A faint halo star cluster discovered in the Blanco Imaging of the Southern Sky Survey
S. Mau, A. Drlica-Wagner, K. Bechtol +13
We present the discovery of a faint, resolved stellar system, BLISS J0321+0438 (BLISS 1), found in Dark Energy Camera data from the first observing run of the Blanco Imaging of the…
Dark Energy Survey Year 1 results: Detection of Intra-cluster Light at Redshift 0.25
Y. Zhang, B. Yanny, A. Palmese +69
Using data collected by the Dark Energy Survey (DES), we report the detection of intracluster light (ICL) with galaxy clusters in the redshift range of 0.2-0.3. We design…
A Search for Optical Emission from Binary-Black-Hole Merger GW170814 with the Dark Energy Camera
Z. Doctor, R. Kessler, K. Herner +96
Binary black hole (BBH) mergers found by the LIGO and Virgo detectors are of immense scientific interest to the astrophysics community, but are considered unlikely to be sources of…
Chemical Abundance Analysis of Tucana III, the Second -process Enhanced Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy
J. L. Marshall, T. Hansen, J. D. Simon +56
We present a chemical abundance analysis of four additional confirmed member stars of Tucana III, a Milky Way satellite galaxy candidate in the process of being tidally disrupted a…
First Cosmology Results Using Type Ia Supernovae From the Dark Energy Survey: Analysis, Systematic Uncertainties, and Validation
D. Brout, D. Scolnic, R. Kessler +122
We present the analysis underpinning the measurement of cosmological parameters from 207 spectroscopically classified type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the first three years of the…
First Cosmological Results using Type Ia Supernovae from the Dark Energy Survey: Measurement of the Hubble Constant
E. Macaulay, R. C. Nichol, D. Bacon +106
We present an improved measurement of the Hubble constant (H_0) using the 'inverse distance ladder' method, which adds the information from 207 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the…
