Simulations show SPHEREx photometry is generally unbiased but source blending drives outliers; with brightness selection, photometric redshifts reach σ_NMAD ≈ 0.003-0.01 and cluster redshifts are recovered to |Δz|/(1+z) < 0.002 at z ≲ 0.5.
Ground calibration measures SPHEREx band centers to better than 1 nm for most bands and resolving power to within 5 percent, with on-sky verification using NGC 6543.
