THE PRISM MULTI-OBJECT SURVEY (PRIMUS). I. SURVEY OVERVIEW AND CHARACTERISTICS
Open accessAbstract
We present the PRIsm MUlti-object Survey (PRIMUS), a spectroscopic faint galaxy redshift survey to z ∼ 1. PRIMUS uses a low-dispersion prism and slitmasks to observe ∼2500 objects at once in a 0.18 deg 2 field of view, using the Inamori Magellan Areal Camera and Spectrograph camera on the Magellan I Baade 6.5 m telescope at Las Campanas Observatory. PRIMUS covers a total of 9.1 deg 2 of sky to a depth of i AB ∼ 23.5 in seven different deep, multi-wavelength fields that have coverage from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer , Spitzer , and either XMM or Chandra , as well as multiple-band optical and near-IR coverage. PRIMUS includes ∼130,000 robust redshifts of unique objects with a redshift precision of σ z /(1 + z ) ∼ 0.005. The redshift distribution peaks at z ∼ 0.6 and extends to z = 1.2 for galaxies and z = 5 for broad-line active galactic nuclei. The motivation, observational techniques, fields, target selection, slitmask design, and observations are presented here, with a brief summary of the redshift precision; a forthcoming paper presents the data reduction, redshift fitting, redshift confidence, and survey completeness. PRIMUS is the largest faint galaxy survey undertaken to date. The high targeting fraction (∼80%) and large survey size will allow for precise measures of galaxy properties and large-scale structure to z ∼ 1.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
