Discovery of optically faint obscured quasars with Virtual Observatory tools [PDF]
We use Virtual Observatory (VO) tools to identify optically faint, obscured (i.e., type 2) active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the two Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS) fields.

Clusterix 2.0: a virtual observatory tool to estimate cluster membership probability [PDF]
ABSTRACT Clusterix 2.0 is a web-based, Virtual Observatory compliant, interactive tool for the determination of membership probabilities in stellar clusters based on proper-motion data using a fully non-parametric method. In an area occupied by a cluster, the frequency function is made up of two contributions: cluster and field stars ...

Multiband Study of Radio Sources of the RCR Catalogue with Virtual Observatory Tools
We present early results of our multiband study of the RATAN Cold Revised (RCR) catalogue obtained from seven cycles of the “Cold” survey carried with the RATAN-600 radio telescope at 7.6 cm in 1980-1999, at the declination of the SS 433 source.

Topic Maps as a Virtual Observatory tool [PDF]
One major component of the VO will be catalogs measuring gigabytes and terrabytes if not more. Some mechanism like XML will be used for structuring the information. However, such mechanisms are not good for information retrieval on their own. For retrieval we use queries.

SEARCH FOR BRIGHT NEARBY M DWARFS WITH VIRTUAL OBSERVATORY TOOLS [PDF]
Using Virtual Observatory tools, we cross-matched the Carlsberg Meridian 14 and the 2MASS Point Source catalogs to select candidate nearby bright M dwarfs distributed over ~ 25,000 deg^2. Here, we present reconnaissance low-resolution optical spectra for 27 candidates that were observed with the Intermediate Dispersion Spectrograph at the 2.5m Isaac ...
