CfA Dataverse

This is the Astronomy data repository at Harvard. It is currently open to all scientific data from astronomical institutions worldwide. Administration and support is provided by the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA) in collaboration with Harvard Library (HL) and the Institute for Quantitative Social Science (IQSS). Infrastructure is provided by Harvard University Information Technology Services.

The Astronomy Dataverse Network plays an important role in fulfilling your Data Management Plan requirements (e.g. as mandated by NSF), and for providing data re-use and citation opportunities. Find out more about our team by exploring the Seamless Astronomy and Wolbach Library teams at the CfA. We are also connecting the Astronomy Dataverse to the indexing services provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysical Data Service (ADS).

13CO/C18O (J = 3 → 2) Heterodyne Inner Milky Way Plane Survey (CHIMPS) Dataverse(Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics) Sep 5, 2016MilkyWay3D Dataverse The 13CO/C18O (J = 3 → 2) Heterodyne Inner Milky Way Plane Survey (CHIMPS) is a high-resolution spectral survey covering \|b\| ≤ 0.5° and 28° ≲ l ≲ 46°. It has an angular resolution of 15” and consists of 0.5 km/s velocity channels. Because of its rarer isotopologues the survey probes a higher critical density of CO (>10^4 cm^-3) at temperatures less...
