GAVO’s Pillars Federation of datasets Matching & Classification & Visualization (NGSE) Grid computing Theoretical VO and Theory-Observation Interface Wiss. Beirat AIP, 01.10. 2004 ClusterFinder & VO-Methods H. Enke
Federation of Datasets • Towards a multi-wavelength view of universe • Matching • Classification (GAVO/ClassX) • SEDs • Web services • Based on standards + protocols • HTTP + XML or SOAP + WSDL Wiss. Beirat AIP, 01.10. 2004 ClusterFinder & VO-Methods H. Enke
NGSE (Next Generation Search Engine) • Download Manager • Retrieves data from multiple distributed databases • Matcher • Matches sources based on sky-position (astronomical sources have no unique identifier) • Classifier • Uses multi-wavelength data for identification purposes • Visualization Tools Wiss. Beirat AIP, 01.10. 2004 ClusterFinder & VO-Methods H. Enke
Grid computing • Cosmologic simulations running on joint MPE and AIP workstation grid (with MPI) • Grid computing for source extraction and identification programs Wiss. Beirat AIP, 01.10. 2004 ClusterFinder & VO-Methods H. Enke

ClusterFinder • Simultaneous search for X-ray clusters of galaxies • X-ray photon maps (RASS) • Optical galaxy maps (SDSS) developped by P. Schuecker et al. „On a test area of 140 square degrees, 75 X-ray clusters are detected down to an X-ray flux limit of 3 x 10-13 erg s-1 cm-2 in the ROSAT energy band 0.1-2.4 keV. The clusters have redshifts z < 0.5. The survey thus fills the gap between traditional large-area X-ray surveys and serendipitous X-ray cluster searches based on pointed observations, and has the potential to yield about 4,000 X-ray clusters after completion of SDSS.“ Wiss.
