Download or read book The Midcourse Space Experiment Point Source Catalog Version 2 3 Explanatory Guide written by M. P. Egan and published by . This book was released on 2003-10 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Explanatory Guide describes Version 2.3 of the Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX) Point Source Catalog. The data calibration and processing are detailed, with particular attention to improvements over the initial published catalog, Version 1.2. The current catalog contains sources extracted from nearly all of the MSX astronomy experiments, including more than 100,000 sources that were not in the previous version. Most of the photometry was extracted from the co-added images, as opposed to the single-scan data, which significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio of the point sources and hence their reliability. Comparison with Tycho-2 positions indicates that the astrometric accuracy of Version 2.3 is better by about I compared to Version 1.2. In addition to the Galactic Plane, Areas Missed by IRAS, and the Large Magellanic Cloud, which were included in Version 1.2, this release includes data from the Small Magellanic Cloud, eight nearby galaxies, and several molecular clouds and star forming regions.
Download or read book Infrared and Submillimeter Space Missions in the Coming Decade written by Harley A. Thronson Jr. and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revolution similar to that brought by CCDs to visible astronomy is still ahead in IR and submillimeter astronomy. There is certainly no wavelength range which has, over the past several years, seen such impressive advances in technology: large-scale detector arrays, new designs for cooling in space, lightweight mirror technologies. Scientific cases for observing the cold universe are outstanding. Observations in the FIR/Submm range will provide answers to such fundamental questions as: What is the spectrum of the primordial fluctuations? How do primeval galaxies look? What are the first stages of star formation? Most of the international space missions that have been triggered by these questions are presented in detail here. Technological issues raised by these missions are reviewed, as are the most recent achievements in cooling and detector technologies.

This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reducing the cost of space program interests people more and more nowadays due to the concerns of budget limitation and commercialization of space technology. The Proceedings of the 3rd International Symposium on Reducing the Cost of Spacecraft Ground Systems and Operations bring together papers contributed by the authors representing the research organizations, academic institutions and commercial sectors of 10 countries around the world. The papers encompass the subject areas in mission planning and operation, TT&C systems, mission control centers, and mini and small satellite support, highlighting the issues concerned by the researchers and engineers involved in a wide range of space programs and space industries.

Download or read book Science with Astronomical Near Infrared Sky Surveys written by N. Epchtein and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outstanding progress in near-infrared detection technology and in real-time image processing has led astronomers to start undertaking all-sky surveys in the 1--2 mum range (project DENIS in Europe and 2MASS in the U.S.A.), surveys which will have a considerable impact in various areas of astronomy. This book gathers the contributions of more than 80 specialists involved in fields of interest as different as low mass stars, late stages of stellar evolution, star formation, stellar populations of the Galaxy and the Magellanic Clouds, the local structure of the Universe, and observational cosmology. It describes the impact on these fields of the exhaustive data bases and catalogs of stars and galaxies that these surveys will provide. The considerable interest of these documents for the future of infrared space and ground-based projects and the complementarity with other currently ongoing or planned surveys in other spectral ranges are emphasized.
