Sky in Google Earth: The Next Frontier in Astronomical Data Discovery and Visualization
Ryan Scranton, Andrew Connolly, Simon Krughoff +7
Astronomy began as a visual science, first through careful observations of the sky using either an eyepiece or the naked eye, then on to the preservation of those images with photo…
Statistical Properties of the GALEX/SDSS matched source catalogs, and classification of the UV sources
Luciana Bianchi, Lino Rodriguez-Merino, Maurice Viton +30
We use the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) Medium and All-Sky-Imaging Survey (MIS & AIS) data from the first public data release (GR1), matched to the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (S…
The Multimission Archive at the Space Telescope Science Institute in the context of VO activities
Inga Kamp, Randall Thompson, Alberto Conti +7
In the past year, the Multimission Archive at the Space Telescope Science Institute (MAST) has taken major steps in making MAST's holdings available using VO-defined protocols and…
The Star Formation History of Galaxies Measured from Individual Pixels. I. The Hubble Deep Field North
Alberto Conti, Andrew J. Connolly, Andrew M. Hopkins +6
We analyze the photometric information contained in individual pixels of galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field North (HDFN) using a new technique, _pixel-z_, that combines predictions…
From Correlations of Galaxy Properties to the Physics of Galaxy Formation: A Theoretical Framework
Alberto Conti, Barbara S. Ryden, David H. Weinberg
(Abridged) Motivated by forthcoming data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we present a theoretical framework that can be used to interpret Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of d…
Quasar Candidates in the Hubble Deep Field
Alberto Conti, Julia D. Kennefick, Paul Martini +1
We focus on the search for unresolved faint quasars and AGN in the crude combine images using a multicolor imaging analysis that has proven very successful in recent years. Quasar…
