Science Impacts of the SPHEREx All-Sky Optical to Near-Infrared Spectral Survey II: Report of a Community Workshop on the Scientific Synergies Between the SPHEREx Survey and Other Astronomy Observatories

Understand

SPHEREx is a proposed NASA MIDEX mission selected for Phase A study.

• SPHEREx would carry out the first all-sky spectral survey in the near infrared.
• At the end of its two-year mission, SPHEREx would obtain 0.75-to-5$\mu$m spectra of every 6.2 arcsec pixel on the sky, with spectral resolution R>35 and a 5-$\sigma$ sensitivity AB$>$19 per spectral/spatial resolution element.
• More details concerning SPHEREx are available at http://spherex.caltech.edu.
