Testing the accuracy of 3D-HST photometric redshift estimates as
  reference samples for deep weak lensing studies
  Accurate weak lensing mass estimates of clusters are needed in order to
calibrate mass proxies for the cosmological exploitation of galaxy cluster
surveys. Such measurements require accurate knowledge of the redshift
distribution of the weak lensing source galaxies. In this context, we
investigate the accuracy of photometric redshifts (photo-$z$s) computed by the
3D-HST team for the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy
Survey fields, which provide a relevant photometric reference data set for deep
weak lensing studies. Through the comparison to spectroscopic redshifts and
photo-$z$s based on very deep data from the Hubble Ultra Deep Field, we
identify catastrophic redshift outliers in the 3D-HST/CANDELS catalogue. These
would significantly bias weak lensing results if not accounted for. We
investigate the cause of these outliers and demonstrate that the interpolation
of spectral energy distribution (SED) templates and a well-selected combination
of photometric data can reduce the net impact for weak lensing studies.
