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…
A Spectroscopic Road Map for Cosmic Frontier: DESI, DESI-II, Stage-5
David J. Schlegel, Simone Ferraro, Greg Aldering +62
In this white paper, we present an experimental road map for spectroscopic experiments beyond DESI. DESI will be a transformative cosmological survey in the 2020s, mapping 40 milli…
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…
Target Selection and Validation of DESI Emission Line Galaxies
A. Raichoor, J. Moustakas, Jeffrey A. Newman +48
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) will precisely constrain cosmic expansion and the growth of structure by collecting 40 million extra-galactic redshifts across…
Target Selection and Validation of DESI Quasars
Edmond Chaussidon, Christophe Yèche, Nathalie Palanque-Delabrouille +54
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey will measure large-scale structures using quasars as direct tracers of dark matter in the redshift range 0.9<z<2.1 and using…
DESI Bright Galaxy Survey: Final Target Selection, Design, and Validation
ChangHoon Hahn, Michael J. Wilson, Omar Ruiz-Macias +57
Over the next five years, the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) will use 10 spectrographs with 5000 fibers on the 4m Mayall Telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory to…
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 DESI Survey Validation: Results from Visual Inspection of Bright Galaxies, Luminous Red Galaxies, and Emission Line Galaxies
Ting-Wen Lan, R. Tojeiro, E. Armengaud +79
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Survey has obtained a set of spectroscopic measurements of galaxies to validate the final survey design and target selections. To as…
Target Selection and Validation of DESI Luminous Red Galaxies
Rongpu Zhou, Biprateep Dey, Jeffrey A. Newman +46
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) is carrying out a 5-year survey that aims to measure the redshifts of tens of millions of galaxies and quasars, including 8 million…
Overview of the Instrumentation for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument
B. Abareshi, J. Aguilar, S. Ahlen +264
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) has embarked on an ambitious five-year survey to explore the nature of dark energy with spectroscopy of 40 million galaxies and quas…
