Euclid: Calibrating photometric redshifts with spectroscopic cross-correlations

Yi Wang, Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

Cosmological constraints from key probes of the Euclid imaging survey rely critically on the accurate determination of the true redshift distributions, n(z); of tomographic redshift bins. We determine whether the mean redshift, < z >, of ten Euclid tomogra ...
