Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Galaxy Sample for BAO Measurement

M. Crocce, A. J. Ross, I. Sevilla-Noarbe +84

We define and characterise a sample of 1.3 million galaxies extracted from the first year of Dark Energy Survey data, optimised to measure Baryon Acoustic Oscillations in the prese…

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…

Density split statistics: Cosmological constraints from counts and lensing in cells in DES Y1 and SDSS data

D. Gruen, O. Friedrich, E. Krause +93

We derive cosmological constraints from the probability distribution function (PDF) of evolved large-scale matter density fluctuations. We do this by splitting lines of sight by de…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Cosmological Constraints from Cosmic Shear

M. A. Troxel, N. MacCrann, J. Zuntz +132

We use 26 million galaxies from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 1 shape catalogs over 1321 deg of the sky to produce the most significant measurement of cosmic shear in a gal…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Galaxy-Galaxy Lensing

J. Prat, C. Sánchez, Y. Fang +112

We present galaxy-galaxy lensing measurements from 1321 sq. deg. of the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 1 (Y1) data. The lens sample consists of a selection of 660,000 red galaxies w…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Galaxy clustering for combined probes

J. Elvin-Poole, M. Crocce, A. J. Ross +123

We measure the clustering of DES Year 1 galaxies that are intended to be combined with weak lensing samples in order to produce precise cosmological constraints from the joint anal…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Curved-Sky Weak Lensing Mass Map

C. Chang, A. Pujol, B. Mawdsley +117

We construct the largest curved-sky galaxy weak lensing mass map to date from the DES first-year (DES Y1) data. The map, about 10 times larger than previous work, is constructed ov…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Cosmological Constraints from Galaxy Clustering and Weak Lensing

DES Collaboration, T. M. C. Abbott, F. B. Abdalla +197

We present cosmological results from a combined analysis of galaxy clustering and weak gravitational lensing, using 1321 deg of imaging data from the first year of the D…

Optimized Clustering Estimators for BAO Measurements Accounting for Significant Redshift Uncertainty

Ashley J. Ross, Nilanjan Banik, Santiago Avila +8

We determine an optimized clustering statistic to be used for galaxy samples with significant redshift uncertainty, such as those that rely on photometric redshifts. To do so, we s…
