DESI DR2 Results IV: Alcock-Paczyński Measurements from the Lyman Alpha Forest and Cosmological Constraints
DESI Collaboration, A. G. Adame, J. Aguilar +164
The DESI DR2 analysis measures the Alcock‑Paczynski effect using the full shape of Lyman‑α forest auto‑ and cross‑correlations, achieving 1% precision at redshift 2.33 and providin…
