PSFSim: PhySics First Simulations for the Point Spread Function of the Roman Space Telescope

Nihar Dalal, Chris Hirata, Charuhas Shiveshwarkar +6

We present a new tool for generating simulated point spread functions (PSFs) in the Wide Field Instrument (WFI) of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. The simulation tool is phy…

Robust Photometry for Roman High-Latitude Imaging Survey Cosmology Using Roman and Rubin Imaging

Chun-Hao To, Tae-Hyeon Shin, Chihway Chang +18

Accurate and precise photometry is essential for Roman cosmology because it affects photometric-redshift performance, galaxy and cluster selection, tomographic binning, and redshif…

Simulating image coaddition with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope: II. Analysis of the simulated images and implications for weak lensing

Masaya Yamamoto, Katherine Laliotis, Emily Macbeth +16

One challenge for applying current weak lensing analysis tools to the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is that individual images will be undersampled. Our companion paper presente…
