Stars and Distant Universe
This theme is dedicated to observational data access (images, spectra, light-curves, catalogs) covering stellar and extragalactic objects. Different tools for data access through VO protocols and web portals with visualisation features are developed and made available for other projects.
Main services (part of the Actions Nationales d’Observation of the CNRS-INSU):
- GAIA-TAP (ANO5): VO access to the GAIA DR2 catalogue, more information on this page
- Seismic Plus (ANO5): Stellar seismic indices from different missions and instruments, accessible through a portal
- ALMA-ARTEMIX (ANO3, ALMA Regional Center): online visualization tools for ALMA data
- CTA Data (ANO2 : preparation to CTA, the Cherenkov Telescope Array): prototype of a VO access portal, and VO access to the H.E.S.S. first public data release (see also this page and HESS precursor)
Other services or developments:
- NAROO (New Astrometric Reduction of Old Observations): website
- CompOSE (CompStar Online Supernovæ Equations of State): online service
In addition, access to several databases of fixed objects is possible through a single interface:
- Legacy Astronomy portal at PADC (rejuvenation in progress)
