DESI Bright Galaxy Survey: Final Target Selection, Design, and Validation
ChangHoon Hahn, Michael J. Wilson, Omar Ruiz-Macias +57
Over the next five years, the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) will use 10 spectrographs with 5000 fibers on the 4m Mayall Telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory to…
A lightcone catalogue from the Millennium-XXL simulation: improved spatial interpolation and colour distributions for the DESI BGS
Alex Smith, Shaun Cole, Cameron Grove +2
The use of realistic mock galaxy catalogues is essential in the preparation of large galaxy surveys, in order to test and validate theoretical models and to assess systematics. We…
Solving small-scale clustering problems in approximate lightcone mocks
Alex Smith, Shaun Cole, Cameron Grove +2
Realistic lightcone mocks are important in the clustering analyses of large galaxy surveys. For simulations where only the snapshots are available, it is common to create approxima…
