The SPHEREx Image and Spectrophotometry Processing Pipeline
Rachel Akeson, Gregory P. Dubois-Felsmann, Brendan P. Crill +41
In this paper, we describe the SPHEREx image and spectrophotometry data processing pipeline, an infrastructure and software system designed to produce calibrated spectral images an…
BICEP/Keck XXI: Constraints on Early-Universe Parity Violation from Multipole-Dependent Birefringence
Keck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, Zeeshan Ahmed +94
We present the first constraints on multipole-dependent cosmic birefringence using CMB polarization data from the BK18 dataset, which combines observations from BICEP2, Keck Array,…
The multiphase interstellar medium as a common origin for magnetic misalignment and TB parity violation
Andrea Bracco, Ari J. Cukierman, Raphael Skalidis +1
We present an original data analysis and a physical model that provide new insights into the origin of, and relationship between, two observables of the dusty, polarized Galaxy at…
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…
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…
