June 30, 2010 Nanning, Guangxi NAOC and Steward Observatory of UA The South Galactic Cap U-band Sky Survey with Bok 2.3m Telescope Fan Zhou (NAOC)
Why do we need the survey? 1.To supply the input source catalogue for LAMOST; 2.To classify of the stars, galaxies, AGN and quasars in the south Galactic cap region with the color-color diagram; 3.To detect the red shift z<3 quasar candidates combining the photometry in other bands; 4.To estimate the red shift of the galaxies with PhotoZ combining the photometry in other bands; 5.To find out some starburst galaxies candidates; 6.It can help us estimate the metallicity of the stellar populations in the galaxies; 7.To identify the type of the stars in the color-color diagram combining the photometry in other bands, which can help us the control the completeness of the star type for the LAMOST observations; 8.It can be helpful for the flux calibration of the LAMOST spectra.
