Cross-correlation of gravitational lensing from DES Science Verification data with SPT and Planck lensing
D. Kirk, Y. Omori, A. Benoit-Lévy +89
We measure the cross-correlation between weak lensing of galaxy images and of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The effects of gravitational lensing on different sources will…
Observation and Confirmation of Six Strong Lensing Systems in The Dark Energy Survey Science Verification Data
B. Nord, E. Buckley-Geer, H. Lin +89
We report the observation and confirmation of the first group- and cluster-scale strong gravitational lensing systems found in Dark Energy Survey (DES) data. Through visual inspect…
The XMM Cluster Survey: The Halo Occupation Number of BOSS galaxies in X-ray clusters
Nicola Mehrtens, A. Kathy Romer, Robert C. Nichol +26
We present a direct measurement of the mean halo occupation distribution (HOD) of galaxies taken from the eleventh data release (DR11) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-III Baryon Os…
SDSS-IV eBOSS emission-line galaxy pilot survey
J. Comparat, T. Delubac, S. Jouvel +83
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV extended Baryonic Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (SDSS-IV/eBOSS) will observe 195,000 emission-line galaxies (ELGs) to measure the Baryonic Acoust…
Redshift distributions of galaxies in the DES Science Verification shear catalogue and implications for weak lensing
C. Bonnett, M. A. Troxel, W. Hartley +104
We present photometric redshift estimates for galaxies used in the weak lensing analysis of the Dark Energy Survey Science Verification (DES SV) data. Four model- or machine learni…
Mapping and simulating systematics due to spatially-varying observing conditions in DES Science Verification data
B. Leistedt, H. V. Peiris, F. Elsner +92
Spatially-varying depth and characteristics of observing conditions, such as seeing, airmass, or sky background, are major sources of systematic uncertainties in modern galaxy surv…
Cosmic Shear Measurements with DES Science Verification Data
M. R. Becker, M. A. Troxel, N. MacCrann +102
We present measurements of weak gravitational lensing cosmic shear two-point statistics using Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data. We demonstrate that our results are robu…
CMB lensing tomography with the DES Science Verification galaxies
T. Giannantonio, P. Fosalba, R. Cawthon +101
We measure the cross-correlation between the galaxy density in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Science Verification data and the lensing of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) as re…
Galaxy clustering, photometric redshifts and diagnosis of systematics in the DES Science Verification data
M. Crocce, J. Carretero, A. H. Bauer +84
We study the clustering of galaxies detected at in the Science Verification observations of the Dark Energy Survey (DES). Two-point correlation functions are measured usin…
Constraints on the Richness-Mass Relation and the Optical-SZE Positional Offset Distribution for SZE-Selected Clusters
A. Saro, S. Bocquet, E. Rozo +99
We cross-match galaxy cluster candidates selected via their Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) signatures in 129.1 deg of the South Pole Telescope 2500d SPT-SZ survey with optical…
