6-year survey, observations starting September 2008. Operations proposal to DoE positively reviewed but allocation still not known; partner contributions (29+) higher than projected. While instrument upgrades are in process, continue with more imaging of the Southern Galactic Cap, plus SEGUE-2. MOU with <strong>Fermilab</strong> enables four scientists to participate (in addition to JP and RK) in science analysis. This gives <strong>Fermilab</strong> some access to spectroscopy of LRG’s and quasars.
• Study Dark Energy using The Dark Energy Survey 4 complementary* techniques: I. Cluster Counts II. Weak Lensing III. Baryon Acoustic Oscillations IV. Supernovae • Two multiband surveys: 5000 deg 2 g, r, i, z,Y smaller area repeat (SNe) • Build new 3 deg 2 camera and Data management sytem Survey 2011-2016 (525 nights) Blanco 4-meter at CTIO *in systematics & in cosmological parameter degeneracies *geometric+structure growth: test Dark Energy vs. Gravity
