Josef Frisch, Paul O'Connor
For many decades High Energy Physics (HEP) instrumentation has been concentrated on detectors of ionizing radiation -- where the energy of incident particles or photons is sufficie…
Laboratory Measurements of Instrumental Signatures of the LSST Camera Focal Plane
Adam Snyder, Aurelien Barrau, Andrew Bradshaw +19
Electro-optical testing and characterization of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) Camera focal plane, consisting of 205 charge-coupled devices (C…
The Baryon Mapping Experiment (BMX), a 21cm intensity mapping pathfinder
Paul O'Connor, Anže Slosar, Maile Harris +10
The Baryon Mapping eXperiment (BMX) is an interferometric array designed as a pathfinder for a future post-reionization 21 cm intensity mapping survey. It consists of four 4-meter…
The LSST DESC DC2 Simulated Sky Survey
LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration, Bela Abolfathi, David Alonso +77
We describe the simulated sky survey underlying the second data challenge (DC2) carried out in preparation for analysis of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and…
Uniformity and Stability of the LSST Focal Plane
Paul O'Connor
The LSST focal plane consists of 21 autonomous modules ("Raft Tower Modules", RTM), each of which contains nine thick, fully-depleted 4K x 4K CCDs with associated control and reado…
High fidelity point-spread function retrieval in the presence of electrostatic, hysteretic pixel response
Andrew Rasmussen, Augustin Guyonnet, Craig Lage +11
We employ electrostatic conversion drift calculations to match CCD pixel signal covariances observed in flat field exposures acquired using candidate sensor devices for the LSST Ca…
