Systematic Effects in Galaxy-Galaxy Lensing with DESI
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey will measure spectroscopic redshifts for millions of galaxies across roughly $14,000 \, \mathrm{deg}^2$ of the sky. Cross-correlating targets in the DESI survey with complementary imaging surveys allows us to measure and analyze shear distortions caused by gravitational lensing in unprecedented detail. In this work, we analyze a series of mock catalogs with ray-traced gravitational lensing and increasing sophistication to estimate systemati…

The Dynamics of Debris Disk Creation in Neutron Star Mergers
The detection of GW170817/AT2017gfo inaugurated an era of multimessenger astrophysics, in which gravitational wave and multiwavelength photon observations complement one another to provide unique insight on astrophysical systems. A broad theoretical consensus exists in which the photon phenomenology of neutron star mergers largely rests upon the evolution of the small amount of matter left on bound orbits around the black hole or massive neutron star remaining after the merger. Because this acc…
