Euclid preparation. First investigation of the impact of cross-contamination on spectroscopic redshift measurements with pixel-level simulations
Euclid Collaboration, F. Passalacqua, S. Anselmi +299
We present a study on simulated data focused on understanding the performance of the spectroscopic redshift measurements with the Near-Infrared Spectrometer and Photometer (NISP) i…
The Hunt for Red Dual AGNs I: Spatially-Resolved Mid-IR Dual AGNs in the DeCam Legacy Survey
Ryan W. Pfeifle, Kimberly A. Weaver, Barry Rothberg +13
Theoretical studies predict that dual AGNs are a critical stage of galaxy merger-driven supermassive black hole growth. Systematic searches for dual AGNs typically target late-stag…
Euclid preparation. XCII. Controlling angular systematics in the Euclid spectroscopic galaxy sample
Euclid Collaboration, P. Monaco, M. Y. Elkhashab +298
We present the strategy used to identify and mitigate potential sources of angular systematics in the \textit{Euclid} spectroscopic galaxy survey, and we quantify their impact on g…
Euclid preparation. The impact of redshift interlopers on the two-point correlation function analysis
Euclid Collaboration, I. Risso, A. Veropalumbo +317
The Euclid survey aims to measure the spectroscopic redshift of emission-line galaxies by identifying the H line in their slitless spectra. This method is sensitive to the si…
Euclid preparation. Simulating thousands of Euclid spectroscopic skies
Euclid Collaboration, P. Monaco, G. Parimbelli +303
We present two extensive sets of 3500+1000 simulations of dark matter haloes on the past light cone, and two corresponding sets of simulated (`mock') galaxy catalogues that represe…
Euclid: The potential of slitless infrared spectroscopy: A z=5.4 quasar and new ultracool dwarfs
E. Bañados, V. Le Brun, S. Belladitta +226
We demonstrate the potential of Euclid's slitless spectroscopy to discover high-redshift (z>5) quasars and their main photometric contaminant, ultracool dwarfs. Sensitive infrared…
