DES15E2mlf: A Spectroscopically Confirmed Superluminous Supernova that Exploded 3.5 Gyr After the Big Bang

Y. -C. Pan, R. J. Foley, M. Smith +63

We present the Dark Energy Survey (DES) discovery of DES15E2mlf, the most distant superluminous supernova (SLSN) spectroscopically confirmed to date. The light curves and Gemini sp…

Weak Lensing Analysis of SPT selected Galaxy Clusters using Dark Energy Survey Science Verification Data

C. Stern, J. P. Dietrich, S. Bocquet +70

We present weak lensing (WL) mass constraints for a sample of massive galaxy clusters detected by the South Pole Telescope (SPT) via the Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect (SZE). We use $gri…

DESI Emission Line Galaxies: Unveiling the Diversity of [OII] Profiles and its Links to Star Formation and Morphology

Ting-Wen Lan, J. Xavier Prochaska, John Moustakas +34

We study the [OII] profiles of emission line galaxies (ELGs) from the Early Data Release of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). To this end, we decompose and classify…
