Description:
This DSA hosts data release 2 of the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey housed at the Wide Field Astronomy Unit at the Univeristy of Edinburgh. This catalog contains WFCAM data primarily originating from the five UKIDSS surveys: Large Area Survey, Galactic Plane Survey, Galactic Clusters Survey, Deep Extragalactic Survey and the Ultra Deep Survey (see the www.ukidss.org for survey descriptions).

The Ultracool Dwarf Companion Catalogue consists of 278 multiple
systems, 32 of which are newly discovered, each with at least one
spectroscopically confirmed Ultracool Dwarf, within a 100 pc
volume-limited sample. This catalogue is compiled using the Gaia
Catalogue of Nearby Stars for stellar primaries and the Gaia Ultracool
Dwarf Sample for low-mass companions and includes 241 doubles, 33
triples, and 4 higher-order systems established from positional,
proper motion, and parallax constraints.
Database that resolves how to access records in problematic datasets. There are several distinct types of table: 1) Planetary observations stored in NASA's PDS and ESA's PSA; 2) Small FOV, pointed solar instruments; 3) Observations in the Global H-alpha Network.

Description:
The VHS will image the entire ~20 000 square degrees of the Southern Sky, with the exception of the areas already covered by the VIKING and VVV surveys, in J and Ks. The resulting data will be about 4 magnitudes deeper than 2MASS and DENIS. The 5000 square degrees covered by the Dark Energy Survey (DES), another imaging survey scheduled to begin in 2010 at the CTIO 4 metre Blanco telescope, will also be observed in H-band. The area around both of the Galactic Caps will be observed in Y- and H- band as well to be combined with the data from the VST ATLAS survey. The main science drivers of the VHS include: examining low mass and nearby stars, studying the merger history of the Galaxy, measuring the properties of Dark Energy through the examination of large-scale structure to a redshift of ~1, and searches for high redshift quasars.
