EDFS (southern field)

Dark energy, via Type Ia supernovae

What this is

The Euclid Deep Field South, chosen so Roman's time-domain data overlaps an existing deep survey.

Two fields revisited every few days to catch supernovae rising and fading, with prism spectroscopy to classify them. Target: ~25,000 Type Ia below redshift 2.

No survey products yet. Products for EDFS (southern field) will list here as MAST publishes them.
