Spectroscopy in the Era of LSST [CEA]

http://arxiv.org/abs/1311.2496


This report summarizes the results of the ‘Spectroscopy in the Era of LSST’ workshop held April 11-12, 2013 in Tucson, Arizona. At the workshop, there were breakout sessions covering four broad science topics. These were: time domain science, Galactic structure and stellar populations, galaxies and AGN, and dark energy and cosmology. We present the science cases discussed in these breakout sessions and provide a synthesis of highly desired capabilities that meet needs across all four broad topics. We also present a table that will be useful to characterize the needs of specific science cases in a format that provides a general framework for discussion of future spectroscopic capabilities.
