Hyrax: An Extensible Framework for Rapid ML Experimentation and Unsupervised Discovery in the Era of Rubin, Roman, and Euclid
Aritra Ghosh, Drew Oldag, Michael Tauraso +29
The NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory, Roman Space Telescope, Euclid, and other next-generation surveys will deliver imaging, spectroscopic, and time-domain data at scales that inc…
LightCurveLynx: Forward Modeling of Time-Domain Surveys with Application to ZTF SN Ia DR2
Mi Dai, Jeremy Kubica, Konstantin Malanchev +5
We present LightCurveLynx, a flexible and extensible software framework for end-to-end forward modeling time-domain light curves. Given the growing need for realistic simulations i…
Predictions of the LSST Solar System Yield: Neptune Trojans
Joseph Murtagh, Megan E. Schwamb, Pedro H. Bernardinelli +15
The NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), beginning full operations in late 2025, will dramatically transform solar system science by vastly e…
Using LSDB to enable large-scale catalog distribution, cross-matching, and analytics
Neven Caplar, Wilson Beebe, Doug Branton +9
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory will generate an unprecedented volume of data, including approximately 60 petabytes of raw data and around 30 trillion observed sources, posing a sign…
Variability-finding in Rubin Data Preview 1 with LSDB
Konstantin Malanchev, Melissa DeLucchi, Neven Caplar +56
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory recently released Data Preview 1 (DP1) in advance of the upcoming Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), which will enable boundless discoveries in t…
