Size Bias in Galaxy Surveys (2009)
Schmidt, Fabian, Rozo, Eduardo, Dodelson, Scott, Hui, Lam, Sheldon, Erin

Lensing Bias in Cosmic Shear (2009)
Schmidt, Fabian, Rozo, Eduardo, Dodelson, Scott, Hui, Lam, Sheldon, Erin
Only galaxies bright enough and large enough to be unambiguously identified and measured are included in galaxy surveys used to estimate cosmic shear. We demonstrate that because gravitational...
