The DESI Experiment Part II: Instrument Design
DESI Collaboration, Amir Aghamousa, Jessica Aguilar +290
DESI (Dark Energy Spectropic Instrument) is a Stage IV ground-based dark energy experiment that will study baryon acoustic oscillations and the growth of structure through redshift…
The DESI Experiment Part I: Science,Targeting, and Survey Design
DESI Collaboration, Amir Aghamousa, Jessica Aguilar +290
DESI (Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument) is a Stage IV ground-based dark energy experiment that will study baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) and the growth of structure through…
Cosmological constraints from the redshift dependence of the Alcock-Paczynski effect: application to the SDSS-III BOSS DR12 galaxies
Xiao-Dong Li, Changbom Park, Cristiano G. Sabiu +5
We apply the methodology developed in \cite{Li2014,Li2015} to BOSS DR12 galaxies and derive cosmological constraints from the redshift dependence of the Alcock-Paczynski (AP) effec…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Catalog: twelfth data release
Isabelle Pâris, Patrick Petitjean, Nicholas P. Ross +43
We present the Data Release 12 Quasar catalog (DR12Q) from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) of the SDSS-III. This catalog includes all SDSS-III/BOSS objects that…
The Chemical Abundance Structure of the Inner Milky Way: A Signature of "Upside-Down" Disk Formation?
Jenna K. C. Freudenburg, David H. Weinberg, Michael R. Hayden +1
We present a model for the [alpha/Fe]-[Fe/H] distribution of stars in the inner Galaxy, R=3-5 kpc, measured as a function of vertical distance |z| from the midplane by Hayden et al…
Galaxy Three-Point Correlation Functions and Halo/Subhalo Models
Hong Guo, Zheng Zheng, Peter S. Behroozi +9
We present the measurements of the luminosity-dependent redshift-space three-point correlation functions (3PCFs) for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) DR7 Main galaxy sample. We…
The clustering of galaxies in the completed SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: cosmological analysis of the DR12 galaxy sample
Shadab Alam, Metin Ata, Stephen Bailey +69
We present cosmological results from the final galaxy clustering data set of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey, part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III. Our combined gal…
Equilibrium and Sudden Events in Chemical Evolution
David H. Weinberg, Brett H. Andrews, Jenna Freudenburg
We present new analytic solutions for one-zone (fully mixed) chemical evolution models and explore their implications. In contrast to existing analytic models, we incorporate a rea…
Inflow, Outflow, Yields, and Stellar Population Mixing in Chemical Evolution Models
Brett H. Andrews, David H. Weinberg, Ralph Schönrich +1
Chemical evolution models are powerful tools for interpreting stellar abundance surveys and understanding galaxy evolution. However, their predictions depend heavily on the treatme…
On the Deuterium-to-Hydrogen Ratio of the Interstellar Medium
David H. Weinberg
Observations show that the global deuterium-to-hydrogen ratio (D/H) in the local interstellar medium (ISM) is about 90% of the primordial ratio predicted by big bang nucleosynthesi…
Selection bias in dynamically-measured super-massive black hole samples: its consequences and the quest for the most fundamental relation
Francesco Shankar, Mariangela Bernardi, Ravi K. Sheth +7
We compare the set of local galaxies having dynamically measured black holes with a large, unbiased sample of galaxies extracted from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We confirm earli…
The effects of assembly bias on cosmological inference from galaxy-galaxy lensing and galaxy clusters
Joseph E. McEwen, David H. Weinberg
The combination of galaxy-galaxy lensing (GGL) and galaxy clustering is a promising route to measuring the amplitude of matter clustering and testing modified gravity theories of c…
