Virtual Observatory: From Concept to Implementation
S. G. Djorgovski, R. Williams
We review the origins of the Virtual Observatory (VO) concept, and the current status of the efforts in this field. VO is the response of the astronomical community to the challeng…
Time Domain Explorations With Digital Sky Surveys
A. A. Mahabal, S. G. Djorgovski, M. J. Graham +17
One of the new frontiers of astronomical research is the exploration of time variability on the sky at different wavelengths and flux levels. We have carried out a pilot project us…
Grist: Grid-based Data Mining for Astronomy
Joseph C. Jacob, Roy Williams, Jogesh Babu +8
The Grist project (http://grist.caltech.edu/) is developing a grid-technology based system as a research environment for astronomy with massive and complex datasets. This knowledge…
Exploring the Time Domain with the Palomar-QUEST Sky Survey
A. Mahabal, S. G. Djorgovski, M. J. Graham +16
Exploration of the time variability on the sky over a broad range of flux levels and wavelengths is rapidly becoming a new frontier of astronomical research. We describe here brief…
Direct Constraints on the Properties and Evolution of Dark Energy
Ruth A. Daly, S. G. Djorgovski
We describe a method to derive the expansion and acceleration rates directly from the data, without the need for the specification of a theory of gravity, and without adopting an a…
Palomar-QUEST: A case study in designing sky surveys in the VO era
Matthew J. Graham, Roy Williams, S. G. Djorgovski +10
The advent of wide-area multicolour synoptic sky surveys is leading to data sets unprecedented in size, complexity and data throughput. VO technology offers a way to exploit these…
