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…
Redshift Assessment Infrastructure Layers (RAIL): Rubin-era photometric redshift stress-testing and at-scale production
The RAIL Team, Jan Luca van den Busch, Eric Charles +30
Virtually all extragalactic use cases of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) require the use of galaxy redshift information, yet the vast majorit…
StarDICE IV: correcting visible photometry from atmospheric gray extinction using thermal infrared observations
Kélian Sommer, Bertrand Plez, Johann Cohen-Tanugi +11
Ground-based surveys such as the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time require photometric calibration that is both long-term stable and spatially uniform at…
Opportunities in AI/ML for the Rubin LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration
LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration, Eric Aubourg, Camille Avestruz +63
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will produce unprecedented volumes of heterogeneous astronomical data (images, catalogs, and alerts) that cha…
Diagnosing the Effects of Spectroscopic Training Set Imperfection on Photometric Redshift Performance
Alice Crafford, Alex I. Malz, Tianqing Zhang +11
Most LSST extragalactic science will rely on photometric redshifts (photo-) to extract distance information for the galaxies. However, an incomplete or non-representative traini…
Enabling Early Transient Discovery in LSST via Difference Imaging with DECam
Yize Dong, Kaylee de Soto, V. Ashley Villar +58
We present SLIDE, a pipeline that enables transient discovery in data from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), using archival images from the Da…
