Abstract
We propose a new method for Point Spread Function (PSF) correction in weak gravitational lensing shear analysis using an artificial image with the same ellipticity as the lensed image. This avoids the systematic error associated with the approximation in PSF correction used in previous approaches. We test the new method with simulated objects which have Gaussian or Cersic profiles smeared by a Gaussian PSF, and confirm that there is no systematic error.
