cluster-matter cross correlation (profile & bias) stacking rank-ordered clusters: monotonic relation of the mean mass-observable no mass estimate of individual clusters no accurate relation to true cluster mass weak lensing of the stacked sample of clusters Cluster-Galaxy Weak Lensing PROBING DARK ENERGY WITH CLUSTER-GALAXY WEAK LENSING
3
Why Robust? stacked sample PROBING DARK ENERGY WITH CLUSTER-GALAXY WEAK LENSING
4
Why Robust? stacked sample PROBING DARK ENERGY WITH CLUSTER-GALAXY WEAK LENSING
5
Why Robust? stacked sample ≅ mass-ordered clusters PROBING DARK ENERGY WITH CLUSTER-GALAXY WEAK LENSING
6
Why Robust? stacked sample ≅ mass-ordered clusters works for arbitrary relation and bias PROBING DARK ENERGY WITH CLUSTER-GALAXY WEAK LENSING
7
Cosmological Probe? stacked sample is set by cosmology! growth factor, volume, halo mass function (given number of clusters) constituent clusters are also different! PROBING DARK ENERGY WITH CLUSTER-GALAXY WEAK LENSING
8
Prediction and Observable PROBING DARK ENERGY WITH CLUSTER-GALAXY WEAK LENSING angular diameter distance critical surface density
9
clusters provide high S/N (vs cosmic shear) spherical symmetric dark matter halo apparent lens center (central cD galaxies) stacking increases S/N → high redshift clusters tangential shear profile Why Better? clusters provide high S/N (vs cosmic shear) spherical symmetric dark matter halo apparent lens center (central cD galaxies) stacking increases S/N → high redshift clusters tangential shear profile PROBING DARK ENERGY WITH CLUSTER-GALAXY WEAK LENSING

Parameter Sensitivity PROBING DARK ENERGY WITH CLUSTER-GALAXY WEAK LENSING
12
Dark Energy Constraint PROBING DARK ENERGY WITH CLUSTER-GALAXY WEAK LENSING DES type survey 1,2,3 σ contours no CMB priors flat universe
13
Conclusion and Prospects novel method of cluster-galaxy weak lensing works for arbitrary mass-observables robust to scatter and bias readily applicable, strong constraints application to OSU Dark Energy Survey with Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) PROBING DARK ENERGY WITH CLUSTER-GALAXY WEAK LENSING Stay “fine” tuned!!!
