Service OutageOn Saturday, July 27, from 11:00 to 21:00 UTC (7 am to 5 pm US Eastern Time), all MAST services will be unavailable due to maintenance. Referencing Data Sets in Astronomical LiteratureThe Astrophysics Data Centers Executive Council (ADEC) has recommended a naming convention for referencing datasets in astronomical literature. The convention is basically to add a prefix to the current dataset names producing a reference of the form:
The list of MAST-relevant facilities registered with the ADS are stored online in an xml-format file at: archive.stsci.edu/profile/mast_profile.xml and include the following:
Examples of valid names would be:
To search for a given data set using the above naming conventions, go to http://vo.ads.harvard.edu/dv/DataVerifier.cgi. This will search not only MAST, but all the NASA data centers. More information on the ADS dataset verification service can be found at http://ads.harvard.edu/www/dv. To verify the existence of particular MAST data sets using the standard naming conventions, and display the recommended data set reference following the AAS guidelines, go to http://archive.stsci.edu/dataset_verifier.php".
The complete list of ADS registered facilities
is available at
http://ads.harvard.edu/www/dv/facilities.txt.
More information on the proposed dataset identifiers and
how to specify them in an AASTeX manuscript, can be
found at Chandra web site
