UFig v1: The ultra-fast image generator
Silvan Fischbacher, Beatrice Moser, Tomasz Kacprzak +8
With the rise of simulation-based inference (SBI) methods, simulations need to be fast as well as realistic. is a public Python package that simulates astronomic…
MICROSCOPE Mission scenario, ground segment and data processing
Manuel Rodrigues, Pierre Touboul, Gilles Métris +9
Testing the Weak Equivalence Principle (WEP) to a precision of requires a quantity of data that give enough confidence on the final result: ideally, the longer the measu…
Cold Atoms in Space: Community Workshop Summary and Proposed Road-Map
Ivan Alonso, Cristiano Alpigiani, Brett Altschul +246
We summarize the discussions at a virtual Community Workshop on Cold Atoms in Space concerning the status of cold atom technologies, the prospective scientific and societal opportu…
MICROSCOPE: systematic errors
Manuel Rodrigues, Pierre Touboul1, Gilles Metris +19
The MICROSCOPE mission aims to test the Weak Equivalence Principle (WEP) in orbit with an unprecedented precision of 10 on the Eötvös parameter thanks to electrostatic acce…
MICROSCOPE instrument in-flight characterization
Ratana Chhun, Emilie Hardy, Manuel Rodrigues +11
Since the MICROSCOPE instrument aims to measure accelerations as low as a few 10\,m\,s and cannot operate on ground, it was obvious to have a large time dedicated to…
The MICROSCOPE mission: first results of a space test of the Equivalence Principle
Pierre Touboul, Gilles Métris, Manuel Rodrigues +40
According to the Weak Equivalence Principle, all bodies should fall at the same rate in a gravitational field. The MICROSCOPE satellite, launched in April 2016, aims to test its va…
