We present the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurements with the Lyman- α ( Ly α) forest from the second data release (DR2) of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey. Our BAO measurements include both the autocorrelation of the Ly α forest absorption observed in the spectra of high-redshift quasars and the cross-correlation of

The one-dimensional power spectrum P 1D of Lyα forest offers rich insights into cosmological and astrophysical parameters, including constraints on the sum of neutrino masses, warm dark matter models, and the thermal state of the intergalactic medium. We present the measurement of P 1D using the optimal quadratic maximum likelihood estimator

Giant low-surface-brightness (GLSB) galaxies represent an extreme class of disk galaxies characterized by exceptionally large sizes and low stellar densities. Their formation and evolutionary pathways remain poorly constrained, primarily due to the observational challenges associated with detecting their faint stellar disks. In this work, we

Galaxy clusters provide a unique probe of the late-time cosmic structure and serve as a powerful independent test of the Λ CDM model. This work presents the first set of cosmological constraints derived with ∼ 16 , 000 optically selected redMaPPer clusters across nearly 5000 deg 2 using DES year 3 datasets. Our analysis leverages a consistent

We report cosmological results from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) measurements of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) when combined with recent data from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT). By jointly analyzing ACT and Planck data and applying conservative cuts to overlapping multipole ranges, we assess how different P l a n c k

We present the Damped Lyα Toolkit for automated detection and characterization of damped Ly$\alpha$ absorbers (DLAs) in quasar spectra. Our method uses quasar spectral templates with and without absorption from intervening DLAs to reconstruct observed quasar forest regions. The best-fitting model determines whether a DLA is present while estimating
