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…

StarDICE IV: correcting visible photometry from atmospheric gray extinction using thermal infrared observations

Kélian Sommer, Bertrand Plez, Johann Cohen-Tanugi +11

Ground-based surveys such as the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time require photometric calibration that is both long-term stable and spatially uniform at…

The Simons Observatory: forecasted constraints on primordial gravitational waves with the expanded array of Small Aperture Telescopes

The Simons Observatory Collaboration, I. Abril-Cabezas, S. Adachi +479

We present updated forecasts for the scientific performance of the degree-scale (0.5 deg FWHM at 93 GHz), deep-field survey to be conducted by the Simons Observatory (SO). By 2027,…

How the StarDICE photometric calibration of standard stars can improve cosmological constraints?

T. Souverin, J. Neveu, M. Betoule +16

The number of type Ia supernova (SNe Ia) observations will grow significantly within the next decade, mainly thanks to the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) undertaken by the…

StarDICE III: Characterization of the photometric instrument with a Collimated Beam Projector

Thierry Souverin, Jérémy Neveu, Marc Betoule +18

The measurement of type Ia supernovae magnitudes provides cosmological distances, which can be used to constrain dark energy parameters. Large photometric surveys require a substan…
