Euclid: Quick Data Release (Q1) -- LensMC shear measurement catalogue for cluster lensing science
G. Congedo, M. Sereno, H. Miyatake +140
We present a LensMC lensing analysis of Euclid Quick Release 1 images that were made available in March 2025. We measured shapes, positions, weights, and other morphological parame…
Euclid: An automated system to match Rubin transient alerts to Euclid observations
C. Duffy, I. M. Hook, C. M. Gutierrez +150
The Vera C. Rubin observatory is expected to produce 10 million transient alerts per night in ugrizy filters, whilst Euclid is a visible to near-infrared space telescope engaged in…
Euclid preparation LXX. Forecasting detection limits for intracluster light in the Euclid Wide Survey
Euclid Collaboration, C. Bellhouse, J. B. Golden-Marx +292
The intracluster light (ICL) permeating galaxy clusters is a tracer of the cluster's assembly history, and potentially a tracer of their dark matter structure. In this work we expl…
Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1) -- Data release overview
Euclid Collaboration, H. Aussel, I. Tereno +407
The first Euclid Quick Data Release, Q1, comprises 63.1 sq deg of the Euclid Deep Fields (EDFs) to nominal wide-survey depth. It encompasses visible and near-infrared space-based i…
Euclid. II. The VIS Instrument
Euclid Collaboration, M. S. Cropper, A. Al-Bahlawan +432
This paper presents the specification, design, and development of the Visible Camera (VIS) on the ESA Euclid mission. VIS is a large optical-band imager with a field of view of 0.5…
Euclid preparation. LIII. LensMC, weak lensing cosmic shear measurement with forward modelling and Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling
Euclid Collaboration, G. Congedo, L. Miller +239
LensMC is a weak lensing shear measurement method developed for Euclid and Stage-IV surveys. It is based on forward modelling in order to deal with convolution by a point spread fu…
