Required format

Formatting of the tar ball

Formatting of the table

  • The data about the uploaded galaxies need to be put into a tabseparated table.
  • The first line of the table is the header line. It does not need a # prefix.
  •  

  • Filename

          - name of the associated spectrum file in the tarball

    Instrument

          - name of theinstrument with which the observations were made

    Resolution

          - Approximate spectral resolution

    Redshift

          - Redshift of the source

    Redshift_error

          - Estimated uncertainty on the redshift

    z_approx/system

          - Whether the redshift is an estimate or a measurement of the systemic redshift.
       Boolean - Needs to be either 'True' or 'False'.

    Ra

          - Right ascension of the source. Preferred format: degrees

    Dec

          - Declination of the source. Preferred format: degrees

    Allow_download

          - Whether the raw spectrum is downloadable or not. Boolean - True or False

    Bibcode

          - Bibcode or URL from the ADS, for example: 2015A&A...583A..55O or http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2016ApJ...828...49H.
  •    
  • The following keywords are also recognized but are optional:

    Flux_factor

          - A prefactor for the fluxvector in the spectrum.
    Examples: 1e-17

    Flux_units

          - Units of the fluxvector. Example: 'erg / (s cm2 AA)'

    Wavelength_units

          - Units of the wavelength array. Default: 'AA'

    Name

          - Name of the object.
