The self similarity of weak lensing peaks.

TL;DR: In this paper, the statistics of weak lensing convergence peaks, such as their abundance and two-point correlation function (2PCF), for a wide range of cosmological parameters Ωm and σ8, were studied.

A new pressure-parametrization unified dark fluid model

TL;DR: In this paper, a new pressure-parametrization model was proposed to explain the accelerated expansion of the late-time universe by considering the baryon matter and dark contents (dark matter, dark energy) as a unified dark fluid.

The Alcock Paczy'nski test with Baryon Acoustic Oscillations: systematic effects for future surveys

TL;DR: In this paper, the Alcock Paczy'nski (AP) test was applied to the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) feature in the galaxy correlation function.

Implications of a wavelength-dependent PSF for weak lensing measurements

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore various approaches to determine the effective PSF using broad-band data and show that the required accuracy for Euclid can be achieved using the data that are planned to determine photometric redshifts.

The relationship between infrared, optical, and ultraviolet extinction

TL;DR: In this article, the average extinction law over the 3.5 micron to 0.125 wavelength range was derived for both diffuse and dense regions of the interstellar medium. And the validity of the law over a large wavelength interval suggests that the processes which modify the sizes and compositions of grains are stochastic in nature.
