Credit Lost: Two Decades of Software Citation in Astronomy
Astrophysical Journal, Supplement Series, 2020 Abstract Software has been a crucial contributor to scientific progress in astronomy for decades, but practices that enable machine-actionable citations have not been consistently applied to software itself. Instead, software citation behaviors developed independently from standard publication mechanisms and policies, resulting in human ...

Software Systems for Astronomy [PDF]
SpringerBriefs in Astronomy, 2014 This book covers the use and development of software for astronomy. It describes the control systems used to point the telescope and operate its cameras and spectrographs, as well as the web-based tools used to plan those observations.

Open high-level data formats and software for gamma-ray astronomy [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2017 In gamma-ray astronomy, a variety of data formats and proprietary software have been traditionally used, often developed for one specific mission or experiment. Especially for ground-based imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs), data and software are mostly private to the collaborations operating the telescopes.

Energy-efficient data transfers in radio astronomy with software UDP RDMA [PDF]
Future Generation Computer Systems, 2018 Modern radio astronomy relies on very large amounts of data that need to be transferred between various parts of astronomical instruments, over distances that are often in the range of tens or hundreds of kilometres. The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will be the world's largest radio telescope, data rates between its components will exceed Terabits per ...

A Systematic Magnetic Polarity Inversion Line Data Set from SDO/HMI Magnetograms
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 Magnetic polarity inversion lines (PILs) detected in solar active regions have long been recognized as arguably the most essential feature for triggering instabilities such as flares and eruptive events (i.e., eruptive flares and coronal mass ejections).

HAFFET: Hybrid Analytic Flux FittEr for Transients
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 The progenitors for many types of supernovae (SNe) are still unknown, and an approach to diagnose their physical origins is to investigate the light-curve brightness and shape of a large set of SNe.
