On a-prior bounding the growth of thermal instability waves
We have previously shown that the nonlinear growth of a finite-amplitude perturbation to a basic state given by a baroclinic zonal flow on the \b{eta}-plane in a thermal quasigeostrophic reduced-gravity model can be a-priori bounded. In this note we show that, unlike we stated earlier, Lyapunov stability can be proved even when buoyancy varies linearly with the meridional coordinate. In addition to rectifying our prior results we expand them by deriving an instability saturation bound by making…

Bright Star Subtraction Pipeline for LSST: Progress Review
We present the Bright Star Subtraction (BSS) pipeline for the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). This pipeline generates an extended PSF model using observed stars and subtracts the model from the bright stars in LSST data. When testing the pipeline on Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) data, we find that the shape of the extended PSF model depends on the location of the detector on the camera's focal plane. The closer a detector is to the edge of the focal plane, the less…

Dialogues between Astrobiology and Earth Pedagogy: a proposal to the continued training of science teachers
Introduction and Objective. Assuming the need to rethink Education and its function as an element of social transformation and generator of a profound ethical change and promoter of other ways of being on planet Earth, this study seeks to understand the possible dialogues between Earth Pedagogy and Astrobiology in the construction and proposition of continuing education processes for science teachers. Methodology. A mini-course was promoted aimed at teachers and an attempt was made to report th…

Using AI for Wavefront Estimation with the Rubin Observatory Active Optics System
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory will, over a period of 10 years, repeatedly survey the southern sky. To ensure that images generated by Rubin meet the quality requirements for precision science, the observatory will use an Active Optics System (AOS) to correct for alignment and mirror surface perturbations introduced by gravity and temperature gradients in the optical system. To accomplish this Rubin will use out-of-focus images from sensors located at the edge of the focal plane to learn and cor…
