Virgo-Millennium load dialogue with an example query on the milli-Millennium database
This dialogue, selected from the
Load Window's toolbar
button () or the main VO menu,
permits direct SQL queries to a family of services
hosting cosmological simulation databases.
These services were originally developed by
GAVO,
the German Astrophysical Virtual Observatory,
and hold results from the Millennium, Virgo and EAGLE simulations.
Options are currently available to query services from
MPA Garching
and
Durham.
To make a query, fill in the fields as required:

)
http://virgodb.dur.ac.uk:8080/MyMillennium
)
http://virgodb.dur.ac.uk:8080/Eagle
)
The HaloSamples and GalaxySamples menus provide some examples of queries on the Milli-Millennium database (these have been copied from the GAVO query page). If you select one of these the SQL Query panel will be filled in accordingly.
Much more documentation, including tutorials, descriptions of the database schemas, and information about registering for use of the authenticated services, is available online. The MPA-Garching services are documented at http://gavo.mpa-garching.mpg.de/Millennium/Help, and the Durham services at http://virgodb.dur.ac.uk/.
