Paper
Impact of Calibration Systematics on Dark Energy Constraints from LSST Type Ia Supernovae
2026
Overview
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will deliver an unprecedented Type Ia supernova (SN) sample, making photometric calibration systematics a dominant source of uncertainty in dark energy constraints. We perform a comprehensive analysis of calibration systematic effects in LSST, quantifying how uncertainties in the LSST passbands propagate into biases in SN distance moduli and, consequently, the dark energy equation of state parameters. Specifically, we examine how the inferred values and uncertainties of \\(w_0\\) and \\(w_a\\) shift as a function of the amplitude of passband systematics. For linear passband tilts, we find that the best-fit (\\(w_0\\),\\(w_a\\)) shifts by \\(\\)0.025\\(\\) and the \\(w_0-w_a\\) contour area increases by \\(\\)5% for each 1%/100nm increase in tilt, while for quadratic passband tilts, our results are less conclusive and warrant further exploration. This analysis will help inform the calibration accuracy required for LSST to achieve its goals in constraining dark energy.
