CROSS-MATCHING OF VERY LARGE CATALOGS
Journal Title: Odessa Astronomical Publications - Year 2015, Vol 28, Issue 2
Abstract
Modern astronomical catalogs and sky surveys, that contain billions of objects, belong to the “big data” data class. Existing available services have limited functionality and do not include all required and available catalogs. The software package ACrId (Astronomical Cross Identification) for cross-matching large astronomical catalogs, which uses an sphere pixelation algorithm HEALPix, ReiserFS file system and JSON-type text files for storage, has been developed at the Research Institution “Mykolaiv Astronomical Observatory”

IDENTIFICATION OF GEOSTATIONARY SATELLITES BY THEIR PHOTOMETRIC AND DYNAMIC FEATURES, SOME PROBLEMS
It is possible to identify certain characteristics of geostationary satellites by studying their photometry. This paper reviews some of the technical problems and methodologies concerning photometry of satellites, as wel...
HIGH-PRECISION FOLLOW-UP OBSERVATIONS OF NEAR-EARTH OBJECTS
Main objective of the study is orbit refinement of Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) as part of the global task of asteroid-cometary hazard. We present the latest results of ongoing high-precision astrometric follow-up observati...
THE OBSERVATIONS OF ARTIFICIAL SATELLITES AND SPACE DEBRIS USING KT-50 TELESCOPE IN THE ODESSA UNIVERSITY
In paper the equipment, images analysis techniques in the frame and the method of the satellite brightness estimation in the standard photometric system are describes. Within two years, on the KT-50 telescope were obtain...
THE PHYSICAL CONDITIONS OF THE CENTRAL PART OF ORION A HII REGION BY THE RADIO RECOMBINATION LINES AT 8 AND 13 MM
Observations of recombination radio lines (RRL) of hydrogen, helium (H, He) and carbon (C) were carried out in several positions of the HII region Orion A with RT22 radio telescope (Pushchino, Russia) at the wavelengths...
ULTI-WAVELENGTH MONITORING OF THE CHANGING-LOOK AGN NGC 2617 DURING STATE CHANGES
Optical and near-infrared photometry, optical spectroscopy, and soft X-ray and UV monitoring of the changing-look active galactic nucleus NGC 2617 show that it continues to have the appearance of a type-1 Sey...
