AAVSO Photometric All-Sky Survey (APASS), underway since 2010,
covers the entire sky from 7.5 < V < 16.5 magnitude, and in the BVugrizY
bandpasses. A northern and a southern site are used, each with twin ASA
20cm astrographs and Apogee Aspen CG16m cameras, covering 2.9x2.9 square
degrees with 2.6arcsec pixels. Landolt and SDSS standards are used for
all-sky solutions, with typical 0.02mag calibration errors on the bright
end.
Data Release 10 is a complete reprocessing of all 500K images taken with
the system, including hundreds of nights not part of DR9. Sextractor is
used for star finding and centroiding; DAOPHOT is used for aperture
photometry; the astrometry.net plate-solving library is used for basic
astrometry, supplanted with more precise WCS that utilizes knowledge of the
optical train distortions. With these changes, DR10 includes many more
stars than prior releases.

Description:
This is a catalog of 5437 morphologically classified sources in the
direction of the Perseus galaxy cluster core, among them 496
early-type low-mass galaxy candidates. The catalog is primarily based
on V-band imaging data acquired with the William Herschel Telescope.
Additionally, we used archival Subaru multiband imaging data in order
to measure aperture colors and to perform a morphological
classification. The catalog reaches its 50 per cent completeness limit
at an absolute V-band luminosity of -12 mag and a V-band surface
brightness of 26 mag arcsec^-2 .
In addition to the published table, this service also contains cutout
images of the objects investigated.

Description:
The ANTARES neutrino telescope aims for the identification of
neutrinos from cosmic accelerators. The good visibility towards the
Southern sky for neutrino energies below 100 TeV and the good angular
resolution for reconstructed events make the telescope excellent to
test for the presence of point-like sources, especially of Galactic
origin. The data set corresponds to the track sample (muon neutrino
candidates) of a study meant to search for a point sources with data
collected from January 2007 to December 2017 by the ANTARES neutrino
telescope.

Extracted sources from the Bochum Galactic Disk Survey. We provide
mean photometry in U, B, V, z, r, and i bands. Note that sources in
different bands are not matched. Also, sources sitting in the regions
imaged in multiple fields have not been matched even within one band.
In i and r, BGDS light curves are available. See related services for
details.
The Bochum Galactic Disk Survey is an ongoing project to monitor the
stellar content of the Galactic disk in a 6 degree wide stripe
centered on the Galactic plane. The data has been recorded since
mid-2010 in Sloan r and i simultaneously with the RoBoTT Telecsope at
the Universitaetssternwarte Bochum near Cerro Armazones in the Chilean
Atacama desert. It contains measurements of about 2x10^7 stars over
more than seven years. Additionally, intermittent measurements in
Johnson UVB and Sloan z have been recorded as well.
This service exposes the light curves of stars produced by the Bochum
Galactic Disk Survey; several million light curves are provided in the
SDSS i and r bands. The lightcurves are published per-band and are
also available through obscore.
Coordinated microlensing survey observations with Kepler K2/C9 using
VST
Short Name:
k2c9vst ssap

Publisher:
The GAVO DC team
Description:
The Kepler satellite has observed the Galactic center in a campaign
lasting from April until the end of June 2016 (K2/C9). The main
objective of the 99 hours for the microlensing program 097.C-0261(A)
using the ESO VLT Survey Telescope (VST) was to monitor the superstamp
(i.e., the actually downloaded region of K2/C9) in service mode for
improving the event coverage and securing some color-information. Due
to weather conditions, the majority of images were taken in the red
band. These are part of the present release.
The exact pointing strategy was adjusted to cover the superstamp with
6 pointings and to contain as many microlensing events from earlier
seasons as possible. In addition, a two-point dither was requested to
reduce the impact of bad pixels and detector gaps. Consequently, some
events were getting more coverage and have been observed with
different CCDs. The large footprint of roughly 1 square degree and the
complementary weather conditions at Cerro Paranal have lead to the
coverage of 147 events (this resource's events table), but ~60 of
those were already at baseline.
This is a deep optical mosaic of the Fornax cluster’s core, covering
1.6 square degrees. The data were acquired with ESO/MPG 2.2m/WFI,
using a transparent filter that nearly equals the no-filter throughput
and thus provides a high signal-to-noise ratio. Based on an
approximate conversion to V-band magnitudes, the unbinned and binned
mosaics (0.24 and 0.71 arcsec/pixel) reach a median depth of 26.6 and
27.8 mag/sq.arcsec, respectively.

Description:
This catalogue provides distances estimates (and uncertainties therein)
for 1.33 billion stars over the whole sky brighter than about G=20.7.
These have been estimated using the parallaxes (and their uncertainties)
from Gaia DR2. A Bayesian procedure was used involving a prior
with a single parameter L(l,b), which varies smoothly with Galactic
longitude and latitude according to a Galaxy model. The posterior is
summarized with a point estimate (usually the mode) and a confidence
interval (usually the 68% highest density interval). The estimation
procedure is described in detail in the `accompanying paper`_,
which also analyses the catalogue content.

This service returns the most important Gaia DR3 gaia_source columns
together with robust geometric and photogeometric distances for the
~1.47 billion objects in Bailer-Jones et al's distance catalogue.
The release consists of event lists and instrument response functions
for observations of various well-known gamma-ray sources (the Crab
nebula, PKS 2155-304, MSH 15-52, RX J1713.7-3946) as well as
observations of empty fields for background modeling.
The LIFE Target Star Database contains information useful
for the planned `LIFE mission`_ (mid-ir, nulling
interferometer in space). It characterizes possible
target systems including information about stellar,
planetary and disk properties. The data itself is mainly
a collection from different other catalogs.
Note that LIFE's target database is living

In this data release from the ongoing LOw-Frequency ARray (LOFAR)
Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) we present 120-168 MHz images covering
27% of the northern sky. Our coverage is split into two regions
centred at approximately 12h45m +44°30′ and 1h00m +28°00′ and spanning
4178 and 1457 square degrees respectively. The images were derived
from 3,451 hrs (7.6 PB) of LOFAR High Band Antenna data which were
corrected for the direction-independent instrumental properties as
well as direction-dependent ionospheric distortions during extensive,
but fully automated, data processing. A catalogue of 4,395,448 radio
sources is derived from our total intensity (Stokes I) maps, where the
majority of these have never been detected at radio wavelengths
before. At 6′′ resolution, our full bandwidth Stokes I continuum maps
with a central frequency of 144 MHz have: a median rms sensitivity of
83 μ Jy/beam; a flux density scale accuracy of approximately 10%; an
astrometric accuracy of 0.2′′; and we estimate the point-source
completeness to be 90% at a peak brightness of 0.8 mJy/beam. By
creating three 16 MHz bandwidth images across the band we are able to
measure the in-band spectral index of many sources, albeit the error
on the derived spectral index is > ±0.2 which is a consequence of our
flux-density scale accuracy and small fractional bandwidth. Our
circular polarisation (Stokes V) 20′′ resolution 120-168 MHz continuum
images have a median rms sensitivity of 95 μ Jy/beam, and we estimate
a Stokes I to Stokes V leakage of 0.056%. Our linear polarisation
(Stokes Q and Stokes U) image cubes consist of 480 97.6 kHz wide
planes and have a median rms sensitivity per plane of 10.8mJy/beam at
4′ and 2.2mJy/beam at 20′′; we estimate the Stokes I to Stokes Q/U
leakage to be approximately 0.2%. Here we characterise and publicly
release our Stokes I, Q, U and V images in addition to the calibrated
uv-data to facilitate the thorough scientific exploitation of this
unique dataset. This service queries the Stokes I continuum mosaic
gaussian component catalogue.
