THE VARIABLE SKY OF DEEP SYNOPTIC SURVEYS [PDF]
Published in ApJ, 22 pages, 26 figures, 3 tables; subsequent correction of an important error in interpretation of the Besancon models reduces stellar variable numbers significantly, as seen in figures 6 ...

Target Selection and Validation of DESI Quasars
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey will measure large-scale structures using quasars as direct tracers of dark matter in the redshift range 0.9 < z < 2.1 and using Ly α forests in quasar spectra at z > 2.1.

The LOFAR LBA Sky Survey [PDF]
Context. The LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) is the only radio telescope that is presently capable of high-sensitivity, high-resolution (i.e. < 1 mJy beam−1 and < 15″) observations at ultra-low frequencies (< 100 MHz). To utilise these capabilities, the LOFAR Surveys Key Science Project is undertaking a large survey to cover the entire northern ...

A Southern Photometric Quasar Catalog from the Dark Energy Survey Data Release 2
We present a catalog of 1.4 million photometrically selected quasar candidates in the southern hemisphere over the ∼5000 deg ^2 Dark Energy Survey (DES) wide survey area. We combine optical photometry from the DES second data release (DR2) with available

The VLA Low‐frequency Sky Survey [PDF]
AbstractWe present an overview of the ongoing VLA Low‐frequency Sky Survey (VLSS, formerly known as 4MASS). The VLSS will map an area of 9.1 sr covering the entire sky above a declination of –30 degrees (or 75% of the full sky), at a frequency of 74 MHz (4 meter wavelength) with an unprecedented combination of sensitivity and resolution at this low ...

Modeling and Simulation of Sky Survey
Sky surveys with wide and deep field are the key direction of international astronomy research for the next decades. It is worthwhile to study how to design a sky survey algorithm to obtain the maximum scientific output in a limited period of observation.
