The Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science has awarded a $100,000 Project Grant to Northeastern University under the Office of Science Financial Assistance Program (CFDA 81.049). The funding will support the "COMMISSIONING ROBUST ANALYSIS TOOLS FOR LSST DESC" project, with a period of performance from November 1, 2023 to March 31, 2025. The project aims to develop advanced analysis tools and techniques to support the Dark Energy Science Collaboration (DESC) of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) project. As a leading research university with expertise in areas like artificial intelligence and data analytics, Northeastern will leverage its capabilities to deliver innovative software and algorithms that can robustly process and analyze the large-scale datasets generated by the LSST instruments. This work is expected to enhance the scientific value and insights derived from the LSST's observations, advancing DOE's mission in fundamental physics research.
