A networking transport protocol, named Saratoga, has been developed at the University of Surrey for efficient delivery of imagery from Internet-Protocol-based remote-sensing satellites. Saratoga is now being implemented and evaluated for…
In quantum-enhanced astronomical imaging, multiple distant apertures work together by utilizing quantum resources distributed from a central server. Our findings suggest that pre-processing the stellar light received by all telescopes can…
Astronomy is entering a new era of discovery, coincident with the establishment of new facilities for observation and simulation that will routinely generate petabytes of data. While an increasing reliance on automated data analysis is…
Virtual Observatory (VO) is a collection of interoperating data archives and software tools. Taking advantages of the latest information technologies, it aims to provide a data-intensively online research environment for astronomers all…
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA), a ground-based facility for very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray astronomy, will operate as an open observatory, serving a wide scientific community to explore and to study the non-thermal universe. Open…
A cost-effective augmented reality (AR) system is presented for visualising three-dimensional magnetic field structures and charged-particle trajectories in magnetically confined fusion plasmas. The system presented in this study integrates…
We review some of the scientific opportunities and technical challenges posed by the exploration of the large digital sky surveys, in the context of a Virtual Observatory (VO). The VO paradigm will profoundly change the way observational…
Integral Field Spectroscopy is a powerful observing technique for Astronomy that is becoming available at most ground-based observatories as well as in space. The complex data obtained with this technique require new approaches for…
The New Vacuum Solar Telescope (NVST) is a 1-m solar telescope that aims to observe the fine structures in both the photosphere and the chromosphere of the Sun. The observational data acquired simultaneously from one channel for the…
A large number of sensors deployed in recent years in various setups and their data is readily available in dedicated databases or in the cloud. Of particular interest is real-time data processing and 3D visualization in web-based user…
The Virtual Telescope for X-Ray Observations (VTXO) is a conceptual mission under development to demonstrate a new instrument for astronomical observations in the X-ray band using a set of 6U CubeSats. VTXO will use a Phase Fresnel Lens,…
For all active instruments, the Keck Observatory Archive (KOA) now ingests raw data from the Keck Telescopes within 1 minute of acquisition, quick-look reduced data within 5 minutes of creation, and science ready reduced data for four…
Remote collaboration systems have become increasingly important in today's society, especially during times where physical distancing is advised. Industry, research and individuals face the challenging task of collaborating and networking…
Large amounts of Adaptive-Optics (AO) control loop data and telemetry are currently inaccessible to end-users. Broadening access to those data has the potential to change the AO landscape on many fronts, addressing several use-cases such as…
A major challenge in modern radio astronomy is dealing with the massive data volumes generated by wide-bandwidth receivers. Such massive data rates are often too great for a single device to cope, and so processing must be split across…
We present our activity on making the Subaru Data Archive accessible through the Japanese Virtual Observatory (JVO) system. There are a lot of demand to use the archived Subaru data from various fields of astronomers. To be used by those…
This chapter describes how astronomical imaging survey data have become a vital part of modern astronomy, how these data are archived and then served to the astronomical community through on-line data access portals. The Virtual…
Nowadays, Virtual Observatory standards, resources, and services became powerful enough to help astronomers making real science on everyday basis. The key to the VO success is its entire transparency for a scientific user. This allows an…
OARPAF (Osservatorio Astronomico Regionale Parco Antola Comune di Fascia, Italy) hosts an 80cm Astelco telescope with a Gambato Dome, SBIG-STX camera, Davis weather station, and SBIG AllSky camera. We present a layer-structured python3…
