KiDS-1000: Cosmology results
The Kilo Degree Survey (KiDS) is a purpose-built gravitational lensing survey with high quality images and a wide photometric coverage, resulting in very high fidelity data. Recently we analysed 1000 square degrees of KiDS data, finding the tightest constraints from cosmic shear analysis to date. In this talk I will go through the main cosmology results from KiDS-1000 using cosmic shear and its combination with spectroscopic surveys. I will show internal and external consistency tests and the impact of different systematics on this analysis.
