TABLE supercos

The SUPERCOS table contains galaxies selected from SuperCOSMOS scans of UKST plates.

This table contains galaxies at |b| > 20 with Bj < 16.75 or R < 15.6.
The programme ID numbers (progid in the target table) for the Bj and R
selected surveys are 8 and 7 respectively.

Required constraints:
Primary key is (targetid)

Name Type Length Unit Description Default Value Unified Content Descriptor

OBJID int 4 unique ID number

CATNAME varchar 15 supplied catalogue name

TARGETNAME varchar 15 matching name in target table, used to name FITS files and generate thumbnail images

TARGETID bigint 8 matching ID number in target

RA float 8 degrees RA J2000

DEC float 8 degrees Dec J2000

PRIORITY smallint 2 survey weight

MAG_1 real 4 mag Bj mag, SuperCOSMOS magnitudes generated from a revised calibration , done at the time of input catalogue preparation, tuned to the mag range of interest.

PROGID smallint 2 programme ID
