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…
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…
A New Sample of Distant Compact Groups From DPOSS
A. Iovino, R. de Carvalho, R. Gal +4
We have identified eighty-four small, high density groups of galaxies out to z ~ 0.2 in a region of ~ 2000 square degrees around the north galactic pole using DPOSS (the Digitized…
Cosmological Uses of Gamma-Ray Bursts
S. G. Djorgovski, S. R. Kulkarni, D. A. Frail +12
Studies of the cosmic gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and their host galaxies are starting to provide interesting or even unique new insights in observational cosmology. GRBs represent a n…
