Measuring our Universe from Galaxy Redshift Surveys [PDF]
Living Reviews in Relativity, 2004 Galaxy redshift surveys have achieved significant progress over the last couple of decades. Those surveys tell us in the most straightforward way what our local Universe looks like.

The miniJPAS survey: Photometric redshift catalogue [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2021 MiniJPAS is a ∼1 deg2 imaging survey of the AEGIS field in 60 bands, performed to demonstrate the scientific potential of the upcoming Javalambre-Physics of the Accelerating Universe Astrophysical Survey (J-PAS). Full coverage of the 3800–9100 Å range with 54 narrow-band filters, in combination with 6 optical broad-band filters, allows for extremely ...

Redshift Surveys With 2DF [PDF]
Highlights of Astronomy, 1998 This IAU Joint Discussion proposes to address the subject of redshift surveys in the 21st century. This paper, however, deals with two major new redshift surveys that those involved sincerely hope will be completed in the 20th century. Nonetheless, these surveys are relevant to the topic of the meeting, as they clearly foreshadow the scope and style of

Target Selection and Validation of DESI Quasars
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey will measure large-scale structures using quasars as direct tracers of dark matter in the redshift range 0.9 < z < 2.1 and using Ly α forests in quasar spectra at z > 2.1.

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: spectra and redshifts [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2001 The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) is designed to measure redshifts for approximately 250 000 galaxies. This paper describes the survey design, the spectroscopic observations, the redshift measurements and the survey data base. The 2dFGRS uses the 2dF multifibre spectrograph on the Anglo-Australian Telescope, which is capable of observing 400 ...

Target Selection and Validation of DESI Luminous Red Galaxies
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) is carrying out a five-year survey that aims to measure the redshifts of tens of millions of galaxies and quasars, including 8 million luminous red galaxies (LRGs) in the redshift range 0.4 < z ≲ 1.0.

Redshift Survey of 12 Moderate-redshift Clusters
Research Notes of the AAS, 2022 Abstract We conducted a redshift survey of 12 X-ray selected clusters in the redshift range z = 0.35–0.50 with MMT/Hectospec. The redshift surveys confirm that these clusters are massive systems. There are no massive groups or clusters projected along the line of sight that might contaminate the observed cluster X-ray properties ...

Forward Modeling of Galaxy Populations for Cosmological Redshift Distribution Inference
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 We present a forward-modeling framework for estimating galaxy redshift distributions from photometric surveys. Our forward model is composed of: a detailed population model describing the intrinsic distribution of the physical characteristics of galaxies,
