E/B mode decomposition of HSC-Y1 cosmic shear using COSEBIs: Cosmological constraints and comparison with other two-point statistics

We perform a cosmic shear analysis of Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program first-year data (HSC-Y1) using complete orthogonal sets of E/B-integrals (COSEBIs) to derive cosmological constraints. We compute E/B-mode COSEBIs from cosmic shear two-point correlation functions measured on an angular range of 4' < theta < 180'. We perform a standard Bayesian likelihood analysis for cosmological inference from the measured E-mode COSEBIs, including contributions from intrinsic alignments of galaxies as well as systematic effects from point spread function model errors, shear calibration uncertainties, and source redshift distribution errors. We adopt a covariance matrix derived from realistic mock catalogs constructed from full-sky gravitational lensing simulations that fully take account of the survey geometry and measurement noise. For a flat A cold dark matter model, we find S-8 sigma(8)root Omega(m)/0.3 = 0.809(-0.026)(+0.036). We carefully check the robustness of the cosmological results against astrophysical modeling uncertainties and systematic uncertainties in measurements, and find that none of them has a significant impact on the cosmological constraints. We also find that the measured B-mode COSEBIs are consistent with zero. We examine, using mock HSC-Y1 data, the consistency of our S-8 constraints with those derived from the other cosmic shear two-point statistics, the power spectrum analysis by Hikage et al. (2019, PASJ, 71, 43) and the two-point correlation function analysis by Hamana et al. (2020, PASJ, 72, 16), which adopt the same HSC-Y1 shape catalog, and find that all the S-8 constraints are consistent with each other, although the expected correlations between derived S-8 constraints are weak.
