We present the first eight months of data from our secondary target program within the ongoing Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey. Our program uses a mid-infrared a…
The DESI One-Percent survey: constructing galaxy-halo connections for ELGs and LRGs using auto and cross correlations
Hongyu Gao, Y. P. Jing, Shanquan Gui +31
In the current Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey, emission line galaxies (ELGs) and luminous red galaxies (LRGs) are essential for mapping the dark matter distribu…
Changing-look Active Galactic Nuclei from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument. I.Sample from the Early Data
Wei-Jian Guo, Hu Zou, Victoria Anne Fawcett +34
Changing-look Active Galactic Nuclei (CL AGN) can be generally confirmed by the emergence (turn-on) or disappearance (turn-off) of broad emission lines, associated with a transient…
PROVABGS: The Probabilistic Stellar Mass Function of the BGS One-Percent Survey
ChangHoon Hahn, Jessica Nicole Aguilar, Shadab Alam +33
We present the probabilistic stellar mass function (pSMF) of galaxies in the DESI Bright Galaxy Survey (BGS), observed during the One-Percent Survey. The One-Percent Survey was one…
