abstract

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) will provide the data to support detailed investigations of the distribution of luminous and non- luminous matter in the Universe: a photometrically and astrometrically calibrated digital imaging survey of pi steradians above about Galactic latitude 30 degrees in five broad optical bands to a depth of g' about 23 magnitudes, and a spectroscopic survey of the approximately one million brightest galaxies and 10^5 brightest quasars found in the photometric object catalog produced by the imaging survey. This paper summarizes the observational parameters and data products of the SDSS, and serves as an introduction to extensive technical on-line documentation.

Cosmological analysis of the DESI DR1 Lyman alpha 1D power spectrum

astro-ph.CO · 2026-01-29 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

DESI DR1 Lyman-alpha data yields Δ²★=0.379±0.032 and n★=-2.309±0.019 at k★=0.009 km⁻¹s and z=3, sharpening N_eff, α_s, and β_s constraints by factors of 1.18-1.90 when combined with other probes.

Consistency of DES and DESI distances and the Standard Cosmological Model

astro-ph.CO · 2026-06-16 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

DESI recovers the CMB-constrained parameter combination at sub-percent precision; high-redshift DES supernovae fit flat Lambda CDM while a 0.05 mag offset in the low-redshift anchor sample may be systematic, supporting overall model consistency from recombination to the local universe.

Integral Field Unit Spectroscopy with One Fiber

astro-ph.GA · 2026-06-08 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

A masked autoencoder model trained on 4.7 million DESI single-fiber observations predicts emission-line maps from images that match independent MaNGA IFU data without any IFU training.

Revisiting the 'Lensing is Low' Problem with UNIONS

astro-ph.CO · 2026-06-22 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

New UNIONS galaxy-galaxy lensing data around CMASS galaxies indicates no significant lensing is low problem, with joint HOD fits to GGL and GC favoring a slightly lower matter power spectrum amplitude than Planck.
