The DESI Experiment Part II: Instrument Design
DESI Collaboration, Amir Aghamousa, Jessica Aguilar +290
DESI (Dark Energy Spectropic Instrument) is a Stage IV ground-based dark energy experiment that will study baryon acoustic oscillations and the growth of structure through redshift…
Preliminary Target Selection for the DESI Emission Line Galaxy (ELG) Sample
Anand Raichoor, Daniel J. Eisenstein, Tanveer Karim +26
DESI will precisely constrain cosmic expansion and the growth of structure by collecting 35 million redshifts across 80% of cosmic history and one third of the sky to s…
Cosmological Distance Measurement of 12 Nearby Supernovae IIP with ROTSE-IIIB
Govinda Dhungana, Robert Kehoe, Ryan Staten +14
We present cosmological analysis of 12 nearby () Type IIP supernovae (SNe IIP) observed with the ROTSE-IIIb telescope. To achieve precise photometry, we present a new image…
SN 2010kd: Photometric and Spectroscopic Analysis of a Slow-Decaying Superluminous Supernova
Amit Kumar, Shashi Bhushan Pandey, Reka Konyves-Toth +21
This paper presents data and analysis of SN 2010kd, a low-redshift () H-deficient superluminous supernova (SLSN), based on ultraviolet/optical photometry and optical spe…
Overview of the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys
Arjun Dey, David J. Schlegel, Dustin Lang +157
The DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys are a combination of three public projects (the Dark Energy Camera Legacy Survey, the Beijing-Arizona Sky Survey, and the Mayall z-band Legacy Surve…
Preliminary Target Selection for the DESI Quasar (QSO) Sample
Christophe Yèche, Nathalie Palanque-Delabrouille, Charles-Antoine Claveau +24
The DESI survey will measure large-scale structure using quasars as direct tracers of dark matter in the redshift range and using quasar Ly- forests at . We…
Preliminary Target Selection for the DESI Luminous Red Galaxy (LRG) Sample
Rongpu Zhou, Jeffrey A. Newman, Kyle S. Dawson +23
The DESI survey will observe more than 8 million candidate luminous red galaxies (LRGs) in the redshift range . Here we present a preliminary version of the DESI LRG tar…
The DESI Experiment Part I: Science,Targeting, and Survey Design
DESI Collaboration, Amir Aghamousa, Jessica Aguilar +290
DESI (Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument) is a Stage IV ground-based dark energy experiment that will study baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) and the growth of structure through…
