Improving Photometric Redshift Estimates with Training Sample Augmentation

Irene Moskowitz, Eric Gawiser, John Franklin Crenshaw +4

Large imaging surveys will rely on photometric redshifts (photo-z's), which are typically estimated through machine learning methods. Currently planned spectroscopic surveys will n…

The CluMPR Galaxy Cluster-Finding Algorithm and DESI Legacy Survey Galaxy Cluster Catalogue

M. J. Yantovski-Barth, Jeffrey A. Newman, Biprateep Dey +4

Galaxy clusters enable unique opportunities to study cosmology, dark matter, galaxy evolution, and strongly-lensed transients. We here present a new cluster-finding algorithm, CluM…

The Gas-Phase Mass--Metallicity Relation for Massive Galaxies at with the LEGA-C Survey

Zach J. Lewis, Brett H. Andrews, Rachel Bezanson +12

The massive end of the gas-phase mass--metallicity relation (MZR) is a sensitive probe of active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback that is a crucial but highly uncertain component of…

Empirically-Driven Multiwavelength K-corrections At Low Redshift

Catherine E. Fielder, Brett H. Andrews, Jeffrey A. Newman +1

K-corrections, conversions between flux in observed bands to flux in rest-frame bands, are critical for comparing galaxies at various redshifts. These corrections often rely on fit…

Are Milky-Way-like galaxies like the Milky Way? A view from SDSS-IV/MaNGA

Shuang Zhou, Alfonso Aragón-Salamanca, Michael Merrifield +3

In this paper, we place the Milky Way (MW) in the context of similar-looking galaxies in terms of their star-formation and chemical evolution histories. We select a sample of 138 M…

DESI Survey Validation Spectra Reveal an Increasing Fraction of Recently Quenched Galaxies at

David J. Setton, Biprateep Dey, Gourav Khullar +24

We utilize bright Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) from the novel Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument Survey Validation spectroscopic sample, leveraging its deep ($\sim2.5…
