Description

The Dark Energy Survey (DES) is a large galaxy survey designed to address the fundamental question of the accelerating expansion of the universe and uncover the nature of the dark energy. It started the data taking in 2013, providing high quality imaging for 1/8 of the sky. The talk will present the current status of the project and the most recent results, mainly based on data from the first season of observations, where an exhaustive analysis for the control of systematic effects has been performed.
