DiaSource

Table to store 'difference image sources'; - sources detected at SNR >=5 on difference images.

Columns

name datatype description unit nullable ivoa:ucd votable:arraysize length
diaSourceId primary key long Unique id. true meta.id;obs.image
ccdVisitId indexed int Id of the ccdVisit where this diaSource was measured. Note that we are allowing a diaSource to belong to multiple amplifiers, but it may not span multiple ccds. true meta.id;obs.image
diaObjectId indexed long Id of the diaObject this source was associated with, if any. If not, it is set to NULL (each diaSource will be associated with either a diaObject or ssObject). true meta.id;src
ssObjectId indexed long Id of the ssObject this source was associated with, if any. If not, it is set to NULL (each diaSource will be associated with either a diaObject or ssObject). true meta.id;src
nameTrue char MPC or simulation designation of the moving object true 20 20
ssObjectReassocTime double Time (MJD) when this diaSource was reassociated from diaObject to ssObject (if such reassociation happens, otherwise NULL). d true time.processing
midPointMjdTai double Effective mid-exposure time for this diaSource. d true time.epoch
ra double RA-coordinate of the center of this diaSource. deg true pos.eq.ra
raErr float Uncertainty of ra. deg true stat.error;pos.eq.ra
dec double Dec-coordinate of the center of this diaSource. deg true pos.eq.dec
decErr float Uncertainty of dec. deg true stat.error;pos.eq.dec
ra_dec_Cov float Covariance between ra and dec. deg**2 true stat.covariance
snr float The signal-to-noise ratio at which this source was detected in the difference image. true stat.snr
band char Name of the band used to take the exposure where this source was measured true 1
mag float Magnitude. This is a placeholder and should be replaced by flux. true
magErr float Magnitude error. This is a placeholder and should be replaced by flux error. true
magTrueVband float True (noiseless) V-band magnitude of the simulated diaSource true
raTrue double True (noiseless) right ascension of the simulated diaSource true
decTrue double True (noiseless) declination of the simulated diaSource true
