  • The Center for Astrophysics Web-Based Telescope Time Proposal System 
    Mink, D. J.; Kenyon, Scott J.; Carter, B. J.; Ballester, P.; Egret, D.; Lorente, N. P. F. (2012)
    A web-based telescope proposal processing system has been developed at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory to interactively process proposals by CfA users of the MMT, FLWO 1.2-, 1.3-, and 1.5-meter telescopes, and ...
  • The Chandra Observational Ontology: Tying the Threads Together 
    Winkelman, S.; Rots, Arnold H.; Ballester, P.; Egret, D.; Lorente, N. P. F. (2012)
    The Chandra Data Archive (CDA) has been providing links between data and astronomical publications to the Astrophysics Data System (ADS) for many years as part of our maintaining of the Chandra Bibliography. In the past ...
  • Evolution of the IVOA Characterisation Data Model 
    Bonnarel, F.; Louys, M.; Chilingarian, I.; Ballester, P.; Egret, D.; Lorente, N. P. F. (2012)
    The Characterisation data model (Louys et al. 2011a) is a standard of the International Virtual Observatory Alliance (IVOA) that describes observational datasets in the multi-dimensional parameter space. Defining three ...
  • Iris: The VAO SED Application 
    Doe, S.; Bonaventura, N.; Busko, I.; D'Abrusco, Raffaele; Cresitello-Dittmar, M.; Ebert, R.; Evans, J.; Laurino, O.; McDowell, J.; Pevunova, O.; Refsdal, B.; Ballester, P.; Egret, D.; Lorente, N. P. F. (2012)
    We present Iris, the VAO (Virtual Astronomical Observatory) application for analyzing SEDs (spectral energy distributions). Iris is the result of one of the major science initiatives of the VAO, and the first version was ...
  • Knowledge Discovery Workflows in the Exploration of Complex Astronomical Datasets 
    D'Abrusco, Raffaele; Fabbiano, G.; Laurino, O.; Longo, G.; Ballester, P.; Egret, D.; Lorente, N. P. F. (2012)
    In this paper we present the Clustering-Labels-Score Patterns Spotter (CLaSPS), a new methodology for the determination of correlations among astronomical observables in complex datasets, based on the application of distinct ...
  • Lessons Learned in Building VO Resources: Binding Together Several VO Standards into an Operational Service 
    Chilingarian, I.; Bonnarel, F.; Louys, M.; Le Sidaner, P.; Ballester, P.; Egret, D.; Lorente, N. P. F. (2012)
    The International Virtual Observatory Alliance (IVOA) developed numerous interoperability standards during the last several years. Most of them are quite simple to implement from the technical point of view and even contain ...
  • Linking to Data: Effect on Citation Rates in Astronomy 
    Henneken, E. A.; Accomazzi, Alberto; Ballester, P.; Egret, D.; Lorente, N. P. F. (2012)
    Is there a difference in citation rates between articles that were published with links to data and articles that were not? Besides being interesting from a purely academic point of view, this question is also highly ...
  • New Metrics for Observatory Publication Statistics 
    Rots, Arnold H.; Winkelman, S.; Becker, G.; Ballester, P.; Egret, D.; Lorente, N. P. F. (2012)
    We are proposing several new publication metrics that are more meaningful and less sensitive to observatory-specific characteristics than the traditional ones. They fall into three main categories: speed of publication; ...
  • SedImporter: A Tool and an Extensible Framework for Constructing Interoperable Spectral Energy Distribution Data Files 
    Laurino, O.; D'Abrusco, Raffaele; Cresitello-Dittmar, M.; Evans, J.; McDowell, J.; Ballester, P.; Egret, D.; Lorente, N. P. F. (2012)
    The SedImporter enables the seamless analysis and exploration of photometric and spectroscopic data by allowing users to combine their own data files with archival data extracted from VAO services and convert that data ...
  • Why Don't We Already Have an Integrated Framework for the Publication and Preservation of All Data Products? 
    Accomazzi, Alberto; Derriere, S.; Biemesderfer, C.; Gray, N.; Ballester, P.; Egret, D.; Lorente, N. P. F. (2012)
    Astronomy has long had a working network of archives supporting the curation of publications and data. The discipline has already created many of the features which perplex other areas of science: (1) data repositories: ...
