Abstract: |
To help facilitate the development of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) data analysis
pipeline, it was necessary to produce simulated flight data with sufficient fidelity and volume to exercise all the
capabilities of the pipeline in an integrated way. As a generator of simulated flight data, Lilith, was
developed for this purpose. Full instrumental and astrophysical ground truth is available and can be used as a
training set for TESS data analysis software. Our intention is to continue to tune Lilith as real
TESS flight data becomes available, allowing for an up-to-date simulated set of data products to complement
the mission flight data products, thereby aiding researchers as they continue to adapt their tools to the
TESS data streams. |
