Extending the Stellar-to-Halo Mass Relation to Dwarf Galaxies with DESI DR1
Z. Shao, Y. Zu, A. Salcedo +51
Constraining the dark matter halos of the smallest galaxies offers fundamental insights into the nature of dark matter and stellar feedback. Using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Ins…

Spatially-Resolved Spectra of Diffuse Galactic Light using 10.8 M DESI Sky Fibers
Andrew K. Saydjari, Bruce T. Draine, Timothy D. Brandt +49
Using 10.8 million ``blank'' sky spectra from the DESI Year 3 dataset, we measure the diffuse galactic light (DGL) spectrum in the optical at spectral resolution by c…

The DESI Y1 RR Lyrae catalog II: The metallicity dependency of pulsational properties, the shape of the RR Lyrae instability strip, and metal rich RR Lyrae
Gustavo E. Medina, Ting S. Li, C. Allende Prieto +39
RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) are valuable probes of both Milky Way assembly and stellar-evolution physics. Using a sample 6,240 RRLs obtained in the first year of the Dark Energy Spectros…
