Tables for: The Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury XXI. The Legacy Resolved Stellar Photometry Catalog

<p>This deposit contains the full machine-readable tables for the accepted version of the manuscript, &quot;<em>The Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury XXI. The Legacy Resolved Stellar Photometry Catalog</em>&quot;, submitted and accepted to the Astrophysical Journal Supplments.&nbsp;</p> <p>The specific files included in this deposit are the full version of Tables 1-3 in this manuscript:</p> <ul> <li>Table 1:&nbsp;Simplified table of PHAT photometry for easy use;</li> <li>Table 2:&nbsp;Simplified table of artificial star test results for easy use;</li> <li>Table 3:&nbsp;Summary of artificial star statistics as a function of brightness and stellar density.</li> </ul> <p>The *.txt files are formatted according to the machine-readable standards adopted by the AAS Journals and CDS/Vizier. Documentation of this format can be found at these links:</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://journals.aas.org/mrt-overview/">AAS Journals MRT overview</a></li> <li><a href="http://vizier.u-strasbg.fr/doc/catstd.htx">CDS/Vizier standards</a></li> </ul> <p>These files can be read in python using the astropy package or with the most recent version of <a href="https://www.star.bris.ac.uk/~mbt/topcat/">TOPCAT</a> (&gt; Version 4.8). An example script for reading these files in astropy is given here:</p> <pre><code class="language-python"> from astropy.table import Table data = Table.read("datafile3.txt", format="ascii.cds") </code></pre> <p>In addition, a headerless, compressed TeX&nbsp;(&amp;-delimited;&nbsp;&quot;full_table.tex.xz&quot;) version of Table 1, and a header-only, dataless version of Table 1 (&quot;datafile1_headeronly.txt&quot;)&nbsp;are provided to give users additional tools for dealing with this large dataset.&nbsp;</p> <p>The compression routine was applied using xz &lt;https://tukaani.org/xz/&gt; with the encodings</p> <ul> <li> <p><code>xz -z -7 -T 0 full_table.tex</code></p> </li> <li> <p><code>xz -z -9 -T 0 datafile1.txt</code></p> </li> </ul> <p>The Table 1 files&nbsp;on Zenodo were then split into smaller chunks to upload them to Zenodo using the GNU <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/split-invocation.html"><code>split</code></a> routine. The full files can be recovered by recombining them before decompressing them. The list of related commands and the expected md5 hexidecimal checksums are given here:</p> <ul> <li> <p><code>split --bytes=512M ../full_table.tex.xz full_table.tex.xz.</code></p> </li> <li> <p><code>split --bytes=512M ../datafile1.txt.xz datafile1.txt.xz.</code></p> </li> <li> <p><code>cat full_table.tex.xz.a* &gt; full_table.tex.xz</code></p> </li> <li> <p><code>cat datafile1.txt.xz.a* &gt; datafile1.txt.xz</code></p> </li> <li> <p><code>MD5 (full_table.tex.xz) = 7f9195210bec61c08d04926ada4a021a</code></p> </li> <li> <p><code>MD5 (datafile1.txt.xz) = 63205fe1051e97f4e04380dd23469893</code></p> </li> </ul> <p>Finally,&nbsp;those interested in generating their own cuts from the DOLPHOT quality parameters can access the full photometry tables, available at MAST as a High Level Science Product via <a href="https://doi.org/10.17909/T91S30">doi.org/10.17909/T91S30</a></p>
