Table information for 'flashheros.ordersmeta'

General

Table Description: SSA metadata for split-order Flash/Heros Echelle spectra

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

Resource Description: Spectra from the Flash and Heros Echelle spectrographs developed at Landessternwarte Heidelberg and mounted at La Silla and various other observatories. The data mostly contains spectra of OB stars. Heros was the name of the instrument after Flash got a second channel in 1995.
