SPHEREx 0.75 to 5 m Spectra for a Sequence of Nearby Brown Dwarfs
Zafar Rustamkulov, J. Kirkpatrick, Rachel Akeson +21
The SPHEREx all-sky survey has now measured the R40-100 infrared spectra of thousands of nearby brown dwarfs in the chemically rich 0.75-5 m range. The survey's wide spect…
The SPHEREx Instrument: Calibration, testing and performance measurements of the NIR 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…
The SPHEREx Ices Investigation: An Overview
Gary J. Melnick, Joseph L. Hora, Matthew L. N. Ashby +26
SPHEREx is a NASA mission designed to perform an all-sky spectroscopic survey in the 0.75 - 5 m wavelength range. Its primary science objectives are to investigate: (1) inflatio…
SPHEREx Wide-Field Infrared Spectral Mapping of Interstellar Ices and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Joseph L. Hora, Jinyoung K. Noh, Gary J. Melnick +32
We present some of the first infrared spectral maps acquired by SPHEREx. These maps, which to our knowledge are the largest of their type ever compiled in the near-infrared, reveal…
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 Satellite Mission
James J. Bock, Asad M. Aboobaker, Joseph Adamo +111
SPHEREx, a NASA explorer satellite launched on 11 March 2025, is carrying out the first all-sky near-infrared spectral survey. The satellite observes in 102 spectral bands from 0.7…
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…
Mid-Infrared diagnostics for identifying main sequence galaxies in the local Universe
C. Daoutis, A. Zezas, M. L. N. Ashby
A galaxy's mid-IR spectrum encodes key information on its radiation field, star formation, and dust properties. Characterizing this spectrum therefore offers strong constraints on…
The SPHEREx Sky Simulator: Science Data Modeling for the First All-Sky Near-Infrared Spectral Survey
Brendan P. Crill, Yoonsoo P. Bach, Sean A. Bryan +29
We describe the SPHEREx Sky Simulator, a software tool designed to model science data for NASA's SPHEREx mission that will carry out a series of all-sky spectrophotometric surveys…
The Potential of the SPHEREx Mission for Characterizing Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon 3.3 μm Emission in Nearby Galaxies
Edward Zhang, Andreas L. Faisst, Brendan Crill +18
Together with gas, stars, and supermassive black holes, dust is crucial in stellar and galaxy evolution. Hence, understanding galaxies' dust properties across cosmic time is critic…
PdBI Cold Dust Imaging of Two Extremely Red H-[4.5]>4 Galaxies Discovered with SEDS and CANDELS
Karina I. Caputi, Michal J. Michalowski, Melanie Krips +11
We report Plateau de Bure Interferometer (PdBI) 1.1 mm continuum imaging towards two extremely red H-[4.5]>4 (AB) galaxies at z>3, which we have previously discovered making use of…
The Canada-France Ecliptic Plane Survey - Full Data Release: The orbital structure of the Kuiper belt
Jean-Marc Petit, J. John Kavelaars, Brett J. Gladman +14
We report the orbital distribution of the trans-neptunian objects (TNOs) discovered during the Canada-France Ecliptic Plane Survey, whose discovery phase ran from early 2003 until…
The physical scale of the far-infrared emission in the most luminous submillimetre galaxies II: evidence for merger-driven star formation
J. D. Younger, G. G. Fazio, M. L. N. Ashby +11
We present high-resolution 345 GHz interferometric observations of two extreme luminous (L_{IR}>10^{13} L_sun), submillimetre-selected galaxies (SMGs) in the COSMOS field with the…
