DOI：: 10.1088/1538-3873/abaca8

英文摘要：

On large telescopes trails of MegaConstellation's satellites will appears significantly defocused because of their relatively short distance. Because of such effect their apparent surface brightness will be, under a range of conditions, almost constant during their apparent sweeping on the focal plane of such large facilities. A few simple relationships are worked out and discussed to show the apparent brightness of such trails, in order to evaluate their impact on operations of large optical ground based facilities.

Visibility Predictions for Near-Future Satellite Megaconstellations: Latitudes near 50 Degrees will Experience the Worst Light Pollution

Megaconstellations of thousands to tens of thousands of artificial satellites (satcons) are rapidly being developed and launched. These satcons will have negative consequences for observational astronomy research, and are poised to drastically interfere with naked-eye stargazing worldwide should mitigation efforts be unsuccessful. Here we provide predictions for the optical brightnesses and on-sky distributions of several satcons, including Starlink, OneWeb, Kuiper, and StarNet/GW, for a total of 65,000 satellites on their filed or predicted orbits. We develop a simple model of satellite refle…

Mitigation of LEO Satellite Brightness and Trail Effects on the Rubin Observatory LSST

We report studies on the mitigation of optical effects of bright low-Earth-orbit (LEO) satellites on Vera C. Rubin Observatory and its Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). These include options for pointing the telescope to avoid satellites, laboratory investigations of bright trails on the Rubin Observatory LSST camera sensors, algorithms for correcting image artifacts caused by bright trails, experiments on darkening SpaceX Starlink satellites, and ground-based follow-up observations. The original Starlink v0.9 satellites are g ~ 4.5 mag, and the initial experiment "DarkSat" is g ~ 6.1 ma…

Mitigating Satellite Trails: a Study of Residual Light after Masking

Using Hyper Suprime Camera data (a precursor of what is to come with Rubin Observatory) we assess trail masking mitigation strategies for satellite contamination. We examine HSC data of the Hubble COSMOS field where satellite trails have been identified by eye. Exercising the current LSST Science Pipelines on this data, we study the efficacy of masking satellite trails which appear in single visit exposures before they are assembled into a coadded frame. We find that the current routines largely mask satellite trails in single visits, but miss the extended low surface brightness features of th…

On the trail of a comet's tail: A particle tracking algorithm for comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

Context. During the post-perihelion phase of the European Space Agency's Rosetta mission to comet 67P, the Optical, Spectroscopic, and Infrared Remote Imaging System on board the spacecraft took numerous image sequences of the near-nucleus coma, with many showing the motion of individual pieces of debris ejected from active surface areas into space. Aims. We aim to track the motion of individual particles in these image sequences and derive their projected velocities and accelerations. This should help us to constrain their point of origin on the surface, understand the forces that influence t…

Astrosat: Forecasting satellite transits for optical astronomical observations

The impact of large-scale constellations of satellites, is a concern for ground-based astronomers. In recent years there has been a significant increase in the number of satellites in Low-Earth Orbit and this trend is set to continue. The large number of satellites increases the probability that one will enter the field of view of a ground-based telescope at the right solar angle to appear bright enough that it can corrupt delicate measurements. We present a new tool Astrosat that will project satellite orbits onto the RA/DEC coordinate system for a given observer location and time and field o…

Simultaneous Multicolor Observations of Starlink's Darksat by The Murikabushi Telescope with $MITSuME$

We present the $g'$-, $R_{\rm c}$-, and $I_{\rm c}$-band magnitudes and associated colors of the Starlink's STARLINK-1113 (one of the standard Starlink satellites) and 1130 (Darksat) with a darkening treatment to its surface. By the 105 cm Murikabushi telescope/$\it{MITSuME}$, simultaneous multicolor observations for the above satellites were conducted four times: on April 10, 2020, May 18, 2020 (for Darksat), and June 11, 2020 (for Darksat and STARLINK-1113). We found that (1) $g'$-band apparent magnitudes of Darksat ($6.95~\pm~0.11-7.65~\pm~0.11$ mag) are comparable to or brighter than that …

Concerns about ground based astronomical observations: a step to safeguard the astronomical sky

This article aims to highlight the impact for ground based astronomical observations in different windows of the electromagnetic spectrum coming from the deployment of fleets of telecommunications satellites. A particular attention is given to the problem of crowding of circumterrestrial space by medium/small size orbiting objects. Depending on their altitude and surface reflectivity, their contribution to the sky brightness is not negligible for professional ground based observations. With the huge amount of about 50,000 new artificial satellites for telecommunications planned to be launched …
