An LSST-DESC Precursor Project: Hyper Suprime-Cam Year 1 pt in Harmonic Space
D. Sanchez-Cid, J. Sanchez, I. Sevilla-Noarbe +19
We present the first fully photometric joint analysis of weak gravitational lensing and galaxy clustering (32pt) in harmonic space with LSST-DESC analysis pipelines applied…
Probing Projection Effects in Optically-Selected Clusters with Velocity Dispersions Outliers
K. Graham, T. E. Jeltema, C. -H. To +8
The evolution of galaxy cluster abundance is a powerful probe of cosmology, but its efficacy depends on our ability to understand and control for systematics in the selection and m…
Early Telescope Throughput Results from the Collimated Beam Projector at the Vera C. Rubin Observatory
Nathan Amouroux, Parker Fagrelius, Thibault Guillemin +6
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory LSST requires precise photometric calibration to meet its science goals, particularly for cosmological analyses based on Type Ia supernovae. The Colli…
An overview of stray light findings and interpretation during on-sky commissioning of LSSTCam
Gabriele Rodeghiero, Alex Drlica-Wagner, Alessio Taranto +78
Wide-field telescopes are intrinsically difficult to shield from unwanted stray and scattered light, while the search to identify sources of contaminating light is frequently a cha…
The On-Sky Performance of the LSST Camera CCD Array
Sean Patrick MacBride, Aaron Roodman, Stuart Marshall +89
The focal plane of the LSST Camera contains 189 individual science CCDs, arranged into 21 raft tower modules, along with 4 wavefront and 8 guider CCDs located in 4 additional corne…
Modeling of the diffuse background produced by the Vera C. Rubin Observatory M2 baffle scattered light
Alessio Taranto, Gabriele Rodeghiero, Luca Rosignoli +58
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory, with its unprecedented field of view and fast focal ratio, will survey the entire sky every 3.5 nights. This unique capacity requires dealing with of…
