian quantification of consistency in correlated datasets
Fabian Köhlinger, Benjamin Joachimi, Marika Asgari +3
We present three tiers of Bayesian consistency tests for the general case of datasets. Building on duplicates of the model parameters assigned to each dataset, these t…
KiDS-450: Enhancing cosmic shear with clipping transformations
Benjamin Giblin, Catherine Heymans, Joachim Harnois-Déraps +12
We present the first "clipped" cosmic shear measurement using data from the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS-450). "Clipping" transformations suppress the signal from the highest density,…
