Cosmologist trying to unravel the universe's secrets looking far outside our galaxy. Also happy to discover unique locations on mother earth. Piano lover.
I had a fun conversation with @kgvancamp about my new Web-Halo Model (WHM) on The Space Between podcast https://t.co/KehtG85QbJ and its connections to a map of Kansas, meatballs, honeycombs, spinning tops, and more! 1/3
Tune in and learn how the WHM precisely describes structure formation towards about 5x smaller scales than standard, perturbative methods, allowing us to squeeze out much more cosmological information from galaxy survey data! 2/3
🚨 BIG NEWS ALERT! 🚨
We’re just 24 HOURS AWAY from a MAJOR DESI release! 🌉🔭
Tomorrow at 3 PM PT, DESI is unveiling DR1, our first official Data Release—the largest dataset of its kind, packed with information on 18.7 million galaxies, quasars, and stars! But that’s not all…
In its quest to make precision cosmological measurements, DESI uses a process called “blinding” in its analysis methodology in order to avoid the inaccuracies that can arise from confirmation bias.
🎉DESI released another set of papers based on Y1 data. These new results provide an extended, “full-shape” analysis of the Y1 data by looking at how galaxies and quasars cluster on different scales, both in the plane of the sky and along the line of sight in redshift space.
.@desisurvey scientists mapped how nearly 6 million galaxies cluster across 11 billion years of cosmic history. Their observations line up with what Einstein's theory of general relativity predicts.

We are excited to present the new power spectrum Full-Shape results on DESI DR1 data @desisurvey. Check all the new papers at https://t.co/zeTynP4tV6. A thread🧵👇
Is the way in which galaxies cluster consistent with our understanding of the standard model of gravity and the predictions from Einstein's theory of General Relativity? 🔭

A new study from the @DESIsurvey is one of the most stringent tests yet of general relativity and how #gravity behaves at cosmic scales. Read the latest: https://t.co/A4QuPHEMXC
Paper day📢. Sergi Novell-Masot has demonstrated how the catalogue-level blinding technique used for @desisurvey also works for higher-order statistics📐, showing how this technique consistently blinds all summary statistics of interest coherently.

@upvehu@SEA_astronomia 🏆 Premio SEA Tesis 2023 (ex-aequo)
Samuel Brieden, por la tesis “From the Precision Era, towards the Accuracy Era of Cosmology with DESI’, realizada en la Universitat de Barcelona (@UniBarcelona)
@SEA_astronomia#RCSEA2024
Congratulations to @Cosmosamu for his best thesis @SEA_astronomia prize. Today Sam recieved it and gave a fantastic introductory talk about his work within the @desisurvey at the #RCSEA2024.
Paper day! Again! 🎉 Yesterday we released a batch of supporting papers in prep (analysis applied to simulations only) for the full-shape analysis yet to come, and also presenting and validating our blinding scheme. Find the papers and explanations at https://t.co/fGmMkZ0lpV. 1/2
