Abstract. The Virtual Observatory (VO) is opening up new ways of exploiting the huge amount of data provided by the ever growing number of ground-based and space facilities. Using VOSpec, a multi-wavelength spectral analysis tool developed by the ESA-VO Team at ESAC, and new developments on scripting with VOSpec (VOScript), we have started to undertake a comprehensive study of spectroscopic and photometric data in the VO on Herbig Ae/Be stars. By studying line strengths, variabilities and spectral energy distributions, from the X-ray to sub-millimeter ranges, we aim to gain insights into processes and disk properties of a large sample of these objects. This paper presents initial findings of the spectroscopic analysis and initial spectral energy distribution classifications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
