DESI 2024 V: Full-Shape Galaxy Clustering from Galaxies and Quasars
A. G. Adame, J. Aguilar, S. Ahlen +195
We present the measurements and cosmological implications of the galaxy two-point clustering using over 4.7 million unique galaxy and quasar redshifts in the range divi…
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…
Candidate strongly lensed type Ia supernovae in the Zwicky Transient Facility archive
A. Townsend, J. Nordin, A. Sagués Carracedo +61
Gravitationally lensed type Ia supernovae (glSNe Ia) are unique astronomical tools that can be used to study cosmological parameters, distributions of dark matter, the astrophysics…
Suppressing the sample variance of DESI-like galaxy clustering with fast simulations
Z. Ding, A. Variu, S. Alam +44
Ongoing and upcoming galaxy redshift surveys, such as the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey, will observe vast regions of sky and a wide range of redshifts. In ord…
Synthetic spectra for Lyman- forest analysis in the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument
Hiram K. Herrera-Alcantar, Andrea Muñoz-Gutiérrez, Ting Tan +51
Synthetic data sets are used in cosmology to test analysis procedures, to verify that systematic errors are well understood and to demonstrate that measurements are unbiased. In th…
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…
