A UV-to-Near-infrared QSO Composite Spectrum from the SPHEREx All-Sky Survey
Minjin Kim, Yongjung Kim, Woong-Seob Jeong +19
We present a composite spectrum of type 1 SDSS QSOs (median ), constructed using SPHEREx spectrophotometric data and covering a rest-frame wavelength…
The SPHEREx View of Galaxy Clusters: A Simulation-based Validation of the Forced Photometry Pipeline for Extended Sources
Hyeonguk Bahk, Ho Seong Hwang, Lindsey Bleem +12
We present a simulation-driven assessment of the performance of the SPHEREx pipeline for galaxy cluster science, focusing on photometry, source blending, survey depth, and photomet…
Spectral response of SPHEREx
Howard Hui, Jamie Bock, Samuel Condon +31
The Spectro Photometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization, and Ices Explorer (SPHEREx) is conducting the first all-sky near infrared spectral survey spanning 0.…
The SPHEREx Instrument: Calibration, testing and performance measurements of the NIR 2 spectroscopic surveyor from the laboratory to in-orbit commissioning
Phil M. Korngut, James J. Bock, Samuel Condon +90
The SPHEREx near-infrared space telescope is an all-sky spectroscopic survey mission launched on March 12th, 2025 UTC. In addition to providing the community with a spectral databa…
The SPHEREx Satellite Mission
James J. Bock, Asad M. Aboobaker, Joseph Adamo +111
SPHEREx, a NASA explorer satellite launched on 11 March 2025, is carrying out the first all-sky near-infrared spectral survey. The satellite observes in 102 spectral bands from 0.7…
The Potential of the SPHEREx Mission for Characterizing Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon 3.3 μm Emission in Nearby Galaxies
Edward Zhang, Andreas L. Faisst, Brendan Crill +18
Together with gas, stars, and supermassive black holes, dust is crucial in stellar and galaxy evolution. Hence, understanding galaxies' dust properties across cosmic time is critic…
