论文摘要
我们考虑弱重力镜头对从黑暗能源调查(DES)的1至3年级观察到的196个光谱型IA型超新星(SNE IA)的观察结果。我们同时测量角度相关函数和由弱透镜引起的非高斯偏度。这种方法的优点是对SNE IA幅度的固有分散不敏感。我们将这两种效果的幅度建模为$σ_8$的函数,并找到$σ_8= 1.2^{+0.9} _ { - 0.8} $。我们还将我们的方法应用于关节曲线分析(JLA)的488 SNE的子样本(选择与我们用于这项工作的红移范围相匹配),并找到$σ_8= 0.8 = 0.8^{+1.1} _ { - 0.7} $。 DES-SN和JLA较大数量的SNE之间的$σ_8$的可比不确定性突出了DES-SN样本同质性的好处,以及校准和数据分析的改进。
We consider the effects of weak gravitational lensing on observations of 196 spectroscopically confirmed Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) from years 1 to 3 of the Dark Energy Survey (DES). We simultaneously measure both the angular correlation function and the non-Gaussian skewness caused by weak lensing. This approach has the advantage of being insensitive to the intrinsic dispersion of SNe Ia magnitudes. We model the amplitude of both effects as a function of $σ_8$, and find $σ_8 = 1.2^{+0.9}_{-0.8}$. We also apply our method to a subsample of 488 SNe from the Joint Light-curve Analysis (JLA) (chosen to match the redshift range we use for this work), and find $σ_8 = 0.8^{+1.1}_{-0.7}$. The comparable uncertainty in $σ_8$ between DES-SN and the larger number of SNe from JLA highlights the benefits of homogeneity of the DES-SN sample, and improvements in the calibration and data analysis.
