Description


The ROSHRITOTAL data table contains a list of sources detected by the Standard Analysis Software System (SASS) in reprocessed, public HRI datasets. In addition to the parameters returned by SASS (like position, count rate, signal-to-noise, etc.) each source in the table has associated with it a set of source and sequence "flags." These flags are provided by the ROSAT data centers in the US, Germany and the UK to help the user of the ROSHRITOTAL database table quickly judge the reliability of a given source. The ROSHRITOTAL database table is a superset of the ROSHRI database table. The ROSHRI table excludes sources that meet the following parameter criteria: false_det = 'T' or deferred = 'T' or not_checked = 'T' or un_unique ='T'. See the documentation below for descriptions of these parameters. These data have been screened by ROSAT data centers in the US, Germany, and the UK as a step in the production of the ROSAT Results Archive. The RRA contains extracted source and associated products with an indication of reliability for the primary parameters. This database table was last updated in August 2001. More information about the ROSAT Results Archive for HRI sources can be obtained at the following web pages: <pre> <a href="http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/rosat/rra/RRA.html">http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/rosat/rra/RRA.html</a> <a href="http://hea-www.harvard.edu/rosat/rra.html">http://hea-www.harvard.edu/rosat/rra.html</a> <a href="http://www.aip.de/groups/xray/rosat/rra.html">http://www.aip.de/groups/xray/rosat/rra.html</a> <a href="http://ledas-www.star.le.ac.uk/rra">http://ledas-www.star.le.ac.uk/rra</a> </pre> This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
