CORNISH Fixed Width Catalogue - Format Notes ============================================ Last updated 2013-May-01 by C. Purcell This file describes the format of the fixed-width ASCII version of the CORNISH catalogue. The CSV-format catalogue contains identical columns in the same order. Further information may be found on the project web page: http://cornish.leeds.ac.uk +-----------+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | Chars | ColName | Description +-----------+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | 1-17 | Name | Unique name from Galactic coordinates. | | 19-27 | l_deg | Galactic longitude | | 29-37 | b_deg | Galactic latitude | | 39-47 | RA_deg | Right Ascension (J2000) | | 49-57 | Dec_deg | Declination (J2000) | | 59-66 | dRA_asec | Uncertainty in Right Ascension | | 68-76 | dDec_asec | Uncertainty in Declination | | 78-87 | Peak_mJybm | Peak of Gaussian fit or peak pixel | | 89-99 | dPeak_mJybm | Uncertainty in peak | | 101-108 | Flux_mJy | Integrated flux density | | 110-118 | dFLux_mJy | Uncertainty in flux density | | 120-132 | Angscale_asec | Angular scale (geometric average) | | 134-147 | dAngscale_asec | Uncertainty in angular scale | | 149-166 | AngscaleDecon_asec | Deconvolved angular scale (for >1.8'' only)| | 168-182 | gaussMajor_asec | Major axis of Gaussian fit | | 184-199 | dGaussMajor_asec | Uncertainty in major axis of Gaussian fit | | 201-215 | gaussMinor_asec | Minor axis of Gaussian fit | | 217-232 | dGaussMinor_asec | Uncertainty in minor axis of Gaussian fit | | 234-250 | gaussPosangle_deg | Position angle of Gaussian fit | | 252-269 | dGaussPosangle_deg | Uncertainty in position angle | | 271-279 | RMS_mJybm | Root-mean-square noise (local) | | 281-289 | Sky_mJybm | Median sky level | | 291-296 | Sigma | Signal-to-noise of peak before corrections | | 298-302 | mType | Measurement type (Gauss or Polygon) | | 304-312 | fArtefact | Artefact flag (manual inspection) | | 314-321 | fCluster | Source within 12'' of another | | 323-327 | fEdge | Source within 2' of survey edge | | 329-336 | fHiNoise | Source in high-noise region (>0.45mJy/bm) | | 338-344 | fHi5Sig | High density of possibly spurious sources | | 346-356 | fNearBright | Within 3' of a >500mJy/bm source | | 358-373 | fSmoothWeighting | Imaged using the smooth weighting scheme | | 375-386 | fOverlap7sig | Overlaps with another 7-sigma source | | 388-399 | fOverlap5sig | Overlaps with a 5 to 7-sigma source | +-----------+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+ Cone search results also return the separation between matches: +-----------+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | Chars | ColName | Description +-----------+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | 400-408 | Sep_asec | Separation in arcseconds | | 410-414 | Index | Original line number in input catalogue | +-----------+--------------------+--------------------------------------------+ When a batch cone search is performed additional text in the input catalogue file is appended to each line.
