Day 29

Thursday.  Late for KIAS LSS conference (again).



LBL INPA
Seeing in the Dark: Cosmic Shear in SDSS
Eric Huff

250 deg^2 of SDSS WL shear measurement.  Systematic errors for this measurement are probably negligible compared to the statistical errors.  Omega_m and sigma8 at z=0.6 constrained.  
Also use galaxy scaling relations to measure lensing magnification with many times the S/N of previous magnification results.  Could be superior to shear.

LBL RPM
Quantum Electrodynamics and Ultra-High Intensities
Thomas Heinzl

Strong-field quantum electrodynamics with high-intensity

1106.5104
Modeling the tidal connection between in and around galaxy clusters
Hyunmi (賢美)Song, Jounghun Lee
