Source Distributions of Cosmic Shear Surveys in Efficiency Space
We show that the lensing efficiency of cosmic shear generically has a simple shape, even in the case of a tomographic survey with badly behaved photometric redshifts. We argue that source distributions for cosmic shear can therefore be more effectively parametrised in “efficiency space”. Using reali...
