Constructing a Mock Galaxy Catalog for the All-sky SPECtroscopic Survey of Nearby Galaxies (A-SPEC) Using the Machine-assisted Semi-Simulation Model
Dongkok Kim, Yongseok Jo, Ho Seong Hwang +26
We present a methodology for constructing a mock galaxy catalog for the All-sky SPECtroscopic survey of nearby galaxies (A-SPEC) using the Machine-assisted Semi-Simulation Model. T…
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…
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…
A New Collision Avoidance Fiber Assignment Algorithm for Robotic Fiber Positioners in Multi-Object Spectroscopy
Minseong Kwon, Ho Seong Hwang, Jong Chul Lee +22
We present a new fiber assignment algorithm for a robotic fiber positioner system in multi-object spectroscopy. Modern fiber positioner systems typically have overlapping patrol re…
