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.

  1. Lensing-Reconstructed Dark Matter-Intracluster Medium Coherence as a Probe of Cluster Dynamical State: Application to HSTFF, RELICS, and CLASH Clusters

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Fourier coherence length between lensing mass and X-ray gas maps diagnoses cluster dynamical state, classifying only 16% as relaxed under a strict threshold and showing 24% disagreement with earlier classifications.

  2. Cutting with precision -- Leveraging Collapse Volumes to generate the next generation of zoom-in initial conditions

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Presents a new technique using collapse volumes to generate stable, low-contamination zoom-in initial conditions for SLOW constrained simulations, with tests on 20 regions showing pristine volumes beyond 6 virial radii.

  3. Advancing the detection of low surface brightness galaxies. I. ATTILA: multi-tAsking deTecTIon tool for Lsb gAlaxies

    astro-ph.GA 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    ATTILA tool identifies 24 new ultra-diffuse galaxies in Hydra I, doubling the known population to 48, plus 92 additional low surface brightness galaxies, while recovering over 80% of previously known ones.

  4. Accurate Galaxy Cluster Shear and Mass Calibration for LSST with AnaCal

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    AnaCal recovers input shear with low bias in high-shear cluster regimes under LSST-like conditions, producing 0.24% mean mass bias.
