Learn MoreKeck awards 10 nights for Euclid calibration
December 6, 2017 • News ReleaseDr. Dan Masters (JPL) is the PI of a successful Keck proposal for a 2-semester, 10 night Key Strategic Mission Support program to complete the Euclid calibration in support of both the NASA PCOS and COS science goals. A primary objective of both Euclid and WFIRST is to provide a 3D map of the distribution of matter across a significant fraction of the universe from the weak lensing shear field, but to do so requires accurate redshifts to the billions of galaxies that comprise the weak lensing samples of these surveys. This award supports part of the ambitious program called "Complete Calibration of the Color-Redshift Relation (C3R2) survey", which aims to comprehensively map the empirical galaxy color-redshift relation to the depth of the Euclid mission.
