Table information for 'rave.dr4'

General

Table Description: The RAVE object catalog, data release 4. Note that columns with names ending in _k originate from the stellar parameters pipeline, those with names ending in _c come from the chemical pipeline, those with name ending in _sparv come from the radial velocity pipeline. Names ending in _n_k indicate calibrated values.

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

Resource Description: The RAdial Velocity Experiment (RAVE) contains stellar atmospheric parameters (effective temperature, surface gravity, overall metallicity), radial velocities, chemical abundances and distances. Observations between 2003 and 2013 were used to build the five RAVE data releases.

Notes

• Note 5

  Flag of Stellar Parameter Pipeline.

  0	Pipeline converged
  1	no convergence.
  2	MATISSE oscillates between two values and the mean is given.
  3	results of MATISSE at the boundaries or outside the grid and the DEGAS value has been adopted
  4	the metal-poor giants with SNR<20 have been re-run by DEGAS with a scale factor (ie, internal parameter of DEGAS) of 0.40

• Note 3

  Flag value of the form FGSH, F being for the entire plate, G for the 50 fibers group to which the fiber belongs. S flags the zero-point correction used: C for cubic and S for a constant shift. If H is set to * the fiber is close to a 15 fiber gap. For F and G the values can be * A, B, C, D, or E, meaning:

  A	dispersion around correction lower than 1 km/s
  B	dispersion between 1 and 2 km/s
  C	dispersion between 2 and 3 km/s
  D	dispersion larger than 3 km/s
  E	less than 15 fibers available for the fit
