In order to allow for an efficient and flexible scientific analysis of data from the SPI imaging spectrometer aboard INTEGRAL, I developed a set of analysis executables that are publicly available through the internet. The software is fully…

During the period Aug.23-Sept.24 2003, the INTEGRAL observatory performed an ultra deep survey of the Galactic Center region with a record sensitivity at energies higher than 20 keV. We have analized images of the Galactic Center region…

The Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) had a tremendous impact on many areas of modern astrophysics. In particular it revealed the ubiquity of infrared cirrus that are a spectacular manifestation of the interstellar medium complexity…

Since its launch on October 2002, the INTEGRAL satellite has revolutionized our knowledge of the hard X-ray sky thanks to its unprecedented imaging capabilities and source detection positional accuracy above 20 keV. Nevertheless, many of…

X-ray bursts are thermonuclear explosions on the surface of accreting neutron stars in low mass X-ray binaries. As most of the known X-ray bursters are frequently observed by INTEGRAL, an international collaboration have been taking…

We review the results on Gamma-ray Bursts obtained during the first two and a half years of operations of the INTEGRAL Burst Alert System (IBAS). In many cases GRB coordinates have been distributed with an unprecedented combination of…

The forthcoming generation of wireless technology, 6G, aims to usher in an era of ubiquitous intelligent services, where everything is interconnected and intelligent. This vision requires the seamless integration of three fundamental…

Recent advancements in Earth system science have been marked by the exponential increase in the availability of diverse, multivariate datasets characterised by moderate to high spatio-temporal resolutions. Earth System Data Cubes (ESDCs)…

ESA's INTErnational Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory (INTEGRAL) was launched on 17 Oct 2002 at 06:41 CEST. Since then, it has been providing long, uninterrupted observations (up to about 47 hr, or 170 ksec, per satellite orbit of 2.7 days)…

This paper is the second in a series devoted to the hard X-ray (17-60 keV) whole sky survey performed by the INTEGRAL observatory over seven years. Here we present a catalog of detected sources which includes 521 objects, 449 of which…

For the first time in the history of high energy astronomy, a large CdTe gamma-ray camera is operating in space. ISGRI is the low-energy camera of the IBIS telescope on board the INTEGRAL satellite. This paper details its design and its…

ESA's hard X-ray and soft gamma-ray observatory INTEGRAL is covering the 3 keV to 10 MeV energy band, with excellent sensitivity during long and uninterrupted observations of a large field of view (~100 square degrees), with ms time…

Although the circulatory system functions as a continuous source of physiological data, contemporary diagnostics remain bound to intermittent, time-delayed assessments. To resolve this, we present a framework for ubiquitous hematological…

The Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) is a four-channel camera on the Spitzer Space Telescope, one of three focal plane science instruments. IRAC uses two pairs of 256x256 pixel InSb and Si:As IBC detectors to provide simultaneous imaging at…

The field of computer vision has greatly matured in the past decade, and many of the methods and techniques can be useful for astronomical applications. One example is in searching large imaging surveys for objects of interest, especially…

A data life cycle (DLC) is a high-level data processing pipeline that involves data acquisition, event reconstruction, data analysis, publication, archiving, and sharing. For astroparticle physics a DLC is particularly important due to the…

All of the observations performed with the IBIS telescope onboard the INTEGRAL observatory during the first one and a half years of its in-orbit operation (from February 10, 2003, through July 2, 2004) have been analyzed to find X-ray…

As members of the instrument team for the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) on NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and as Chandra General Observers, we have developed a wide variety of data analysis methods that we believe are useful to…

Given a dataset and an existing clustering as input, alternative clustering aims to find an alternative partition. One of the state-of-the-art approaches is Kernel Dimension Alternative Clustering (KDAC). We propose a novel Iterative…
