- Description:
- The TESS Input Catalog is a comprehensive collection of 1.73 billion sources on the sky, providing stellar parameters for evaluation of potential planetary transit signals. It combines sources from many other catalogs, including 2MASS, LAMOST, SuperBlink, HSOY, RAVE, APOGEE, UCAC, KIC, EPIC, Tycho-2, APASS, AllWISE, SDSS, Gaia DR2, and Hipparcos. It was constructed for the TESS mission to serve as a source for selecting targets to observe with the TESS two-minute cadence, and to provide stellar parameter information for evaluating the properties of transit candidates. MAST catalog holdings are available via Cone Search endpoints. All available missions are listed at http://archive.stsci.edu/vo/mast_services.html. This service provides access to the TESS input catalog (TIC), currently version 8.2.

- Description:
- We search for signs of falling evaporating bodies (FEBs, also known as exocomets) in photometric time series obtained for {beta} Pictoris after fitting and removing its {delta} Scuti-type pulsation frequencies. Using photometric data obtained by the TESS satellite we determined the pulsational properties of the exoplanet host star {beta} Pictoris through frequency analysis. We then pre-whitened the 54 identified {delta} Scuti p-modes and investigated the residual photometric time series for the presence of FEBs. We identify three distinct dipping events in the light curve of {beta} Pictoris over a 105-day period. These dips have depths from 0.5 to 2-millimagnitudes and durations of up to 2-days for the largest dip. These dips are asymmetric in nature and are consistent with a model of an evaporating comet with an extended tail crossing the disc of the star. We present the first broadband detections of exocomets crossing the disc of {beta} Pictoris, complementing the predictions made 20 years earlier by Lecavelier Des Etangs et al. (1999A&A...343..916L). No periodic transits are seen in this time series. These observations confirm the spectroscopic detection of exocomets in calcium H and K lines that have been seen in high resolution spectroscopy.

- Description:
- All MAST catalog holdings are available via Cone Search endpoints. This service provides access to the ATLAS All-Sky Stellar Reference Catalog. The Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) observes most of the sky every night in search of dangerous asteroids. Its data are also used to search for photometric variability, where sensitivity to variability is limited by photometric accuracy. Since each exposure spans 7.6 deg corner to corner, variations in atmospheric transparency in excess of 0.01 mag are common, and 0.01 mag photometry cannot be achieved by using a constant flat field calibration image. We therefore have assembled an all-sky reference catalog of approximately one billion stars to m~19 from a variety of sources to calibrate each exposure's astrometry and photometry. Gaia DR2 is the source of astrometry for this ATLAS Refcat2. The sources of g, r, i, z photometry include Pan-STARRS DR1, the ATLAS Pathfinder photometry project, ATLAS re-flattened APASS data, SkyMapper DR1, APASS DR9, the Tycho-2 catalog, and the Yale Bright Star Catalog. We have attempted to make this catalog at least 99% complete to m less than 19, including the brightest stars in the sky. We believe that the systematic errors are no larger than 5 millimag RMS, although errors are as large as 20 millimag in small patches near the galactic plane.

- Description:
- The Chandra X-Ray Observatory (CXO) is a high-resolution (< 0.5 arcsecond) X-ray telescope with a suite of advanced imaging and spectroscopic instruments. The Observatory was successfully launched by NASA's Space Shuttle Columbia on July 23, 1999. Chandra was designed to provide order-of-magnitude advances over previous X-ray astronomy missions with regards to spatial and spectral resolution. The High Resolution Mirror Assembly (HRMA) produces images with a half-power diameter (HPD) of the point spread function (PSF) of < 0.5 arcsec. Chandra has two focal plane science instruments, i) The Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS), and ii) The High Resolution Camera (HRC). ACIS is comprised of two CCD arrays, a 4-chip array, ACIS-I ; and a 6-chip array, ACIS-S . ACIS-I was designed for CCD imaging and spectrometry; ACIS-S can be used both for CCD imaging spectrometry and also for high-resolution spectroscopy in conjunction with the HETG grating. A mix of ACIS-S and ACIS-I chips (up to six) may be used for imaging observations. The HRC is comprised of two microchannel plate (MCP ) imaging detectors: the HRC-I designed for wide-field imaging; and, HRC-S designed to serve as a readout for the LETG . The grating systems consist of the Low Energy Transmission Grating (LETG) and the High Energy Transmission Grating (HETG). The HETG , when operated with the HRMA and the ACIS-S , forms the High-Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (HETGS ) for high resolution spectroscopy . The HETGS achieves resolving power up to 1000 in the band between 0.4 keV and 10.0 keV. The LETG when operated with the HRC-S , forms the Low Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (LETGS ). The LETGS provides the highest spectral resolution on Chandra at low (0.08 - 0.2 keV) energies. This catalogue is a copy of the Chandra Observation Catalog from the Chandra Data Archive (CDA) which is part of the Chandra X-Ray Observatory Science Center (CXC) which is operated for NASA by the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory.

- Description:
- The Einstein Observatory is the second of NASA's three High Energy Astrophysical Observatories, HEAO-2, renamed Einstein after launch, and was the first fully imaging X-ray telescope put into space. It observed in the energy range 0.2-20keV. It was launched on 12 November 1978, and remained in operation until April 1981. The High Resolution Imager (HRI) is one fo the four instruments aboard the Einstein Observatory, operating in the 0.2-3.0keV energy range, with a spatial resolution of a few arcseconds, and a field of view of 25arcmin. Field and source parameters observed with this instrument are given here.

- Description:
- Funded by NASA as part of its Origins program, FUSE was developed in collaboration with the space agencies of Canada and France, and is being operated for NASA by the Johns Hopkins University. FUSE was launched into orbit aboard a Delta II rocket on June 24, 1999 for at least three years of operations. FUSE (Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer) provides spectra in the far ultraviolet portion of the electromagnetic spectrum (range 905-1180 Angstroems, or 90.5-118nm) with a high resolution of about 20000 (one point each 5pm).

- Description:
- This database contains a log of the Gemini Telescope observations since 2001, managed by the Canadian Astronomical Data Center (CADC). The data are regularly updated (see the date of the last version at the end of this file). The Gemini Observatory consists of twin 8.1-meter diameter optical/infrared telescopes located on two of the best observing sites on the planet. From their locations on mountains in Hawai'i and Chile, Gemini Observatory's telescopes can collectively access the entire sky. Gemini is operated by a partnership of five countries including the United States, Canada, Brazil, Argentina and Chile. Any astronomer in these countries can apply for time on Gemini, which is allocated in proportion to each partner's financial stake.

- Description:
- The Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope HUT was one of three ultraviolet instruments of the ASTRO-1 mission flown on the space shuttle Columbia during 2-10 December 1990. 106 spectrophotometric observations of 77 targets were obtained in the far-UV (i.e., 912-1850{AA}) at a resolution of ~3{AA}. A few sources were observed in the 415-912{AA} region with a 1.5{AA} resolution. The same three instruments were later flown on the space shuttle Endeavour from 3-17 March 1995 as part of the ASTRO-2 mission. During the longer ASTRO-2 mission, 385 observations of 265 targets were obtained.

- Description:
- UIT was one of three ultraviolet telescopes on the ASTRO-1 mission flown on the space shuttle Columbia during 2-10 December 1990. The same three instruments were later flown on the space shuttle Endeavour during 3-17 March 1995, as part of the ASTRO-2 mission. Exposures were obtained on 70-mm photographic film in the 1200-3300 Angstrom range using broadband filters and later digitized using a Perkin-Elmer microdensitometer. Image resolution was 3 arcseconds over a 40 minute field of view. Overall, UIT-1 obtained 821 exposures of 66 targets, and UIT-2 obtained 758 images of 193 targets.
