DATACENTRES, DATABASES & CATALOGUES
Main actors in astronomy research in the country  There are 7 Research Institutes in the structure of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (NAS of Ukraine), 2 Research Institutes in the structure of the Ministry of Education and Science, Youth and Sport of Ukraine (MESYS of Ukraine); 15 astronomical observatories and Departments in the structure of the Universities of the MESYS of Ukraine; 1 Private Astronomical Observatory play a main role in the development and teaching Astronomy in Ukraine.
 
The XPM Catalog  Absolute proper motions of 280 million stars distributed all over the sky without gaps in the magnitude range 10m < V <20m on the basis of combined data from 2MASS and USNO-A2.0 catalogues.
 
MAO NASU Plate Archive   Digital archive of MAO NAS of Ukraine (GPA) comprises data of about 26 thousands of direct photographic plates, obtained with 14 instruments in 9 observational sites, and more than 2000 digital images of different resolution available via GPA search pages.
 
Mykolaiv AO Plate Archive   Digital archive of Mykolaiv Aastronomical Observatory (MykAO) includes astronomical data obtained during observations with photo plates and CCD frames. The digitization of the archive is near its completion. Digitized images are available via a web browser and Aladin.
 
AO LNU Plate Archive   Astronomical Observatory of Lviv National University (AO LNU) is the owner of valuable archive that stores approximately 8 000 of photographic plates from 1939, including nearly 6 000 direct images of the northern sky. The archive is partly digitized and images are available via the joint search pages of AO LNU and MAO NASU.
 
IRA UTR-2 catalogue of RS   The very-low frequency sky survey of discrete sources has been obtained in the Institute of Radio Astronomy of the Ukrainian National Academy of Sciences (Kharkov, Ukraine) with the UTR-2 radio telescope at a number of the lowest frequencies used in contemporary radio astronomy within the range from 10 to 25 MHz.
 
Mykolaiv AO stellar catalogues   27 astrometric stellar catalogues of Mykolaiv Aastronomical Observatory (MykAO) in VOTable format are available for downloading
 
AO KNU Historic Plate Archive   AO KNU glass collection contains about 20 thousand photographic plates. Historical part of the archive was received during 1898-1946 and now is being digitized.

The Role of Data Science in Astronomy and Interstellar Exploration 
Space has always been a fascinating frontier for humans. From the first satellite, Sputnik 1, in 1957, to the amazing Mars rovers, our adventures in space show our love for discovery, creativity, and courage. Exploring space is a big dream, always pushing us to learn more and go further. Nowadays, data science is making a meaningful contribution to space technology. It's changing how we think about space. Being able to gather, understand, and use lots of data has helped us get to know the universe better and has changed how we explore and move through space...
 
GRID-based Virtual Observatory VIRGO.UA 
VO VIRGO.UA for cosmology and astrophysics is a segment of VO «Infrastructure»- a virtual organization, which deals with ensuring the provision of standards for Grid Services for virtual organizations, to ensure reliability functioning of the Ukrainian power grid, Grid training for users and administrators of the Grid sites, as well as the creation of technical conditions UNG for entry into the international grid community...
 
WDC-Ukraine 
WDC-Ukraine is a part of World Data Center System of the International Council of Science (ICSU). Among the basic tasks of WDC-Ukraine there is collection, handling and storage of science data and giving access to it for usage both in science research and study process. That include contemporary tutoring technologies and resources of e-libraries and archives; remote access to own information resources for the wide circle of scientists from the universities and science institutions of Ukraine...
 
IVOA NEWSLETTER
US VAO Data Discovery Portal 
Find datasets from thousands of astronomical collections known to the VO and over wide areas of the sky. This includes important collections from archives around the world. Feedback on your experience with the tool is appreciated -- please send your comments, suggestions, and questions to the VAO Help Desk.
 
US VAO Cross-Comparison Tool 
Perform fast positional cross-matches between an input table of up to 1 million sources and common astronomical source catalogs, such as 2MASS, SDSS DR7 and USNO-B. Feedback on your experience with the tool is appreciated -- please send your comments, suggestions, and questions to the VAO Help Desk.
 
VOPlot v1.8 Beta 
VOPlot v1.8Beta includes many enhancements and bug fixes. To name a few v1.8Beta supports multi-grid plots for 2D Scatter-Plot which allows the user to have multiple plots having grid size from 1x1 to 3x3 in a single window. Paginated view is added to see data in tabular format which allows user to navigate systematically. Provision to label Lat/Long lines is also added. Users can now plot a cumulative histogram for all histogram types. VOPlot 1.8Beta shows the metadata of a FITS file instantaneously while the actual loading happens in background. VOPlot v1.8Beta also provides better handling of "faulty data" while parsing an ASCII file.

 Babiy Bogdan Teodorovich 

General data:

21.10.1936 - 12.11.1993

Place of birth: Lodz city, Rzeczpospolita (now the Republic of Poland)

Studied in: Ivan Franko Lviv State University (since 1999 Ivan Franko Lviv National University) (1958);

Key interests: theoretical astronomy, astrophysics, solar physics, theoretical astrophysics, theoretical physics. PhD Thesis: Profiles of weak Frauniffer lines of the solar spectrum, (1965 );


Biography:

He was born October 21, 1936, in the Lodz city of the Commonwealth of the Rhine (now the Republic of Poland).

In 1958 he graduated from Ivan Franko Lviv State University.

In 1961 he graduated from the postgraduate study at the Main Astronomical Observatory of the USSR Academy of Sciences (Pulkovo Observatory).

He worked at the Pulkovo Observatory, as well as at the Astronomical Observatory of Kyiv University.

Since 1961 to 1964, he was a research fellow at the Astronomical Observatory of the Ivan Franko State University of Lviv, head of the Department of Physics of the Sun, and since 1964 as an assistant, during 1966-1993 he was Associate Professor of the Department of Theoretical Physics of Lviv University.

He was one of the initiators of the restoration of the Department of Astronomy at the Lviv University, which restored its existence only in 1996 with the active assistance of the rector of the university Professor I.O. Vakarchuk.

In the 1960s and 90s, the scientist and his students performed the study of physical conditions in the Sun along the contours of the Fraunhofer lines, identified the asymmetry of the photospheric lines, the influence of the magnetic field on the equivalent widths of the sunspot lines, the dependence of the average brightness of the chromosphere grid on the cycles of solar activity, and the content a number of chemical elements.

In 1965 he defended his Ph.D. thesis "Profiles of weak Frauniffer lines of the solar spectrum".

In 1966 the astrophysicist received the title of associate professor.

In 1990 he became a laureate of Barabashov awards the Academy of Sciences of the USSR.

November 12, 1993, Lviv city scientist died.

His research papers relate to the physics of the Sun, in particular the theory of radiation transitions, frahungfer lines in the solar spectrum and the chemical composition of the Sun. Finding the asymmetry of the absorption line profiles in the center of the disc of the Sun. He is the author of more than 100 scientific works.
