Exploiting Cross Correlations and Joint Analyses
  In this report, we present a wide variety of ways in which information from
multiple probes of dark energy may be combined to obtain additional information
not accessible when they are considered separately. Fundamentally, because all
major probes are affected by the underlying distribution of matter in the
regions studied, there exist covariances between them that can provide
information on cosmology. Combining multiple probes allows for more accurate
(less contaminated by systematics) and more precise (since there is
cosmological information encoded in cross-correlation statistics) measurements
of dark energy. The potential of cross-correlation methods is only beginning to
be realized. By bringing in information from other wavelengths, the
capabilities of the existing probes of dark energy can be enhanced and
systematic effects can be mitigated further. We present a mixture of work in
progress and suggestions for future scientific efforts. Given the scope of
future dark energy experiments, the greatest gains may only be realized with
more coordination and cooperation between multiple project teams; we recommend
that this interchange should begin sooner, rather than later, to maximize
scientific gains.
