PSP FIELDS Digital Fields Board (DFB) DC-coupled Differential Voltage, V1-V2 Antennae, Dipole Mode, Spectra, High Gain, Sensor coordinates, Level 2 (L2), 6.99054 s Data

PSP FIELDS Digital Fields Board, DFB, dV12hg data:The DFB is the low frequency, less than 75 kHz, component of the FIELDS experiment on the Parker Solar Probe spacecraft, see reference [1] below. For a full description of the FIELDS experiment, see reference [2]. For a description of the DFB, see reference [3].DFB DC spectra data consist of power spectral densities as a function of frequency and time. These spectra are averaged over both frequency and time as described in [3]. The spectra have pseudo-logarithmically spaced frequency bins with the bin central frequencies reported in the metadata.The Level 2 data products contained in this data file have been calibrated for:* 1) The Hanning window used in the spectral calculation* 2) DFB in-band gain* 3) DFB analog filter gain response* 4) DFB digital filter gain response* 5) The search coil preamplifier response, when applicable* 6) The bandwidth of each spectral binNote that compensation for the DFB digital filters will introduce a non-physical positively sloped power trend at high frequencies when the non-corrected signal is dominated by noise. This effect should be examined carefully when determining spectral slopes and features at the highest frequencies. Calibrations for the FIELDS preamplifiers have not been implemented as the preamplifier response is flat and equal to one through the DFB frequency range. Corrections for plasma sheath impedance gain and antenna effective length have not been applied to voltage sensor signals. These corrections will be applied in the Level 3 DFB data products. Therefore, all voltage sensor quantities when present in these Level 2 data products are expressed by using units of Volts squared per Hertz. Likewise, all magnetic field quantities when present in these Level 2 data product are expressed by using units of nanoTesla squared per Hertz.The Level 2 data products contained in this data file are expressed in sensor coordinates: e.g. dV12, dV34 for voltage measurements. For solar orbits 1 and 2, the search coil magnetometer spectral data are rotated into a non-intuitive coordinate system with components [d,e,f]. For solar orbits 3 and beyond, the magnetic field spectral data are in expressed in search coil magnetometer sensor coordinates with components [u,v,w].To rotate from [d,e,f] coordinates into [u,v,w] search coil sensor coordinates, use the following matrix, written in IDL notation, and the following equation: spectra_uvw_vector = R ## spectra_def_vector.R = [[ 0.46834856, -0.81336422 , 0.34509170] [ -0.66921924, -0.071546954, 0.73961249] [ -0.57688408, -0.57733845 , -0.57782790]]The time resolution of the DFB DC spectral data can vary by multiples of 2^N. During encounter when PSP is within 0.25 AU of the Sun, the DFB DC spectra data cadence is typically 30 NYseconds NYsecond [2]. Timestamps correspond to the center time of each window.References:* 1) Fox, N.J., Velli, M.C., Bale, S.D. et al., Space Sci Rev (2016) 204:7. https://doi.org/10.1007/s1121401502116* 2) Bale, S.D., Goetz, K., Harvey, P.R. et al., Space Sci Rev (2016) 204:49. https://doi.org/10.1007/s1121401602445* 3) Malaspina, D.M., Ergun, R.E., Bolton, M. et al., JGR Space Physics (2016), 121, 5088-5096. https://doi.org/10.1002/2016JA022344

One method for accomplishing this is presented in reference [4].Time resolution of the DFB DC cross spectral data can vary by multiples of 2^N. During encounter (when PSP is within 0.25 AU of the Sun), cadence for the DFB DC cross spectra is typically 30 NYseconds [2].

Sloan Digital Sky Survey DR6 Galaxy Clusters Catalog

Clusters of galaxies in most of the previous catalogs have redshifts z <= 0.3. Using the photometric redshifts of galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 6 (SDSS DR6), the authors identify 39,716 clusters in the redshift range 0.05 < z < 0.6 with more than eight luminous (M_r <= -21) member galaxies. Cluster redshifts are estimated accurately with an uncertainty of less than 0.022. The contamination rate of member galaxies is found to be roughly 20%, and the completeness of member galaxy detection reaches ~90%. Monte Carlo simulations show that the cluster detection rate is more than 90% for massive (M_200 > 2 x 1014 M_sun, where M_200 is the total mass within the radius in which the mean mass density is 200 times the critical cosmic mass density) clusters of z <= 0.42. The false detection rate is ~5%. The authors obtain the richness, the summed luminosity, and the gross galaxy number within the determined radius for identified clusters. They are tightly related to the X-ray luminosity and temperature of the clusters. Cluster mass is related to the richness and summed luminosity with M_200 ~ R(1.90+/-0.04) and M_200 ~ L_r(1.64+/-0.03), respectively. In addition, 790 new candidate X-ray clusters are found by cross-identification of these clusters with the source list of the ROSAT X-ray All-Sky Survey. This table was created by the HEASARC in August 2009 based on electronic versions of Tables 1 and 2 from the paper which were obtained from the Astrophysical Journal web site.

For a full description of the FIELDS experiment, see reference [2]. For a description of the DFB, see reference [3].DFB burst waveform data consist of short bursts of time-series data from various FIELDS sensors. These data have been filtered by both analog and digital filters [3]. These data are pre-sorted by onboard competitive selection algorithms described in [3] before storage by FIELDS.

Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Catalog (Twelfth Data Release: DR12Q)

This table contains the Data Release 12 Quasar Catalog (DR12Q) from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III (SDSS-III). This catalog includes all SDSS-III/BOSS objects that were spectroscopically targeted as quasar candidates during the full survey and that are confirmed as quasars via visual inspection of the spectra, have luminosities M_i_[z=2] < -20.5 (in a LambdaCDM cosmology with H0 = 70 km/s/Mpc, OmegaM = 0.3, and OmegaLambda = 0.7), and either display at least one emission line with a full width at half maximum (FWHM) larger than 500 km/s or, if not, have interesting/complex absorption features. The catalog also includes previously known quasars (mostly from SDSS-I and II) that were re-observed by BOSS. The catalog contains 297,301 quasars (272,026 are new discoveries since the beginning of SDSS-III) detected over 9376 deg2 with robust identification and redshift measured by a combination of principal component eigenspectra. The number of quasars with z > 2.15 (184,101, of which 167,742 are new discoveries) is about an order of magnitude greater than the number of z > 2.15 quasars known prior to BOSS. Redshifts and FWHMs are provided for the strongest emission lines (C IV, C III], Mg II). The catalog identifies 29,580 broad absorption line quasars and their characteristics are listed in the file dr12qbal.dat that is available at the CDS (<a href="http://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/ftp/cats/VII/279/">http://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/ftp/cats/VII/279/</a>). For each object, the catalog presents five-band (u, g, r, i, z) CCD-based photometry with typical accuracy of 0.03 mag together with some information on the optical morphology and the selection criteria. When available, the catalog also provides information on the optical variability of quasars using SDSS and Palomar Transient Factory multi-epoch photometry. The catalog also contains X-ray, ultraviolet, near-infrared, and radio emission properties of the quasars, when available, from other large-area surveys. The calibrated digital spectra, covering the wavelength region 3600-10,500 Angstrom at a spectral resolution in the range 1300 < R < 2500, can be retrieved from the SDSS Catalog Archive Server at <a href="http://www.sdss.org/dr12/data_access/">http://www.sdss.org/dr12/data_access/</a>. In their paper, the authors also provide a supplemental list of an additional 4,841 quasars that have been identified serendipitously outside of the superset defined to derive the main quasar catalog, available as the file dr12qsp.dat that is available at the CDS (<a href="http://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/ftp/cats/VII/279/">http://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/ftp/cats/VII/279/</a>). This table contains the final quasar catalog of the SDSS-III/BOSS survey resulting from five years of observations. The catalog, which the authors call "DR12Q", contains 297,301 quasars, 184,101 of which have z > 2.15. the authors provide robust identification from visual inspection and refined redshift measurements based on the result of a principal component analysis of the spectra. The present catalog contains about 80% more quasars than their previous release (Paris et al., 2014, "DR10Q", <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/VII/270">CDS Cat. VII/270</a>). In SDSS-III, all fluxes in the 5 SDSS bands (u, g, r, i and z) are expressed in terms of "nanomaggies" (nMgy), which are a convenient linear unit. These quantities are related to standard AB magnitudes thus: an object with a flux F given in nMgy has a Pogson magnitude (on the AB scale) m = [22.5 mag] - 2.5*log10(F). A flux of 1 Mgy is therefore close to 3631 Jy, and 1 nMgy = ~3.631 uJy (µJy). This table was updated to DR12Q in July 2017 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/VII/279">CDS Catalog VII/279</a> file dr12q.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

MEaSUREs Greenland Ice Mapping Project (GrIMP) Digital Elevation Model from GeoEye and WorldView Imagery V002

This data set consists of an enhanced resolution digital elevation model (DEM) for the Greenland Ice Sheet, derived from sub-meter resolution, panchromatic stereoscopic imagery collected by the GeoEye-1, WorldView-1, -2, and -3 satellites operated by Maxar Technologies. The DEM was created from in-track image pairs (i.e., both images collected minutes apart along the same orbital pass) and cross-track images (i.e., from different orbits) within the in-track imaging geometry and maximum time separation criteria. The DEM is registered to ATLAS/ICESat-2 L3A Land Ice Height, Version 5 (ATL06, V5) data collected in the summers of 2019 and 2020. See <a href="http://nsidc.org/data/measures/gimp">Greenland Ice Mapping Project (GrIMP)</a> for related data

Sloan Digital Sky Survey Stripe 82 Chandra Source Match Catalog

This table contains some of the data from the latest release of the Stripe 82 X-ray (82X) survey point-source catalog, which currently covers 31.3 deg2 of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Stripe 82 Legacy field. In total, 6,181 unique X-ray sources are significantly detected with XMM-Newton (> 5 sigma) and Chandra (> 4.5 sigma). This 31 deg2 catalog release includes data from XMM-Newton cycle AO 13, which approximately doubled the Stripe 82X survey area. The flux limits of the Stripe 82X survey are 8.7 x 10-16 erg s-1 cm-2, 4.7 x 10-15 erg s-1 cm-2, and 2.1 x 10-15 erg s-1 cm^=2^ in the soft (0.5 - 2.0 keV), hard (2 - 10 keV), and full (0.5 - 10 keV) bands, respectively, with approximate half-area survey flux limits of 5.4 x 10-15 erg s-1 cm-2, 2.9 x 10-14 erg s-1 cm-2, and 1.7 x 10-14 erg s-1 cm-2, respectively. The authors matched the X-ray source lists to available multi-wavelength catalogs, including updated matches to the previous release of the Stripe 82X survey; 88% of the sample is matched to a multi-wavelength counterpart. Due to the wide area of Stripe 82X and rich ancillary multi-wavelength data, including coadded SDSS photometry, mid-infrared WISE coverage, near-infrared coverage from UKIDSS and VISTA Hemisphere Survey (VHS), ultraviolet coverage from GALEX, radio coverage from FIRST, and far-infrared coverage from Herschel, as well as existing ~30% optical spectroscopic completeness, this study is beginning to uncover rare objects, such as obscured high-luminosity active galactic nuclei at high redshift. The Stripe 82X point source catalog is a valuable data set for constraining how this population grows and evolves, as well as for studying how they interact with the galaxies in which they live. The authors derive the XMM-Newton number counts distribution and compare it with their previously reported Chandra log N - log S relations and other X-ray surveys. Throughout this study, the authors adopt a cosmology of H0 = 70 km s-1 Mpc-1, OmegaM = 0.27, and Lambda = 0.73. The XMM-Newton and Chandra X-ray sources were matched with sources in the SDSS, WISE, UKIDSS, VHS, GALEX, FIRST and Herschel databases using the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) method, as discussed in detail in Section 4 of the reference paper. This table contains the list of 1,146 Chandra sources detected in the SDSS Stripe 82. A related table SDSSS82XMM contains the list of 5,220 XMM-Newton sources detected in the SDSS Stripe 82. This table was initially created by the HEASARC in April 2014 based on the machine-readable version of the table ('Properties of SDSS Quasars Detected by Chandra') described in Appendix B1 of the reference paper (LaMassa et al. 2013, MNRAS, 436, 3581) which was obtained from the CDS (their catalog J/MNRAS/436/3581/ file chands82.dat). The present version was created by the HEASARC in January 2017 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/ApJ/817/172">CDS Catalog J/ApJ/817/172</a> file chandra.dat.

For a description of the DFB, see reference [3].The DFB continuous waveform data consist of time series data from various FIELDS sensors. These data have been filtered by both analog and digital filters [3].The Level 2 data products contained in this data file have been calibrated for:* 1) DFB in-band gain* 2) DFB analog filter gain and phase response* 3) DFB digital filter phase response* 4) The search coil preamplifier gain and phase response, when applicableCalibrations for the DFB digital filter gain response have not been implemented, but the required convolution kernel is provided in this file. It was decided not to apply the digital filter gain response calibration to these Level 2 data because the application of the calibrations can introduce non-physical power at high frequencies when the non-corrected signal is dominated by noise. This effect should be examined carefully when determining spectral slopes and features at the highest frequencies. Calibrations for the FIELDS voltage sensor preamplifiers have not been implemented as the preamplifier response is flat and equal to one throughout the DFB frequency range. Corrections for plasma sheath impedance gain and antenna effective length have not been applied to the voltage sensor data. These corrections will be applied in the Level 3 DFB data products. Therefore, all voltage sensor quantities when present in these Level 2 data products are expressed by using units of Volts. Likewise, all magnetic field quantities when present in these Level 2 data products are expressed by using units of nanoTelsas.The Level 2 data products contained in this data file are in spacecraft coordinates (e.g. x,y,z) or in sensor coordinates (e.g. dV12, dV34 for voltage measurements and [u,v,w] for the searchcoil magnetometer.The time resolution of the DFB continuous waveform data can vary by multiples of 2^N. During encounter when PSP is within 0.25 AU of the Sun, the DFB continuous waveform data cadence is typically 256 samples/NYsecond [2].References:* 1) Fox, N.J., Velli, M.C., Bale, S.D. et al., Space Sci Rev (2016) 204:7. https://doi.org/10.1007/s1121401502116* 2) Bale, S.D., Goetz, K., Harvey, P.R. et al., Space Sci Rev (2016) 204:49. https://doi.org/10.1007/s1121401602445* 3) Malaspina, D.M., Ergun, R.E., Bolton, M. et al., JGR Space Physics (2016), 121, 5088-5096. https://doi.org/10.1002/2016JA022344

PSP FIELDS Digital Fields Board (DFB) DC-coupled Differential Voltage, V3-V4 Antennae, Dipole Mode, Bandpass filtered, High Gain, Sensor coordinates, Level 2 (L2), 0.873813 s Data

PSP FIELDS Digital Fields Board, DFB, dV34 data:The DFB is the low frequency, less than 75 kHz, component of the FIELDS experiment on the Parker Solar Probe spacecraft, see reference [1] below. For a full description of the FIELDS experiment, see reference [2]. For a description of the DFB, see reference [3].DFB DC bandpass data consist of peak and average values of the absolute value of bandpassed time series waveform data over a time interval equal to the reporting cadence. The DC bandpass data have the peak response frequency of each bin reported in the metadata. The frequency response curves for these bins are given in [3].The Level 2 data products contained in this data file have been calibrated for:* 1) The ~6.3 dB loss associated with forming the bandpass signal, see reference [3]* 2) DFB in-band gain* 3) The search coil preamplifier response, when applicable* 4) DFB digital filter time delays, the DFB filter time delays become significant in the lowest frequency DC bandpass binsCalibrations for the DFB digital filter gains and analog filter gains have not been implemented as it was determined that these could not be applied accurately to single numerical values representing a broadband signal response and because all bins except the highest frequency bin have a flat gain response equal to one due to these filters. Calibrations for the FIELDS preamplifiers have not been implemented as the preamplifier response is flat and equal to one through the DFB frequency range. Corrections for plasma sheath impedance gain and antenna effective length have not been applied to voltage sensor signals. These corrections will be applied in the Level 3 DFB data products.

During encounter when PSP is within 0.25 AU of the Sun, the DFB DC bandpass filtered data cadence is typically 1 NYsecond [2].

PSP FIELDS Digital Fields Board (DFB) AC-coupled Searchcoil Magnetometer, SCM, Spectra, Low Frequency, High Gain, v-component, Sensor coordinates, Level 2 (L2), 0.873813 s Data

PSP FIELDS Digital Fields Board, DFB, SCMvlfhg data:The DFB is the low frequency, less than 75 kHz, component of the FIELDS experiment on the Parker Solar Probe spacecraft, see reference [1] below. For a full description of the FIELDS experiment, see reference [2]. For a description of the DFB, see reference [3].DFB AC spectra data consist of power spectral densities as a function of frequency and time. These spectra are averaged over both frequency and time as described in [3]. The spectra have pseudo-logarithmically spaced frequency bins with the bin central frequencies reported in the metadata. The AC spectra are duty-cycled such that spectral averaging takes place over the first 1/8 of any given NYsecond when the data cadence is equal to one NYsecond. Less data are averaged by a factor of 2^N for data cadences that are faster than one NYsecond by 2^N. For cadences slower than one NYsecond, the first 1/8 of each NYsecond of data included are averaged together to construct the reported data.The Level 2 data products contained in this data file have been calibrated for:* 1) The Hanning window used in the spectral calculation* 2) DFB in-band gain* 3) DFB analog filter gain response* 4) DFB digital filter gain response* 5) The search coil preamplifier response, when applicable* 6) The bandwidth of each spectral binNote that compensation for the DFB digital filters will introduce a non-physical positively sloped power trend at high frequencies when the non-corrected signal is dominated by noise. This effect should be examined carefully when determining spectral slopes and features at the highest frequencies. Calibrations for the FIELDS preamplifiers have not been implemented as the preamplifier response is flat and equal to one through the DFB frequency range. Corrections for plasma sheath impedance gain and antenna effective length have not been applied to voltage sensor signals. These corrections will be applied in the Level 3 DFB data products. Therefore, all voltage sensor quantities when present in these Level 2 data products are expressed by using units of Volts squared per Hertz. Likewise, all magnetic field quantities when present in these Level 2 data product are expressed by using units of nanoTesla squared per Hertz.The Level 2 data products contained in this data file are expressed in sensor coordinates: e.g. dV12, dV34 for voltage measurements. For solar orbits 1 and 2, the search coil magnetometer spectral data are rotated into a non-intuitive coordinate system with components [d,e,f]. For solar orbits 3 and beyond, the magnetic field spectral data are in expressed in search coil magnetometer sensor coordinates with components [u,v,w].To rotate from [d,e,f] coordinates into [u,v,w] search coil sensor coordinates, use the following matrix, written in IDL notation, and the following equation: spectra_uvw_vector = R ## spectra_def_vector.R = [[ 0.46834856, -0.81336422 , 0.34509170] [ -0.66921924, -0.071546954, 0.73961249] [ -0.57688408, -0.57733845 , -0.57782790]]The time resolution of the DFB AC spectral data can vary by multiples of 2^N. During encounter when PSP is within 0.25 AU of the Sun, the DFB AC spectra data cadence is typically NYsecond NYsecond [2].

Sloan Digital Sky Survey DR7 White Dwarf Catalog

This table contains a new catalog of spectroscopically confirmed white dwarf stars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 7 (DR7) spectroscopic catalog. The authors find 20,407 white dwarf spectra, representing 19,712 stars, and provide atmospheric model fits to 14,120 DA and 1011 DB white dwarf spectra from 12,843 and 923 stars, respectively. These numbers represent more than a factor of two increase in the total number of white dwarf stars from the previous SDSS white dwarf catalogs based on DR4 data. The distribution of subtypes varies from previous catalogs due to the authors' more conservative, manual classifications of each star in our catalog, supplementing their automatic fits. In particular, they find a large number of magnetic white dwarf stars whose small Zeeman splittings mimic increased Stark broadening that would otherwise result in an overestimated log g if fit as a non-magnetic white dwarf. The authors calculate mean DA and DB masses for their clean, non-magnetic sample and find the DB mean mass is statistically larger than that for the DAs. This table lists the 20,407 white dwarf spectra corresponding to 19,712 distinct stars. This table was created by the HEASARC in January 2013 based on the electronic version of Table 2 from the reference paper which was obtained from the ApJS web site. One duplicate entry was removed from the table in June 2019. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
