Abstract: We present a simulation analysis of weak gravitational lensing flexion and shear measurement using shapelet decomposition, and identify differences between flexion and
shear measurement noise in deep survey data.
Taking models of galaxies from the Hubble Space Telescope Ultra Deep Field (HUDF) and applying a correction for the HUDF point spread function we generate lensed simulations of deep, opti... ▽ More We present a simulation analysis of weak gravitational lensing flexion and shear measurement using shapelet decomposition, and identify differences between flexion and

This
noise is either systemic (caused by
measurement errors, etc) or aleatory which is contributions from everything else we don't yet fully comprehend, or can't because of the
shear number of other paths.
