- 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.

- 2MASS Photometric Redshift catalogue (2MPZ)
- Date:
- 23 Jan 2024 09:45:12
- Publisher:
- WFAU, Institute for Astronomy, University of Edinburgh
- Description:
- The 2MASS Photometric Redshift catalogue (2MPZ) is constructed by cross-matching 2MASS XSC, WISE and SuperCOSMOS all-sky samples and employing the artificial neural network approach (the ANNz algorithm, Collister & Lahav 2004), trained on several redshift surveys (2MRS, SDSS, 6dFGS, 2dFGRS and ZCAT). The derived photometric redshifts have errors nearly independent of distance, with an all-sky accuracy of Ïz = 0.015, and a very small percentage of outliers. These redshift estimates have a typical precision of 12% for all the 2MASS XSC galaxies that lack spectroscopy. The resulting 2MPZ sample contains almost 1 million galaxies with a median redshift of z=0.07. This catalogue is described in Bilicki et al. 2014, ApJS, 210, 9.

- Publisher:
- WFAU, Institute for Astronomy, University of Edinburgh
- Description:
- Small subset of the SuperCOSMOS Science Archive, useful for testing queries. The SuperCOSMOS data held in the SSA primarily originate from scans of Palomar and UK Schmidt blue, red and near-IR southern sky surveys. The ESO Schmidt R (dec < -17.5) and Palomar POSS-I E (dec > -17.5) surveys have also been scanned and provide a 1st epoch red measurement. Further details on the surveys, the scanning process and the raw parameters extracted can be found on the further information link. The SSA is housed in a relational database running on Microsoft SQL Server 2000. Data are stored in tables which are inter-linked via reference ID numbers. In addition to the astronomical object catalogues these tables also contain information on the plates that were scanned, survey field centres and calibration coefficients. Most user science queries will only need to access the SOURCE table or to a lesser extent the DETECTION table.

- Description:
- The Rontgen Satellite Archive is an implementation of the ROSAT All-Sky Survey Bright Source Catalogue (RASS-BSC, revision 1RXS) and the ROSAT All-Sky Survey Faint Source Catalogue (RASS-FSC, revision 1RXS). The RASS-BSC is derived from the all-sky survey performed during the first half year of the ROSAT mission in 1990/91. 18,811 sources are catalogued, with a limiting ROSAT PSPC countrate of 0.05 cts/s in the 0.1-2.4 keV energy band. The sources have a detection likelihood of at least 15 and contain at least 15 source photons. At a brightness limit of 0.1 cts/s (8,547 sources) the catalogue represents a sky coverage of 92%. The typical positional accuracy is 30 arcsec. The RASS-FSC is derived from the all-sky survey performed during the ROSAT mission in the energy band 0.1- 2.4 keV. 105,924 sources are catalogued and represent the faint extension to the RASS bright source catalogue. The sources have a detection likelihood of at least 7 and contain at least 6 source photons. (The likelihood of source detection is defined as L =-ln (1-P) , with P = probability of source detection).

- Publisher:
- WFAU, Institute for Astronomy, University of Edinburgh
- Description:
- The SuperCOSMOS data held in the SSA primarily originate from scans of Palomar and UK Schmidt blue, red and near-IR southern sky surveys. The ESO Schmidt R (dec < -17.5) and Palomar POSS-I E (dec > -17.5) surveys have also been scanned and provide a 1st epoch red measurement. Further details on the surveys, the scanning process and the raw parameters extracted can be found on the further information link. The SSA is housed in a relational database running on Microsoft SQL Server 2000. Data are stored in tables which are inter-linked via reference ID numbers. In addition to the astronomical object catalogues these tables also contain information on the plates that were scanned, survey field centres and calibration coefficients. Most user science queries will only need to access the SOURCE table or to a lesser extent the DETECTION table.

- WFAU, Institute for Astronomy, University of Edinburgh
- Description:
- The Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) will provide a uniform survey of the entire sky at three near-infrared wavebands: J(lambdaeff = 1.25 micrometers), H(lambdaeff = 1.65 micrometers), and Ks(lambdaeff = 2.16 micrometers). A major goal of the survey is to probe large scale structures in the Milky Way and in the Local Universe, exploiting the relatively high transparency of the interstellar medium in the near-infrared, and the high near-infrared luminosities of evolved low- and intermediate-mass stars.Home page at http://pegasus.phast.umass.edu/

- Date:

- Publisher:
- WFAU, Institute for Astronomy, University of Edinburgh
- Description:
- The VHS will image the entire ~20 000 square degrees of the Southern Sky, with the exception of the areas already covered by the VIKING and VVV surveys, in J and Ks. The resulting data will be about 4 magnitudes deeper than 2MASS and DENIS. The 5000 square degrees covered by the Dark Energy Survey (DES), another imaging survey scheduled to begin in 2010 at the CTIO 4 metre Blanco telescope, will also be observed in H-band. The area around both of the Galactic Caps will be observed in Y- and H- band as well to be combined with the data from the VST ATLAS survey. The main science drivers of the VHS include: examining low mass and nearby stars, studying the merger history of the Galaxy, measuring the properties of Dark Energy through the examination of large-scale structure to a redshift of ~1, and searches for high redshift quasars.

- Publisher:
- WFAU, Institute for Astronomy, University of Edinburgh
- Description:
- The VIDEO survey is a 30 sq. degree, Z,Y,J,H,K survey that is specifically designed to enable exploration of the main issues in observational cosmology. It allows galaxy and cluster/structure evolution to be traced as a function of both epoch and environment from the present day out to z=4 and AGN/QSO evolution up to and into the epoch of reionization at z > 6. The multi-band nature of the survey ensures many key science drivers can be tackled using the survey alone, without recourse to data from other wavebands.

- Description:
- The VMC survey aims to obtain YJKs band photometry across the system down to Ks=20.3 at S/N=10. This sensitivity corresponds to the bottom of the red giant branch field stellar population and allows us to determine the global spatially resolved star formation history with unprecedented quality and to construct a three-dimensional map of the system. A wide-area encompassing the D25 as well as major features delineated by the distribution of stars and HI gas, will both trace the structure of the galaxies and signatures of past and present interactions. Contemporary optical and kinematic observations of comparable sensitivity will provide the community with a superior database for future studies of the system and will give us an excellent insight as to what has happened elsewhere in the Universe.

- Description:
- NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE; Wright et al. 2010) mapped the sky at 3.4, 4.6, 12, and 22 μm (W1, W2, W3, W4) in 2010 with an angular resolution of 6.1", 6.4", 6.5", & 12.0" in the four bands. WISE achieved 5Ï? point source sensitivities better than 0.08, 0.11, 1 and 6 mJy in unconfused regions on the ecliptic in the four bands. Sensitivity improves toward the ecliptic poles due to denser coverage and lower zodiacal background.

- Description:
- XMM is the second comprehensive catalogue of serendipitous X-ray sources from the European Space Agency's (ESA) XMM-Newton observatory. The 2XMM catalogue is the largest X-ray source catalogue ever produced, containing almost twice as many discrete sources as either the ROSAT survey or pointed catalogues. 2XMM complements deeper Chandra and XMM-Newton small area surveys, probing a much larger sky area.

- Description:
- The XMM-OM Serendipitous Ultra-violet Source Survey (SUSS) is a catalog of UV sources detected serendipitously by the Optical Monitor (OM) on-board the European Space Agency's (ESA's) XMM-Newton observatory. It has been created at the University College London's (UCL's) Mullard Space Science Laboratory (MSSL) on behalf of ESA and is a partner resource to the 2XMM serendipitous X-ray source catalogue. The catalog contains source detections drawn from 2,417 XMM-OM observations in up to three broad band UV filters made between 2000 February 24 and 2007 March 29. All datasets included were publicly available by 2007 May 01 but note that, due to screening criteria, not all public observations are included in this catalog. Taking account of substantial overlaps between observations, the net sky area covered independently is 29 - 54 square degreees, depending on UV filter. The primary content of the catalog is filter-dependent source positions and magnitudes, and these are accompanied by profile diagnostics and variability statistics. The XMM-OM SUSS catalog contains 753,578 UV source detections above a signal-to-noise threshold limit of 3-sigma which relate to 624,049 unique objects. A significant fraction of sources (12% - UVW2, 11% - UVM2, 11.% - UVW1) are visited more than once during XMM operation, and a large fraction of sources (38% - UVW2, 23% - UVM2, 22% - UVW1) are observed more than once per filter during an individual visit. UVW2, UVM2 and UVW1 refer to the filter bandpasses defined in the Source Properties: Filter Set section of the MSSL documentation for this catalog: <a href="http://www.mssl.ucl.ac.uk/~mds/XMM-OM-SUSS/SourcePropertiesFilters.shtml">http://www.mssl.ucl.ac.uk/~mds/XMM-OM-SUSS/SourcePropertiesFilters.shtml</a>. Consequently, the scope for science based on temporal source variability on timescales of hours to years is broad. The positional accuracy of the catalog detections is typically 1.0 arcsec (1-sigma confidence radius) with a median positional error of 0.67 arcsec. The median AB magnitude of the catalog detections in the three UV bands is 19.56 (UVW2), 20.23 (UVM2) and 20.69 (UVW1). 20% of sources have AB magnitudes fainter than 20.28 (UVW2), 20.97 (UVM2) and 21.54 (UVW1). As part of quality evaluation for the catalog, each field has been tested for astrometric accuracy and visually screened for cosmetic problems, compromising aspect anomalies, stray light, large extended sources and telemetry dropouts. Observations affected by these issues (11.2%) have been removed from the catalog sample. Furthermore, 2% of all observations were selected at random where each source in this sample was tested for falsehood, spuriousness and accuracy of quality flagging. The results of this detailed screening are included in the full documentation. The processing used to generate the catalog is based on the SAS8.0 pipeline developed for the pipeline reduction of all XMM observations. This version includes a number of significant improvements over the previous data processing system (as used by the SSC in routine processing of XMM-Newton data on behalf of ESA). These improvements include a more robust detection scheme for sources close to the limit of sky background, refined quality flagging and a higher success rate (90%) for refined aspect corrections.
