Validation of the Scientific Program for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument

Stewart Cole, Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Andrei Variu, Xin Chen, Daniel Felipe Forero Sanchez, Eduardo Sanchez, Zheng Zheng, Hua Zhang, Sun Hee Kim, Cheng Zhao

The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) was designed to conduct a survey covering 14,000 deg(2) over 5 yr to constrain the cosmic expansion history through precise measurements of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO). The scientific program for DESI ...

The DESI Survey Validation: Results from Visual Inspection of Bright Galaxies, Luminous Red Galaxies, and Emission-line Galaxies

Stewart Cole, Jiaxi Yu, Yi Zhang, Anand Stéphane Raichoor, Arjun Dey

The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Survey has obtained a set of spectroscopic measurements of galaxies to validate the final survey design and target selections. To assist in these tasks, we visually inspect DESI spectra of approximately 2500 ...

GTC Follow-up Observations of Very Metal-poor Star Candidates from DESI

Pascale Jablonka, Arjun Dey

The observations from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) will significantly increase the numbers of known extremely metal-poor stars by a factor of similar to 10, improving the sample statistics to study the early chemical evolution of the Mil ...

The completed SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: large-scale structure catalogues and measurement of the isotropic BAO between redshift 0.6 and 1.1 for the Emission Line Galaxy

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cheng Zhao, Johan Comparat, Anand Stéphane Raichoor, Amélie Tamone, Claudio Gorgoni, David Schlegel, Arjun Dey

We present the Emission Line Galaxy (ELG) sample of the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV Data Release 16. We describe the observations and redshift measurement for the 269 243 observed ELG spectra, and t ...

The SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: final emission line galaxy target selection

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Anand Stéphane Raichoor, Johan Comparat, Timothée Guy Olivier Delubac, Claudio Gorgoni, David Schlegel, Yi Wang, Arjun Dey

We describe the algorithm used to select the emission line galaxy (ELG) sample at z similar to 0.85 for the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV, using photometric data from the DECam Legacy Survey. Our select ...
