Northern Sky Narrowband Survey

The Northern Sky Narrowband Survey maps the entire northern hemisphere down to a declination of -16° in the light of the emission lines H-alpha (656.3 nm), [OIII] (500.7 nm) and [SII] (671.7 nm and 673.0 nm). The usable angular resolution (FWHM of a point source) is about 10 arcseconds.

There is also a continuum survey from the same instrument. HIPSes from that, and compositions with the narrow line surveys, are available from ivo://org.gavo.dc/nsns/cont.

The Northern Sky Narrowband Survey maps the entire northern hemisphere down to a declination of -16° at an angular resolution of about 10 arcsec.

Estimated variance (square noise) of SII (HiPS simg.de/P/NSNS/DR0_2/sii) normalized to 30" pixels. Use these data to assess the accuracy of the continuum-subtracted SII, which is mainly determined by photon noise, whether from the signal of interest or from contamination.

SII at 671.7 nm and 673.0 nm (without continuum) as compressed 8-bit HIPS for easy visualization. See http://www.simg.de/nebulae3/dr0_2 for other data sets.

H-alpha (without continuum, mapped to red), blue continuum (mapped to green) and red continuum (mapped to blue) as compressed 8-bit color HIPS for easy visualization. Stars are partially subtracted to make the faint reflection nebulae visible. See http://www.simg.de/nebulae3/dr0_2 for other data sets.
