Recommendations for Early Definition Science with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope
arxiv(2024)
摘要
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (Roman), NASA's next flagship
observatory, has significant mission time to be spent on surveys for general
astrophysics in addition to its three core community surveys. We considered
what types of observations outside the core surveys would most benefit from
early definition, given 700 hours of mission time in the first two years of
Roman's operation. We recommend that a survey of the Galactic plane be defined
early, based on the broad range of stakeholders for such a survey, the added
scientific value of a first pass to obtain a baseline for proper motions
complementary to Gaia's, and the significant potential synergies with
ground-based surveys, notably the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) on
Rubin. We also found strong motivation to follow a community definition process
for ultra-deep observations with Roman.
