This table holds metadata for the “Patrol” and “Meteor” plates from
DASCH, i.e., very wide-field observations presumably not useful in
global discovery. These data products are therefore not re-published
through obscore. For the “narrow” plates, see the narrow_plates table.
This table holds metadata for the parts of DASCH counting as targeted
observations (plate scale below 400 arcsec/mm. “Patrol” and “Meteor”
plates in DASCH nomenclature are found in the wide_plates table.
This is a deep optical mosaic of the Fornax cluster’s core, covering
1.6 square degrees. The data were acquired with ESO/MPG 2.2m/WFI,
using a transparent filter that nearly equals the no-filter throughput
and thus provides a high signal-to-noise ratio. Based on an
approximate conversion to V-band magnitudes, the unbinned and binned
mosaics (0.24 and 0.71 arcsec/pixel) reach a median depth of 26.6 and
27.8 mag/sq.arcsec, respectively.
Deep Optical Photometry of Six Fields in the Andromeda Galaxy

Description:
Using the Advanced Camera for Surveys on the Hubble Space Telescope, Thomas Brown
(STScI) et al. obtained deep optical images reaching well below the oldest main
sequence turnoff in six fields of the Andromeda Galaxy. The fields fall at four
positions on the southeast minor axis, one position in the giant stellar stream,
and one position on the northeast major axis. These data were obtained as part of
three large observing programs (9453, 10265, 10816) designed to probe the star
formation history of the stellar population in various structures of the galaxy.
This survey is derived from the 21cm maps presented by Dickey and Lockman
in the <i>ARAA</i> 28, p215. The nH is derived assuming optically thin
emission. The nH given should be considered a lower limit when the nH is
greater than several times 10<sup>20</sup>. Provenance: provided by S. Snowden from data by Dickey and Lockman. This is a service of NASA HEASARC.

Description:
Raw metadata for the spectra, to be combined with image metadata like
date_obs and friends for a complete spectrum descriptions. This also
contains spectral and flux points in array-valued columns.
