摘要
Vera C. Rubin 天文台的时空遗产巡天（LSST）计划于 2025 年秋季开始。LSST 巡天节奏通过由巡天节奏优化委员会（SCOC）监管的社区驱动过程设计，该委员会建议最多分配 3% 的观测时间用于机会目标（ToO）观测。来自科学界的专家、Rubin 天文台人员和 SCOC 成员聚集在一起，为 2024 年 3 月举办的一次研讨会提供 ToO 项目实施建议。确定了四个主要科学案例：引力波多信使天文学、高能中微子、银河超新星以及可能具有潜在危险的小行星撞击体。额外的科学案例在文件中被识别和简要讨论，包括透镜或定位不佳的伽马射线暴和暮光发现。为每个科学案例讨论了触发优先级、自动响应和详细策略。该文件代表了 Rubin ToO 2024 研讨会的成果，并包含了 Rubin 科学合作成员的额外贡献。本文提出的选择标准和策略的实施已在 SCOC 第三阶段建议文件（PSTN-056）中获得认可。虽然 ToO 项目仍在最终确定中，但该文件为使用 Rubin 天文台进行机会目标观测提供了基线计划。
