5 Is dark energy simply a cosmological constant? What is the geometry / curvature of the Universe? Is General Relativity the correct theory of gravity on cosmic scales? How cold is cold dark matter? What are the density distributions / profiles of cosmic structures (Galaxies, Groups, Clusters, etc.) at different scales?...... The Scientific Goals of Weak Lensing

36 If one plans to calibrate the multiplicative factor “a+b κ ”, one should pay attention to its dependence on “ κ ”, which, though, is not known a priori in observations.

45 Outline: Introduction & Motivation A New Idea of Measuring Cosmic Shear Some General Issues Summary

46 Summary We find that it has many advantages to measure the cosmic shear using the image power spectrum in Fourier space … … It corrects for PSF model independently, with simple and rigorous math; Effects due to photon noise is removed statistically, including images processed/combined with Multidrizzle ; Accurate to the second order in shear/convergence ; Pixelation effect is not important as long as the pixel size is less than 1/3 of the FWHM of the PSF (no dithering case); No need to identify the centroid of the image ; Fast image processing : < 10 -2 CPU seconds/Galaxy; S / N per galaxy Increased; Immune to misidentification of stars as galaxies.

47 Summary The remaining problems are: Measurement of the PSF ; Galaxy weighting ; Measurement of the correlation functions of shear ; Theoretical prediction accuracy ;......
