论文摘要
维拉·鲁宾(Vera Rubin)对时空(LSST)的840万鲁宾天文台遗产调查将于2023年开始对南半球天空进行十年调查。LSST将革新低表面亮度天文学。它将通过研究星系周围的低表面亮度特征(微弱的贝壳,潮汐尾巴,光环和恒星流),低表面亮度星系的发现以及在群集群中的首次统计测量值,从而改变我们对星系进化的理解。
The 8.4m Vera Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will start a ten-year survey of the southern hemisphere sky in 2023. LSST will revolutionise low surface brightness astronomy. It will transform our understanding of galaxy evolution, through the study of low surface brightness features around galaxies (faint shells, tidal tails, halos and stellar streams), discovery of low surface brightness galaxies and the first set of statistical measurements of the intracluster light over a significant range of cluster masses and redshifts.
