Analysis of two-point statistics of cosmic shear: II. Optimizing the survey geometry
We present simulations of a cosmic shear survey and show how the survey geometry influences the accuracy of determination of cosmological parameters. We numerically calculate the full covariance matrices Cov of two-point statistics of cosmic shear, based on the expressions derived in the first paper of this series. The individual …
