Euclid & LSST - Euclid VIS ≤ 24.5 AB Magnitude (Rhodes et al. 2017) - LSST ≤ 27.5 AB Magnitude (Rhodes et al. 2017) - Euclid VIS PSF = 0.18’’ (Cropper et al. 2016) - LSST median seeing 0.7’’ (Rhodes et al. 2017) Euclid Survey Area 15000 !"# $ (Euclid site) LSST Main Survey Area 18000 !"# $ (LSST site) - - Blending has a non-trivial impact on the Euclid survey, even more on LSST survey (PSF 3-4 times wider) Estimated number of blended sources will be about 40% of all LSST objects (Dawson et al. 2016) Main Survey LSST overlapping Euclid area 7000 deg^2 (46%) - 11000 deg^2 (73%) (Rhodes et al. 2017) The ideal situation is to find an algorithm valid to both the surveys Deblending in the Euclid survey as a starting point for deblending in LSST overlapping areas can be considered #lsst2018 LSST Project and Community Workshop 2018 • Tucson • August 13 - 17 2

SExtractor SExtractor (Bertin and Arnouts 1996) Multi-threshold approach Two Main Deblending parameters: DEBLEND_MINCONT: Minimum contrast parameter for deblending (% flux for single branch) DEBLEND_NTHRESH: Number of deblending sub-threshold - Status: First version implemented in the Euclid MER pipeline, tested on MER-PHZ Data- challenges and ran in Scientific Challenge 3 (SC3) - (SExtractor) with parameters optimized after tests on Euclid-like images #lsst2018 LSST Project and Community Workshop 2018 • Tucson • August 13 - 17 3

Datasets Examining the ambigous blends in HST catalog ∼ 75% of blendings are composed of just two objects (Dawson et al. 2016) Datasets: We create cubes of simulated images with related “true map” Our datasets are used to measure the deblending efficiency of different algorithms taking care of N t r N u e i m over/under deblending and fraction of correctly m a a g e p s s reconstructed objects Datasets are produced: The objects have different: magnitudes, - with bulges or disks objects using Skymaker sizes, distances, morphology, etc. (Sersic models) (E.Bertin 2009) - with real CANDELS-GS cutouts #lsst2018 LSST Project and Community Workshop 2018 • Tucson • August 13 - 17 6

Preliminary Results ASTErIsM Parameters map of deblending performance 2-objects dataset single object dataset Reddish zones mean higher deblending performance #lsst2018 LSST Project and Community Workshop 2018 • Tucson • August 13 - 17 8

Conclusion & Future developments Conclusions: ASTErIsM and Sextractor have similar performances with the right set of parameters For ASTErIsM a set of parameters which reduces over/under deblending has been found For Sextractor it’s seems to be not so trivial Future developments: - New datasets will be used for tests - Comparison with other Deblenders - Possible implementation of CNN (M.Huertas-Company, A.Boucaud) #lsst2018 LSST Project and Community Workshop 2018 • Tucson • August 13 - 17 11
