Auger

The Pierre Auger Observatory is the world's largest Cosmic Ray detector, located in Malargue, Argentina. It is used to study the extremely rare ultrahigh energy cosmic rays, whose energies are 106 - 108 times larger than the highest energies achieved in human accelerators.


SDSS

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey is mapping one quarter of the of sky with unprecedented depth, wavelength coverage, and spectroscopic follow up.


SENECA

SENECA is a cosmic ray air shower simulation code, which uses cascade equations to speed up the computation.


Automated Astrometry

We are building an "astrometry engine" to create correct, standards-based astrometric headers for every useful astronomical image ever taken, past and future, in any state of archival disarray.


NY Schools Cosmic Particle Telescope

The New York Schools Cosmic Particle Telescope Project aims to create a next-generation astrophysical observatory in New York City, distributed among hundreds or thousands of schools and other sites.
