CIV Black Hole Mass Measurements with the Australian Dark Energy Survey (OzDES)

J. K. Hoormann, P. Martini, T. M. Davis +67

Black hole mass measurements outside the local universe are critically important to derive the growth of supermassive black holes over cosmic time, and to study the interplay betwe…

The Buzzard Flock: Dark Energy Survey Synthetic Sky Catalogs

Joseph DeRose, Risa H. Wechsler, Matthew R. Becker +52

We present a suite of 18 synthetic sky catalogs designed to support science analysis of galaxies in the Dark Energy Survey Year 1 (DES Y1) data. For each catalog, we use a computat…
