Outline • Introduction to CFTHLS • Pipeline reliability • Cosmic shear on large scales • Cosmological parameter constraints
Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey: Canada-France collaboration - 500 nights between June 2003 and June 2008 - 4 CFHTLS-Wide ( 170 deg2 ), 4 CFHTLS-Deep ( 1 deg2 each ) W4 VVDS UKIDSS DXS • 3.6 m ground telescope • MegaCam: 36 CCDs, 1o × 1o • Pixel size: 0.186” • u g r i z bands W3 & D3 D2 HST Groth strip GEMINI-N visibility VLT visibility + HST-Cosmos D4 VLT visibility + Quasar field W2 W1 & D1 VLT visibility + XMM fields VVDS spectro. survey VLT visibility Terapix/Skywatcher : all data 03A-05A : 20000 Megacam images
Sky coverage of CFHTLSWide (the 3rd release): 57 deg2 Number of Pairs W1 (19 deg2) W2 (8 deg2) W3 (30 deg2) • CFHTLS Wide: • 57 deg2 (35% completed) • W2 is new compared with 1st release • maglim= 24.5 i-band • Aeff= 35 deg2 (conservative masking); neff = 12 gal/arcm2 • 2.5 ×106 galaxies

III. Cosmic shear on large scales using CFHTLS Wide (the 3rd release) Two publication (the 1st release): Semboloni et al., 2006 (Deep) Hoekstra et al., 2006 (Wide)
Non-Gaussianity calibrated (Semboloni et al. 2006) Cosmic shear signal on large scales • Sky coverage: 57 deg2 • up to 460’ • up to:230’ • No B-mode • Error bars (Schneider et al. 2002):
Large scales zoom in (26’~230’) • Reliable Shear analysis till 4 degrees • Large scales signal will reduce the effect of small scales systematics (non-linear evolution of power spectrum; intrinsic alignment)
The consistency of W1, W2 and W3 • Scales up to: W1 200’ (19 deg2) W2 120’ (8 deg2) W3 230’ (30 deg2) • 2pt correlation functions Consistency !
French Canadian Shear cross checking and systematics • Consistent shear signal • Common objects using two independent pipelines: • French: LF = L. Fu • Canadian: HH = H. Hoekstra • No systematics

flat model • likelihood of CS: , grid (other parameters are fixed) • likelihood of ; taken as a prior • Non-linear scheme: P&D (1996) and halo-fit (Smith et al., 2003) Non-linear scheme: halo-fit Marginalization:
1’~230’ 26’~230’ • Comparison of constraints from different scales Compare P&D and halo-fit model: • Full scales constraints: 2% difference • No small scales constraints: less than 1% difference • Systematics?
CFHTLS-wide (1st) Aeff = 22 deg2 100 deg2 CFHTLS Wide + RCS + VIRMOS-DESCART + GaBoDS CFHTLS-wide (3rd) Aeff = 35 deg2 Comparison with previous constraints • Comparison with Benjamin et al., 2007
WMAP3 CFHTLS Wide (3rd) • Comparison with WMAP3 (Spergel et al., 2006)
Probing dark energy The constant equation of state: • Non-linear power spectrum (Peacock & Dodds, 1996) • Marginalizing over • Flat model (68% c.l.)
Conclusion • Unbiased shear measurement calibrated on simulations and cross-checked with independent pipeline • Reliable Shear analysis up to large scales : 4 degrees • The use of large scales reduce the effect of small scales systematics (non-linear evolution of power spectrum; intrinsic alignment) • The cosmological parameter constraints (68% c.l.) • Constraints consistent with WMAP3 • The redshift degeneracy will be further minimized with the photometric redshifts measured from the new release (T4, Work in progress)
Covariance matrix • Gaussian covariance matrix taking masking and survey geometry into account (Schneider et al. 2002) • Non-Gaussian calibration (Semboloni et al. 2006)
Weak lensing and Galaxy shape: Mellier 1999 PSF anisotropy correction Derived from star shape analysis. = s + i + noise + systematics…. δ ~ 2γ(weak lensing regime) Reliability of results: depends on PSF analysis Assume sources orientation is isotropic: Weak lensing regime : ~ 2 = ‹Shear›+ noise
Cosmic shear probes the dark matter power spectrum ( Blandford et al 1991, Miralda-Escudé 1991, Kaiser 1992,1998, Bernardeau et al 1997, Jain & Seljak 1997, Schneider et al 1998 ) 2D power spectrum • Two-point statistics • Convergence (projected mass) power spectrum Redshift distribution
a Goal of CFHTLS Cosmic Shear Survey: observe P(k) and P(k,z) using weak lensing and compare its properties with cosmological models. Expansion and growth rate of structures as function of DM and DE content of the universe Weak lensing Supernovae
