RA twoxmm, twoxmm_v1_2, twoxmmi_dr3_v1_0, xmm3dr4 XMM Corrected Right Ascension of the detection in degrees (J2000) after statistical correlation of the emldetect coordinates, RA_UNC and DEC_UNC, with the USNO B1.0 optical source catalogue using the SAS task eposcorr. In case where the cross-correlation is determined to be unreliable no correction is applied and this value is therefore the same as RA_UNC. float 8 degrees

Celestial Right Ascension as computed in the processing pipeline, accurate to of order 0.1 arcsec.
Note that original catalogue data has only r*4 storage precision, accurate only to ≈ 50mas. RA and Dec in the database are derived more precisely from WCS in the header and x and y attributes.

ra calVariability WSACalib Mean Right Ascension float 8 Degrees   POS_EQ_RA_MAIN
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.

rel allwise_sc2 WISE Small-separation, same-Tile (SSST) detection flag. Non-null values of this flag indicate that this Catalog/Reject Table entry is part of a group of detections with unphysically small separations that were extracted on the same Tile. SSST groups occurred when a faint, often spurious noise detection was shifted towards the position of a brighter nearby source during the chi-squared minimization profile-fit source extraction process. This resulted in two or more extractions on the same Tile that have nearly the same position and similar fluxes. SSST groups were identified and classified using the rel flag, and the classifications are used as part of Catalog source selection. varchar 1      
The possible values of the rel column are:
  • null - The extraction is not part of a SSST group, and is eligible for the AllWISE Catalog.
  • s - The extraction is part of an SSST group, and is the original, correct extraction that is eligible for the AllWISE Catalog.
  • c - The extraction is part of an SSST group amd is the original, correct extraction, but is inadvertantly flagged as a spurious artifact. It is eligible for inclusion in the AllWISE Catalog.
  • r - The extraction is part of an SSST group, but is the least reliable extraction in the group. It is not eligible for the Catalog. These are found only in the AllWISE Reject Table.
