Cosmology constraints from shear peak statistics in Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data

T. Kacprzak, +100 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a shear peak statistics analysis of the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Science Verification (SV) data, using weak gravitational lensing measurements from a 139 deg² field, was performed.

Cosmology and Fundamental Physics with the Euclid Satellite

TL;DR: This review is meant to provide a guide to the scientific themes that will underlie the activity of the group during the preparation of the Euclid mission and discusses five broad topics: dark energy and modified gravity, dark matter, initial conditions, basic assumptions and questions of methodology in the data analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Probing modifications of general relativity using current cosmological observations

TL;DR: In this article, Komatsu et al. test general relativity (GR) using current cosmological data: the CMB from WMAP5, including the latest Sloan Digital Sky Survey SNe, and part of the weak lensing (WL) data from the Canada-Franco-Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atomic modelling of strengthening mechanisms due to voids and copper precipitates in α-iron

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply the model to study the motion of an infinite straight but flexible edge dislocation through a row of either voids or coherent copper precipitates in bcc iron.
