Notebooks in this Section#
The notebooks in this section demonstrate how to execute example science queries, grouped by technique & technical similarities. These queries are drawn from the 20 queries for SDSS as presented by Gray, Szalay, et al. (2002), adapted for the Pan-STARRS PS1 database. In all, this series of notebooks will present the 11 queries which are applicable for PS1.

Description |
|---|---|
Tutorial for how to query Pan-STARRS DR2 (PS1 DR2) catalogs using the Table Access Protocol (TAP) service at MAST. The example queries here demonstrate how to perform queries requiring only filtering, including bitflag operations. |
|
Tutorial for how to query Pan-STARRS DR2 (PS1 DR2) catalogs using MAST’s TAP service, and use cutouts for visualization of galaxies from the selected samples. |
|
Tutorial demonstrating how to spatially bin (with selection criteria filtering) objects from the Pan-STARRS DR2 catalogs, using the Table Access Protocol (TAP) service at MAST. |
|
Tutorial for how to query Pan-STARRS DR2 (PS1 DR2) catalogs using MAST’s TAP service, with examples demonstrating how to construct queries (with joins) that use multiple individual detections to investigate objects with time-variable properties (e.g., moving objects or objects with magnitude variations). |
More Pan-STARRS example query notebooks will be coming soon!
