Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Measurement of the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation scale in the distribution of galaxies to redshift 1

The Dark Energy Survey Collaboration, T. M. C. Abbott, F. B. Abdalla +109

We present angular diameter distance measurements obtained by locating the BAO scale in the distribution of galaxies selected from the first year of Dark Energy Survey data. We con…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Cross-Correlation Redshifts in the DES -- Calibration of the Weak Lensing Source Redshift Distributions

C. Davis, M. Gatti, P. Vielzeuf +81

We present the calibration of the Dark Energy Survey Year 1 (DES Y1) weak lensing source galaxy redshift distributions from clustering measurements. By cross-correlating the positi…

The Splashback Feature around DES Galaxy Clusters: Galaxy Density and Weak Lensing Profiles

C. Chang, E. Baxter, B. Jain +82

Splashback refers to the process of matter that is accreting onto a dark matter halo reaching its first orbital apocenter and turning around in its orbit. The cluster-centric radiu…

Density split statistics: joint model of counts and lensing in cells

O. Friedrich, D. Gruen, J. DeRose +71

We present density split statistics, a framework that studies lensing and counts-in-cells as a function of foreground galaxy density, thereby providing a large-scale measurement of…
