Rubin Observatory/LSSTCam

Margaux Lopez is helping prepare the Vera Rubin Observatory for the arrival of the largest digital camera ever built for astrophysics and cosmology.

A new report outlines suggestions for federal investments needed for the next generation of transformative discoveries in particle physics and cosmology, including priority projects at SLAC.

Vera C. Rubin Observatory’s fast-moving telescope and huge digital camera will illuminate the faint glow of free-floating stars within galaxy clusters, providing unprecedented insight into the evolution of these dynamic structures.

The Secretary celebrated LCLS-II first light with 600 SLAC staff and collaborators Oct. 26.

As the SLAC-Stanford institute celebrates its 20th anniversary, three Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology researchers share what they’re most excited for in years to come. 

Vera C. Rubin Observatory’s unprecedented deep and wide survey will create most precise map of Universe ever.

Three SLAC scientists explain what they do to ensure the world's largest digital camera for astronomy is ready for the big time.

Vera C. Rubin Observatory’s Legacy Survey of Space and Time will revolutionize Solar System science by revealing a population of previously undiscovered interstellar comets and asteroids passing through our cosmic neighborhood.

It takes a lot of meetings, travel logistics and even tracking down some parts to keep a large team collaborating on a project like the LSST Camera. That’s where administrator Regina Matter comes in.

Just because matter is visible doesn’t mean it’s easy to see.

The synthetic galaxy catalog will help test Roman's capabilities and foster collaboration with the Rubin project. 

LSST Camera images provide the inspiration for artist Lennart Lahuis’s “Astromelancholia.”
