Description
The DES Collaboration observed 5000 sq. deg. of the southern sky during six years and measured the position on the sky, photometric redshift and shape of about 200 million galaxies, while simultaneously measuring the light curves of over 1500 type-Ia supernovae (SNe). With these two unprecedented samples, DES has determined cosmological parameters related to the expansion of the universe using SNe and the Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) feature in the galaxy sample, as well as cosmological parameters related to the growth of structure in the universe using the weak lensing effect in distant galaxies and its combination with the angular distribution of nearby galaxies (the so-called 3x2pt measurement). In this talk, I will present the final DES results on SNe and BAO and their combination, as well as the latest, possibly final, 3x2pt results.
