Euclid Structural-Thermal-Optical Performance
Euclid Collaboration, A. Anselmi, R. Laureijs +290
The Euclid system performance is defined in terms of image quality metrics tuned to the weak gravitational lensing (WL) cosmological probe. WL induces stringent requirements on the…
Euclid preparation. Overview of Euclid infrared detector performance from ground tests
Euclid Collaboration, B. Kubik, R. Barbier +341
The paper describes the objectives, design and findings of the pre-launch ground characterisation campaigns of the Euclid infrared detectors. The pixel properties, including baseli…
Performance of the image persistence model for Euclid infrared detectors
B. Kubik, R. Barbier, G. Smadja +99
Large-format infrared detectors are at the heart of major ground and space-based astronomical instruments, and the HgCdTe HxRG is the most widely used. The Near Infrared Spectromet…
Euclid preparation LXXI. Simulations and nonlinearities beyond CDM. 3. Constraints on models from the photometric primary probes
Euclid Collaboration, K. Koyama, S. Pamuk +275
We study the constraint on gravity that can be obtained by photometric primary probes of the Euclid mission. Our focus is the dependence of the constraint on the theoretical…
Euclid preparation LXIII. Simulations and nonlinearities beyond CDM. 2. Results from non-standard simulations
Euclid Collaboration, G. Rácz, M. -A. Breton +275
The Euclid mission will measure cosmological parameters with unprecedented precision. To distinguish between cosmological models, it is essential to generate realistic mock observa…
Euclid. II. The VIS Instrument
Euclid Collaboration, M. S. Cropper, A. Al-Bahlawan +432
This paper presents the specification, design, and development of the Visible Camera (VIS) on the ESA Euclid mission. VIS is a large optical-band imager with a field of view of 0.5…
