The Variability table contains statistics from the set of observations of each source. At present, the mean ra and dec and the error in two tangential directions are calculated. The "ra" direction is defined as tangential to both the radial direction and the cartesian z-axis and the "dec" direction is defined as both the radial direction and the "ra" direction. Since the current model is just the mean and standard deviation of the data, then the chi-squared of the fit=1. Data from good frames across all bands go into the astrometric model determination. This will include bands in non-synoptic filters: the one observation in these bands can help. In future releases a fit will be made to the rms data as a function of magnitude in each band, as has already happened for photometric data and a motion model that incorporates proper motion (and possibly parallax) will be used. The motion model is a parameter in the VarFrameSetInfo table. |

STAT_PROP |
Individual detection classifications are combined in the source merging process to produce a set of attributes for each merged source as follows. Presently, a basic classification table is defined that assigns reasonably accurate, self-consistent probability values for a given classification code: Flag | Meaning | Probability (%) | | | Star | Galaxy | Noise | Saturated | -9 | Saturated | 0.0 | 0.0 | 5.0 | 95.0 | -3 | Probable galaxy | 25.0 | 70.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | -2 | Probable star | 70.0 | 25.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | -1 | Star | 90.0 | 5.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | 0 | Noise | 5.0 | 5.0 | 90.0 | 0.0 | +1 | Galaxy | 5.0 | 90.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | Then, each separately available classification is combined for a merged source using Bayesian classification rules, assuming each datum is independent: P(classk)=ΠiP(classk)i / ΣkΠiP(classk)i where classk is one of star|galaxy|noise|saturated, and i denotes the ith single detection passband measurement available (the non-zero entries are necessary for the independent measures method to work, since some cases might otherwise be mutually exclusive). For example, if an object is classed in J|H|K as -1|-2|+1 it would have merged classification probabilities of pStar=73.5%, pGalaxy=26.2%, pNoise=0.3% and pSaturated=0.0%. Decision thresholds for the resulting discrete classification flag mergedClass are 90% for definitive and 70% for probable; hence the above example would be classified (not unreasonably) as probably a star (mergedClass=-2). An additional decision rule enforces mergedClass=-9 (saturated) when any individual classification flag indicates saturation. |

Photometric quality flag. Four character flag, one character per band [W1/W2/W3/W4], that provides a shorthand summary of the quality of the profile-fit photometry measurement in each band, as derived from the measurement signal-to-noise ratio. |
varchar |

|
|
- A - Source is detected in this band with a flux signal-to-noise ratio w?snr>10.
- B - Source is detected in this band with a flux signal-to-noise ratio 3<w?snr<10.
- C - Source is detected in this band with a flux signal-to-noise ratio 2<w?snr<3.
- U - Upper limit on magnitude. Source measurement has w?snr<2. The profile-fit magnitude w?mpro is a 95% confidence upper limit.
- X - A profile-fit measurement was not possible at this location in this band. The value of w?mpro and w?sigmpro will be "null" in this band.
- Z - A profile-fit source flux measurement was made at this location, but the flux uncertainty could not be measured. The value of w?sigmpro will be "null" in this band. The value of w?mpro will be "null" if the measured flux, w?flux, is negative, but will not be "null" if the flux is positive. If a non-null magnitude is present, it corresponds to the true flux, and not the 95% confidence upper limit. This occurs for a small number of sources found in a narrow range of ecliptic longitude which were covered by a large number of saturated pixels from 3-Band Cryo single-exposures.

These ZPs are appropriate for generating magnitudes in the natural detector+filter system based on Vega, see CASU reports for more details on colour equations etc. The ZPs have been derived from a robust average of all photometric standards observed on any particular set of frames, corrected for airmass but assuming the default extinction values listed later. For other airmass or other values of the extinction use ZP → ZP - [sec(z)-1]×extinct + extinct default - extinct You can then make use of any of the assorted flux estimators to produce magnitudes via Mag = ZP - 2.5*log10(flux/exptime) - aperCor - skyCorr Note that for the so-called total and isophotal flux options it is not possible to have a single-valued aperture correction. |

allwise_sc2 |
WISE |
This is a five character string that encodes information about factors that impact the accuracy of the motion estimation. These include the original blend count, whether a blend-swap took place, and the distance in hundredths of an arcsecond between the non-motion position and the motion mean-observation-epoch position. This column is null if a motion solution was not attempted or a valid solution was not found. |
varchar |
5 |
|
|
|
The format is NQDDD where N is the original blend count, Q is either "Y" or "N" for "yes" or "no" a blend-swap occurred (i.e., the original primary component was not the final primary component), and DDD is the radial distance between the non-motion and motion at mean-observation epoch positions in units of 0.01 arcsec, clipped at 999 (almost 10 arcsec). For example, a well-behaved source that is not part of a blend and that has similar stationary and motion fit positions would have a pmcode value like "1N008". A source with a questionable motion estimate that is passively deblended (nb=2) and whose stationary-fit and motion position differ by a significant amount would have a pmcode value like "3Y234". |

The Chi² probability (based on the null hypothesis) that the source as detected by the PN camera is constant. The Pearson approximation to Chi² for Poissonian data was used, in which the model is used as the estimator of its own variance . If more than one exposure (that is, time series) is available for this source the smallest value of probability was used. |

STAT_PROP |
Individual detection classifications are combined in the source merging process to produce a set of attributes for each merged source as follows. Presently, a basic classification table is defined that assigns reasonably accurate, self-consistent probability values for a given classification code: Flag | Meaning | Probability (%) | | | Star | Galaxy | Noise | Saturated | -9 | Saturated | 0.0 | 0.0 | 5.0 | 95.0 | -3 | Probable galaxy | 25.0 | 70.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | -2 | Probable star | 70.0 | 25.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | -1 | Star | 90.0 | 5.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | 0 | Noise | 5.0 | 5.0 | 90.0 | 0.0 | +1 | Galaxy | 5.0 | 90.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | Then, each separately available classification is combined for a merged source using Bayesian classification rules, assuming each datum is independent: P(classk)=ΠiP(classk)i / ΣkΠiP(classk)i where classk is one of star|galaxy|noise|saturated, and i denotes the ith single detection passband measurement available (the non-zero entries are necessary for the independent measures method to work, since some cases might otherwise be mutually exclusive). For example, if an object is classed in J|H|K as -1|-2|+1 it would have merged classification probabilities of pStar=73.5%, pGalaxy=26.2%, pNoise=0.3% and pSaturated=0.0%. Decision thresholds for the resulting discrete classification flag mergedClass are 90% for definitive and 70% for probable; hence the above example would be classified (not unreasonably) as probably a star (mergedClass=-2). An additional decision rule enforces mergedClass=-9 (saturated) when any individual classification flag indicates saturation. |

Because of the spacing of the detectors in WFCAM, and the restrictions on guide star brightness, there will always be overlap regions between adjacent frame sets. Source merging is done on a set-by-set basis; hence after source merging there are usually a small number of duplicate sources in the table. A process known as seaming takes place after source merging is complete, whereby duplicates are identified and flagged. The flagging attribute is priOrSec, and the meaning of the flag is quite simple: if a source is not found to be duplicated in overlap regions, then priOrSec=0; if a source is duplicated, then priOrSec will be set to the frameSetID of the source that should be considered the best one to use out of the set of duplicates. Presently, the choice of which is best is made on the basis of proximity to the optical axis of the camera, the assumption being that this will give the best quality image in general. So, if a particular source has a non-zero priOrSec that is set to it's own value of frameSetID, then this indicates that there is a duplicate elsewhere in the table, but this is the one that should be selected as the best (i.e. this is the primary source). On the other hand, if a source has a non-zero value of priOrSec that is set a different frameSetID than that of the source in question, then this indicates that this source should be considered as a secondary duplicate of a source who's primary is actually to be found in the frame set pointed to by that value of frameSetID. Hence, the WHERE clause for selecting out a seamless, best catalogue is of the form WHERE ... AND (priOrSec=0 OR priOrSec=frameSetID). |

Individual detection classifications are combined in the source merging process to produce a set of attributes for each merged source as follows. Presently, a basic classification table is defined that assigns reasonably accurate, self-consistent probability values for a given classification code: Flag | Meaning | Probability (%) | | | Star | Galaxy | Noise | Saturated | -9 | Saturated | 0.0 | 0.0 | 5.0 | 95.0 | -3 | Probable galaxy | 25.0 | 70.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | -2 | Probable star | 70.0 | 25.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | -1 | Star | 90.0 | 5.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | 0 | Noise | 5.0 | 5.0 | 90.0 | 0.0 | +1 | Galaxy | 5.0 | 90.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | Then, each separately available classification is combined for a merged source using Bayesian classification rules, assuming each datum is independent: P(classk)=ΠiP(classk)i / ΣkΠiP(classk)i where classk is one of star|galaxy|noise|saturated, and i denotes the ith single detection passband measurement available (the non-zero entries are necessary for the independent measures method to work, since some cases might otherwise be mutually exclusive). For example, if an object is classed in J|H|K as -1|-2|+1 it would have merged classification probabilities of pStar=73.5%, pGalaxy=26.2%, pNoise=0.3% and pSaturated=0.0%. Decision thresholds for the resulting discrete classification flag mergedClass are 90% for definitive and 70% for probable; hence the above example would be classified (not unreasonably) as probably a star (mergedClass=-2). An additional decision rule enforces mergedClass=-9 (saturated) when any individual classification flag indicates saturation. |

STAT_PROP |
Individual detection classifications are combined in the source merging process to produce a set of attributes for each merged source as follows. Presently, a basic classification table is defined that assigns reasonably accurate, self-consistent probability values for a given classification code: Flag | Meaning | Probability (%) | | | Star | Galaxy | Noise | Saturated | -9 | Saturated | 0.0 | 0.0 | 5.0 | 95.0 | -3 | Probable galaxy | 25.0 | 70.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | -2 | Probable star | 70.0 | 25.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | -1 | Star | 90.0 | 5.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | 0 | Noise | 5.0 | 5.0 | 90.0 | 0.0 | +1 | Galaxy | 5.0 | 90.0 | 5.0 | 0.0 | Then, each separately available classification is combined for a merged source using Bayesian classification rules, assuming each datum is independent: P(classk)=ΠiP(classk)i / ΣkΠiP(classk)i where classk is one of star|galaxy|noise|saturated, and i denotes the ith single detection passband measurement available (the non-zero entries are necessary for the independent measures method to work, since some cases might otherwise be mutually exclusive). For example, if an object is classed in J|H|K as -1|-2|+1 it would have merged classification probabilities of pStar=73.5%, pGalaxy=26.2%, pNoise=0.3% and pSaturated=0.0%. Decision thresholds for the resulting discrete classification flag mergedClass are 90% for definitive and 70% for probable; hence the above example would be classified (not unreasonably) as probably a star (mergedClass=-2). An additional decision rule enforces mergedClass=-9 (saturated) when any individual classification flag indicates saturation. |
