Quality Assessment of Spectroscopic Data Reduction Pipelines Using Artificial Intelligence: Scrutinizing Data Release 2 from the DESI Survey

V. Torres-Gomez, J. Suarez-Perez, J. E. Forero-Romero +45

Large spectroscopic surveys now collect data at a scale that makes traditional visual inspection impractical. We present an unsupervised pipeline for spectroscopic quality assessme…

Design and performance of "R-FLEX", a flexure-based fiber positioning robot for spectroscopic cosmology

Nicholas R. Wenner, Joseph H. Silber, David J. Schlegel

We present the design, fabrication, and testing of R-FLEX, a novel flexure mechanism for next-generation fiber-fed astronomical instruments. As the current Dark Energy Spectroscopi…

Bayesian Component Separation for DESI LAE Automated Spectroscopic Redshifts and Photometric Targeting

Ana Sofía M. Uzsoy, Andrew K. Saydjari, Arjun Dey +37

Lyman Alpha Emitters (LAEs) are valuable high-redshift cosmological probes traditionally identified using specialized narrow-band photometric surveys. In ground-based spectroscopy,…

The Target-selection Pipeline for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument

Adam D. Myers, John Moustakas, Stephen Bailey +51

In 2021 May, the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) began a 5 yr survey of approximately 50 million total extragalactic and Galactic targets. The primary DESI dark-time ta…
