The Chandra X-ray Observatory is the U.S. follow-on to the Einstein Observatory. 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.
Virtual Observatory of China (China-VO) is a consortium initiated by National Astronomical Observatory of China (NAOC) and Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) project.
This catalog includes the CoRoT targets around which the presence of an exoplanet was confirmed and published. It does not include the more numerous planet candidates.
This catalog includes CoRoT targets from the exoplanet channel which were identified as possible red giants and actually presents acoustic oscillations of solar-like type, as published by Hekker et al. (A&A, 2009, vol. 506, p. 465).
All data for the Herschel SPIRE and PACS guaranted time program on Interstellar Medium (SAG-4) and other public data processed at IDOC. All data have been reprocessed at IDOC using advanded reprocessing pipeline.
