The Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) has become a cornerstone of extragalactic astronomy. Since the last public catalog in 2015, a wealth of new imaging and spectroscopic data has been collected in the COSMOS field. This paper describes the collection, processing, and analysis of this new imaging data to produce a new reference photometric redshift catalog. Source detection and multi-wavelength photometry is performed for 1.7 million sources across the $2\,\mathrm{deg}^{2}$ of the COSMOS field, $\sim$966,000 of which are measured with all available broad-band data using both traditional aperture photometric methods and a new profile-fitting photometric extraction tool, The Farmer, which we have developed. A detailed comparison of the two resulting photometric catalogs is presented. Photometric redshifts are computed for all sources in each catalog utilizing two independent photometric redshift codes. Finally, a comparison is made between the performance of the photometric methodologies and of the redshift codes to demonstrate an exceptional degree of self-consistency in the resulting photometric redshifts. The $i<21$ sources have sub-percent photometric redshift accuracy and even the faintest sources at $25<i<27$ reach a precision of $5\,\%$. Finally, these results are discussed in the context of previous, current, and future surveys in the COSMOS field. Compared to COSMOS2015, reaches the same photometric redshift precision at almost one magnitude deeper. Both photometric catalogs and their photometric redshift solutions and physical parameters will be made available through the usual astronomical archive systems (ESO Phase 3, IPAC IRSA, and CDS).

  1. A MIGHTEE robust measurement of the star formation rate-radio correlation

    astro-ph.GA 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0

    The SFR–1.4 GHz radio correlation is log10(SFR) = 0.790(L′)+1.244(1+z)^0.122−0.033M′ with 0.178 dex scatter, showing significant redshift but weak mass dependence when AGN are treated probabilistically.

  2. Assessing the large-scale angular clustering of UNIONS Lyman Break Galaxies via cross-correlations

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    UNIONS Lyman-break galaxy auto-clustering is unusable at large scales due to imaging systematics, but LBG x CMB-lensing and LBG x quasar cross-spectra are measured robustly, with amplitudes consistent with predictions.

  3. Assessing the large-scale angular clustering of UNIONS Lyman Break Galaxies via cross-correlations

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    UNIONS LBGs yield robust cross-power spectra with Planck CMB lensing and DESI/Quaia quasars at amplitudes matching theory, despite systematics that render the auto-spectrum unusable.

  4. Dark Energy Survey Year 6 Results: Redshift Calibration of the MagLim++ Lens Sample

    astro-ph.CO 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0

    DES Y6 calibrates MagLim++ lens galaxy redshift distributions to 1-2% mean accuracy using SOM-based photometric redshifts plus clustering redshifts, with uncertainties compressed into a few modes.

    astro-ph.GA 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    After applying IR-informed priors to X-ray NH posteriors in a sample of 811 high-z AGN, CTK sources comprise 17% of the population at 3<z<6 with no significant evolution.
