|
|
The elements of the binary array are: S 0 0 0 O H 0 P D. The leftmost bit, S, differentiates whether the band-detection is believed to be a real detection contaminated by an artifact ("0") or a spurious detection of an artifact ("1"). The remaining bits are set to "1" to denote contamination by different types of artifacts according to the letters: - D - Diffraction spike. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by a diffraction spike of a nearby bright star on the same image.
- P - Persistence. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by a short-term latent (persistence) image left by a bright source.
- H - Halo. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by the scattered light halo associated with a bright star.
- O (letter "o") - Optical ghost. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by an optical ghost image caused by a nearby bright source on the same image.
For example, a measurement that is believed to be a spurious detection of a diffraction spike and scattered light halo has a binary bit map value of "100001001" and w?cc_map=265. |

Contamination and confusion string. This column is a character string that denotes all artifacts that may contaminate the W1 measurement of this source, in the priority order D,P,H,O,d,p,h,o. Lower-case letters denote cases where the source detection in this band is believed to be real but the measurement may be contaminated by the artifact. upper-case letters denote cases where the source detection in this band may be a spurious detection of an artifact. This string is "null" if there are no artifacts that affect the measurement in this band. The value that appears in first element of the cc_flags string is the left-most character in w1cc_map_str. If w1cc_map_str is "null", then the corresponding cc_flags entry is "0". |

|
|
W1cov may differ from the integer frame coverage value given in w1m for two reasons. First, individual pixels in the measurement area may be masked or otherwise unusable, reducing the effective pixel count and thus the mean coverage value. Second, the effective sky area sampled by a pixels in single-exposure image varies across the focal plane because of field distortion. Distortion is corrected when coadding to generate the Atlas Images. Therefore, the effective number of pixels contributing to a pixel in the Atlas Coverage Map may be slightly smaller or larger than expected if there was no distortion. Third, the values of w1m may be artificially reduced for sources that are covered by saturated 3-Band Cryo single-exposures. |

Standard aperture measurement quality flag. This flag indicates if one or more image pixels in the measurement aperture for this band is confused with nearby objects, is contaminated by saturated or otherwise ususable pixels, or is an upper limit. The flag value is the integer sum of any of following values which correspond to different conditions: - 0 - nominal: no contamination
- 1 - source confusion: another source falls within the measurement aperture/li>
- 2 - bad or fatal pixels: presence of bad pixels in the measurement aperture (bit 2 or 18 set)
- 4 - non-zero bit flag tripped (other than 2 or 18)
- 8 - corruption: all pixels are flagged as unusable, or the aperture flux is negative; in the former case, the aperture magnitude is "null"; in the latter case, the aperture magnitude is a 95% confidence upper limit
- 16 - saturation: here are one or more saturated pixels in the measurement aperture
- 32 - upper limit: the magnitude is a 95% confidence upper limit
Note about upper limits: threshold = 2 * RMS if ( f < threshold) then if (f < 0) then upper_limit = threshold else upper_limit = f + threshold where f is the flux of the source, RMS is the source flux uncertainty. The upper limit is reported in the WPRO and standard aperture MAG columns; the reported uncertainty is set to 9.99 mag. |

Fraction of W1 pixels affected by transients. This column gives the fraction of all W1 pixels in the stack of individual W1 exposures used to characterize this source that may be affected by transient events. This number is computed by counting the number of pixels in the single exposure Bit Mask images with value "21" that are present within the profile-fitting area, a circular region with radius of 7.25", centered on the position of this source, and dividing by the total number of pixels in the same area that are available for measurement. |

The flag value is an integer that is the combination of one or more of the following values that signify different conditions: - 0 - No contamination
- 1 - Source confusion - another source falls within the measurement aperture
- 2 - Presence of bad pixels in the measurement aperture
- 4 - Non-zero bit flag tripped (other than 2 or 18)
- 8 - All pixels are flagged as unusable, or the aperture flux is negative. In the former case, the aperture magnitude is "null". In the latter case, the aperture magnitude is a 95% confidence upper limit.
- 16 - Saturation - there are one or more saturated pixels in the measurement aperture
- 32 - The magnitude is a 95% confidence upper limit

The Q value is the fraction of all cases to be at least as large as that observed if the null hypothesis is true. The null hypothesis is that the flux is emitted by a non-variable astrophysical object. It may be false because the object is a true variable. It may also be false because the flux measurement is corrupted by artifacts such as cosmic rays, scattered light, etc. The smaller the Q value, the more implausible the null hypothesis, i.e., the more likely it is that the flux is either variable or corrupted or both. |

This occurs for 106,140 sources in the AllWISE Catalog and 54,900 sources in the Reject Table, all of which are confined to a narrow strip of ecliptic longitude. |

|
|
|
The elements of the binary array are: S 0 0 0 O H 0 P D. The leftmost bit, S, differentiates whether the band-detection is believed to be a real detection contaminated by an artifact ("0") or a spurious detection of an artifact ("1"). The remaining bits are set to "1" to denote contamination by different types of artifacts according to the letters: - D - Diffraction spike. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by a diffraction spike of a nearby bright star on the same image.
- P - Persistence. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by a short-term latent (persistence) image left by a bright source.
- H - Halo. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by the scattered light halo associated with a bright star.
- O (letter "o") - Optical ghost. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by an optical ghost image caused by a nearby bright source on the same image.
For example, a measurement that is believed to be a spurious detection of a diffraction spike and scattered light halo has a binary bit map value of "100001001" and w?cc_map=265. |

Contamination and confusion string. This column is a character string that denotes all artifacts that may contaminate the W2 measurement of this source, in the priority order D,P,H,O,d,p,h,o. Lower-case letters denote cases where the source detection in this band is believed to be real but the measurement may be contaminated by the artifact. Upper-case letters denote cases where the source detection in this band may be a spurious detection of an artifact. This string is "null" if there are no artifacts that affect the measurement in this band. The value that appears in second element of the cc_flags string is the left-most character in w2cc_map_str. If w2cc_map_str is "null", then the corresponding cc_flags entry is "0". |

|
|
W2cov may differ from the integer frame coverage value given in w2m for two reasons. First, individual pixels in the measurement area may be masked or otherwise unusable, reducing the effective pixel count and thus the mean coverage value. Second, the effective sky area sampled by a pixels in single-exposure image varies across the focal plane because of field distortion. Distortion is corrected when coadding to generate the Atlas Images. Therefore, the effective number of pixels contributing to a pixel in the Atlas Coverage Map may be slightly smaller or larger than expected if there was no distortion. |

The flag value is an integer that is the combination of one or more of the following values that signify different conditions: - 0 - No contamination
- 1 - Source confusion - another source falls within the measurement aperture
- 2 - Presence of bad pixels in the measurement aperture
- 4 - Non-zero bit flag tripped (other than 2 or 18)
- 8 - All pixels are flagged as unusable, or the aperture flux is negative. In the former case, the aperture magnitude is "null". In the latter case, the aperture magnitude is a 95% confidence upper limit.
- 16 - Saturation - there are one or more saturated pixels in the measurement aperture
- 32 - The magnitude is a 95% confidence upper limit

The Q value is the fraction of all cases to be at least as large as that observed if the null hypothesis is true. The null hypothesis is that the flux is emitted by a non-variable astrophysical object. It may be false because the object is a true variable. It may also be false because the flux measurement is corrupted by artifacts such as cosmic rays, scattered light, etc. The smaller the Q value, the more implausible the null hypothesis, i.e., the more likely it is that the flux is either variable or corrupted or both. |

The elements of the binary array are: S 0 0 0 O H 0 P D. The leftmost bit, S, differentiates whether the band-detection is believed to be a real detection contaminated by an artifact ("0") or a spurious detection of an artifact ("1"). The remaining bits are set to "1" to denote contamination by different types of artifacts according to the letters: - D - Diffraction spike. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by a diffraction spike of a nearby bright star on the same image.
- P - Persistence. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by a short-term latent (persistence) image left by a bright source.
- H - Halo. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by the scattered light halo associated with a bright star.

Contamination and confusion string. This column is a character string that denotes all artifacts that may contaminate the W3 measurement of this source, in the priority order D,P,H,O,d,p,h,o. Lower-case letters denote cases where the source detection in this band is believed to be real but the measurement may be contaminated by the artifact. Upper-case letters denote cases where the source detection in this band may be a spurious detection of an artifact. This string is "null" if there are no artifacts that affect the measurement in this band. The value that appears in third element of the cc_flags string is the left-most character in w3cc_map_str. If w3cc_map_str is "null", then the corresponding cc_flags entry is "0". |

W3cov may differ from the integer frame coverage value given in w3m for two reasons. First, individual pixels in the measurement area may be masked or otherwise unusable, reducing the effective pixel count and thus the mean coverage value. Second, the effective sky area sampled by a pixels in single-exposure image varies across the focal plane because of field distortion. Distortion is corrected when coadding to generate the Atlas Images. Therefore, the effective number of pixels contributing to a pixel in the Atlas Coverage Map may be slightly smaller or larger than expected if there was no distortion. |

This column is "null" if w3m=0, the mean flux is negative or if no individual frame measurements are possible. CAUTION: This is not a robust measurement of source brightness. It is provided as an internal repeatability diagnostic only. Users should always defer to w3mpro for the optimal flux measurement for point sources. |

The Q value is the fraction of all cases to be at least as large as that observed if the null hypothesis is true. The null hypothesis is that the flux is emitted by a non-variable astrophysical object. It may be false because the object is a true variable. It may also be false because the flux measurement is corrupted by artifacts such as cosmic rays, scattered light, etc. The smaller the Q value, the more implausible the null hypothesis, i.e., the more likely it is that the flux is either variable or corrupted or both. |

The elements of the binary array are: S 0 0 0 O H 0 P D. The leftmost bit, S, differentiates whether the band-detection is believed to be a real detection contaminated by an artifact ("0") or a spurious detection of an artifact ("1"). The remaining bits are set to "1" to denote contamination by different types of artifacts according to the letters: - D - Diffraction spike. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by a diffraction spike of a nearby bright star on the same image.
- P - Persistence. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by a short-term latent (persistence) image left by a bright source.
- H - Halo. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by the scattered light halo associated with a bright star.
- O (letter "o") - Optical ghost. Source may be a spurious detection of or contaminated by an optical ghost image caused by a nearby bright source on the same image.
For example, a measurement that is believed to be a spurious detection of a diffraction spike and scattered light halo has a binary bit map value of "100001001" and w?cc_map=265. |

Contamination and confusion string. This column is a character string that denotes all artifacts that may contaminate the W4 measurement of this source, in the priority order D,P,H,O,d,p,h,o. Lower-case letters denote cases where the source detection in this band is believed to be real but the measurement may be contaminated by the artifact. Upper-case letters denote cases where the source detection in this band may be a spurious detection of an artifact. This string is "null" if there are no artifacts that affect the measurement in this band. The value that appears in fourth element of the cc_flags string is the left-most character in w4cc_map_str. If w4cc_map_str is "null", then the corresponding cc_flags entry is "0". |

|
|
|
W4cov may differ from the integer frame coverage value given in w4m for two reasons. First, individual pixels in the measurement area may be masked or otherwise unusable, reducing the effective pixel count and thus the mean coverage value. Second, the effective sky area sampled by a pixels in single-exposure image varies across the focal plane because of field distortion. Distortion is corrected when coadding to generate the Atlas Images. Therefore, the effective number of pixels contributing to a pixel in the Atlas Coverage Map may be slightly smaller or larger than expected if there was no distortion. |

The Q value is the fraction of all cases to be at least as large as that observed if the null hypothesis is true. The null hypothesis is that the flux is emitted by a non-variable astrophysical object. It may be false because the object is a true variable. It may also be false because the flux measurement is corrupted by artifacts such as cosmic rays, scattered light, etc. The smaller the Q value, the more implausible the null hypothesis, i.e., the more likely it is that the flux is either variable or corrupted or both. |
