AllSkySurvey

If you need access to the simulations or need more information contact us by email.

Goals:

• Test of Pipeline (eSASS) environment
• Test of NRTA environment
• Test of Data Access Tools (datool)
• Handling the large amount of data
• Derive computational requirements
• Estimate on the performance of the default source detection

Objects Types (planned):

• AGN
• Galaxy Cluster
• Stars
• Cataclysmic Variables

AGN:

• used the 4 AGN Catalogs by N. Clerc simulations as a "standard" catalog to get sources parameters
• applied a 5e-15 erg/s flux threshold to the the catalog
• rescaled the number of sources to match the 4700 skyfields for eROSITA and rolled new positions on a sphere
• reduced the nbins in the spectra from 1000 to 100 to improve performance of the simulation
• "remove" galactic NH from input catalog spectra
• determined NH for each source and applied it to the spectra
• more than 20.000.000 AGN

CV:

• Catalog of sources (CVS, IPS, POLARS) provided by Axel Schwope
• applied a flux threshold 1.0e-15 erg/s
• used unabsorbed flux / model / NH to create spectra useable by SIXTE
• few 100.000 sources

Galaxy Cluster:

• SIMPUT catalog provided by Jeremy Sanders, Sebastian Grandis, John Mohr
• more than 3.000.000 Galaxy Clusters with images
• currently up to 1.0e-20 erg/s
• next simulation will be reduced to match thresholds of other input catalogs

Stars:

• in contact Jan Robrade / Juergen Schmitt - plan to integrate catalog based on parts of the GAIA catalog
