abstract

We perform a blinded cosmology analysis with cosmic shear two-point correlation functions (2PCFs) measured from more than 25 million galaxies in the Hyper Suprime-Cam three-year shear catalog in four tomographic redshift bins ranging from 0.3 to 1.5. After conservative masking and galaxy selection, the survey covers 416 deg$^2$ of the northern sky with an effective galaxy number density of 15 arcmin$^{-2}$ over the four redshift bins. The 2PCFs adopted for cosmology analysis are measured in the angular range: $7.1 < \theta/{\rm arcmin} < 56.6$ for $\xi_+$ and $31.2 <\theta/{\rm arcmin} < 248$ for $\xi_-$, with a total signal-to-noise ratio of 26.6. We apply a conservative, wide, flat prior on the photometric redshift errors on the last two tomographic bins, and the relative magnitudes of the cosmic shear amplitude across four redshift bins allow us to calibrate the photometric redshift errors. With this flat prior on redshift errors, we find $\Omega_{\rm m}=0.256_{-0.044}^{+0.056}$ and $S_8\equiv \sigma_8 \sqrt{\Omega_{\rm m}/0.3}=0.769_{-0.034}^{+0.031}$ (both 68\% CI) for a flat $\Lambda$ cold dark matter cosmology. We find, after unblinding, that our constraint on $S_8$ is consistent with the Fourier space cosmic shear and the 3$\times$2pt analyses on the same HSC dataset. We carefully study the potential systematics from astrophysical and systematic model uncertainties in our fiducial analysis using synthetic data, and report no biases (including projection bias in the posterior space) greater than $0.5\sigma$ in the estimation of $S_8$. Our analysis hints that the mean redshifts of the two highest tomographic bins are higher than initially estimated. In addition, a number of consistency tests are conducted to assess the robustness of our analysis. Comparing our result with Planck-2018 cosmic microwave background observations, we find a ~$2\sigma$ tension for the $\Lambda$CDM model.

  1. Phantom-divide crossing and suppressed structure growth in kinetically braided dark energy with momentum exchange

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A linearly stable kinetic-braiding dark-energy model with CDM momentum exchange realizes upward phantom-divide crossing and weak CDM gravitational clustering, altering matter and CMB spectra.

  2. Revisiting observational constraints on coupled exponential quintessence with energy and momentum transfers: degeneracy with massive neutrinos

    astro-ph.CO 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Allowing the neutrino mass to vary removes the 2σ evidence for momentum transfer between dark energy and dark matter in coupled quintessence, via a degeneracy with the energy-exchange coupling.

  3. Cosmic Shear constraints from HSC Year 3 with clustering calibration of the tomographic redshift distributions from DESI

    astro-ph.CO 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Reanalysis of HSC Y3 cosmic shear with DESI clustering redshift calibration yields S8 = 0.805 ± 0.018, a 1.8× error reduction and upward shift toward Planck cosmology.

  4. Full calibration of the tomographic redshift distribution from the HSC PDR3 Shape Catalog with DESI

    astro-ph.CO 2025-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Clustering redshifts with DESI DR1/DR2 calibrate all four HSC Y3 tomographic bins; bins 3 and 4 shift to higher redshift (dz3=-0.039, dz4=-0.048) but less than cosmic shear analyses implied.

  5. Cosmology from a joint analysis of second and third order shear statistics with Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam Year 3 data

    astro-ph.CO 2025-08 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    The body is a DES-Y3 analysis showing a 111% figure-of-merit gain from adding aperture-mass skewness to two-point shear, but the abstract's HSC-Y3 headline numbers do not appear anywhere in the text.

  6. Cosmology and Source Redshift Constraints from Galaxy Clustering and Tomographic Weak Lensing with HSC Y3 and SDSS using the Point-Mass Correction Model

    astro-ph.CO 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Galaxy clustering plus weak lensing from HSC Y3 and SDSS gives S8 = 0.780 ± 0.030 and lensing-only redshift offsets Δz3 = -0.112, Δz4 = -0.185.

  7. An optimal quadratic estimator for window-free cosmic shear power spectra

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A window-free quadratic estimator that is statistically optimal when the true covariance is known improves cosmic shear E-mode precision by 5–15% at ℓ≲500 and suppresses E→B leakage.

  8. Modelling Galaxy Clustering and Tomographic Galaxy-Galaxy Lensing with HSC Y3 and SDSS using the Point-Mass Correction Model and Redshift Self-Calibration

    astro-ph.CO 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Combining SDSS clustering with HSC Y3 galaxy-galaxy lensing, with a point-mass correction down to 2 Mpc/h, gives S8 = 0.804 ± 0.051 and self-calibrated redshift shifts for the two highest source bins.

  9. The Hubble tension: A decade review

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 3.0 of 10

    Pure early or late fixes to the Hubble tension are tightly constrained; remaining options are combined early-late interacting dark energy or new physics at the local-to-homogeneous transition.
