DES Science Portal: Creating Science-Ready Catalogs
Angelo Fausti Neto, Luiz da Costa, Aurelio Carnero Rosell +55
We present a novel approach for creating science-ready catalogs through a software infrastructure developed for the Dark Energy Survey (DES). We integrate the data products release…
Assessment of Systematic Chromatic Errors that Impact Sub-1% Photometric Precision in Large-Area Sky Surveys
T. S. Li, D. L. DePoy, J. L. Marshall +69
Meeting the science goals for many current and future ground-based optical large-area sky surveys requires that the calibrated broadband photometry is stable in time and uniform ov…
redMaGiC: Selecting Luminous Red Galaxies from the DES Science Verification Data
E. Rozo, E. S. Rykoff, A. Abate +84
We introduce redMaGiC, an automated algorithm for selecting Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs). The algorithm was specifically developed to minimize photometric redshift uncertainties in…
The DES Science Verification Weak Lensing Shear Catalogues
M. Jarvis, E. Sheldon, J. Zuntz +92
We present weak lensing shear catalogues for 139 square degrees of data taken during the Science Verification (SV) time for the new Dark Energy Camera (DECam) being used for the Da…
The Eleventh and Twelfth Data Releases of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Final Data from SDSS-III
Shadab Alam, Franco D. Albareti, Carlos Allende Prieto +271
The third generation of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-III) took data from 2008 to 2014 using the original SDSS wide-field imager, the original and an upgraded multi-object fib…
Photometric redshift analysis in the Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data
C. Sánchez, M. Carrasco Kind, H. Lin +74
We present results from a study of the photometric redshift performance of the Dark Energy Survey (DES), using the early data from a Science Verification (SV) period of observation…
