Self Calibrated Galaxy Groups from the DESI DR1 Bright Galaxy Survey

I. Williams, J. Tinker, K. Wang +45

We present a galaxy group catalog built from Data Release 1 of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Bright Galaxy Survey, using the Self Calibrated Group Finder. The alg…

The Binary Fraction of Milky Way Field Stars in DESI: Dependence on Chemical Abundance

Tian Qiu, Wenting Wang, Sergey E. Koposov +39

Binary populations encode information about the physical conditions of star formation and the subsequent evolution of stellar populations. Adopting a statistical method based on mu…

Extending the Stellar-to-Halo Mass Relation to Dwarf Galaxies with DESI DR1

Z. Shao, Y. Zu, A. Salcedo +51

Constraining the dark matter halos of the smallest galaxies offers fundamental insights into the nature of dark matter and stellar feedback. Using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Ins…

Linking neutral gas inflows and outflows to offsets in the star-forming main sequence and mass-metallicity relation

S. Weng, M. Pieri, A. Saintonge +40

Gas inflows and outflows regulate galaxy growth, but direct observational links between measured gas flows and galaxy scaling relations remain limited. Using ~6,000 star-forming ga…

Spatially-Resolved Spectra of Diffuse Galactic Light using 10.8 M DESI Sky Fibers

Andrew K. Saydjari, Bruce T. Draine, Timothy D. Brandt +49

Using 10.8 million ``blank'' sky spectra from the DESI Year 3 dataset, we measure the diffuse galactic light (DGL) spectrum in the optical at spectral resolution by c…

Improved constraints on the Milky Way potential using the M68 stream and DESI spectroscopic data

Carles G. Palau, Wenting Wang, Jiaxin Han +41

We present a selection of stars belonging to the stellar stream of the M68 (NGC 4590) globular cluster, also known as Fjörm. This star selection is an improvement on previous ones…

Cosmic Pairs: A DESI Census of Dual and Offset AGN as Precursors to Massive Black Hole Binaries

Ekaterine Dadiani, Antonella Palmese, Yihao Zhou +52

We present a systematic census of dual and offset active galactic nuclei (AGN) using spectroscopic data from the first data release (DR1) of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrumen…

Identifying Quasars from the DESI Bright Galaxy Survey

S. Juneau, R. Canning, D. M. Alexander +56

The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) cosmology survey includes a Bright Galaxy Survey (BGS) which will yield spectra for over ten million bright galaxies (r<20.2 AB mag)…

The DESI Survey Validation: Results from Visual Inspection of the Quasar Survey Spectra

David M. Alexander, Tamara M. Davis, E. Chaussidon +69

A key component of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey validation (SV) is a detailed visual inspection (VI) of the optical spectroscopic data to quantify key sur…
