- Publisher:
- WFAU, Institute for Astronomy, University of Edinburgh
- Description:
- This DSA hosts data release 1 of the ATLAS Survey housed at the Wide Field Astronomy Unit at the Univeristy of Edinburgh. 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.

- Title:
- Chandra Source Catalog
- Short Name:
- CSC
- Date:
- 24 Oct 2019
- Publisher:
- Chandra X-ray Observatory
- Description:
- The Chandra X-ray Observatory is the U.S. follow-on to the Einstein Observatory and one of NASA"s Great Observatories. Chandra was formerly known as AXAF, the Advanced X-ray Astrophysics Facility, but renamed by NASA in December, 1998. Originally three instruments and a high-resolution mirror carried in one spacecraft, the project was reworked in 1992 and 1993. The Chandra spacecraft carries a high resolution mirror, two imaging detectors, and two sets of transmission gratings. Important Chandra features are: an order of magnitude improvement in spatial resolution, good sensitivity from 0.1 to 10 keV, and the capability for high spectral resolution observations over most of this range. The Chandra Source Catalog (CSC) includes information about X-ray sources detected in observations obtained using the Chandra X-ray Observatory. Release 2.0 of the catalog includes 317,167 point, compact, and extended sources detected in ACIS and HRC-I imaging observations released publicly prior to the end of 2014. Observed source positions and multi-band count rates are reported, as well as numerous derived spatial, photometric, spectral, and temporal calibrated source properties that may be compared with data obtained by other telescopes. Each record includes the best estimates of the properties of a source based on data extracted from all observations in which the source was detected. The Chandra Source Catalog is extracted from the CXC"s Chandra Data Archive (CDA). The CXC should be acknowledged as the source of Chandra data. For detailed information on the Chandra Observatory and datasets see: http://cxc.harvard.edu/ for general Chandra information; http://cxc.harvard.edu/cda/ for the Chandra Data Archive; http://cxc.harvard.edu/csc/ for Chandra Source Catalog information.

The Chandra Source Catalog (CSC) includes information about X-ray sources detected in observations obtained using the Chandra X-ray Observatory. Release 1.1 of the catalog includes about 138,000 point and compact sources with observed spatial extents less than ~30 arcsec detected in a subset of ACIS and HRC-I imaging observations released publicly prior to the end of 2009. Observed source positions and multi-band count rates are reported, as well as numerous derived spatial, photometric, spectral, and temporal calibrated source properties that may be compared with data obtained by other telescopes. Each record includes the best estimates of the properties of a source based on data extracted from all observations in which the source was detected.

- Description:
- Catalog of astrometry and photometry of detected point sources in the Far red optical (0.82-micron I-band) and near-infrared (1.25-micron J- and 2.15-micron Ks bands). ~16,700 square degrees of the southern sky

- 6dF Galaxy Survey Data Release 2
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- WFAU, Institute for Astronomy, University of Edinburgh
- Description:
- The 6dF Galaxy Survey (6dFGS) aims to measure the redshifts of around 150 000 galaxies, and the peculiar velocities of a 15 000-member subsample, over almost the entire southern sky. The table called Spectra contains the redshifts and qualities of all the observations. When complete, it will be the largest redshift survey of the nearby Universe, reaching out to about z ~ 0.15, and more than an order of magnitude larger than any peculiar velocity survey to date. The targets are all galaxies brighter than K tot = 12.75 in the 2MASS Extended Source Catalog (XSC), supplemented by 2MASS and SuperCOSMOS galaxies that complete the sample to limits of (H, J , r F, bJ) = (13.05, 13.75, 15.6, 16.75).
