Assessing the Vera Rubin Observatory's Ability to Discover Asteroid Impactors Before They Collide with Earth
Qifeng Cheng, Daniel Scolnic, Jacob A. Kurlander +2
Asteroid impactors larger than ~10 m, from Chelyabinsk-scale airburst and Tunguska-scale events to >300 m continental threats, remain the dominant planetary-defense risk. While the…
Predictions of the LSST Solar System Yield: Neptune Trojans
Joseph Murtagh, Megan E. Schwamb, Pedro H. Bernardinelli +15
The NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), beginning full operations in late 2025, will dramatically transform solar system science by vastly e…
Predictions of the LSST Solar System Yield: Near-Earth Objects, Main Belt Asteroids, Jupiter Trojans, and Trans-Neptunian Objects
Jacob A. Kurlander, Pedro H. Bernardinelli, Megan E. Schwamb +18
The NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory is a new 8m-class survey facility presently being commissioned in Chile, expected to begin the 10yr-long Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST…
Predictions of the LSST Solar System Yield: Discovery Rates and Characterizations of Centaurs
Joseph Murtagh, Megan E. Schwamb, Stephanie R. Merritt +16
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will start by the end of 2025 and operate for ten years, offering billions of observations of the southern nigh…
Sorcha: A Solar System Survey Simulator for the Legacy Survey of Space and Time
Stephanie R. Merritt, Grigori Fedorets, Megan E. Schwamb +20
The upcoming Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) at the Vera C. Rubin Observatory is expected to revolutionize solar system astronomy. Unprecedented in scale, this ten-year wide…
A Pan-STARRS Search for Distant Planets: Part 1
Matthew J. Holman, Kevin J. Napier, Matthew J. Payne +1
We present a search for distant planets in Pan-STARRS1. We calibrated our search by injecting an isotropic control population of synthetic detections into Pan-STARRS1 source catalo…
