Description

The Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) is a 10-year survey that will be conducted by the Vera Rubin Observatory (VRO). We will focus on the preparation of the analysis for galaxy clusters in VRO through three projects:
1) Calibration of the telescope's photometric response with the Colimated Beam Projector (CBP).
2) Bright objects masking at the object catalog level.
3) Galaxy clusters detection with the Adaptative Matched Identifier of Clustered Objects (AMICO) algorithm.
