Data from the Back Wide-Field Camera
Stellar Objects in this image
Note: positive radial velocities indicated objects moving away from us. Blue flux is measured at 440nm, green at 500nm, and red at 700nm. Units are:
Measurement | Unit |
---|---|
Position | degrees |
Flux | W/nm/m2 |
Parallax | arcsec |
Radial Velocity | km/s |
Variable | unitless (=1 if variable, =0 if not) |
Uncertainties in this data (one standard deviation figures) are:
Measurement | Uncertainty |
---|---|
Flux | 1% |
Position | 0.0001 degrees |
Parallax | 0.001 arcseconds |
Radial Velocity | 0.03km/s |
