Abstract · v1

We present cosmological results from the measurement of clustering of galaxy, quasar and Lyman-αα forest tracers from the first year of observations with the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI Data Release 1). We adopt the full-shape (FS) modeling of the power spectrum, including the effects of redshift-space distortions, in an analysis which has been validated in a series of supporting papers. In the flat ΛΛCDM cosmological model, DESI (FS+BAO), combined with a baryon density prior from Big Bang Nucleosynthesis and a weak prior on the scalar spectral index, determines matter density to Ωm=0.2962±0.0095Ω_\mathrm{m}=0.2962\pm 0.0095, and the amplitude of mass fluctuations to σ8=0.842±0.034σ_8=0.842\pm 0.034. The addition of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) data tightens these constraints to Ωm=0.3056±0.0049Ω_\mathrm{m}=0.3056\pm 0.0049 and σ8=0.8121±0.0053σ_8=0.8121\pm 0.0053, while further addition of the the joint clustering and lensing analysis from the Dark Energy Survey Year-3 (DESY3) data leads to a 0.4% determination of the Hubble constant, H0=(68.40±0.27) km s−1 Mpc−1H_0 = (68.40\pm 0.27)\,{\rm km\,s^{-1}\,Mpc^{-1}}. In models with a time-varying dark energy equation of state, combinations of DESI (FS+BAO) with CMB and type Ia supernovae continue to show the preference, previously found in the DESI DR1 BAO analysis, for w0>−1w_0>-1 and wa<0w_a<0 with similar levels of significance. DESI data, in combination with the CMB, impose the upper limits on the sum of the neutrino masses of ∑mν<0.071 eV\sum m_ν< 0.071\,{\rm eV} at 95% confidence. DESI data alone measure the modified-gravity parameter that controls the clustering of massive particles, μ0=0.11−0.54+0.45μ_0=0.11^{+0.45}_{-0.54}, while the combination of DESI with the CMB and the clustering and lensing analysis from DESY3 constrains both modified-gravity parameters, giving μ0=0.04±0.22μ_0 = 0.04\pm 0.22 and Σ0=0.044±0.047Σ_0 = 0.044\pm 0.047, in agreement with general relativity.
