AGN Reverberation Mapping with LITMUS: Fundamental Limits on lag Recovery Rates

Hugh McDougall, Tamara M. Davis, Benjamin J. S. Pope +4

Reverberation mapping of active galactic nuclei provides one of the most direct probes of the geometry and kinematics of the broad-line region by measuring time delays between cont…

Constraining the phase shift of relativistic species in DESI BAOs

Abbé M. Whitford, Hugo Rivera-Morales, Cullan Howlett +36

In the early Universe, neutrinos decouple quickly from the primordial plasma and propagate without further interactions. The impact of free-streaming neutrinos is to create a tempo…

DESI 2024: Reconstructing Dark Energy using Crossing Statistics with DESI DR1 BAO data

R. Calderon, K. Lodha, A. Shafieloo +52

We implement Crossing Statistics to reconstruct in a model-agnostic manner the expansion history of the universe and properties of dark energy, using DESI Data Release 1 (DR1) BAO…

DESI 2024 III: Baryon Acoustic Oscillations from Galaxies and Quasars

DESI Collaboration, A. G. Adame, J. Aguilar +193

We present the DESI 2024 galaxy and quasar baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) measurements using over 5.7 million unique galaxy and quasar redshifts in the range 0.1<z<2.1. Divided…

The Effect of Environment on Type Ia Supernovae in the Dark Energy Survey Three-Year Cosmological Sample

L. Kelsey, M. Sullivan, M. Smith +73

Analyses of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) have found puzzling correlations between their standardised luminosities and host galaxy properties: SNe Ia in high-mass, passive hosts appe…

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 Results: Cross-Correlation Redshifts - Methods and Systematics Characterization

M. Gatti, P. Vielzeuf, C. Davis +104

We use numerical simulations to characterize the performance of a clustering-based method to calibrate photometric redshift biases. In particular, we cross-correlate the weak lensi…

The WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey: Improved Distance Measurements to z = 1 with Reconstruction of the Baryonic Acoustic Feature

Eyal A. Kazin, Jun Koda, Chris Blake +26

We present significant improvements in cosmic distance measurements from the WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey, achieved by applying the reconstruction of the baryonic acoustic feature te…

The WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey: Galaxy Evolution at 0.25 < z < 0.75 Using The Second Red-Sequence Cluster Survey (RCS-2)

I. H. Li, H. K. C. Yee, Chris Blake +23

We study the evolution of galaxy populations around the spectroscopic WiggleZ sample of starforming galaxies at 0.25 < z < 0.75 using the photometric catalog from the Second Red-Se…

The WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey: Cosmological neutrino mass constraint from blue high-redshift galaxies

Signe Riemer-Sørensen, Chris Blake, David Parkinson +25

The absolute neutrino mass scale is currently unknown, but can be constrained from cosmology. The WiggleZ high redshift star-forming blue galaxy sample is less sensitive to systema…

First-year Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) Supernova Results: Hubble Diagram and Cosmological Parameters

Richard Kessler, Andrew Becker, David Cinabro +43

We present measurements of the Hubble diagram for 103 Type Ia supernovae (SNe) with redshifts 0.04 < z < 0.42, discovered during the first season (Fall 2005) of the Sloan Digital S…
