J-PLUS: Javalambre Photometric Local Universe Survey
The Javalambre-Photometric Local Universe Survey, J-PLUS, is an unprecedented photometric sky survey of 8500 deg2 visible from Javalambre, using a set of 12 broad, intermediate and narrow band filters. J-PLUS will be a powerful 3D view of the nearby Universe that will observe and characterize tens of millions of galaxies and stars of the Milky Way halo, with a wide range of Astrophysical applications.
JAST/T80 Telescope: Javalambre Auxiliary Telescope
The Javalambre Auxiliary Survey Telescope (JAST/T80) is an 80cm Ritchey Chrétien telescope with a large field of view of 2 deg diameter, particularly defined for carrying out large sky photometric surveys like J-PLUS.
Instrumentation: T80Cam
OAJ: Observatorio Astrofísico de Javalambre
The Observatorio Astrofísico de Javalambre is an astronomical Spanish ICTS particularly devoted to carry out large sky astronomical surveys with two large field of view telescopes, state-of-the-art panoramic instrumentation, and an unprecedented set of optical filters.
The first 8 scientific articles of the J-PLUS survey published in the international journal Astronomy & Astrophysics
Just six months after the publication of the first thousand square degrees of the sky observed by the survey, J-PLUS begins to give the first scientific results with the publication of eight articles in the internat...
The J-PLUS First Data Release (July 2018) (J-PLUS-DR1) comprises 511 J-PLUS fields observed in twelve optical bands amounting to 1022 deg2 with ~8.4 million objects at r < 21.
You can access to DR1 description and data here.
J-PLUS will discover an unprecedented number of stars, galaxies, supernovas, quasars and solar system objects, which will be mapped with exquisite accuracy and will allow a wide variety of science applications.
