Information & On-Line Data in Astronomy
Author: D EgretPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401103976
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
The ability of storing, managing, and giving access to the huge quantity of data collected by astronomical observatories is one of the major challenges of modern astronomy. At the same time, the growing complexity of data systems implies a change of concepts: the scientist has to manipulate data as well as information. Recent developments of the `WorldWideWeb' bring interesting answers to these problems. The book presents a wide selection of databases, archives, data centers, and information systems. Clear and up-to-date descriptions are included, together with their scientific context and motivations. Audience: This volume provides an essential tool for astronomers, librarians, data specialists and computer engineers.

The 2007 ESO Instrument Calibration Workshop
Author: Andreas KauferPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3540769633
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 594
Book Description
The 2007 ESO Instrument Calibration workshop brought together more than 120 participants with the objective to a) foster the sharing of information, experience and techniques between observers, instrument developers and instrument operation teams, b) review the actual precision and limitations of the applied instrument calibration plans, and c) collect the current and future requirements by the ESO users. These present proceedings include the majority of the workshop’s contributions and document the status quo of instrument calibration at ESO in large detail. Topics covered are: Optical Spectro-Imagers, Optical Multi-Object Spectrographs, NIR and MIR Spectro-Imagers, High-Resolution Spectrographs, Integral Field Spectrographs, Adaptive Optics Instruments, Polarimetric Instruments, Wide Field Imagers, Interferometric Instruments as well as other crucial aspects such as data flow, quality control, data reduction software and atmospheric effects. It was stated in the workshop that “calibration is a life-long learning process”'. In this sense, this book will be a reference point for all future efforts to improve instrument calibration procedures in astronomy.
International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) Ultraviolet Spectral Atlas of Selected Astronomical Objects
Author: Chi-Chao WuPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : HR diagrams
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
A quick reference for the ultraviolet spectra of many categories of astronomical objects. Shows reflected sunlight from the Moon, planets, and asteroids, and emission from comets. Contains the spectra for: pre-main sequence stars, chemically peculiar stars, pulsating variables, subluminous stars, and Wolf-Rayet stars. Presents phenomena such as the chromospheric and transition region emissions from late-type stars; composite spectra of stars, gas streams, accretion disks and gas envelopes of binary systems; the behavior of gas ejecta shortly after the outburst of novac and supernovac; and the H II regions, planetary nebulae, and supernova remnants. Population 2 stars, globular clusters, and luminous stars in the Magellanic Clouds, M31, and M33, are included. Finally, gives the ultraviolet spectra of galaxies of different Hubble types and of active galaxies.
