Photometric redshift for clusters through A1689 and simulation studies Stephanie Jouvel, Ofer Lahav, Ole Host

Outline - Presentation of Le Phare code - A1689 photoz results : BPZ (Dan Coe) & Le Phare - Massimo Neghetti’s simulation : photoz results

Le Phare photoz code Stephane Arnouts & Olivier Ilbert : http://www.cfht.hawaii.edu/~arnouts/LEPHARE/cfht_lephare/lephare.html Interesting features and new developments include : - A prior on the redshift distribution using the VVDS spectroscopic redshift survey - Emission lines fluxes included in the library of templates. This is calculated using the relation between UV absolute magnitude – OII fluxes (Kennicutt et al. 1998). Other lines are derived from emission line ratios. - Possibility of including several extinction laws and E(B-V) values. - FIR scaling

A1689 : photoz BPZ & Le Phare COSMOS : 31 templates – Bruzual & Charlot 03 (Ext,NoEm) + Nz priori (VVDS)
7
Photoz results for A1689 Adding prior on the redshift distribution Error budget for HST filters probably underestimated : Filter calibration, source extraction Sextractor, photometry accuracy => High constraints on the fitting procedure We release it in adding +0.02 in quadrature to r,i,z HST filters photometric errors

Photoz results for A1689 : BPZ and Le Phare
9
A1689 photoz distribution Need to carefully select the filters to calculate photoz
10
Massimo's simulations : LePhare & BPZ
13
Massimo's simulations : lenses Contamination by galaxy cluster members : Photometry extraction problems Between Le Phare and BPZ we will probably Be able to remove catastrophic redshit
14
Conclusion - Validate the 0.02*(1+z) photoz accuracy - Remove catastrophic redshift using pdz information of several photoz codes - Need careful work on the photometry extraction - Do a proper analysis of the photometry error budget to improve the photoz accuracy - Optimize the observation strategy to get good photometry in the key filters - Do a pre-selection of cluster members from background galaxies following Umetsu et al. 2010 paper
