The first identification of Lyman Changing-look Quasars at high-redshift in DESI

Wei-Jian Guo, Zhiwei Pan, Małgorzata Siudek +38

We present two cases of Ly changing-look (CL) quasars (J1306 and J1512) along with two additional candidates (J1511 and J1602), all discovered serendipitously at through…

Constraints on the spacetime variation of the fine-structure constant using DESI emission-line galaxies

Linhua Jiang, Zhiwei Pan, Jessica Nicole Aguilar +38

We present strong constraints on the spacetime variation of the fine-structure constant using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). In this pilot work, we utilize $\…

ELG Spectroscopic Systematics Analysis of the DESI Data Release 1

Jiaxi Yu, Ashley J. Ross, Antoine Rocher +58

Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) uses more than 2.4 million Emission Line Galaxies (ELGs) for 3D large-scale structure (LSS) analyses in its Data Release 1 (DR1). Such l…

The Construction of Large-scale Structure Catalogs for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument

A. J. Ross, J. Aguilar, S. Ahlen +83

We present the technical details on how large-scale structure (LSS) catalogs are constructed from redshifts measured from spectra observed by the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrume…

Emission Line Predictions for Mock Galaxy Catalogues: a New Differentiable and Empirical Mapping from DESI

Ashod Khederlarian, Jeffrey A. Newman, Brett H. Andrews +43

We present a simple, differentiable method for predicting emission line strengths from rest-frame optical continua using an empirically-determined mapping. Extensive work has been…

The rate of extreme coronal line emitting galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and their relation to tidal disruption events

Joseph Callow, Or Graur, Peter Clark +27

High-ionization iron coronal lines (CLs) are a rare phenomenon observed in galaxy and quasi-stellar object spectra that are thought to be created by high-energy emission from activ…

Redshift-dependent RSD bias from Intrinsic Alignment with DESI Year 1 Spectra

Claire Lamman, Daniel Eisenstein, Jessica Nicole Aguilar +30

We estimate the redshift-dependent, anisotropic clustering signal in DESI's Year 1 Survey created by tidal alignments of Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) and a selection-induced galaxy…
