Abstract

We will present KARMMA, a field-level inference designed to enable joint inference of cosmology and the convergence field from cosmic shear data. KARMMA is a full-sky Bayesian algorithm that forward-models the convergence field as an augmented lognormal realization. Using N-body simulations, we generate mock cosmic shear observations and use these to validate the cosmological inferences from KARMMA. We find field-level inference with LSST Y1-like data has the potential to improve constraints on the dark energy equation of state by a factor of six relative to a standard power-spectrum approach.
