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…

Revisiting the role of the Thermally-Pulsating Asymptotic Giant Branch phase in high-redshift galaxies

Diego Capozzi, Claudia Maraston, Emanuele Daddi +3

We study the debated contribution from thermally pulsing asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) stars in evolutionary population synthesis models. We investigate the Spectral Energy Dist…

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…
