Mock Observations for the CSST Mission: Main Surveys--An Overview of Framework and Simulation Suite
Cheng-Liang Wei, Guo-Liang Li, Yue-Dong Fang +26
The Chinese Space Station Survey Telescope (CSST) is a flagship space-based observatory. Its main survey camera is designed to conduct high spatial resolution near-ultraviolet to n…
Mock Observations for the CSST Mission: Main Surveys--the Stray Light
Xian Jing-Tian, Lin Lin, Fang Yue-Dong +9
Stray light significantly influences the detection capabilities of astronomical telescopes. The actual stray-light level during observations depends not only on the telescope's inh…
Mock Observations for the CSST Mission: End-to-End Performance Modeling of Optical System
Zhang Ban, Xiao-Bo Li, Xun Yang +11
This study presents a comprehensive end-to-end simulation analysis of the optical imaging performance of the China Survey Space Telescope (CSST) under in-orbit conditions. An integ…
MCI: Multi-Channel Imager on the Chinese Space Station Survey Telescope
Zhen-Ya Zheng, Chun Xu, Xiaohua Liu +37
The Multi-Channel Imager (MCI) is a powerful near-ultraviolet (NUV) and visible imager onboard the Chinese Space Station Survey Telescope (CSST). The MCI provides three imaging cha…
The Velocity Aberration Effect of the CSST Main Survey Camera
Hui-Mei Feng, Zi-Huang Cao, Man I Lam +9
In this study, we conducted simulations to find the geometric aberrations expected for images taken by the Main Survey Camera (MSC) of the Chinese Space Station Telescope (CSST) du…
