Complete Asteroid Data from the Minor Planet Center (MPC),
updated once per month. The MPC operates at the Smithsonian Astrophysical
Observatory under the auspices of Division III of the International
Astronomical Union (IAU).
The MPC Orbit database contains orbital elements of minor
planets that have been published in the Minor Planet Circulars,
the Minor Planet Orbit Supplement and the Minor Planet
Electronic Circulars.
Multi-instrument, multi-wavelength study of high energy sources with

Description:
This tutorial demonstrates how to use several standard tools of the
Virtual Observatory (VO) for data mining and multiple waveband data
analysis. The step-by-step application below focuses on towards
applications in the gamma-ray and high energy domain, but also
involves observational data from other wavebands.
MWSC presents a list of 3006 Milky Way Stellar Clusters (MWSC), found
in the 2MAst (2MASS with Astrometry) catalogue. The target list was
compiled on the basis of present-day lists of open, globular and
candidate clusters. For confirmed clusters we determined a homogeneous
set of astrophysical parameters such as membership, angular radii of
the main morphological parts, mean cluster proper motions, distances,
reddenings, ages, tidal parameters, and sometimes radial velocities.
MWSC-e14a ("MWSC extension 2014a") is a catalogue of
139 new open clusters at high Galactic latitudes
(\|b\|>20 deg) including lists of candidate members. It extends the
Kharchenko et al. 'Catalog of Milky Way Star Clusters'.
The target list was compiled as density enhancements found in the 2MASS
point source catalogue. For confirmed clusters we determined a homogeneous
set of astrophysical parameters such as membership, angular radii of the
main morphological parts, proper motion, distance, reddening, age, and
tidal parameters.

NMDB: Real-time Database for High Resolution Neutron Monitor
Measurements

Description:
NMDB serves the data of roughly 50 stations across the globe
measuring ground-based cosmic ray intensities at minute cadence.
Cosmic rays are detected for primary particles of energies up to 15
GeV depending on station magnetic latitude.
List of Observatory Codes assigned by the Minor Planet Center (MPC).
The codes are used in cataloguing astrometric observations of small
bodies in the solar system. A code is unique for a certain location
and consists of three digits or one letter and two digits.
In this representation, we give the observatory code, the geocentric
coordinates, and the observatory designation.
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.
