Correction factor as a function of PSF ellipticity for a weight function (top) and (bottom). The red and blue points show the results for the individual shear components using the grid-based simulations. The lines are the best-fit model (see text) to both components jointly. The bias is smaller overall for the larger weight function, whilst the dependence with PSF ellipticity is also reduced. The black squares in the top panel correspond to our baseline setup, with galaxies placed randomly. This suggests that blending has a small impact on the correction.
