1. Kepler Data Search
ID:
ivo://archive.stsci.edu/kepler_ktc
Title:
Kepler Data Search
Short Name:
KTC
Date:

Publisher:
Space Telescope Science Institute Archive
Description:
This interface joins the Kepler Target Catalog (KTC) with other tables to allow users to access the Kepler data archive. Observed Kepler targets are included with their associated data set names. Since most of the Kepler light curve data is still proprietary, public data can be found by searching for release dates earlier than todays date.
2. Kepler Input Catalog
ID:

Title:
Kepler Input Catalog
Short Name:
KIC
Date:

Publisher:
Space Telescope Science Institute Archive
Description:
The KIC, or Kepler Input Catalog, is the primary source of information about objects observed as part of the ground-based Kepler Spectral Classification Program (SCP) in preparation for the selection of Kepler PI and GO targets. The KIC lists objects down to 21st magnitude, but it is not complete to this limit. Light from only about 1/3 of these 14 million objects falls on the Kepler CCD detector. A small number of the KIC objects are calibration objects distributed across the sky.
3. Kepler K2 Data Search Catalog
ID:

Title:
Kepler K2 Data Search Catalog
Short Name:
K2
Date:

Publisher:
Space Telescope Science Institute Archive
Description:
Launched in 2009, the Kepler Mission is surveying a region of our galaxy to determine what fraction of stars in our galaxy have planets and measure the size distribution of those exoplanets. Although Kepler completed its primary mission to determine the fraction of stars that have planets in 2013, it is continuing the search, using a more limited survey mode, under the new name K2. The K2 Data Search Service provides the main catalog for all K2 data.
4. Kepler K2 Ecliptic Plane Input Catalog

Title:
Kepler K2 Ecliptic Plane Input Catalog
Short Name:

Description:
Launched in 2009, the Kepler Mission is surveying a region of our galaxy to determine what fraction of stars in our galaxy have planets and measure the size distribution of those exoplanets. Although Kepler completed its primary mission to determine the fraction of stars that have planets in 2013, it is continuing the search, using a more limited survey mode, under the new name K2. The K2 Ecliptic Plane Input Catalog is the primary source of information about objects observed as potential targets for the K2 mission, as the Kepler Input Catalog was used for the original Kepler mission.
5. Kepler Objects of Interest (KOI)
ID:

Title:
Kepler Objects of Interest (KOI)
Short Name:
KOI CS

Space Telescope Science Institute Archive
Description:
Launched in 2009, the Kepler Mission is surveying a region of our galaxy to determine what fraction of stars in our galaxy have planets and measure the size distribution of those exoplanets. Although Kepler completed its primary mission to determine the fraction of stars that have planets in 2013, it is continuing the search, using a more limited survey mode, under the new name K2. KOI is the Kepler Objects of Interest catalog listing observed Kepler targets which are flagged as potentially having exoplanets but may be false positives caused by other types of transient detection. This catalog is produced by the Kepler project and brought to MAST via NExScI.
6. Kepler Published Planets
ID:

Title:
Kepler Published Planets
Short Name:
K Pub Planets
Date:

Publisher:
Space Telescope Science Institute Archive
Description:
"Kepler Published Planets" is a catalog created from NExScI catalogs listing of published exoplanets found using Kepler. All included metadata is from the published paper.
7. Kepler Target Search
ID:
ivo://archive.stsci.edu/kepler_fov
Title:
Kepler Target Search
Short Name:
KIC_CT
Date:
12 Feb 2020 19:50:32
Publisher:
Space Telescope Science Institute Archive
Description:
The Kepler Target Search interface provides access to a 12.5 million row table created by MAST by joining entries from the Kepler Input catalog (KIC) with the Kepler Characteristics table (CT) and merging these with "associated" entries from the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope (IRT) project, the USNOb catalog, GALEX, the Kepler Isaac Newton Telescope Survey (KIS), and the Everett KPNO (UBV) survey. The search interface allows users to find targets within the Kepler field of view (FOV) and allows searches on magnitudes, colors, and other parameters for both KIC and associated non-KIC targets. This is the recommended interface for potential guest observers to locate possible targets for observation. GO proposers however should check on the target's position by either (or both) looking to one of our posted FFI images and seeing if it is on a chip, and (2) confirming this with the GO office.
