The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope as a Near-Earth Object Discovery Machine
R. Lynne Jones, Colin T. Slater, Joachim Moeyens +7
Using the most recent prototypes, design, and as-built system information, we test and quantify the capability of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) to discover Potentially…
LSST Science Book, Version 2.0
LSST Science Collaboration, Paul A. Abell, Julius Allison +245
A survey that can cover the sky in optical bands over wide fields to faint magnitudes with a fast cadence will enable many of the exciting science opportunities of the next decade.…
LSST: from Science Drivers to Reference Design and Anticipated Data Products
Željko Ivezić, Steven M. Kahn, J. Anthony Tyson +310
(Abridged) We describe here the most ambitious survey currently planned in the optical, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). A vast array of science will be enabled by a sin…
PC1643+4631A,B: The Lyman-Alpha Forest at the Edge of Coherence
Caitlin M. Casey, Christopher D. Impey, Catherine E. Petry +2
This is the first measurement and detection of coherence in the intergalactic medium (IGM) at substantially high redshift (z~3.8) and on large physical scales (~2.5 h^-1 Mpc). We p…
Lyman-Alpha Absorption in the Quasar Triplet Q0107-025A, Q0107-025B, and Q0107-0232: Data Calibration and Line Selection
C. E. Petry, C. D. Impey, J. L. Fenton +1
We present spectroscopic observations for quasars Q0107-025A, Q0107-025B, and Q0107-0232. For the first time, all data obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope's GHRS and FOS for t…
Quasars as Absorption Probes of the J0053+1234 Region
D. H. McIntosh, C. D. Impey, C. E. Petry
We present UBRI photometry and spectra for 60 quasars found within one square degree centered on the J0053+1234 region, which has been the subject of the Caltech Faint Galaxy Redsh…
