Density split statistics: Cosmological constraints from counts and lensing in cells in DES Y1 and SDSS data

Density split statistics: Cosmological constraints from counts and lensing in cells in DES Y1 and SDSS data

We derive cosmological constraints from the probability distribution function (PDF) of evolved large-scale matter density fluctuations. We do this by splitting lines of sight by density based on their count of tracer galaxies, and by measuring both gravitational shear around and counts-in-cells in overdense and underdense lines of sight, in …
