21 Results are compa:ble with CMB S 8 Strongest constraints on intrinsic alignments to date. Neutrino masses are not constrained further. Photo-z and shear systematics are not limiting.

27 With these ingredients we proceed to infer cosmology for ΛCDM and wcdm Data vector (3x2pt stats): w(θ), γ t (θ), ξ ± (θ) for 4x5 bins 20 nuisance parameters (photo-z biases, multiplicative shear biases, lens galaxy bias, IA parameters). 6/7 cosmo parameters (A S! S 8, n S, Ω m, Ω b, Ω ν, h, (w)) Redundancy rule of twos: 2 shear catalogs 2 photo-z validations 2 cosmological estimator codes 2 levels of blinding We use evidence ratio to check compatibility Covariance is computed theoretically, validated with sims. (E.Krause et al. 2017)
28 Individual constraints in ΛCDM are compa:ble so we can unblind
29 Evidence ra:o shows substan:al compa:bility with Planck R=4.2 so combination is possible S 8 Still compatible after changing assumptions on priors Adding low redshift probes increases compatibility Ω m
30 In ΛCDM, we constrain S 8 and Ω m to a similar level as Planck S 8 Ω m DES Collabora+on 2017
31 wcdm is not par:cularly favored or disfavored, w compa:ble with - 1 S 8 Ω m w = 0.36 DES Collabora+on 2017
32 Bayesian evidence ra:o points to compa:bility with Planck S 8 Strong evidence for IA with photometric survey. Lens bias constrained to 10% DES Collabora+on 2017 Ω m
33 DES- Y1 in combina:on with previous measurements provide strongest constaints to ΛCDM to date DES-Y1 on its own is compatible with high-z inferred cosmological parameters wcdm is not favored S 8 DES+Planck shift h towards local measurements Neutrino mass bounds slightly loosened DES Collabora+on 2017 Ω m

37 We detect objects in coadded images, and measure them in multiple ways Y1 Astrometric precision: ~0.3 arcsecs Y1 Photometric precision: 1-2 % Detect on r+i+z combined image Coadded photometry (SExtractor): measure on coadded images in each band Multi-object fitting photometry: measure using multi-epoch, multi-object, multiband fit and subtract neighbors light. 37
38 This process produces 139 million objects. We have to weed out the bad objects and enhance/ complement their measurements Objects can have incongruent colors, inconsistent magnitudes or positions, problems arising during their processing. Faulty regions with large amounts of reflections, satellite trails or else. Foreground object areas. Photometric calibration is enhanced via SLR corrections. Stars and galaxies have to be separated for different analyses. A. Drlica-Wagner, I.S et al
