  3. Bluffer’s Guide to Shear MeasurementCan you say these phrases with confidence? • ‘The shear responsivity depends on the galaxy ellipticity distribution’ • ‘P gamma has to be averaged over galaxies with similar properties’ • ‘If the wrong galaxy profile is assumed, the shear is biased’ • ‘You should definitely participate in GREAT08 ‘ • ‘Shear systematics depend on the square of the PSF size’ • ‘PSF PCA technique allows a larger effective star density’ • ‘Cross correlation between images averages out random PSF shear biases’

  18. Shear TEsting Programme (STEP) • Started July 2004 • Is the shear estimation problem solved or not? • Series of international blind competitions • Start with simple simulated data (STEP1) • Make simulations increasingly realistic • Real data • Current status: • STEP 1: simplistic galaxy shapes (Heymans et al 2005) • STEP 2: more realistic galaxies (Massey et al 2006) • STEP 3: difficult (space telescope) kernel (2007) • STEP 4: back to basics See Konrad’s Edinburgh DUEL talk

  19. Accuracy on g -20% 20% STEP1 Results → Existing results are reliable The future requires 0.0003 Heymans et al 2005 -0.2 0.2

  20. STEP1 Results - Dirty laundry Require 0.0003 0 Accuracy on g Average -0.0010 -0.005 High noise Low noise ~ noise level of image

  33. Quadrupole moments: the simplest possible shear measurement method

  34. Effect of shear on quadrupole moments

  35. Ellipticity |ϵ| = (a-b)/(a+b) from quadrupole moments Nasty noise properties Please correct this using the paper provided!! (Taylor expand for small g) Update after talk: better to start from reversed version of the above eqn (swap e^u with e^l and change “g” to “-g”. Then get e^l = e^u + g - ( (e_1^u2-e_2^u2) g_1 + e_1^u e_2^u g_2 ) – i ( (e_2^u2-e_1^u2) g_2 + e_1^u e_2^2 g_1) + O(g^2) Use <e_1^u> = <e_2^u> =0 so <e^u>=0 and assume symmetry <e_1^u2>=<e_2^u2> and <e_1^u e_2^u> =0 Where So ϵli can be treated as a noisy estimate of gi e.g. see Bartelmann & Schneider 1999 review p59+, Bonnet & Mellier 1995, Seitz & Schneider 1997

  36. Ellipticity ||=(a2-b2)/(a2+b2)from quadrupole moments

  37. Ellipticity ||=(a2-b2)/(a2+b2)from quadrupole moments Taylor expand and use Please check this Using the paper provided Depends on properties of galaxies Shear responsivity e.g. see Bartelmann & Schneider 1999 review p59+, Schneider & Seitz 1995

  38. KSB:As above, with weight function Herein lies significant complications The last two are the same in the case W(x,y)=1

  39. Why do weighted quadrupole moments?

  40. The KSB shear responsivity Kaiser, Squires & Broadhurst 1995, Luppino & Kaiser 1997, Hoekstra et al. 1998

  41. Improvements beyond KSB • Bernstein & Jarvis • Mandelbaum et al. • Kaiser 2000 • …

  42. Shapelets • Laguerre polynomials • Polynomial times Gaussian • Nice QM formalism • Lensing distortion has simple effect • psf convolution can be removed by matrix multiplication Massey & Refregier 2004

  43. Shapelets • Three main approaches • Refregier, Bacon, Massey • Use shapelet model to make perfect image. Measure Qij from this • Bernstein, Nakajima, Jarvis • Shear “circular” shapelet model to match the image • Kuijken • Shear exactly circular shapelet model to match image Massey & Refregier 2004

  44. Shapelets • Pros: • - Compact basis set • - Shearing and convolution v fast • Cons: • - QM formalism blindingly seductive • Gaussian envelope not well matched to galaxies or psf • .. see “Sechlets” poster.. • Three main approaches • Refregier, Bacon, Massey • Use shapelet model to make perfect image. Measure Qij from this • Bernstein, Nakajima, Jarvis • Shear “circular” shapelet model to match the image • Kuijken • Shear exactly circular shapelet model to match image

  45. Model fitting • Sheared shapelets (Nakajima & Bernstein; Kuijken) • Sums of Gaussians (Voigt & Bridle in prep) • de Vaucouleurs profiles (see Kitching talk) • Arbitrary radial profile (Irwin & Shmakova 2005) • …

  46. Is there a bias on gwhen fit 1 elliptical Gaussian?

  47. Modelling the galaxy with a single Gaussian: Simulated galaxy Model Exponential e=0.2 Gaussian • PSF perfectly known • Best-fit Gaussian to exponential found by minimising the Χ2 between the images with respect to the 6 model parameters: x0,y0,e,phi,a,A • No noise added to data! Voigt & Bridle in prep
