The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Bright Galaxy Survey (BGS) will be a survey of bright, low-redshift galaxies, which is planned to cover an area of ∼14000 square degrees in three passes. Each pass will cover the survey area with ∼2000... Read More about Correcting for fibre assignment incompleteness in the DESI Bright Galaxy Survey.

Classification of stars and galaxies is a well-known astronomical problem that has been treated using different approaches, most of them relying on morphological information. In this paper, we tackle this issue using the low-resolution spectra from n... Read More about The PAU survey: star–galaxy classification with multi narrow-band data.

The PAU Survey: spectral features and galaxy clustering using simulated narrow-band photometry (2018)
Journal Article
Stothert, L., Norberg, P., Baugh, C., Alarcon, A., Amara, A., Carretero, J., Castander, F., Eriksen, M., Fernandez, E., Fosalba, P., Garcia-Bellido, J., Gaztanaga, E., Hoekstra, H., Padilla, C., Refregier, A., Sanchez, E., & Tortorelli, L.

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 481(3), 4221-4235. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty2491

We present a mock catalogue for the Physics of the Accelerating Universe Survey (PAUS) and use it to quantify the competitiveness of narrow-band imaging for measuring spectral features and galaxy clustering. The mock agrees with observed number count... Read More about The PAU Survey: spectral features and galaxy clustering using simulated narrow-band photometry.
