Dark Energy Survey Year 3 results: cosmology with moments of weak lensing mass maps -- validation on simulations

M. Gatti, C. Chang, O. Friedrich +69

We present a simulated cosmology analysis using the second and third moments of the weak lensing mass (convergence) maps. The analysis is geared towards the third year (Y3) data fr…

Blinding multi-probe cosmological experiments

J. Muir, G. M. Bernstein, D. Huterer +62

The goal of blinding is to hide an experiment's critical results -- here the inferred cosmological parameters -- until all decisions affecting its analysis have been finalised. Thi…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: the lensing imprint of cosmic voids on the Cosmic Microwave Background

P. Vielzeuf, A. Kovács, U. Demirbozan +62

Cosmic voids gravitationally lens the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation, resulting in a distinct imprint on degree scales. We use the simulated CMB lensing convergence ma…

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…

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…

Producing a BOSS-CMASS sample with DES imaging

S. Lee, E. M. Huff, A. J. Ross +57

We present a sample of galaxies with the Dark Energy Survey (DES) photometry that replicates the properties of the BOSS CMASS sample. The CMASS galaxy sample has been well characte…

Constraints on the redshift evolution of astrophysical feedback with Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect cross-correlations

S. Pandey, E. J. Baxter, Z. Xu +56

An understanding of astrophysical feedback is important for constraining models of galaxy formation and for extracting cosmological information from current and future weak lensing…

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…

Phenotypic redshifts with self-organizing maps: A novel method to characterize redshift distributions of source galaxies for weak lensing

R. Buchs, C. Davis, D. Gruen +71

Wide-field imaging surveys such as the Dark Energy Survey (DES) rely on coarse measurements of spectral energy distributions in a few filters to estimate the redshift distribution…
