Description

The Cosmology Redshift Survey of the 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST-CRS) will provide the most extensive spectroscopic redshift catalogue of galaxies and quasars over 5700 deg² in the southern hemisphere.
As targets for the 4MOST-CRS, we present a selection of a sample of Bright Galaxies (BG) and Luminous Red Galaxies (LRG) in the redshift ranges $0.1<z<0.5$ and $0.4<z<1$, respectively.
We will also show the synergistic power with DESI and the possibility to provide redshifts to big cosmological surveys as Euclid, LSST, CMB experiments and radio interferometers
