AuriDESI: Mock Catalogues for the DESI Milky Way Survey
Namitha Kizhuprakkat, Andrew P. Cooper, Alexander H. Riley +31
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument Milky Way Survey (DESI MWS) will explore the assembly history of the Milky Way by characterising remnants of ancient dwarf galaxy accretion…
The DESI Early Data Release White Dwarf Catalogue
Christopher J. Manser, Paula Izquierdo, Boris T. Gänsicke +51
The Early Data Release (EDR) of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) comprises spectroscopy obtained from 2020 December 14 to 2021 June 10. White dwarfs were targeted by…
Unraveling emission line galaxy conformity at z~1 with DESI early data
Sihan Yuan, Risa H. Wechsler, Yunchong Wang +32
Emission line galaxies (ELGs) are now the preeminent tracers of large-scale structure at z>0.8 due to their high density and strong emission lines, which enable accurate redshift m…
The DESI One-Percent Survey: Evidence for Assembly Bias from Low-Redshift Counts-in-Cylinders Measurements
Alan N. Pearl, Andrew R. Zentner, Jeffrey A. Newman +28
We explore the galaxy-halo connection information that is available in low-redshift samples from the early data release of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). We model…
The DESI One-Percent Survey: A concise model for galactic conformity of ELGs
Hongyu Gao, Y. P. Jing, Kun Xu +27
Galactic conformity is the phenomenon in which a galaxy of a certain physical property is correlated with its neighbors of the same property, implying a possible causal relationshi…
3D Correlations in the Lyman- Forest from Early DESI Data
Calum Gordon, Andrei Cuceu, Jonás Chaves-Montero +56
We present the first measurements of Lyman- (Ly) forest correlations using early data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). We measure the auto-correlation of…
