Fiducial-Cosmology-dependent systematics for the DESI 2024 BAO Analysis

A. Pérez-Fernández, L. Medina-Varela, R. Ruggeri +61

When measuring the Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) scale from galaxy surveys, one typically assumes a fiducial cosmology when converting redshift measurements into comoving dist…

Extensive analysis of reconstruction algorithms for DESI 2024 baryon acoustic oscillations

X. Chen, Z. Ding, E. Paillas +64

Reconstruction of the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) signal has been a standard procedure in BAO analyses over the past decade and has helped to improve the BAO parameter precis…

Full calibration of the tomographic redshift distribution from the HSC PDR3 Shape Catalog with DESI

J. Choppin de Janvry, S. Gontcho A Gontcho, U. Seljak +53

The calibration of tomographic redshift distributions is essential for cosmological analysis of weak lensing data. In this work, we calibrate all four tomographic bins of the Hyper…
