LSST Solar System Science Collaboration (SSSC) Active objects Working Group (Acting Lead: Mike Kelley): broadly consisting of all categories of activity in the minor planet populations: short period comets, long period comets, main belt comets, impact- or rotationally-generated active David Trilling & Meg Schwamb asteroids,etc SSSC Co-Chairs Community software/infrastructure development Working Group (Lead: Henry Hsieh ): broadly consisting of people interested in helping build databases, software packages, etc to be used by the Solar System community on LSST data www.lsstsssc.org Inner Solar System Working Group (Lead: Cristina Thomas): broadly consisting of the main belt, Mars/Jupiter Trojans, and Jupiter irregular satellites NEOs (Near Earth Objects) and Interstellar Objects Working Group (Lead: Steve Chesley): broadly consisting of objects on orbits inward of or di ff using inward from the main belt as well as Wes Fraser interstellar objects temporarily residing in the Solar System LSST : UK Solar System POC Outer Solar System Working Group (Lead: Darin Ragozzine and Matt Holman): broadly consisting of KBOs, Centaurs, Oort cloud, Saturn/Neptune/Uranus Trojans, and Saturn/Neptune/ Uranus irregular satellites

So we have a Science Road Map, what’s next? Coming up with quantitative measures that can be used to measure how successful a LSST proposed cadence achieves that science priority/goal Working group leads are gathering your opinions, please give them feedback. Aim to have all feedback collected by DPS
SSSC Website has latest info on MOPS and Alert Stream as presented at the Readiness Sprint Software tab Data Products tab http://www.lsstsssc.org
Readiness Sprint Outcome: Solar System Data Products Update Proposal • Presented the Solar System processing changes currently being considered. • Developed the updated schema (data model) for the LSST Solar System Data Products. Mario will start putting this new schema through the LSST DM change control process. • Final chance to look & comment (for now); ~this is what we’re looking to take Review the new schema at: http://ls.st/j7f (first tab only) into commissioning. Provide feedback via this form by September 1st https://goo.gl/forms/JPoBhdRGk1pynsKk2 Recommend reviewing & coming up with feedback during the LSST 2018 Solar System sessions Slide Adapted from Mario Juri ć
