MMS 4 Electron Drift Instrument (EDI) Electric Field, Level 2 (L2), Survey Mode, 5 s Data
Electron Drift Instrument (EDI) Electric Field Survey, Level 2, 5 s Data. EDI has two scientific data acquisition modes, called electric field mode and ambient mode. In electric field mode, two coded electron beams are emitted such that they return to the detectors after one or more gyrations in the ambient magnetic and electric field. The firing directions and times-of-flight allow the derivation of the drift velocity and electric field. In ambient mode, the electron beams are not used. The detectors with their large geometric factors and their ability to adjust the field of view quickly allow continuous sampling of ambient electrons at a selected pitch angle and fixed but selectable energy. To find the beam directions that will hit the detector, EDI sweeps each beam in the plane perpendicular to B at a fixed angular rate of 0.22 °/ms until a signal has been acquired by the detector. Once signal has been acquired, the beams are swept back and forth to stay on target. Beam detection is not determined from the changes in the count-rates directly, but from the square of the beam counts divided by the background counts from ambient electrons, i.e., from the square of the instantaneous signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). This quantity is computed from data provided by the correlator in the Gun-Detector Electronics that also generates the coding pattern imposed on the outgoing beams. If the squared SNR ratio exceeds a threshold, this is taken as evidence that the beam is returning to the detector. The thresholds for SNR are chosen dependent on background fluxes. They represent a compromise between getting false hits (induced by strong variations in background electron fluxes) and missing true beam hits. The basic software loop that controls EDI operations is executed every 2 ms. As the times when the beams hit their detectors are neither synchronized with the telemetry nor equidistant, EDI data have no fixed time-resolution. Data are reported in telemetry slots. In Survey, using the standard packing mode 0, there are eight telemetry slots per second and Gyn Detector Unit (GDU). The last beam detected during the previous slot will be reported in the current slot. If no beam has been detected, the data quality will be set to zero. In Burst telemetry there are 128 slots per second and GDU. The data in each slot consists of information regarding the beam firing directions (stored in the form of analytic gun deflection voltages), times-of-flight (if successfully measured), quality indicators, time stamps of the beam hits, and some auxiliary correlator-related information. Whenever EDI is not in electron drift mode, it uses its ambient electron mode. The mode has the capability to sample at either 90 degrees pitch angle or at 0/180 degrees (field aligned), or to alternate between 90 degrees and field aligned with selectable dwell times. While all options have been demonstrated during the commissioning phase, only the field aligned mode has been used in the routine operations phase. The choices for energy are 250 eV, 500 eV, and 1 keV. The two detectors, which are facing opposite hemispheres, are looking strictly into opposite directions, so while one detector is looking along B the other is looking antiparallel to B (corresponding to pitch angles of 180 and 0 degrees, respectively). The two detectors switch roles every half spin of the spacecraft as the tip of the magnetic field vector spins outside the field of view of one detector and into the field of view of the other detector. This is the primary data product generated from data collected in electric field mode. The science data generated are drift velocity and electric field data in various coordinate systems. They are derived from triangulation and/or time-of-flight analysis. Where both methods are applicable, their results will be combined using a weighting approach based on their relative errors.

Spitzer Deep Wide-Field Survey 5.8 micron Epoch 4 Catalog
The Spitzer Deep, Wide-Field Survey (SDWFS) is a four-epoch infrared survey of 10 square degrees in the Boötes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey using the IRAC instrument on the Spitzer Space Telescope. SDWFS, a Spitzer Cycle 4 Legacy project, occupies a unique position in the area-depth survey space defined by other Spitzer surveys. The four epochs that make up SDWFS permit - for the first time - the selection of infrared-variable and high proper motion objects over a wide field on timescales of years. Because of its large survey volume, SDWFS is sensitive to galaxies out to z ~ 3 with relatively little impact from cosmic variance for all but the richest systems. The SDWFS data sets will thus be especially useful for characterizing galaxy evolution beyond z ~ 1.5.The delivery consists of four band-matched catalogs for each of the four epochs and for the total SDWFS coadd data, a total of 20 catalogs. Vega magnitudes are reported for each IRAC band: 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, and 8 microns. Each source was measured three ways: 4 arcsec diameter aperture, 6 arcsec diameter aperture, and Kron radius aperture (MAG_AUTO in SExtractor). Source coordinates correspond to 2MASS catalog positions to within 0.2 arcsec. The tabulated uncertainties are twice the SExtractor (statistical only) uncertainties as an attempt to account for systematic uncertainties.
Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope 150-MHz Survey of Kepler K2 Field 1
This table contains some of the results from the first dedicated radio continuum survey of a Kepler K2 mission field, Field 1, covering the North Galactic Cap. The survey was wide-field, contemporaneous, multi-epoch, and multi-resolution in nature and was conducted at low radio frequencies between 140 and 200 MHz. The multi-epoch and ultra-wide-field (but relatively low-resolution) part of the survey was provided by 15 nights of observation using the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) over a period of approximately a month, contemporaneous with K2 observations of this field. The multi-resolution aspect of the survey was provided by the low-resolution (4 arcminutes) MWA imaging, complemented by non-contemporaneous but much higher resolution (20 arcseconds) observations using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT). The survey is, therefore, sensitive to the details of radio structures across a wide range of angular scales. Consistent with other recent low radio frequency surveys, no significant radio transients or variables were detected in the survey. The resulting source catalogs consist of 1,085 and 1,468 detections in the two MWA observation bands (centered at 154 and 185 MHz, respectively) and 7,445 detections in the GMRT observation band (centered at 148 MHz), over 314 square degrees. The survey is presented as a significant resource for multi-wavelength investigations of the more than 21,000 target objects in the K2 field. In the reference paper, the authors briefly examined their survey data against K2 target lists for dwarf star types (stellar types M and L) that had been known to produce radio flares. This survey included contemporaneous observations of the K2 Field 1 made with the MWA and historical (from 2010-2012) observations made with the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR) GMRT Sky Survey (TGSS; see <a href="http://tgss.ncra.tifr.res.in/">http://tgss.ncra.tifr.res.in/</a>), via the TGSS Alternative Data Release 1 (ADR1; Intema et al. 2016, in prep.). The MWA and GMRT are radio telescopes operating at low radio frequencies (approximately 140-200 MHz for the work described here). The K2 mission Campaign 1 was conducted on Field 1 (center at J2000.0 coordinates RA of 11:35:45.51 and Dec of +01:25:02.28;), covering the North Galactic Cap, between 2014 May 30 and August 21. A full survey of the radio sky at 150 MHz as visible from the GMRT was performed within the scope of the PI-driven TGSS project between 2010 and early 2012, covering the declination range from -55 to +90 degrees. Summarizing the observational parameters as given on the TGSS project website (<a href="http://tgss.ncra.tifr.res.in/150MHz/obsstrategy.html">http://tgss.ncra.tifr.res.in/150MHz/obsstrategy.html</a>), the survey consists of more than 5,000 pointings on an approximate hexagonal grid. Data were recorded in full polarization (RR, LL, RL, LR) every 2 seconds, in 256 frequency channels across 16 MHz of bandwidth (140-156 MHz). Each pointing was observed for about 15 minutes, split over three or more scans spaced in time to improve UV-coverage. Typically, 20-40 pointings were grouped together into single night-time observing sessions, bracketed and interleaved by primary (flux density and bandpass) calibrator scans on 3C48, 3C147, and/or 3C286. Interleaving secondary (phase) calibrator scans on a variety of standard phase calibrators were also included, but were typically too faint to be of significant benefit at these frequencies. The single epoch TGSS image was processed in the same way as each of the MWA images using the background and noise characterization source finding techniques outlined in Section 3.1.3 of the reference paper. A source catalog was produced from the single TGSS image. For the high-resolution TGSS images, the sources were resolved in some cases and so morphology information is included in this catalog. The final set of MWA images after source finding yielded a total of 1,085 radio sources at 154 MHz, and 1,471 sources at 185 MHz over 314 square degrees, at an angular resolutions of ~4 arcminutes: this MWA catalog is contained in the HEASARC table <a href="/W3Browse/radio-catalog/mwak2f1lfc.html">MWAK2F1HFC</a>, which thus has 1,085 + 1,471 = 2,556 entries. The GMRT images, after source finding, yielded a total of 7,445 radio sources over the same field, at an angular resolution of ~0.3 arcminutes: this GMRT source catalog is contained in the present HEASARC table. Thus, the overall survey covers multiple epochs of observation, spans approximately 140-200 MHz, is sensitive to structures on angular scales from arcseconds to degrees, and the MWA part is contemporaneous with the K2 observations of the field over a period of approximately one month.

XMM-Newton/Canada-France Redshift Survey Fields Optical Identifications
This table contains the proposed identifications for all the good optical ID candidates (true probability value P' that the object is not associated of < 0.15) corresponding to the X-ray sources from the XMM-Newton surveys of the 3 and 14 hours Right Ascension (hereafter 3-h and 14-h, respectively) fields from the Canada-France Redshift Survey. (These fields are also known as the Groth Strip). The X-ray sources cover the 0.5 - 10 keV flux range from ~2 x 10<sup>-15</sup> - 10<sup>-13</sup> erg/cm<sup>2</sup>/s. The authors have used a subset of the XMM-Newton sources, which have Chandra positions, to determine the best method of obtaining optical identifications of sources with only XMM-Newton positions. They found optical identifications for 79% of the XMM-Newton sources for which there were deep optical images. The sources without optical identifications are likely to be optically fainter and have higher redshifts than the sources with identifications. The authors have estimated 'photometric redshifts' for the identified sources, calibrating their method using ~200 galaxies in the fields with spectroscopic redshifts. They find that the redshift distribution has a strong peak at z ~ 0.7. This table was created by the HEASARC in July 2005 based on the combination of CDS table J/MNRAS/350/785/tablea34.dat (the merged Tables A3 and A4 from the published paper) and CDS table J/MNRAS/350/785/tablea56.dat (the merged Tables A5 and A6 from the published paper).

MMS 1 Search Coil Magnetometer (SCM) AC Magnetic Field Level 2 (L2), Survey Mode, 32 Sample/s Data
Search Coil Magnetometer (SCM) AC Magnetic Field (32 samples/s), Level 2, Survey Mode Data. The tri-axial Search-Coil Magnetometer with its associated preamplifier measures three-dimensional magnetic field fluctuations. The analog magnetic waveforms measured by the SCM are digitized and processed inside the Digital Signal Processor (DSP), collected and stored by the Central Instrument Data Processor (CIDP) via the Fields Central Electronics Box (CEB). Prior to launch, all SCM Flight models were calibrated by LPP team members at the National Magnetic Observatory, Chambon-la-Foret (Orleans). Once per orbit, each SCM transfer function is checked thanks to the onboard calibration signal provided by the DSP. The SCM is operated for the entire MMS orbit in survey mode. Within scientific Regions Of Interest (ROI), burst mode data are also acquired as well as high speed burst mode data. This SCM data set corresponds to the AC magnetic field waveforms in nanoTesla and in the GSE frame. The SCM instrument paper can be found at http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11214-014-0096-9 and the SCM data product guide at https://lasp.colorado.edu/mms/sdc/public/datasets/fields/.

9C Continued 15-GHz Ryle Telescope Survey of VSA Fields Source Catalog
The 9C (9th Cambridge) survey of radio sources with the Ryle Telescope at 15.2 GHz was set up to survey the fields of the cosmic microwave background telescope, the Very Small Array (VSA). In their first paper (Waldram et al. 2003, MNRAS, 342, 915), the authors described three regions of the survey, constituting a total area of 529 deg<sup>2</sup> to a completeness limit of ~ 25 mJy. In this follow-up, they present results from a series of deeper regions, constituting a total area of 115 deg<sup>2</sup> complete to ~ 10 mJy and of 29 deg<sup>2</sup> complete to ~ 5.5 mJy. The authors have investigated the source counts and the distributions of the 1.4 to 15.2 GHz spectral indices for these deeper samples. The whole catalog of 643 sources is contained in the present table. Down to their lower limit of 5.5 mJy, the authors detect no evidence for any change in the differential source count from the earlier fitted count above 25 mJy, n(S) = 51(S/Jy)<sup>-2.15</sup> Jy<sup>-1</sup> sr<sup>-1</sup>. They matched both their new and earlier catalogues with the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) catalogue at 1.4 GHz and selected flux-limited samples at both 15 and 1.4 GHz. As they expected, they found that the proportions of sources with flat and rising spectra in the samples selected at 15 GHz are significantly higher than those in the samples selected at 1.4 GHz. In addition, for 15-GHz samples selected in three flux density ranges, they detect a significant shift in the median value of the 1.4 to 15.2 GHz spectral index: the higher the flux densities, the higher the proportions of sources with flat and rising spectra. In the area complete to ~ 10 mJy, the authors find five sources between 10 and 15 mJy at 15 GHz, amounting to 4.3 per cent of sources in this range, with no counterpart in the NVSS catalogue. This implies that, had they relied on the NVSS for locating their sources, they could have missed a significant proportion of them at low flux densities. These results illustrate the problems inherent in using a low-frequency catalog to characterize the source population at a much higher frequency and emphasize the value of a blind 15.2-GHz survey.

Two-Meter Radio Mini Survey (T-RaMiSu) of the Bootes Field
This table contains results from wide-area, deep, high-resolution 153-MHz GMRT observations of the NOAO Bootes field, adding to the extensive, multi-wavelength data of this region. The observations, data reduction, and catalog construction and description are described in the reference paper. The seven pointings (listed in Table 2 of the reference paper) produced a final mosaic covering 30 square degrees with a resolution of 25". The rms noise is 2 mJy/beam in the center of the image, rising to 4-5 mJy/beam at the edges, with an average of 3 mJy/beam. Seventy-five per cent of the area has an rms < 4 mJy/beam. The extracted source catalog contains 1289 sources detected at 5 sigma at flux densities between 4.1 mJy and 7.3 Jy, of which 453 are resolved. The authors estimate the catalogue to be 92% reliable and 95% complete at an integrated flux density limit of 14 mJy. The flux densities and astrometry have been corrected for systematic errors. In their paper, the authors calculate the differential source counts which are in good agreement with those in the literature and provide an important step forward in quantifying the source counts at these low frequencies and low flux densities. The GMRT 153-MHz sources have been matched to the 1.4-GHz NVSS and 327-MHz WENSS catalogs and spectral indices were derived. The source catalog presented here is derived from seven 4 hour pointings with the GMRT at 153 MHz, centered on the NOAO Bootes field. The resulting 30 square degree image has a central noise level of 2 mJy/beam and a resolution of 25". This table contains entries for all 1289 detected 153-MHz radio sources as well as for the 160 Gaussian components of the 77 sources (71 doubles and 3 triples) which could be fit by multiple Gaussian components, making a total of 1449 entries. This table was created by the HEASARC in January 2013 based on the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/549/A55">CDS Catalog J/A+A/549/A55</a> files table2.dat and table3.dat.

Spitzer Extragalactic First Look Survey IRAC Bandmerged Main Field Catalog
The Extragalactic First Look Survey is composed of 4 square degrees of imaging with MIPS and IRAC centered at J1718+5930, with extensive ancillary data from ground-based optical and radio telescopes. As one of the first observations made with Spitzer after the completion of Science Verification at the end of 2003 November, the aim of this 67 hr survey was to characterize the extragalactic source populations observed with Spitzer down to sub-millijansky levels in the mid-infrared.
Spitzer Deep Wide-Field Survey 5.8 micron Epoch 3 Catalog
The Spitzer Deep, Wide-Field Survey (SDWFS) is a four-epoch infrared survey of 10 square degrees in the Boötes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey using the IRAC instrument on the Spitzer Space Telescope. SDWFS, a Spitzer Cycle 4 Legacy project, occupies a unique position in the area-depth survey space defined by other Spitzer surveys. The four epochs that make up SDWFS permit - for the first time - the selection of infrared-variable and high proper motion objects over a wide field on timescales of years. Because of its large survey volume, SDWFS is sensitive to galaxies out to z ~ 3 with relatively little impact from cosmic variance for all but the richest systems. The SDWFS data sets will thus be especially useful for characterizing galaxy evolution beyond z ~ 1.5.The delivery consists of four band-matched catalogs for each of the four epochs and for the total SDWFS coadd data, a total of 20 catalogs. Vega magnitudes are reported for each IRAC band: 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, and 8 microns. Each source was measured three ways: 4 arcsec diameter aperture, 6 arcsec diameter aperture, and Kron radius aperture (MAG_AUTO in SExtractor). Source coordinates correspond to 2MASS catalog positions to within 0.2 arcsec. The tabulated uncertainties are twice the SExtractor (statistical only) uncertainties as an attempt to account for systematic uncertainties.
