Weak Lensing: Analysis Tools for Current and Future Surveys

该计划将建立和测试重力透镜测量数据的分析管道，并将其应用于两个现有的数据集。 分析管道将可扩展到为下一代望远镜计划的非常大的调查。与此同时，提议者将对透镜巡天的宇宙学准确性进行预测：（a）包括来自不同透镜统计的信息，（B）考虑到透镜数据中不同的、现实水平的系统误差、光度红移，并进行理论计算。这些将用于制定不同透镜测量的战略。

This program will build and test an analysis pipeline for gravitational lensing survey data, and apply it to two existing datasets. The analysis pipeline will be scalable to the very large surveys planned for the next generation of telescopes. In parallel the proposers will develop forecasts for the cosmological accuracy of lensing surveys that: (a) include information from different lensing statistics, and (b) allow for varying, realistic levels of systematic errors in the lensing data, photometric redshifts, and undertake theoretical calculations. These will be used to develop strategies for different lensing surveys.
