Overview of the Instrumentation for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument [PDF]
Astronomical Journal, 2022 The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) embarked on an ambitious 5 yr survey in 2021 May to explore the nature of dark energy with spectroscopic measurements of 40 million galaxies and quasars. DESI will determine precise redshifts and employ the

The galaxy luminosity function and the redshift-distance controversy (A Review) [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1986 The mean relation between distance and redshift for galaxies is reviewed as an observational question. The luminosity function for galaxies is an important ingredient and is given explicitly. We discuss various observational selection effects that are important for comparison of the linear and quadratic distance-redshift laws. Several lines of evidence

Measuring the distance–redshift relation with the baryon acoustic oscillations of galaxy clusters [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016 We analyse the largest spectroscopic samples of galaxy clusters to date, and provide observational constraints on the distance-redshift relation from baryon acoustic oscillations. The cluster samples considered in this work have been extracted from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey at three median redshifts, $z=0.2$, $z=0.3$, and $z=0.5$.

Redshift-Distance Survey of Early-Type Galaxies: Dipole of the Velocity Field [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2000 We use the recently completed redshift-distance survey of nearby early-type galaxies (ENEAR) to measure the dipole component of the peculiar velocity field to a depth of cz ~ 6000 km/s. The sample consists of 1145 galaxies brighter than m_B=14.5 and cz < 7000 km/s, uniformly distributed over the whole sky, and 129 fainter cluster galaxies within the

A dark siren measurement of the Hubble constant using gravitational wave events from the first three LIGO/Virgo observing runs and DELVE [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023 The current and next observation seasons will detect hundreds of gravitational waves (GWs) from compact binary systems coalescence at cosmological distances. When combined with independent electromagnetic measurements, the source redshift will be known,

The many flavours of photometric redshifts [PDF]
Nature Astronomy, 2018 Since more than 70 years ago, the colours of galaxies derived from flux measurements at different wavelengths have been used to estimate their cosmological distances.

Synergy between CSST galaxy survey and gravitational-wave observation: Inferring the Hubble constant from dark standard sirens [PDF]
Science China Physics Mechanics and Astronomy, 2022 Gravitational waves (GWs) from compact binary coalescences encode the absolute luminosity distances of GW sources. Once the redshifts of GW sources are known, one can use the distance-redshift relation to constrain cosmological parameters.
