The practical use of cosmic shear as a probe of gravity
This thesis deals with the practical application of Weak Gravitational Lensing (WGL) as a tool for studying two of the most challenging problems in modern cosmology: the nature of dark energy and tests of Einstein’s General Relativity. To be a useful tool, WGL must be able to put robust constraints...
