The LSST Science Pipelines Software: Optical Survey Pipeline Reduction and Analysis Environment
Rubin Observatory Science Pipelines Developers, Yusra AlSayyad, Robert Armstrong +83
The NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory is executing the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) as its prime mission, producing a series of data releases over the ten-year survey. Th…
The "dark dips" phenomenon in the LSST Camera on-sky images
Claire Juramy, Pierre Antilogus, Pierre Astier +4
When the commissioning camera (ComCam), and then the LSST Camera, started taking on-sky images at the Vera Rubin Observatory, some of the ITL STA3800 CCDs exhibited a previously un…
The Rubin Observatory Target-of-Opportunity System in the First Year of Operations
Sean Patrick MacBride, R. Lynne Jones, Peter Yoachim +41
The NSF/DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory is a discovery machine, with unprecedented survey speed, which can be used to identify exotic astrophysical transients. In its prime mission,…
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…
GRB 260310A/SN 2026fgk: Photometric and Spectroscopic Evolution of a Nearby GRB-Supernova and an Exceptionally Bright Afterglow at z=0.153
Brendan O'Connor, Malte Busmann, Xander J. Hall +24
The association of broad-lined Type Ic supernovae with long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) has been known for 28 years. However, only about seventy gamma-ray burst supernovae (GR…
EP260321a/SN 2026gzf: The Faintest Shock Breakout Associated with a Broad-Lined Supernova
Brendan O'Connor, Xander J. Hall, Malte Busmann +33
The explosion of a star is first marked by the shock wave breaking out of the stellar surface, producing a burst of ultraviolet and X-ray radiation. These events are observationall…
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…
The DESI Transients Survey: Legacy Classifications and Methodology
Xander J. Hall, Antonella Palmese, Segev BenZvi +56
We present the first systematic spectroscopic observations of extragalactic transients from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), as part of the DESI Transients Survey p…
Uncovering the Next Galactic Supernova with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory
John Banovetz, Claire-Alice Hebert, Peter B. Denton +3
Supernovae are observed to occur approximately 1-2 times per century in a galaxy like the Milky Way. Based on historical records, however, the last core-collapse galactic supernova…
AT2025ulz and S250818k: Leveraging DESI spectroscopy in the hunt for a kilonova associated with a sub-solar mass gravitational wave candidate
Xander J. Hall, Antonella Palmese, Brendan O'Connor +47
On August 18th, 2025, the LIGO--Virgo--KAGRA collaboration reported a sub-threshold gravitational wave candidate detection consistent with a sub-solar-mass neutron star merger, den…
'Weather' in the LSST Camera: Investigating Patterns in Differenced Flat Images
John Banovetz, Yousuke Utsumi, Joshua Meyers +3
During electro-optical testing of the camera for the upcoming Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time, a unique low-signal pattern was found in differenced pairs…
Rubin ToO 2024: Envisioning the Vera C. Rubin Observatory LSST Target of Opportunity program
Igor Andreoni, Raffaella Margutti, John Banovetz +86
The Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) at Vera C. Rubin Observatory is planned to begin in the Fall of 2025. The LSST survey cadence has been designed via a community-driven pr…
