The shapelets method for image analysis is based upon the decomposition of localized objects into a series of orthogonal components with convenient mathematical properties. We extend the ‘Cartesian shapelet’ formalism from earlier work, and construct... Read More about Polar shapelets.

An enlarged cosmic shear survey with the William Herschel Telescope (2005)
Journal Article
Massey, R., Refregier, A., Bacon, D., Ellis, R., & Brown, M. (2005). An enlarged cosmic shear survey with the William Herschel Telescope. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 359(4), 1277-1286. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2005.09011.x

We report the results of a cosmic shear survey using the 4.2-m William Herschel Telescope on La Palma, to a depth of R = 25.8 (z ≈ 0.8), over 4 deg2. The shear correlation functions are measured on scales from 1 to 15 arcmin, and are used to constrai... Read More about An enlarged cosmic shear survey with the William Herschel Telescope.
