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…

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…
Expected Impact of Glints from Space Debris in the LSST
J. Anthony Tyson, Adam Snyder, Daniel Polin +2
We examine the simple model put forth in a recent note by Loeb regarding the brightness of space debris in the size range of 1-10 cm and their impact on the Rubin Observatory Legac…
Mitigation of LEO Satellite Brightness and Trail Effects on the Rubin Observatory LSST
J. Anthony Tyson, Željko Ivezić, Andrew Bradshaw +8
We report studies on the mitigation of optical effects of bright low-Earth-orbit (LEO) satellites on Vera C. Rubin Observatory and its Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). These…
Spectroscopic Needs for Imaging Dark Energy Experiments: Photometric Redshift Training and Calibration
J. Newman, A. Abate, F. Abdalla +58
Large sets of objects with spectroscopic redshift measurements will be needed for imaging dark energy experiments to achieve their full potential, serving two goals:_training_, i.e…
