GREAT3 results I: systematic errors in shear estimation and the impact of real galaxy morphology

Kavli Affiliate: Philip Marshall | Summary:We present first results from the third GRavitational lEnsing Accuracy Testing (GREAT3) challenge, the third in a sequence of challenges for testing methods of inferring weak gravitational lensing shear distortions from simulated galaxy images. GREAT3 was divided into experiments to test three specific questions, and included simulated space- and ground-based […]
