The Chinese VIRTUAL OBSERVATORY IVO 现状与研究进展 崔辰州 China-VO Project 中科院国家天文台 China-VO 2005
报告内容 • 虚拟天文台历史与现状 • 国际虚拟天文台联盟(IVOA) • 中国虚拟天文台(China-VO) China-VO 2005
VO concept • Virtual Observatory (VO) is a data-intensively online astronomical research and education environment, taking advantages of advanced information technologies to achieve seamless, global access to astronomical information. • The power of the World Wide Web is its transparency. It is as if all the documents in the world are inside your PC. The idea of the Virtual Observatory is to achieve the same transparency for astronomical data and other related information (Quinn et al. 2004). China-VO 2005
VO concept (cont.) • The VO is: • A set of international standards to share complex data • A modular set of tools to work with distributed data • A simple environment to publish data to • An essential part of the research astronomer’s toolkit • A catalyst for world-wide access to astronomical archives • A vehicle for education and public outreach • The VO is not: • A replacement for building new telescopes • A centralized repository for data • A data quality enforcement organization China-VO 2005
VO历史回顾 • 1990s:NASA成立了按波长划分的科学数据中心,多个地基数字巡天项目开始 • 1999年4月, 美国理论、计算和数据发现十年规划调研专家组成立 • Szalay, Prince, Alcock 提出 “National Virtual Observatory”的概念 • 1999年11月, NVO 在JHU组织研讨会 • 2000年2月, 第二届 NVO 研讨会在NOAO召开 • 2000年6月, “Virtual Observatories of the Future”在Caltech召开,褚耀泉参加会议 • 2001年2月, “新千年的天文学与天体物理学”发表 • 2001年9月, 美国NSF 宣布对NVO项目的资助 • 2002年6月,国际虚拟天文台联盟成立 China-VO 2005
International VO Alliance China-VO 2005
International VO Alliance • The IVOA brings together the astronomers, developers, and managers of the VO initiatives world-wide • Agreements on standards for data access (VOTable, catalog queries, image retrieval, resource descriptions, etc.) • Coordination of development activities • Sharing of software • Sharing of experience China-VO 2005

AstroGrid: Science Use ReadyNicholas WaltonAstroGrid Project ScientistIoA, Cambridge A PPARC funded project China-VO 2005
First Science Paper from VO • A&A 424, 545-559 (2004) Discovery of optically faint obscured quasars with Virtual Observatory tools • The AVO science team discovered 31 previously undetected powerful supermassive black holes in the so-called GOODS (Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey) fields. China-VO 2005
Second Science Paper from VO • Accepted by A&A • Luminous AGB stars in nearby galaxies: A study using Virtual Observatory tools • Searching for very luminous AGB stars with J − Ks > 1.5 mag and H − Ks > 0.4 mag in the LMC, SMC, M31, and M33 from 2MASS data. China-VO 2005
The Next Steps: Participant in VO Science Demos 2005 • AstroGrid: Consortium meeting: Today. 14 Dec 2004 • Galaxy distances • Brown dwarf discovery • Solar coronal mass ejections • Euro-VO: ESAC, Madrid: 25-26 Jan 2005 • Star formation histories • AGB to PN transitions • A Widening range of capabilities, data, applications • Increasing scientific usefulness • GOAL: end 2005 – science papers enabled by VO China-VO 2005
Next Steps: 2005-2007 • AstroGrid at the thresh hold of enabling significant science • Prioritisation on automating bulk workflows and data access • Working in partnership to link to additional functionality • Key science programmes for AstroGrid to 2007 and AstroGrid in the Euro-VO being formulated • Focus on supporting major new (<2007) data flows • e.g. VISTA, Planck, Herschel, VLT • Science is a major driver in AG2 and VOTECH (Euro-VO) • GOAL: 2010 for >90% of all science to be VO enabled China-VO 2005
