Roman Data Challenge 2 Simulated Images
Summary
Troxel et al. (2023)
have simulated 20 square degrees of overlapping synthetic imaging surveys
representing the full depth of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope High-Latitude
Imaging Survey (HLIS) observing the Dark Energy Science Collaboration (DESC)
Data Challenge 2 (DC2) universe. They simulate for the first time fully
chromatic images along with the detailed physics of the Sensor Chip Assemblies
derived from lab measurements using the flight detectors. The simulated imaging
and resulting pixel-level measurements of photometric properties of objects span
a wavelength range of ~0.3 to 2.0 microns.
