Euclid Reference Publications: the Flagship Simulations

Consortium, ESA, Publication, Science / By

In our final post on the Euclid Consortium’s new set of reference papers we are turning to an essential part, the final ingredient to enable Euclid’s cosmology goal: Paper 5 (Euclid. V. The Flagship galaxy mock catalogue: a comprehensive simulation for the Euclid mission, Euclid Collaboration: Castander et al. 2024) is about the newly completed cosmological simulation, the Euclid Flagship Simulation, providing a fully-controlled input for testing and characterising the Euclid science pipeline.

If this humidity collects on optical surfaces like mirrors, it will affect the optical performance of a space telescope. For this reason Euclid will undergo a second targeted de-icing process over the next days.
