High-significance kSZ detections for BGS and ELG tracers reveal low gas fractions near virial radii in BGS halos likely due to AGN feedback and higher gas fractions in ELG halos suggesting weaker feedback.

abstract
In 2021 May the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) collaboration began a 5-year spectroscopic redshift survey to produce a detailed map of the evolving three-dimensional structure of the universe between $z=0$ and $z\approx4$. DESI's principle scientific objectives are to place precise constraints on the equation of state of dark energy, the gravitationally driven growth of large-scale structure, and the sum of the neutrino masses, and to explore the observational signatures of primordial inflation. We present DESI Data Release 1 (DR1), which consists of all data acquired during the first 13 months of the DESI main survey, as well as a uniform reprocessing of the DESI Survey Validation data which was previously made public in the DESI Early Data Release. The DR1 main survey includes high-confidence redshifts for 18.7M objects, of which 13.1M are spectroscopically classified as galaxies, 1.6M as quasars, and 4M as stars, making DR1 the largest sample of extragalactic redshifts ever assembled. We summarize the DR1 observations, the spectroscopic data-reduction pipeline and data products, large-scale structure catalogs, value-added catalogs, and describe how to access and interact with the data. In addition to fulfilling its core cosmological objectives with unprecedented precision, we expect DR1 to enable a wide range of transformational astrophysical studies and discoveries.

A large DESI sample reveals thousands of infalling cold gas absorbers at low redshift, with velocity distributions indicating multiple accretion pathways including radial inflows and satellite accretion.
A single end-to-end Transformer model unifies stellar labels from heterogeneous spectroscopic surveys into a self-consistent scale without post-hoc recalibration.
Vision-language models underperform specialized astronomical methods on real observational data, with accuracy improving when physical explanations are provided in prompts and when raw numerical measurements replace rendered plots.
Five low-redshift DESI galaxies exhibit SEDs and broad Balmer lines resembling high-z Little Red Dots but with higher masses and different BPT positions, possibly as later evolutionary stages.
Analytic compression of EFT parameters for Lyα forest P1D via Fisher matrix and linearization allows efficient marginalization, saturating constraints with linear bias plus five effective terms and forecasting 10% and 2% precision on Δ²_p and n_p at k_p=0.7 Mpc^{-1}.
A low-redshift-agnostic BAO compression applied to DESI data yields binned constraints on dark-energy density evolution X(z) that are consistent with a constant value.

DESI DR2 and ACT DR6 data yield 17σ LRG-velocity, 8.3σ ELG-velocity, and 6.8σ QSO-velocity detections plus a 3.1σ velocity-velocity signal, producing f_NL^loc = 15.9_{-34.4}^{+34.6} from the velocity field.

J1248+4826 is a newly identified compact ORC candidate with a ~30 kpc ring radius and ~200 kpc total extent at assumed z=0.2, consistent with the ORC population but with the host galaxy on the ring edge and no ongoing AGN activity.
FRB dispersion is an approximately unbiased tracer of matter on linear scales, enabling direct constraints on the baryonic parameter B8 independently of feedback and with statistical power comparable to weak lensing using far fewer objects.
High-significance kSZ measurements around LRGs show gas is redistributed beyond gravitational collapse and imply more efficient feedback in group-scale halos than in standard hydrodynamical models.

Post-starburst galaxies at cosmic noon show very low radio detection rates and compact weak sources, consistent with short-lived low-luminosity AGN, while older quiescent galaxies exhibit stronger extended radio emission.

Biconnection gravity produces extra geometric contributions to the Friedmann equations that act as effective dark energy; when parametrized in five common ways and fit to recent data, the Barboza-Alcaniz and logarithmic models are statistically competitive with LambdaCDM.
