Tunable parameter, the default is to set this to 1.5 skynoise as a compromise between detecting close to the limit of the data and not being swamped by spurious sources. It is possible to push the data limit fainter but at the expense of a large increase in spurious sources. LSBG detection requires a more subtle add-on to the catalogue and could be added given suitable demand.

tmass_key allwise_sc2 WISE 2MASS PSC association. Unique identifier of the closest source in the 2MASS Point Source Catalog (PSC) that falls within 3" of the non-motion fit position of this WISE source. This is equivalent to the pts_key in the 2MASS PSC entry. This column is "null" if there is no 2MASS PSC source within 3" of the WISE source position. The number of 2MASS PSC sources within 3" of the WISE position is given in n_2mass. CAUTION - 2MASS source information included in the WISE source record is an association not an identification. Although the position accuracies of the two Catalogs are good, there is a non-zero probability of chance associations between physically unrelated objects, as well as missed associations between the Catalogs. You should always confirm associations by reviewing the entries from both Catalogs. int 4
