Planetary Data System
Description:
Time-averaged spacecraft position and calibrated 3-axis magnetic
field samples in Venus Solar Orbital (VSO) coordinates. The data are
tagged with latency corrected UTC and MET time stamps at the center of
each interval. The VSO RDR is derived from the Science CDR for this
coordinate system with time averages computed within 1, 5, 10, and 60
s intervals.
TITAN is a computer program for calculating the interactions of a dilute plane-parallel medium with electromagnetic radiation. It includes all atomic processes: absorption, recombination, diffusion, excitation, deexcitation of atoms and ions, heating and cooling of the gas, and it solves the radiation transfer, in order to obtain the spectra reemitted by the medium. It handles plan parallel slabs in non LTE steady state, for various physical conditions and various illuminations, valid in many astrophysical situations. It is specifically designed for warm-hot (8000 to 10**8 K) and thick media (till an electron scattering optical depth of several tens) emitting and absorbing in the X-ray range (density from 10**5 to 10**14 cm-3). It computes the physical parameters, ionisation degrees, temperature, density, and the spectrum of the radiated light in each point of the slab, by solving simultaneously the ionisation equations, the equations of statistical equilibrium, the thermal equations and the radiation transfer, using iteration processes.
Decametric radio observation from Nancay decameter array. The Nancay Decameter Array (NDA) at the Station de Radioastronomie de Nancay (SRN) is a phased array of 144 "Teepee" helicoidal antenna, half of which being Right Handed (RH) polarized and the other half being Left Handed (LH) polarized. Four receivers are currently connected to the NDA, sampling data in spectral ranges within 5 to 80 MHz.
United States Naval Observatory, Flagstaff Station
Description:
The U.S. Naval Observatory (USNO) announces the release of the first version of the Naval Observatory Merged Astrometric Dataset (NOMAD). The 100 GB dataset contains astrometric and photometric data for over 1 billion stars derived from the Hipparcos, Tycho-2, UCAC2, and USNO-B catalogs for astrometry and optical photometry, supplemented by 2MASS near-infrared photometry. For each unique star the "best" astrometric and photometric data are chosen from the source catalogs and merged into a single dataset. A sequence of priorities is followed and NOMAD contains flags to identify the source catalogs and gives cross-reference identifications. This first release of NOMAD is not a compiled catalog; that is, if a star is identified in more than 1 of the above mentioned catalogs, only 1 catalog entry is chosen. Thus the local and global systematic errors of the various source catalogs will be present in this version of NOMAD. All source catalogs astrometric data are on the International Celestial Reference System within the limitations of the source catalogs.

Description:
Low-resolution spectra like those resulting from objective prism
observations or the RP/BP instrument on board of the Gaia astrometry
satellite enable a wealth of interesting science. This use case
investigates one use leading up to combining many VO resources: The
identification of misclassified objects from reference databases.
