= KiDS Strong Lensing

This is the Kapteyn/OmegaCEN homepage for the KiDS Strong Lensing project.

== Status (last updated 25 Apr 2014)

** "No KiDS Lens No Glory" **

Preparing for the May 1-2, 2014 meeting at Kapteyn.  Euclid SLWG lens finding specialists will then apply their strong lens finding tools to KiDS data. 

== KiDS testset for lens finding

We have prepared a few datapacks:

== General description datapacks 

Each datapack contains:
* README.txt (general summary information)
* <datapackname>.pdf (more detailed information)
* per source cut-outs of coadd images and of associated weight images in the 4 KiDS filters u, g, r and i. 
   * size 100pix x 100pix = 20" x 20" 
* naming convention: <KiDS_tilename>__<radecOfSource>__<filtername>__<SLID__SIDofSourceList><r if random>__<size>.fits/weight.fits
   * SLID, SID are SourceList and Source IDentifiers in Astro-WISE system.
   * character r is appended if it are random cut-outs instead of centered on candidate sources
   * size is in pixel units (0.2"/pix)
* Units coadd images: mag=-2.5*log10(pixelvalue)
* units weight images: inverse variance images using same unit convention as coadd images (only background noise!).
* png thumbnails and cutouts.html (for browser view on cutouts)
* may2014meeting.py: python code used to generate datapack from Astro-WISE python prompt.

Content to be added next: 
* color images

== KiDS-LOWZ-LRG datapack description

We have prepared a set of 5322 LRG candidates. Selection is aimed to get z<~0.4 luminous red galaxies. They are selected photometrically in 69 KiDS tiles (each approx. 1sq.deg.) The photometric selection is based on the [[http://www.sdss3.org/dr9/algorithms/boss_galaxy_ts.php | BOSS LOWZ selection]], adapted to KiDS:

   * |c_perp| < 0.2
   * r < 13.5 + c_par/0.3
   * 16 < r < 19.6
   * SGCLASS_r==2 (means extended object in r)

where magnitudes are in 10 and 2 arcsec diameter apertures and we have used the following auxiliary colors:

   * cpar = 0.7(g - r) + 1.2[(r - i) - 0.18)]
   * cperp = (r - i) - (g - r)/4.0 - 0.18

== KiDS-HIGHZ-LRG datapack description

We have prepared a set of 7409 LRG candidates. They are selected photometrically in 80 KiDS tiles (each approx. 1sq.deg.)
The photometric selection is based on the [[http://www.sdss3.org/dr9/algorithms/boss_galaxy_ts.php | BOSS CMASS selection]], adapted to KiDS:
   * dperp > 0.55 (with dperp = (r-i) - (g-r)/8.0, and all magnitudes in 2arcsec apertures)
   * i < 19.86+ 1.6(dperp - 0.8)
   * 17.5 < i < 19.9
   * r - i < 2
   * SGCLASS_r==2 (means extended object in r)

== KiDS-TEST-QSO datapack description

We have prepared a testset of 5557 QSO candidates. Selection is aimed to get 0.5<z<2 QSOs. They are selected photometrically in 37 KiDS tiles (each approx. 1sq.deg.) The photometric selection is:

   * SGCLASS_r==1 (means point source in r)
   * 0.0<u-i<1.0
   * r<22.0

where magnitudes are in 2 arcsec diameter apertures.

== KiDS-TEST datapack description

We have prepared a testset for 564 LRG candidates. They are selected photometrically in 5 KiDS tiles (each approx. 1sq.deg.)
The photometric selection is same as HIGHZ-LRG datpack (see above).

== KiDS-TEST-LARGE-GAL datapack description

We have prepared a testset for 810 LRG candidates. Selection is same as KiDS-LOWZ-LRG (see above)

== KiDS-TEST-RANDOM datapack description

We have prepared a testset for 472 "random" KiDS locations. These are cut-outs centered on points uniformly selected in a square box of 1arcmin size around HIGHZ-LRG candidate locations in 5 KiDS tiles.


== KiDS-PSF datapack description

Konrad Kuijken has modeled the PSFs in u, g, r and i for one KiDS tile. Each at 5 locations in the FoV. Model is based on shapelet analysis. Hopefully they are representative enough in this early phase to test lens-finding tools on KiDS data. 
See release note at [[projects:kids:data_deliveries:kids-eso-dr1:releasenotes|KiDS-ESO-DR1 Consortium Portal]] for a typical distribution of seeing in KiDS data.

== Input KiDS area

We can use 173 tiles (~173 sq.deg.) in the KiDS area that have completed coverage (i.e., u,g,r and i). This set is called KiDS-INT-DR3.
