OpenNGC is a database containing positions and main data of NGC (New
General Catalogue) and IC (Index Catalogue) objects. It has been built
by merging data from NED, HyperLEDA, SIMBAD, and several databases
available at HEASARC.
In this VO publication, we have changed most of the column names,
mostly to make them work as ADQL column names without resorting to
delimited identifiers. The mapping should be obvious.
An optical polarimetric catalog for the Small Magelanic Cloud (SMC)
is presented. It gives intrinsic and observed polarizations in the
V-band for a total of 7207 stars located in the Northeast and Wing
sections of the SMC and part of the Magellanic Bridge.
These spectra are optical follow-up observations of the
X-ray sources detected in the 942 ks exposure of the
Chandra Deep Field-South (CDFS) using FORS.

Description:
This service hosts the public releases of the ATLAS Survey housed at the Wide Field Astronomy Unit at the Univeristy of Edinburgh, as well as a number of other external datasets for which WFAU has neighbour tables, that can be cross matched with ATLAS. The initial aim of ATLAS is to survey 4500 deg2 of the Southern Sky at high galactic latitudes to comparable depths to the SDSS in the North. The VST ATLAS will be the first step towards a panoramic digital survey of the Southern Sky in the optical bands. The ATLAS will complement the proposed VISTA Hemisphere Survey in the South.
