The MegaMapper: A Stage-5 Spectroscopic Instrument Concept for the Study of Inflation and Dark Energy
David J. Schlegel, Juna A. Kollmeier, Greg Aldering +86
In this white paper, we present the MegaMapper concept. The MegaMapper is a proposed ground-based experiment to measure Inflation parameters and Dark Energy from galaxy redshifts a…
The Spectroscopic Data Processing Pipeline for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument
J. Guy, S. Bailey, A. Kremin +55
We describe the spectroscopic data processing pipeline of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), which is conducting a redshift survey of about 40 million galaxies and qu…
The Target-selection Pipeline for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument
Adam D. Myers, John Moustakas, Stephen Bailey +51
In 2021 May, the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) began a 5 yr survey of approximately 50 million total extragalactic and Galactic targets. The primary DESI dark-time ta…
The Robotic Multi-Object Focal Plane System of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI)
Joseph Harry Silber, Parker Fagrelius, Kevin Fanning +97
A system of 5,020 robotic fiber positioners was installed in 2019 on the Mayall Telescope, at Kitt Peak National Observatory. The robots automatically re-target their optical fiber…
