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…
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…
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory Data Preview 1
Vera C Rubin Observatory Team, Tatiana Acero Cuellar, Emily Acosta +325
We present Rubin Data Preview 1 DP1, the first data from the NSF DOE Vera C Rubin Observatory, comprising raw and calibrated single epoch images, coadds, difference images, detecti…
Weak lensing mass-richness relation of redMaPPer clusters in the LSST DESC DC2 simulations
Constantin Payerne, Zhuowen Zhang, Michel Aguena +13
Cluster scaling relations are key ingredients in cluster abundance-based cosmological studies. In optical cluster cosmology, where clusters are detected through their richness, clu…
