The current and next generation of spaceborne instruments embarked upon ESA Science missions have moved observational astrophysics into an era of precision astronomy. Instruments are designed to maximize specific, high-precision science returns that push technical capabilities ever closer to their theoretical limits. In parallel, rapid advances in computational methods have unlocked the capability of relying on instrument simulations accounting for complex optical, mechanical, thermal, and other effects to achieve these high precision science cases.The implementation of detailed instrument modelling now spans all phases of a project: translating the high-level science requirements into a defined instrument concept, monitoring the compliance between science performance specifications and requirements during the design and construction phases, optimising science return through calibration, planning for science operations, and analysing astronomical data products.One critical aspect of instrument simulation is the behaviour of the detectors. While many instruments use similar (and in some cases identical) detectors, most instrument teams have implemented the most important basic detector effects for their application into their instrument simulators independentl

执行欧空局科学任务的当前和下一代星载仪器已将观测天体物理学带入了精密天文学时代。仪器旨在最大限度地提高具体、高精度的科学回报，使技术能力更加接近其理论极限。与此同时，计算方法的快速进步释放了依靠仪器模拟来解释复杂的光学、机械、热和其他效应以实现这些高精度科学案例的能力。详细仪器建模的实施现在涵盖了项目的所有阶段：将高水平的科学要求转化为明确的仪器概念，在设计和建造阶段监测科学性能规范和要求之间的符合性，通过校准优化科学回报，规划科学操作，并分析天文数据产品。一个关键方面仪器模拟的行为是探测器。虽然许多仪器使用相似（在某些情况下是相同）的探测器，但大多数仪器团队已经将最重要的基本探测器效果独立地应用到仪器模拟器中。
