摘要:We present cosmological constraints from a joint cosmic shear analysis of the Kilo-Degree Survey (KV450) and the Dark Energy Survey (DES-Y1), which were conducted using Complete Orthogonal Sets ofE/B-Integrals (COSEBIs). With COSEBIs, we isolated anyB-modes that have a non-cosmic shear origin and demonstrate the robustness of our cosmologicalE-mode analysis as no significantB-modes were detected. We highlight how COSEBIs are fairly insensitive to the amplitude of the non-linear matter power spectrum at highk-scales, mitigating the uncertain impact of baryon feedback in our analysis. COSEBIs, therefore, allowed us to utilise additional small-scale information, improving the DES-Y1 joint constraints onS8 = σ8(Ωm/0.3)0.5and Ωmby 20%. By adopting a flat ΛCDM model we findS8= 0.755−0.021+0.019, which is in 3.2σtension with thePlanckLegacy analysis of the cosmic microwave background.
