Hudson IAP July 4 CFHTLS-DEEP photo-redshifts Knowledge of the source redshifts is currently the dominant limiting factor for cosmic shear surveys. Also critical for galaxy-galaxy lensing NB: Not tested with spectroscopy in last bin (24 < i’ < 25).

Hudson IAP July 4 Photo-z Accuracy by Magnitude MH’s “in progress” photo-z vs. DEEP2 spectro (z< 1.4) Note that fraction of catastrophic errors doubles each mag

Hudson IAP July 4 Photo-z Accuracy by Magnitude works well at bright magnitudes … good for lenses in g-g lensing fraction outside 0.15*(1+z)

Hudson IAP July 4 Photo-z Accuracy by Magnitude … not as well at faint magnitudes … S/N or increase in blue gals with featureless spectra fraction outside 0.15*(1+z)

Hudson IAP July 4 Photo-z Accuracy by Magnitude … but at least the code’s error estimates are OK. 95% err

Hudson IAP July 4 Photo-z for Sources Drop objects with large errors and/or secondary peaks. Probably OK for cosmic shear which is cosmic variance limited. Characterize true z distribution as a function of slices in colour / magnitude space. via photo-z based on deeper IR or Spizter/IRAC …

Hudson IAP July 4 G-G lensing with photo-z HDF (Hudson, Gwyn, Dahle, Kaiser 98)

Hudson IAP July 4 CFHTLS-WIDE with photo-z Cast of dozens in Canada and France especially Parker (Waterloo -> ESO -> McMaster) Hoekstra (Victoria) van Waerbeke / Heymanns (UBC) Mellier / Fu / Terapix (IAP) Very, very preliminary both shear cats, photometry and photo-z Using only 14 sq deg with u*griz in WIDE Am using photo-z for lenses only No correction for dilution due to physical pairs or intrinsic alignment but at least this is not an “astro-ph” talk …

Hudson IAP July 4 CFHTLS-WIDE with photo-z ~ lenses 0.2 < z lens < 0.8 ~ sources 22.5 < i’ < 24.5

Hudson IAP July 4 CFHTLS-WIDE with photo-z Note horizontal axis in physical units 0.2 < z lens < 0.8 S/N of isothermal fit at R<300 kpc ~15 

Hudson IAP July 4 CFHTLS-WIDE with photo-z 0.2 < z lens < 0.8 ~10  ~5  ~10  ~7 

Hudson IAP July 4 CFHTLS-DEEP with photo-z c/o Laura Parker (also very preliminary!) low ~0.35 high ~0.61

Hudson IAP July 4 The Future Short term: end of summer ~25 sq deg WIDE + 4 sq deg DEEP with u*g’r’i’z’ WIDE allows us to parameterize as a function of colour, magnitude DEEP will give baseline for evolution of Tully-Fisher/Faber- Jackson/Mass-to-light Signal/Noise ~ at least x sqrt(2) shown here Refinements of photo-z, analysis (maximum-likelihood) Longer term: ~170 sq deg of survey enables subsamples by morphology, luminosity, stellar mass & redshift Halo masses, shapes as a function of above Large-scale bias as a function of above etc.
