Zusammenfassung: | ABSTRACT
We constructed a far-ultraviolet (FUV) all-sky map based on observations from the Far Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph (FIMS) aboard the Korean microsatellite Science and Technology SATellite-1. For the ${\sim}20{{\ \rm per\ cent}}$ of the sky not covered by FIMS observations, predictions from a deep artificial neural network were used. Seven data sets were chosen for input parameters, including five all-sky maps of H α, E(B − V), N(H i), and two X-ray bands, with Galactic longitudes and latitudes. 70 ${{\ \rm per\ cent}}$ of the pixels of the observed FIMS data set were randomly selected for training as target parameters and the remaining 30 ${{\ \rm per\ cent}}$ were used for validation. A simple four-layer neural network architecture, which consisted of three convolution layers and a dense layer at the end, was adopted, with an individual activation function for each convolution layer; each convolution layer was followed by a dropout layer. The predicted FUV intensities exhibited good agreement with Galaxy Evolution Explorer observations made in a similar FUV wavelength band for high Galactic latitudes. As a sample application of the constructed map, a dust scattering simulation was conducted with model optical parameters and a Galactic dust model for a region that included observed and predicted pixels. Overall, FUV intensities in the observed and predicted regions were reproduced well. |
