Photometric Redshift Estimation for Rubin Observatory Data Preview 1 with Redshift Assessment Infrastructure Layers (RAIL)
T. Zhang, E. Charles, J. F. Crenshaw +87
We present the first systematic analysis of photometric redshifts (photo-z) estimated from the Rubin Observatory Data Preview 1 (DP1) data taken with the Legacy Survey of Space and…
From Data to Software to Science with the Rubin Observatory LSST
Katelyn Breivik, Andrew J. Connolly, K. E. Saavik Ford +97
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) dataset will dramatically alter our understanding of the Universe, from the origins of the Solar System to the…
The DECam Local Volume Exploration Survey Data Release 2
A. Drlica-Wagner, P. S. Ferguson, M. Adamów +121
We present the second public data release (DR2) from the DECam Local Volume Exploration survey (DELVE). DELVE DR2 combines new DECam observations with archival DECam data from the…
The sensitivity of GPz estimates of photo-z posterior PDFs to realistically complex training set imperfections
Natalia Stylianou, Alex I. Malz, Peter Hatfield +2
The accurate estimation of photometric redshifts is crucial to many upcoming galaxy surveys, for example the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). Almos…
The Dark Energy Survey Data Release 2
DES Collaboration, T. M. C. Abbott, M. Adamow +132
We present the second public data release of the Dark Energy Survey, DES DR2, based on optical/near-infrared imaging by the Dark Energy Camera mounted on the 4-m Blanco telescope a…
Reducing ground-based astrometric errors with Gaia and Gaussian processes
W. F. Fortino, G. M. Bernstein, P. H. Bernardinelli +64
Stochastic field distortions caused by atmospheric turbulence are a fundamental limitation to the astrometric accuracy of ground-based imaging. This distortion field is measurable…
Noise from Undetected Sources in Dark Energy Survey Images
K. Eckert, G. M. Bernstein, A. Amara +66
For ground-based optical imaging with current CCD technology, the Poisson fluctuations in source and sky background photon arrivals dominate the noise budget and are readily estima…
First Cosmology Results Using Type Ia Supernovae From the Dark Energy Survey: Photometric Pipeline and Light Curve Data Release
D. Brout, M. Sako, D. Scolnic +89
We present griz light curves of 251 Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) from the first 3 years of the Dark Energy Survey Supernova Program's (DES-SN) spectroscopically classified sample. T…
Star-galaxy classification in the Dark Energy Survey Y1 dataset
I. Sevilla-Noarbe, B. Hoyle, M. J. Marchã +75
We perform a comparison of different approaches to star-galaxy classification using the broad-band photometric data from Year 1 of the Dark Energy Survey. This is done by performin…
How Many Kilonovae Can Be Found in Past, Present, and Future Survey Datasets?
D. Scolnic, R. Kessler, D. Brout +83
The discovery of a kilonova (KN) associated with the Advanced LIGO (aLIGO)/Virgo event GW170817 opens up new avenues of multi-messenger astrophysics. Here, using realistic simulati…
DES Science Portal: Creating Science-Ready Catalogs
Angelo Fausti Neto, Luiz da Costa, Aurelio Carnero Rosell +55
We present a novel approach for creating science-ready catalogs through a software infrastructure developed for the Dark Energy Survey (DES). We integrate the data products release…
COSMOGRAIL XVI: Time delays for the quadruply imaged quasar DES J0408-5354 with high-cadence photometric monitoring
F. Courbin, V. Bonvin, E. Buckley-Geer +74
We present time-delay measurements for the new quadruply imaged quasar DES J0408-5354, the first quadruply imaged quasar found in the Dark Energy Survey (DES). Our result is made p…
Astrometric calibration and performance of the Dark Energy Camera
G. M. Bernstein, R. Armstrong, A. A. Plazas +53
We characterize the ability of the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) to perform relative astrometry across its 500~Mpix, 3 deg^2 science field of view, and across 4 years of operation. Th…
Photometric redshift analysis in the Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data
C. Sánchez, M. Carrasco Kind, H. Lin +74
We present results from a study of the photometric redshift performance of the Dark Energy Survey (DES), using the early data from a Science Verification (SV) period of observation…
