We describe the simulated sky survey underlying the second data challenge (DC2) carried
out in preparation for analysis of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space …

The low surface brightness (LSB) regime (μg≳ 26 mag arcsec− 2) comprises a vast, mostly
unexplored discovery space, from dwarf galaxies to the diffuse interstellar medium …

Abstract The Vera C. Rubin Observatory's LSST Camera (LSSTCam) pixel response has
been characterized using laboratory measurements with a grid of artificial stars. We quantify …

Thick, fully depleted charge-coupled devices are known to exhibit nonlinear behavior at high
signal levels due to the dynamic behavior of charges collecting in the potential wells of …

The prime camera with a mosaic charge-coupled device (CCD) array is the imaging terminal
of the wide field survey telescope (WFST), and the flatness of its focal plane array (FPA) is …

The LSST Camera for the Vera C. Rubin Observatory has been constructed at SLAC
National Accelerator Laboratory. The Camera covers a 3.5-degree field of view with 3.2 …

The LSST Camera is the sole instrument for the Vera C. Rubin Observatory and consists of a
3.2 gigapixel focal plane mosaic with in-vacuum controllers, dedicated guider and wavefront …

LSST will provide galaxy cluster catalogs up to z $\sim $1 that can be used to constrain
cosmological models once their selection function is well-understood. We have applied the …

The shipment of the LSST Camera from SLAC National Lab in California to Rubin
Observatory in Chile was completed successfully in spring 2024 after extensive road and …

The LSST Camera focal plane comprises twenty-one raft tower modules (RTMs), each with
nine CCD sensors and their associated electronics. RTMs are assembled at Brookhaven …
