Physical Properties of 6.7 Million Galaxies from the DESI Bright Galaxy Survey: Spectral Fitting and Systematic Tests with Mock Spectra

Niu Li, Hu Zou, Jinfu Gou +7

We present a comprehensive analysis of the physical properties of galaxies in the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Data Release 1 (DR1) Bright Galaxy Survey (BGS), based…

Radio Activity Across Accretion State Changes in Changing-look AGNs: Insights from FIRST and VLASS over Two Decades

Zhi-Qiang Chen, Wei-Jian Guo, Victoria A. Fawcett +8

Changing-look active galactic nuclei (CL-AGNs) provide a unique opportunity to probe the coupling between accretion flows and relativistic jets in supermassive black holes. We inve…

Discovery of low-redshift analogues to "Little Red Dots" in DESI: A later evolutionary stage of compact LRDs?

Weiyu Ding, Xu Kong, Wei-Jian Guo +8

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has recently discovered a population of compact, red sources at z > 4 known as "Little Red Dots" (LRDs). They are characterized by their V-sha…

Extremely Metal-Poor Galaxies in DESI DR1: Connections to Galaxies in the Early Universe

Jipeng Sui, Hu Zou, Dirk Scholte +43

Extremely Metal-Poor Galaxies (XMPGs), defined as having metallicities below 10\% of the solar value, are considered possible local analogs to primordial systems and offer a unique…
