Constraining Galaxy Cluster Triaxiality via Weak Lensing -- I. Preparation for the Rubin Data Beyond Leading Order
Shenming Fu, Radhakrishnan Srinivasan, Tae-hyeon Shin +13
The 3D mass distributions of galaxy clusters are generally triaxial, a geometry that is difficult to constrain from projected observations. In this work, we measure the projected h…
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory Data Preview 1
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…
A Path to an All-Sky Survey with Roman
Jiwon Jesse Han, Anirudh Chiti, Kai-Feng Chen +93
A deep, space-based, all-sky near-infrared survey carried out with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope would constitute a foundational astronomical infrastructure for decades to…
Quantifying the Impact of LSST -band Survey Strategy on Photometric Redshift Estimation and the Detection of Lyman-break Galaxies
John Franklin Crenshaw, Boris Leistedt, Melissa Lynn Graham +8
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory will conduct the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), promising to discover billions of galaxies out to redshift 7, using six photometric bands ($u…
Photometric Redshift Estimation for Rubin Observatory Data Preview 1 with Redshift Assessment Infrastructure Layers (RAIL)
T. Zhang, E. Charles, J. F. Crenshaw +87
We present the first systematic analysis of photometric redshifts (photo-z) estimated from the Rubin Observatory Data Preview 1 (DP1) data taken with the Legacy Survey of Space and…
Weak lensing mass-richness relation of redMaPPer clusters in the LSST DESC DC2 simulations
Constantin Payerne, Zhuowen Zhang, Michel Aguena +13
Cluster scaling relations are key ingredients in cluster abundance-based cosmological studies. In optical cluster cosmology, where clusters are detected through their richness, clu…
