Lensing convergence and the neutrino mass scale in galaxy redshift surveys [PDF]
We demonstrate the importance of including the lensing contribution in galaxy clustering analyses with large galaxy redshift surveys. It is well known that radial cross-correlations between different redshift bins of galaxy surveys are dominated by ...

Will kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich measurements enhance the science return from galaxy redshift surveys? [PDF]
Yes. Future CMB experiments such as Advanced ACTPol and CMB-S4 should achieve measurements with S/N of > 0.1 for the typical host halo of galaxies in redshift surveys. These measurements will provide complementary measurements of the growth rate of large

The kinematic dipole in galaxy redshift surveys [PDF]
In the concordance model of the Universe, the matter distribution—as observed in galaxy number counts or the intensity of line emission (such as the 21cm line of neutral hydrogen) —should have a kinematic dipole due to the Sun's motion relative to the ...

Survey Operations for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey is a spectroscopic survey of tens of millions of galaxies at 0 < z < 3.5 covering 14,000 sq. deg. of the sky.

Predicting Hα emission-line galaxy counts for future galaxy redshift surveys [PDF]
Knowledge of the number density of Hα emitting galaxies is vital for assessing the scientific impact of the Euclid and Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) missions. In this work, we present predictions from a galaxy formation model, GALACTICUS,

The SSA22 H i Tomography Survey (SSA22-HIT). I. Data Set and Compiled Redshift Catalog
We conducted a deep spectroscopic survey, named SSA22-HIT, in the SSA22 field with the DEep Imaging MultiObject Spectrograph (DEIMOS) on the Keck telescope, designed to tomographically map high- z H i gas through analysis of Ly α absorption in background

SHELS: COMPLETE REDSHIFT SURVEYS OF TWO WIDELY SEPARATED FIELDS [PDF]
The Smithsonian Hectospec Lensing Survey (SHELS) is a complete redshift survey covering two well-separated fields (F1 and F2) of the Deep Lens Survey (DLS). Both fields are more than 94% complete to a Galactic extinction corrected R0 = 20.2.

Probing primordial non-Gaussianity with SKA galaxy redshift surveys: a fully relativistic analysis [PDF]
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will produce spectroscopic surveys of tens to hundreds of millions of neutral hydrogen (H I) galaxies, eventually covering 30 000 deg2 and reaching out to redshift z≳2.

COMPARING DENSE GALAXY CLUSTER REDSHIFT SURVEYS WITH WEAK-LENSING MAPS [PDF]
We use dense redshift surveys of nine galaxy clusters at z ∼ 0.2 to compare the galaxy distribution in each system with the projected matter distribution from weak lensing.

ON THE RECOVERY OF THE LOCAL GROUP MOTION FROM GALAXY REDSHIFT SURVEYS [PDF]
There is an ∼150 km s−1 discrepancy between the measured motion of the Local Group (LG) of galaxies with respect to the cosmic microwave background and the linear theory prediction based on the gravitational force field of the large-scale structure in ...
