Galaxy Zoo Builder: Four Component Photometric decomposition of Spiral Galaxies Guided by Citizen Science
Timothy K. Lingard, Karen L. Masters, Coleman Krawczyk +7
Multi-component modelling of galaxies is a valuable tool in the effort to quantitatively understand galaxy evolution, yet the use of the technique is plagued by issues of convergen…
The Milky Way Project Second Data Release: Bubbles and Bow Shocks
Tharindu Jayasinghe, Don Dixon, Matthew S. Povich +9
Citizen science has helped astronomers comb through large data sets to identify patterns and objects that are not easily found through automated processes. The Milky Way Project (M…
Planet Four: Probing Springtime Winds on Mars by Mapping the Southern Polar CO Jet Deposits
K. -Michael Aye, Megan E. Schwamb, Ganna Portyankina +11
The springtime sublimation process of Mars' southern seasonal polar CO ice cap features dark fan-shaped deposits appearing on the top of the thawing ice sheet. The fan material…
Radio Galaxy Zoo: host galaxies and radio morphologies derived from visual inspection
J. K. Banfield, O. I. Wong, K. W. Willett +33
We present results from the first twelve months of operation of Radio Galaxy Zoo, which upon completion will enable visual inspection of over 170,000 radio sources to determine the…
Space Warps: I. Crowd-sourcing the Discovery of Gravitational Lenses
Philip J. Marshall, Aprajita Verma, Anupreeta More +20
We describe Space Warps, a novel gravitational lens discovery service that yields samples of high purity and completeness through crowd-sourced visual inspection. Carefully produce…
Space Warps II. New Gravitational Lens Candidates from the CFHTLS Discovered through Citizen Science
Anupreeta More, Aprajita Verma, Philip J. Marshall +18
We report the discovery of 29 promising (and 59 total) new lens candidates from the CFHT Legacy Survey (CFHTLS) based on about 11 million classifications performed by citizen scien…
