Claims
We find that the attenuated luminosity functions reproduce observed galaxy statistics across multiple wavelengths and redshifts. Using this calibrated framework, we construct LSST-ready mock photometric catalogs over 0 <= z <= 2 in steps of Delta z = 0.1, containing ~378 million galaxies.
The dust attenuation prescription in which optical depth scales with metal surface density, calibrated only at z=0 using SDSS luminosity functions, remains accurate when applied at higher redshifts up to z=1.5 and to the LSST ugrizy bands.
ASTRID simulation with dust model calibrated to SDSS at z=0 produces validated luminosity functions and LSST-ready mock catalogs of 378 million galaxies with predicted number counts in ugrizy bands from z=0 to 2.
