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…
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…
Joint Analysis of Galaxy-Galaxy Lensing and Galaxy Clustering: Methodology and Forecasts for DES
Y. Park, E. Krause, S. Dodelson +68
The joint analysis of galaxy-galaxy lensing and galaxy clustering is a promising method for inferring the growth function of large scale structure. This analysis will be carried ou…
Weak lensing by galaxy troughs in DES Science Verification data
D. Gruen, O. Friedrich, A. Amara +89
We measure the weak lensing shear around galaxy troughs, i.e. the radial alignment of background galaxies relative to underdensities in projections of the foreground galaxy field o…
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…
Wide-Field Lensing Mass Maps from DES Science Verification Data
C. Chang, V. Vikram, B. Jain +81
We present a mass map reconstructed from weak gravitational lensing shear measurements over 139 sq. deg from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Science Verification data. The mass map pr…
Wide-Field Lensing Mass Maps from DES Science Verification Data: Methodology and Detailed Analysis
V. Vikram, C. Chang, B. Jain +91
Weak gravitational lensing allows one to reconstruct the spatial distribution of the projected mass density across the sky. These "mass maps" provide a powerful tool for studying c…
