Well, they could be bedding down on Pluto as we speak, having scooted in with the warp drive. They're probably wondering if we'd spotted them. :-)

Oh Oh.. Mike, I think you made them angry -_-

Some more nice images showing

Some more nice images showing a mosaic of 86 result files ==> 860.000 points (yes, TopCat can handle that easily!).

First, here's a visualization of column 5 (the one that is used to pick the 10000 "best" candidates form a result:

And the same visualizing column 8, in two different "projections" of sky coordinates

It looks also nice if you are using the "Spindown" (rate of frequency decline of candidate) to color the datapoints, revealing that that surviving candidates in the "south" of the covered sky region are almost exclusively those having a a small spindown (absolute value).

They're giving us Rorschach

They're giving us Rorschach Tests now! :-)

We're getting :

H-bomb blooms,

Whoops I've spilled the bowl of custard,

Solitons / tidal bores and

Low trajectory asteroid impact ejecta ..... :-)

Cheers, Mike.

Hello!

In S5R3 result file was five columns, in S5R4 file - nine. If I "reduce" file to five columns, I get a right data? :)

Thank you!

Yes,the first five columns in S5R4 results still have the same meaning as in S5R3.

What mean of another four columns in S5R5 result file?
I like similar science-pictures. :)

I plan to write a detailed article here about what the app is actually doing (in a wekk or two), it will be easier to describe the result fields in the context of that article. For now I can say that the first two extra fields are again sky-coordinates (right ascension and declination in radiens) which are part of a finer sub-grid. So they will always be close to the sky coordinates in the columns 2 and 3 and do net add much for the visualization "experience". The last two columns are statistical metrics where high values represent more interesting candidates than low values. The second to last column (col 8) seems to be the more significant metric of those two and makes a good basis for visualization and was in fact used for the last couple of diagrams in this thread.
