Milky Way Satellite Census. II. Galaxy--Halo Connection Constraints Including the Impact of the Large Magellanic Cloud
E. O. Nadler, R. H. Wechsler, K. Bechtol +63
The population of Milky Way (MW) satellites contains the faintest known galaxies and thus provides essential insight into galaxy formation and dark matter microphysics. Here we com…
Milky Way Satellite Census. I. The Observational Selection Function for Milky Way Satellites in DES Y3 and Pan-STARRS DR1
A. Drlica-Wagner, K. Bechtol, S. Mau +55
We report the results of a systematic search for ultra-faint Milky Way satellite galaxies using data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) and Pan-STARRS1 (PS1). Together, DES and PS1…
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…
Observation and Confirmation of Nine Strong Lensing Systems in Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Data
B. Nord, E. Buckley-Geer, H. Lin +63
We describe the observation and confirmation of \nbconfirmtext\ new strong gravitational lenses discovered in Year 1 data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). We created candidate li…
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…
