TESS Lilith-4 Simulated Data Set

This data set contains simulated observations conducted with the TESS observatory over the period of four consecutive sectors spanning JD = 2458310.5507 to JD = 2458423.3201 at four different pointings. The simulated pixel data was generated using the Lilith simulator and then processed through the TESS Science Processing Operations Center science pipeline to generate simulated archival data products. The simulation includes models for the CCDs, readout electronics, camera optics (including thermal transients), behavior of the attitude control system (ACS), spacecraft orbit, spacecraft jitter and the sky, including zodiacal light, and the TESS Input Catalog. The model also incorporates realistic instances of stellar astrophysics, including stellar variability, eclipsing binaries, background eclipsing binaries, transiting planets and diffuse light.
