Parametrization and Classification of 20 Billion LSST Objects: Lessons from SDSS
Z. Ivezic, T. Axelrod, A. C. Becker
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will be a large, wide-field ground-based system designed to obtain, starting in 2015, multiple images of the sky that is visible from Cer…
LSST: from Science Drivers to Reference Design and Anticipated Data Products
Željko Ivezić, Steven M. Kahn, J. Anthony Tyson +310
(Abridged) We describe here the most ambitious survey currently planned in the optical, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). A vast array of science will be enabled by a sin…
Trigonometric Parallaxes of Central Stars of Planetary Nebulae
Hugh C. Harris, Conard C. Dahn, Blaise Canzian +11
Trigonometric parallaxes of 16 nearby planetary nebulae are presented, including reduced errors for seven objects with previous initial results and results for six new objects. The…
The White Dwarf Luminosity Function from SDSS Imaging Data
Hugh C. Harris, Jeffrey A. Munn, Mukremin Kilic +16
A sample of white dwarfs is selected from SDSS DR3 imaging data using their reduced proper motions, based on improved proper motions from SDSS plus USNO-B combined data. Numerous S…
Lick Northern Proper Motion Program. III. Lick NPM2 Catalog
Robert B. Hanson, Arnold R. Klemola, Burton F. Jones +1
The Lick Northern Proper Motion (NPM) program, a two-epoch (1947-1988) photographic survey of the northern two-thirds of the sky (Dec. > -23 deg), has measured absolute proper moti…
The second US Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog (UCAC2)
N. Zacharias, S. E. Urban, M. I. Zacharias +4
The second USNO CCD Astrograph Catalog, UCAC2 was released in July 2003. Positions and proper motions for 48,330,571 sources (mostly stars) are available on 3 CDs, supplemented wit…
