摘要:

数据挑战1(DC 1)是鲁宾天文台时空遗产调查(LSST)暗能量科学合作组织(DESC)制作的第一个合成数据集。DC 1旨在开发和验证数据简化和分析,并研究将影响LSST数据集的系统效应的影响。DC 1由40度$^{2}$到10年LSST深度的$r$波段观测组成。我们提出了模拟和分析过程的每个阶段:a)生成,通过在具有不同观测条件的单个传感器访问图像中合成来自宇宙学N体模拟的源; b)使用LSST科学管道的开发版本进行还原;以及c)匹配输入宇宙学目录进行验证和测试。我们验证可测试LSST要求在DC 1的保真度范围内通过。我们建立了一个选择程序,产生一个足够干净的河外星系样本聚类分析,我们讨论了剩余的样本污染,包括在恒星-星系分离和不完善的去混合效率低下的贡献。我们在模拟场上计算了星系的功率谱,并得出结论:i)调查性质对DC 1中使用的尺度和模型的统计不确定性有50%的影响ii)选择消除星表中的伪影是必要的,以避免测量聚类中的偏差; iii)明亮天体的存在对小尺度下的估计功率谱($\ell > 1200$)有显著影响(2-至6- $σ$),突出了LSST中小角度尺度研究中混合的影响;

英文摘要:

Data Challenge 1 (DC1) is the first synthetic dataset produced by the Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) Dark Energy Science Collaboration (DESC). DC1 is designed to develop and validate data reduction and analysis and to study the impact of systematic effects that will affect the LSST dataset. DC1 is comprised of $r$-band observations of 40 deg$^{2}$ to 10-year LSST depth. We present each stage of the simulation and analysis process: a) generation, by synthesizing sources from cosmological N-body simulations in individual sensor-visit images with different observing conditions; b) reduction using a development version of the LSST Science Pipelines; and c) matching to the input cosmological catalog for validation and testing. We verify that testable LSST requirements pass within the fidelity of DC1. We establish a selection procedure that produces a sufficiently clean extragalactic sample for clustering analyses and we discuss residual sample contamination, including contributions from inefficiency in star-galaxy separation and imperfect deblending. We compute the galaxy power spectrum on the simulated field and conclude that: i) survey properties have an impact of 50\% of the statistical uncertainty for the scales and models used in DC1 ii) a selection to eliminate artifacts in the catalogs is necessary to avoid biases in the measured clustering; iii) the presence of bright objects has a significant impact (2- to 6-$σ$) in the estimated power spectra at small scales ($\ell > 1200$), highlighting the impact of blending in studies at small angular scales in LSST;
