Researchers from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory developed an innovative approach to map cosmic shear.

The team focused on quantifying convergence, a measure of how much mass is responsible for lensing at a given location.

With this model, they transformed simulated shear data from specific points into predictions of shear across the sky.
