ClumpScope: Hunt Star-Forming Clumps in Euclid Maps

Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A citizen-science classifier asks people to inspect Euclid Hα maps, mark star-forming clumps, and help astronomers verify an automated catalogue.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-29 issue.

Field notes

The classifier combines Hα maps with additional line maps and two photometric views, letting participants compare emission with the galaxy's underlying starlight. Its tutorial distinguishes genuine knots from scattered noise and diagonal spectral contamination, then asks users to record quality and draw candidate clumps. The page cites 1,292 galaxies in the interface, spanning redshifts 0.3–1 in the COSMOS field, and exposes CSV outputs for classifications, marks, consensus results, and machine-learning labels.
