Imprint of DES super-structures on the Cosmic Microwave Background

A. Kovács, C. Sánchez, J. García-Bellido +58

Small temperature anisotropies in the Cosmic Microwave Background can be sourced by density perturbations via the late-time integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect. Large voids and superclus…

Weak lensing magnification in the Dark Energy Survey Science Verification Data

M. Garcia-Fernandez, E. Sánchez, I. Sevilla-Noarbe +68

In this paper the effect of weak lensing magnification on galaxy number counts is studied by cross-correlating the positions of two galaxy samples, separated by redshift, using dat…

Weak-lensing mass calibration of redMaPPer galaxy clusters in Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data

P. Melchior, D. Gruen, T. McClintock +78

We use weak-lensing shear measurements to determine the mean mass of optically selected galaxy clusters in Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data. In a blinded analysis, we s…

Galaxy bias from galaxy-galaxy lensing in the DES Science Verification Data

J. Prat, C. Sánchez, R. Miquel +68

We present a measurement of galaxy-galaxy lensing around a magnitude-limited () sample of galaxies from the Dark Energy Survey Science Verification (DES-SV) data. We…

Inference from the small scales of cosmic shear with current and future Dark Energy Survey data

N. MacCrann, J. Aleksić, A. Amara +61

Cosmic shear is sensitive to fluctuations in the cosmological matter density field, including on small physical scales, where matter clustering is affected by baryonic physics in g…

Optical-SZE Scaling Relations for DES Optically Selected Clusters within the SPT-SZ Survey

A. Saro, S. Bocquet, J. Mohr +68

We study the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) signature in South Pole Telescope (SPT) data for an ensemble of 719 optically identified galaxy clusters selected from 124.6 deg of…
