DESI Emission-line Galaxies: Clustering Dependence on Stellar Mass and [OII] Luminosity
T. Hagen, K. S. Dawson, Z. Zheng +49
We measure the projected two-point correlation functions of emission-line galaxies (ELGs) from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) One-Percent Survey and model their de…
Tomography of the gamma-ray sky from cross-correlation with DESI DR2 and unWISE galaxies
Alex Krolewski, Neal Dalal, Will J. Percival +39
We study the origin of extragalactic gamma-ray emission observed by Fermi-LAT, using the cross-correlation of the gamma-ray sky with maps of large-scale structure provided by the D…
Tracing the Cosmic Evolution of the Cool Circumgalactic Medium of Luminous Red Galaxies with DESI Year 1 Data
Yu-Ling Chang, Ting-Wen Lan, J. Xavier Prochaska +44
We investigate the properties of the cool circumgalactic medium (CGM) of massive galaxies and their cosmic evolution. By using the year 1 dataset of luminous red galaxies (LRGs) an…
DESI Strong Lens Foundry II: DESI Spectroscopy for Strong Lens Candidates
Xiaosheng Huang, Jose Carlos Inchausti, Christopher J. Storfer +59
We present the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Strong Lensing Secondary Target Program. This is a spectroscopic follow-up program for strong gravitational lens candidat…
Quality Assessment of Spectroscopic Data Reduction Pipelines Using Artificial Intelligence: Scrutinizing Data Release 2 from the DESI Survey
V. Torres-Gomez, J. Suarez-Perez, J. E. Forero-Romero +45
Large spectroscopic surveys now collect data at a scale that makes traditional visual inspection impractical. We present an unsupervised pipeline for spectroscopic quality assessme…
The DESI Y1 RR Lyrae catalog II: The metallicity dependency of pulsational properties, the shape of the RR Lyrae instability strip, and metal rich RR Lyrae
Gustavo E. Medina, Ting S. Li, C. Allende Prieto +39
RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) are valuable probes of both Milky Way assembly and stellar-evolution physics. Using a sample 6,240 RRLs obtained in the first year of the Dark Energy Spectros…
The DESI DR1 peculiar velocity survey: growth rate measurements from the galaxy power spectrum
F. Qin, C. Blake, C. Howlett +63
The large-scale structure of the Universe and its evolution encapsulate a wealth of cosmological information. A powerful means of unlocking this knowledge lies in measuring the aut…
DESI DR2 Reference Mocks: Clustering results from UCHUU ELGs and QSOs
R. Vaisakh, J. Lasker, R. Kehoe +44
High-redshift galaxy clustering provides a powerful probe of the growth of structure, testing models of dark matter, dark energy, and galaxy formation during the epoch when the Uni…
Probing cosmic velocities with the pairwise kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich signal in DESI Bright Galaxy Sample DR1 and ACT DR6

We present a measurement of the pairwise kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (kSZ) signal using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Bright Galaxy Sample (BGS) Data Release 1 (…
DESI Data Release 2 ELGs: Property-dependent subsamples, imaging systematics, and clustering
T. Hagen, K. S. Dawson, Z. Zheng +42
Using emission-line galaxies (ELGs) from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Data Release 2, we evaluate a property-dependent correction to imaging systematics. We deri…
The DESI DR1 Peculiar Velocity Survey: The Tully-Fisher Distance Catalog
K. Douglass, S. BenZvi, A. G. Kim +64
We calibrate the Tully-Fisher relation (TFR) using observations of spiral galaxies taken during the first year (DR1) of the DESI galaxy redshift survey. The rotational velocities o…

We report the first measurement of primordial non-Gaussianity (PNG), parameterized by , in the configuration space two-point correlation function (2pcf). We employ…
Inference of matter power spectrum at z=0 using DESI DR1 Full-Shape data
R. Cereskaite, E. Mueller, C. Howlett +48
Measurements of galaxy distributions at large cosmic distances capture clustering from the past. In this study, we use a cosmological model to translate these observations into the…
