Extending SOMPZ beyond Spectroscopic Coverage for Roman Weak Lensing

Yufei Zhen, Chun-Hao To, Boyan Yin +7

Precision weak lensing cosmology requires accurate galaxy redshift distributions. However, the spectroscopic samples used to characterize these distributions do not fully span the…

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…
