Information on Service 'Browse FAI CCD Photometric Observations'

[Use this service from your browser]

Further access options are discussed below

Reduced, astrometrically calibrated CCD images obtained with telescopes operated by the Fesenkov Astrophysical Institute. The initial release contains observations from the Zeiss-1000 East telescope at the Tian Shan Astronomical Observatory; further FAI telescopes will be added as their reduced data become available. Discovery metadata remain public during proprietary periods. Before the RELEASE date, downloads contain the original FITS headers but zero-valued data arrays; afterwards the original FITS product is delivered.

Overview

You can access this service using:

This resource is not (directly) published. This can mean that it was deemed too unimportant, for internal use only, or is just a helper for a published service. Equally likely, however, it is under development, abandoned in development or otherwise unfinished. Exercise some caution.

Other services provided on the underlying data include:

Input Fields

The following fields are available to provide input to the service (with some renderers, some of these fields may be unavailable):

NameTable Head DescriptionUnitUCD
embargoed_only Only under embargo Show only records whose FITS product is still under embargo; discovery metadata remain public. N/A N/A
filter_name Filter Normalised photometric filter name. N/A meta.id;instr.filter
hPOS Position ICRS Position, RA,DEC, or Simbad object (e.g., 234.234,-32.45). N/A pos.eq
hSIZE Field size Size in decimal degrees deg N/A
object_search Object Target-name fragment. Matching ignores case, spaces and punctuation. A complete SIMBAD alias is also accepted; if SIMBAD is unavailable, local-name matching still works. N/A N/A
telescope_name Telescope Telescope inferred from the managed archive path. N/A instr.tel

Default Output Fields

The following fields are contained in the output by default. More fields may be available for selection; these would be given below in the VOTable output fields.

NameTable Head DescriptionUnitUCD
access_url Access URL The URL at which to obtain the data set. N/A meta.ref.url
data_policy_class Policy FAI data-policy class from the OBS-CLSS FITS keyword. N/A meta.code.class
filter_name Filter Normalised photometric filter name. N/A meta.id;instr.filter
obs_title Title Free-from title of the data set N/A meta.title;obs
release_date Public after Date on which the FITS product becomes publicly accessible. N/A time.release
s_dec Dec Dec of (center of) observation, ICRS deg pos.eq.dec
s_ra RA RA of (center of) observation, ICRS deg pos.eq.ra
t_exptime Exp. Time Total exposure time s time.duration;obs.exposure
t_min Min. t Lower bound of times represented in the data set d time.start;obs.exposure
target_name Target Name Object a targeted observation targeted N/A meta.id;src
telescope_name Telescope Telescope inferred from the managed archive path. N/A instr.tel

VOTable Output Fields

The following fields are available in VOTable output. The verbosity level is a number intended to represent the relative importance of the field on a scale of 1 to 30. The services take a VERB argument. A field is included in the output if their verbosity level is less or equal VERB*10.

NameTable Head DescriptionUnitUCD Verb. Level
access_url Access URL The URL at which to obtain the data set. N/A meta.ref.url 1
s_ra RA RA of (center of) observation, ICRS deg pos.eq.ra 1
