- SIMBAD/NED caches were updated. Please try to Match-up AKARI catalogues with Cached SIMBAD/NED catalogs.
April 19, 2019

January 04, 2018
- The PostgreSQL server was updated to version9.6.
-
The database for AKARI CAS was restructured into multiple databases.
The 'cas' database is available as a new database instead of 'DR1'.
Due to the reconfiguration of the database, the name of some tables and views had changed. If you keep the previously created SQL and want to use again, please do substitution of the name. And also, the usage of some functions had changed.
The correspondence between the new name and the old name is written in Tables and Views. In Functions, please specify the catalogue names ('akari_fis_bsc_1' or 'akari_irc_psc_1') instead of the instrument ('Fis' or 'Irc'). We appreciate in your inconvenience.
April 3, 2011
- SIMBAD/NED caches were updated. SIMBAD magnitudes at U,B,V,R,I,J,H and K-band are added to the CAS database.
- 2MASS point source catalog is implemented in the CAS database.
Fast radial/rectangular searches of 2MASS catalog are available in our
SQL Search page
by commands like the followings:
-- Radial Search (J2000) SELECT o.*, n.distance FROM fGetNearbyObjEq('Twomass', 182.045, 2.8797, 10.0) n, Twomass o WHERE n.objID = o.objID ORDER BY n.distance
Explore Tool also supports 2MASS objects.-- Rectangular Search (J2000) SELECT o.* FROM fGetObjFromRectEq('Twomass', -1,1, -0.2,0.2) n, Twomass o WHERE n.objID = o.objID
August 28, 2010
- FAQ page was added.
June 16, 2010
- New search tool `Match-up with SIMBAD/NED'.
We did cross-identifications between AKARI objects and SIMBAD/NED objects, and the results were registered into CAS database. You can easily obtain AKARI catalogues joined to cached catalogs stored in SIMBAD/NED such as HD, MACHO, 2MASS, NGC, SDSS, etc.
May 19, 2010
- New local tool `queryakari'.
Dr. Norio Ikeda contributed new local query tool for IDL environment. You can download and try it. - IRAS-PSC, IRAS-FSC and RC3 catalogs were registered into CAS database.
You can easily try dynamic cross-identifications of AKARI objects with IRAS and RC3 catalogs. Use some examples in `CrossID' of SQL Search page. The definitions of IRAS and RC3 tables are found in Tables Page. All J2000 positions of registered RC3 catalog were updated using NED service. The crossID of RC3 objects with AKARI objects shows that 8165 FIS objects and 1209 IRC objects are found in RC3 catalog. (Search radius is 1arcmin) - Explore Tool supported IRAS and RC3 objects.
- CrossID page supported cross-identification of both FIS and IRC objects at a time.
- Radial Search page and Explore Tool supported NED name resolver.
- Links to AKARI-CAS Explore Tool are appended in SDSS Explore Tool.
