KiDS+VIKING-450: A new combined optical & near-IR dataset for cosmology and astrophysics

Angus H. Wright, Hendrik Hildebrandt, Konrad Kuijken +22

We present the curation and verification of a new combined optical and near infrared dataset for cosmology and astrophysics, derived from the combination of -band imaging fro…

KiDS+VIKING-450: Cosmic shear tomography with optical+infrared data

H. Hildebrandt, F. Köhlinger, J. L. van den Busch +25

We present a tomographic cosmic shear analysis of the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) combined with the VISTA Kilo-Degree Infrared Galaxy Survey (VIKING). This is the first time that a f…

Towards emulating cosmic shear data: Revisiting the calibration of the shear measurements for the Kilo-Degree Survey

Arun Kannawadi, Henk Hoekstra, Lance Miller +9

Exploiting the full statistical power of future cosmic shear surveys will necessitate improvements to the accuracy with which the gravitational lensing signal is measured. We prese…

Luminous red galaxies in the Kilo Degree Survey: selection with broad-band photometry and weak lensing measurements

Mohammadjavad Vakili, Maciej Bilicki, Henk Hoekstra +5

We use the overlap between multiband photometry of the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) and spectroscopic data based on the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and Galaxy And Mass Assembly (G…

KiDS+GAMA: Intrinsic alignment model constraints for current and future weak lensing cosmology

Harry Johnston, Christos Georgiou, Benjamin Joachimi +8

We directly constrain the non-linear alignment (NLA) model of intrinsic galaxy alignments, analysing the most representative and complete flux-limited sample of spectroscopic galax…

GAMA/G10-COSMOS/3D-HST: Evolution of the galaxy stellar mass function over 12.5Gyrs

Angus H. Wright, Simon P. Driver, Aaron S. G. Robotham

Using a combined and consistently analysed GAMA, G10-COSMOS, and 3D-HST dataset we explore the evolution of the galaxy stellar-mass function over lookback times $t_{\rm L} \in \lef…
