Search for RR Lyrae stars in DES ultra-faint systems: Grus I, Kim 2, Phoenix II, and Grus II

C. E. Martínez-Vázquez, A. K. Vivas, M. Foucoin +57

This work presents the first search for RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) in four of the ultra-faint systems imaged by the Dark Energy Survey (DES) using SOAR/Goodman and Blanco/DECam imagers.…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 results: The relationship between mass and light around cosmic voids

Y. Fang, N. Hamaus, B. Jain +74

What are the mass and galaxy profiles of cosmic voids? In this paper we use two methods to extract voids in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 1 redMaGiC galaxy sample to address th…

Detection of cross-correlation between gravitational lensing and gamma rays

S. Ammazzalorso, D. Gruen, M. Regis +75

In recent years, many gamma-ray sources have been identified, yet the unresolved component hosts valuable information on the faintest emission. In order to extract it, a cross-corr…

A Detection of CMB-Cluster Lensing using Polarization Data from SPTpol

S. Raghunathan, S. Patil, E. Baxter +126

We report the first detection of gravitational lensing due to galaxy clusters using only the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The lensing signal is obtained u…

A DECam Search for Explosive Optical Transients Associated with IceCube Neutrinos

R. Morgan, K. Bechtol, R. Kessler +65

In this work, we investigate the likelihood of association between realtime, TeV-PeV energy neutrino alerts from IceCube and optical counterparts in the form of core-collapse super…

Monte Carlo Control Loops for cosmic shear cosmology with DES Year 1

T. Kacprzak, J. Herbel, A. Nicola +52

Weak lensing by large-scale structure is a powerful probe of cosmology and of the dark universe. This cosmic shear technique relies on the accurate measurement of the shapes and re…
