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.

A Southern Photometric Quasar Catalog from the Dark Energy Survey Data Release 2

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2022
We present a catalog of 1.4 million photometrically selected quasar candidates in the southern hemisphere over the ∼5000 deg ^2 Dark Energy Survey (DES) wide survey area. We combine optical photometry from the DES second data release (DR2) with available

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,

The Spectroscopic Data Processing Pipeline for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
We describe the spectroscopic data processing pipeline of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), which is conducting a redshift survey of about 40 million galaxies and quasars using a purpose-built instrument on the 4 m Mayall Telescope at Kitt

Correcting for Interloper Contamination in the Power Spectrum with Neural Networks

The Astrophysical Journal
Modern slitless spectroscopic surveys such as Euclid and Roman collect vast numbers of galaxy spectra, but their low signal-to-noise ratios often lead to incorrect redshift assignments when relying on a single emission line.
