Impact and measurability of linear relativistic effects in galaxy surveys
Robin Y. Wen, Henry S. Grasshorn Gebhardt, Olivier Doré
The three-dimensional galaxy power spectrum is a powerful probe of primordial non-Gaussianity (PNG) and additional general relativistic (GR) effects on large scales, which can be c…
SPHEREx mapping of diffuse PAH and H II emission in the Galactic plane
Giulia Murgia, Ari J. Cukierman, Brandon S. Hensley +29
We present preliminary SPHEREx maps of diffuse Galactic emission tracing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and ionized hydrogen gas, and we study their relationship across th…
Demonstrating the Use of the Spherical Fourier Bessel Basis for Large Scale Clustering Systematics Discovery and Mitigation with eBOSS
Sean Bruton, James R. Cheshire, Olivier Doré +2
The Spherical Fourier-Bessel (SFB) basis, in separating the angular and radial modes of the power spectrum, permits a targeted identification and mitigation of systematics in clust…
SPHEREx Wide-Field Infrared Spectral Mapping of Interstellar Ices and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Joseph L. Hora, Jinyoung K. Noh, Gary J. Melnick +32
We present some of the first infrared spectral maps acquired by SPHEREx. These maps, which to our knowledge are the largest of their type ever compiled in the near-infrared, reveal…
Large-scale Modeling of the Observed Power Spectrum Multipoles
Robin Y. Wen, Henry S. Grasshorn Gebhardt, Chen Heinrich +1
Current and upcoming large-scale structure surveys are pushing toward increasingly wide angular coverage, where wide-angle effects (arising from the varying line of sight across th…
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…
