Comparing the Near-infrared Spectral Energy Distributions from Different Stellar Population Synthesis Models with SPHEREx Observations
Jeong Hwan Lee, Minjin Kim, Woong-Seob Jeong +16
While stellar population synthesis (SPS) models have been widely used for spectral analysis in optical wavelengths, their characteristics remain uncertain in the near-infrared (NIR…
A UV-to-Near-infrared QSO Composite Spectrum from the SPHEREx All-Sky Survey
Minjin Kim, Yongjung Kim, Woong-Seob Jeong +19
We present a composite spectrum of type 1 SDSS QSOs (median ), constructed using SPHEREx spectrophotometric data and covering a rest-frame wavelength…
The SPHEREx Image and Spectrophotometry Processing Pipeline
Rachel Akeson, Gregory P. Dubois-Felsmann, Brendan P. Crill +41
In this paper, we describe the SPHEREx image and spectrophotometry data processing pipeline, an infrastructure and software system designed to produce calibrated spectral images an…
SPHEREx 0.75 to 5 m Spectra for a Sequence of Nearby Brown Dwarfs
Zafar Rustamkulov, J. Kirkpatrick, Rachel Akeson +21
The SPHEREx all-sky survey has now measured the R40-100 infrared spectra of thousands of nearby brown dwarfs in the chemically rich 0.75-5 m range. The survey's wide spec…
SPHEREx mapping of diffuse PAH and H II emission in the Galactic plane
Giulia Murgia, Ari J. Cukierman, Brandon S. Hensley +29
We present preliminary SPHEREx maps of diffuse Galactic emission tracing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and ionized hydrogen gas, and we study their relationship across th…
Spectral response of SPHEREx
Howard Hui, Jamie Bock, Samuel Condon +31
The Spectro Photometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization, and Ices Explorer (SPHEREx) is conducting the first all-sky near infrared spectral survey spanning 0.…
