Cosmology is a data intensive field that will become more so in the coming years. In this scenario, GPU-computing is becoming very relevant for analysing large catalogs within a reasonable amount of time. In this work, we investigate the acceleration of the analysis by using a hybrid MPI-CUDA implementation.
Light rays are deflected when travelling through a gravitational potential: this phenomenon is known as gravitational lensing. It causes the observed shapes of distant galaxies to be very slightly distorted by the intervening matter in the Universe, as their light travels towards us. This distortion is called cosmic shear. By measuring this component it is possible to derive the properties of the...
