Cosmology from Photometric Redshift Surveys
The next generation of imaging surveys , e.g. the Dark Energy Survey, PanSTARRS, LSST, Euclid and others, will rely on accurate of photometric redshifts for the determination of cosmological quantities such as dark energy and neutrino masses. The talk will describe photometric redshift methods and their impact on analysing galaxy clustering and weak lensing data and on the derived cosmological parameters.
