Table information for 'life.star_basic'

General

Table Description: A list of all basic stellar parameters. Note that LIFE's target database is living data. The content – and to some extent even structure – of these tables may change at any time without prior warning.

This table is available for ADQL queries and through the TAP endpoint.

Resource Description:

The LIFE Target Star Database contains information useful for the planned LIFE mission (mid-ir, nulling interferometer in space). It characterizes possible target systems including information about stellar, planetary and disk properties. The data itself is mainly a collection from different other catalogs.

Note that LIFE's target database is living data. The content – and to some extent even structure – of these tables may change at any time without prior warning.
