Validation of the DESI DR2 Ly forest full-shape analysis
M. Herbold, A. Cuceu, P. Martini +100
We present the validation of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Data Release 2 (DR2) Lyman- (Ly) forest full-shape analysis. This analysis combines three-dimensi…
CoLoRe-2LPT: Lyman- mock catalogues for the validation of DESI cosmological analyses
M. F. Ruiz-Herrera Bernal, S. Avila, A. Font-Ribera +90
The Lyman- (Ly) forest has become a crucial probe for studying the large-scale structure of the universe at high redshift (), providing powerful constraints on Baryon…
Fiducial-Cosmology-dependent systematics for the DESI 2024 BAO Analysis
A. Pérez-Fernández, L. Medina-Varela, R. Ruggeri +61
When measuring the Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) scale from galaxy surveys, one typically assumes a fiducial cosmology when converting redshift measurements into comoving dist…
Optimal Reconstruction of Baryon Acoustic Oscillations for DESI 2024
E. Paillas, Z. Ding, X. Chen +73
Baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) provide a robust standard ruler to measure the expansion history of the Universe through galaxy clustering. Density-field reconstruction is now a…
Validating the Galaxy and Quasar Catalog-Level Blinding Scheme for the DESI 2024 analysis
U. Andrade, J. Mena-Fernández, H. Awan +60
In the era of precision cosmology, ensuring the integrity of data analysis through blinding techniques is paramount -- a challenge particularly relevant for the Dark Energy Spectro…
HOD-Dependent Systematics for Luminous Red Galaxies in the DESI 2024 BAO Analysis
J. Mena-Fernández, C. Garcia-Quintero, S. Yuan +72
In this paper, we present the estimation of systematics related to the halo occupation distribution (HOD) modeling in the baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) distance measurement of…
