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…
Cosmological analysis of the DESI DR1 Lyman alpha 1D power spectrum
J. Chaves-Montero, A. Font-Ribera, P. McDonald +63
We present the cosmological analysis of the one-dimensional Lyman- flux power spectrum from the first data release of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). We captur…
Identifying Anomalous DESI Galaxy Spectra with a Variational Autoencoder
C. Nicolaou, R. P. Nathan, O. Lahav +43
The tens of millions of spectra being captured by the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) provide tremendous discovery potential. In this work we show how Machine Learning,…
DESI DR2 reference mocks: clustering results from Uchuu-BGS and LRG
E. Fernández-GarcÃa, F. Prada, A. Smith +64
The aim of this work is to construct mock galaxy catalogues that accurately reproduce the redshift evolution of galaxy number density, clustering statistics, and baryonic propertie…
The DESI Single Fiber Lens Search. I. Four Thousand Spectroscopically Selected Galaxy-Galaxy Gravitational Lens Candidates
Juliana S. M. Karp, David J. Schlegel, Xiaosheng Huang +47
We present 4,110 strong gravitational lens candidates, 3,887 of which are new discoveries, selected from a sample of 5,837,154 luminous red galaxies (LRGs) observed with the Dark E…
Data Release 1 of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument
DESI Collaboration, M. Abdul Karim, A. G. Adame +306
In 2021 May the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) collaboration began a 5-year spectroscopic redshift survey to produce a detailed map of the evolving three-dimensional s…
