Luminosity function of quasars at from SDSS and DESI
Gaocheng Yin, Linhua Jiang, Zhiwei Pan +54
We present a study of the evolution of type 1 quasars at , covering the peak epoch of quasar activity. The quasar evolution has been extensively explored by a variety of…
Cosmic Pairs: A DESI Census of Dual and Offset AGN as Precursors to Massive Black Hole Binaries
Ekaterine Dadiani, Antonella Palmese, Yihao Zhou +52
We present a systematic census of dual and offset active galactic nuclei (AGN) using spectroscopic data from the first data release (DR1) of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrumen…
Disentangling the Distant Stellar Halo Using K-Giants in the DESI Year 3 Data
Namitha Kizhuprakkat, Andrew P. Cooper, Wenting Wang +42
We present a sample of 88,959 K-giants from DESI Milky Way Survey Year 3 data, which we use to characterize the chemo-dynamical properties of the stellar halo at Galactocentric dis…
ODIN: Spectroscopic Validation of Ly-Emitting Galaxy Samples with DESI
Ethan Pinarski, Govind Ramgopal, Nicole Firestone +65
The One-hundred-deg^2 DECam Imaging in Narrowbands (ODIN) survey is conducting the widest-field deep narrow-band imaging of the equatorial and southern skies. ODIN uses three custo…
The Milky Way stellar halo is twisted and doubly broken: insights from DESI DR2 Milky Way Survey observation
Songting Li, Wenting Wang, Sergey E. Koposov +45
Using K giants from the second data release (DR2) of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Milky Way (MW) Survey, we measure the shape, orientation, radial profile, and d…
