Stacked Reverberation Mapping of High Redshift Quasars in DESI. I. Feasibility Analysis
Rahma Alfarsy, R. E. A. Canning, Eva-Maria Mueller +49
The broad line region of quasars has long been probed by reverberation mapping techniques that measure time lags between continuum and broad emission line variations. Stacked rever…
Beyond traditional emission-line diagnostics: using autoencoders to uncover active galactic nuclei in DESI spectra
J. A. Alcolea, M. Siudek, M. Eriksen +49
The growing volume of spectroscopic data in modern surveys motivates data-driven approaches that complement traditional emission-line diagnostics for active galactic nuclei (AGN) i…
Weak Evolution of Cosmic Atomic Hydrogen over the Past 4.5 Billion Years
Chuan-Peng Zhang, Hong Guo, Yizhou Gu +49
The cosmic star formation rate density (CSFRD) has declined sharply toward the present day, but the roles of the atomic and molecular gas reservoirs remain uncertain. We measure th…
Unveiling Hidden Lyman Alpha Emitters in the DESI DR1 Data
Jui-Kuan Chan, Ting-Wen Lan, J. Xavier Prochaska +39
We present an automatic method based on machine-learning convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture to detect Lyman alpha emitters (LAE) hidden in the Data Release 1 spectrosc…
ODIN: Spectroscopic Validation of Ly-Emitting Galaxy Samples with DESI
Ethan Pinarski, Govind Ramgopal, Nicole Firestone +65
The One-hundred-deg^2 DECam Imaging in Narrowbands (ODIN) survey is conducting the widest-field deep narrow-band imaging of the equatorial and southern skies. ODIN uses three custo…
Highly Efficient Selection of High-Redshift Emission-Line Galaxies for future DESI-like surveys with Deep Multi-band Imaging
Yoquelbin Salcedo Hernandez, Jeffrey A. Newman, Brett. H. Andrews +53
Emission-line galaxies (ELGs) are an important tracer of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) and large-scale structure (LSS) at . In this work, we investigate the feasibility…
Measurements of quasar proximity zones with the Ly forest of DESI Y1 quasars
Ryuichiro Hada, Paul Martini, David H. Weinberg +41
The intergalactic medium (IGM) around quasars is shaped by their dense environments and by their excess ionizing radiation, forming a "quasar proximity zone" whose size and anisotr…
The DESI Single Fiber Lens Search. I. Four Thousand Spectroscopically Selected Galaxy-Galaxy Gravitational Lens Candidates
Juliana S. M. Karp, David J. Schlegel, Xiaosheng Huang +47
We present 4,110 strong gravitational lens candidates, 3,887 of which are new discoveries, selected from a sample of 5,837,154 luminous red galaxies (LRGs) observed with the Dark E…
Effect of local environment on Ly line profile in DESI/ODIN LAEs
Ana Sofía M. Uzsoy, Arjun Dey, Anand Raichoor +51
Lyman-Alpha Emitters (LAEs) are star-forming galaxies with significant Ly emission and are often used as tracers of large-scale structure at high redshift. We explore the relati…
