Shear measurement bias due to spatially varying spectral energy distributions in galaxies

Kavli Affiliate: Patricia R. Burchat | First 5 Authors: Sowmya Kamath, Joshua E. Meyers, Patricia R. Burchat, , | Summary: Galaxy color gradients – i.e., spectral energy distributions that vary across the galaxy profile – will impact galaxy shape measurements when the modeled point spread function (PSF) corresponds to that for a galaxy with spatially […]
