An introduction to FITSWebQL

C. Zapart, Y. Shirasaki, M. Ohishi +7

The JVO ALMA WebQL web service - available through the JVO ALMA FITS archive - has been upgraded to include legacy data from other telescopes, for example Nobeyama NRO45M in Japan.…

Observing the Sun with the Atacama Large Millimeter-submillimeter Array (ALMA): Fast-Scan Single-Dish Mapping

S. M. White, K. Iwai, N. M. Phillips +31

The Atacama Large Millimeter-submillimeter Array (ALMA) radio telescope has commenced science observations of the Sun starting in late 2016. Since the Sun is much larger than the f…

Prototype Implementation of Web and Desktop Applications for ALMA Science Verification Data and the Lessons Learned

Satoshi Eguchi, Wataru Kawasaki, Yuji Shirasaki +4

ALMA is estimated to generate TB scale data during only one observation; astronomers manage to identify which part of the data they are really interested in. Now we have been devel…

The Aquarius Superclusters - I. Identification of Clusters and Superclusters

Cesar A. Caretta, Marcio A. G. Maia, Wataru Kawasaki +1

We study the distribution of galaxies and galaxy clusters in a 10^deg x 6^deg field in the Aquarius region. In addition to 63 clusters in the literature, we have found 39 new candi…

Positional Coincidence between the High-latitude Steady Unidentified Gamma-ray Sources and Possibly Merging Clusters of Galaxies

Wataru Kawasaki, Tomonori Totani

We report an evidence for the first time that merging clusters of galaxies are a promising candidate for the origin of high galactic-latitude, steady unidentified EGRET gamma-ray s…

The APM/Matched-Filter Cluster Catalog

Wataru Kawasaki

A catalog of nearby clusters in the 5800 deg area in the southern Galactic cap is constructed by applying a matched-filter cluster-finding algorithm to the sample of 3.3 millio…

Probing the evolution of early-type galaxies using multi-colour number counts and redshift distributions

Fumiaki Nakata, Kazuhiro Shimasaku, Mamoru Doi +7

We investigate pure luminosity evolution models for early-type (elliptical and S0) galaxies (i.e., no number density change or morphology transition), and examine whether these mod…

Optical Identification of the Hardest X-ray Source in the ASCA Large Sky Survey

M. Akiyama, K. Ohta, T. Yamada +9

We report the optical identification of the hardest X-ray source (AX J131501+3141) detected in an unbiased wide-area survey in the 0.5--10 keV band, the ASCA Large Sky Survey. The…

An Objective and Automatic Cluster Finder: An Improvement of the Matched-Filter Method

Wataru Kawasaki, Kazuhiro Shimasaku, Mamoru Doi +1

We describe an objective and automated method for detecting clusters of galaxies from optical imaging data. This method is a variant of the so-called `matched-filter' technique pio…
