This CASU pipeline processing source extraction flag is a placeholder only, and is always set to zero. If you need to know when a particular image detection is a component of a deblend or not, test bit 4 of attribute ppErrBits (see corresponding glossary entry) which is set by WFAU's post-processing software based on testing the areal profiles aprof2-8 (these are set by CASU to -1 for deblended components, or positive values for non-deblended detections). We encode this in an information bit of ppErrBits for convenience when querying the detection and source tables.

In case where the cross-correlation is determined to be unreliable no correction is applied and this value is therefore the same as DEC_UNC. float 8 degrees

dec calDetection, calListRemeasurement, calSource, calSourceRemeasurement, calSynopticSource WSACalib Celestial Declination float 8 Degrees   POS_EQ_DEC_MAIN
Celestial Declination as computed in the processing pipeline, accurate to of order 0.1 arcsec.
Note that original catalogue data has only r*4 storage precision, accurate only to ≈ 50mas. RA and Dec in the database are derived more precisely from WCS in the header and x and y attributes.

dec calVariability WSACalib Mean Declination float 8 Degrees   POS_EQ_DEC_MAIN
The Variability table contains statistics from the set of observations of each source. At present, the mean ra and dec and the error in two tangential directions are calculated. The "ra" direction is defined as tangential to both the radial direction and the cartesian z-axis and the "dec" direction is defined as both the radial direction and the "ra" direction. Since the current model is just the mean and standard deviation of the data, then the chi-squared of the fit=1. Data from good frames across all bands go into the astrometric model determination. This will include bands in non-synoptic filters: the one observation in these bands can help. In future releases a fit will be made to the rms data as a function of magnitude in each band, as has already happened for photometric data and a motion model that incorporates proper motion (and possibly parallax) will be used. The motion model is a parameter in the VarFrameSetInfo table.

The deprecation attribute in all tables indicates if the record in question (be it an image or catalogue detection record) has been deprecated by some curation process in the archive. All data having deprecated=0 are nominally good data; the following flags indicate a quality issue and any data having those flags should not be used for scientific purposes (in many instances, deprecated data will be deleted from public survey released database products):
FlagMeaning
1 Stack frames that have no catalogue or other frameTypes deprecated at ingest (e.g. because a reprocessed frame supercedes it)
2 Dead detector frames
3 Undefined and or non-sensible critical image metadata attributes
4 Sky subtraction not OK (via pipeline sky sub scale factor) NB. not used from October 2005 onwards
5 Incorrect combination of expTime,numExp,numInts for survey specific projects
6 Incorrect frame complements within groups/nights (for incomplete MSBs)
7 Undefined values of critical catalogue attributes for stacks
8 Seeing=0.0 for a stack
9 High value of sky that compromises the depth, or otherwise invalid sky level (e.g. sky < 0)
10 Seeing outside specified maximum
11 Photometric zeropoint too bright
12 Average stellar ellipticity too high (> 0.25)
13 Depth (as calculated from sky noise and 5sigma detection in fixed aperture) is too shallow compared to overall histogram distribution (i.e. shallower than ~0.5mag wrt the modal value) OR sky noise is too high given the sky level
14 AperCor3 outlying in aperCor3 versus seeing distribution
15 Pipeline MAGZPT inconsistent between image PHDU, extension HDUs and/or catalogue extension HDUs (from attributes photZP, photZPExt and photZPCat)
16 Difference in detector sky level wrt to mean of all 4 detectors is outlying in the distribution of the same.
18 Provenance indicates that a constituent frame of a combined frame product includes a deprecated frame.
19 Inconsistent provenance for a stack or leav product indicating something wrong with the image product (usually screwed up FITS keywords confusing the pipeline)
20 Detector number counts indicate some problem (loads of crud images)
21 5-sigma depth of detector frame more than 0.4mag brighter than modal value for a given filter/project/exposure time
22 Basic astrometry check (pixel size and/or aspect ratio) indicates something is wrong with the image
26 Deprecated because frame is flagged as ignored in pipeline processing
27 Deprecated because frame is flagged as part of a summit-rejected MSB
40 Science (*stack) frame is not part of a survey (e.g. high latitude sky frames in the GPS)

65 Eyeball check deprecation - Empty detector frame
66 Eyeball check deprecation - Flat field problem
67 Eyeball check deprecation - Malfunction in crosstalk correction
70 Eyeball check deprecation, but this is the best that can be done so should not be reobserved (e.g. very bright star in FOV)
80 Deprecated because observation (MSB,object,filter) has been repeated later (shallow surveys only). The latest duplicate in each case is kept
81 Deprecated because observation (MSB,object,filter) has been repeated in a later Semester (shallow surveys only). The deepest duplicate in each case is kept
99 Manually deprecated because of some DFS issue (e.g. pipeline screw-up)
100 Multiframe deprecated because all detectors have been previously deprecated (and the MF not already deprecated)
101 MultiframeDetectors deprecated because parent Multiframe is deprecated (and the MFD not already deprecated)
102 *Detection deprecated because parent MFD deprecated
103 MultiframeDetector of a stack deprecated because all constituent frames of the same detector are deprecated
110 Intermediate stack frame photometry found to be poor wrt run of all stacks in a deep field
111 Stack replaced by a filtered version
127 Unwanted frame ingested.
≥128 Frame deprecated because reprocessing supercedes it

Note: for deprecation values of 128 or greater, the most significant bit of the byte has been set in order to preserve the deprecation value set by any previous quality control flagging run on the previous processed version.

designation twomass_psc 2MASS Sexagesimal, equatorial position-based source name in the form: hhmmssss+ddmmsss[ABC...]. varchar 17     NAME
designation twomass_xsc 2MASS Source designation formed from sexigesimal coordinates. varchar 17     NAME
designation wise_prelimsc WISE Sexagesimal, equatorial position-based source name in the form: hhmmss.ss+ddmmss.s
The full naming convention for WISE Preliminary Release Catalog sources has the form "WISEP Jhhmmss.ss+ddmmss.s," where "WISEP" indicates the source is from the Preliminary Release Source Catalog, and "J" indicates the position is J2000. The "WISEP" acronym is not listed explicitly in the designation column
char 20      
det_bit wise_prelimsc WISE Bit-encoded integer indicating bands in which a source has a w?snr>2 detection
For example, a source detected in W1 only has det_bit=1 (binary 0001). A source detected in W4 only has det_bit=8 (binary 1000). A source detected in all four bands has det_bit=15 (binary 1111)
