Cosmic Shear Analysis in the DECam Local Volume Exploration Survey
We forecast cosmological constraints and develop a cosmic shear analysis pipeline for the DECam Local Volume Exploration Survey (DELVE). We test the effects of two different intrinsic alignment frameworks (TATT and NLA) on simulated data vectors. In addition, we examine the impact of baryon contamination and apply scale cuts to reduce its weight. We find the forecast results to be as constraining as the DES Y3 cosmological parameter measurements.
