Crossmatch RAVE DR5 and HSOY (ravedr5.rave_hsoy)
The table has 501593 rows, 30 columns.
Description
A crossmatch of RAVE_DR5 and the Hot Stuff for One Year (HSOY) catalog. Only stars from HSOY with comp=0 were taken to remove all possible ambiguities.
The RAVE_HSOY table contains the match of RAVE observations with a unique match (ipix = ID_PPMXL) and comp=0 to the corresponding PPMXL object in HSOY. The aim of HSOY is to provide improved proper motions partly based on Gaia data, allowing some studies to be carried out just now or as pilot studies for later larger projects requiring higher-precision data. The HSOY catalogue was compiled using the positions taken from Gaia-DR1 combined with the input data from the PPMXL catalogue, employing the same weighted least-squares technique that was used to assemble the PPMXL catalogue itself. Results. This effort resulted in a four-parameter astrometric catalogue containing 583,000,000 objects, with Gaia-DR1 quality positions and proper motions with precisions from significantly less than 1 mas/yr to 5 mas/yr, depending on the object"s brightness and location on the sky.

Columns
Name | Type | UCD | Unit | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
rave_obs_id | char | meta.id |
Unique Identifier for RAVE objects, Observation Date, Fieldname, Fibernumber |
|
ipix | long | meta.id.cross |
The PPMXL object identifier, which in turn is the q3c ipix of the original USNO-B object; for HSOY, only (ipix, comp) is a unique identifier (primary key). The recommended identifier form is "HSOY ipix.comp, where comp=0 for NULL comps. This is what the SCS generates. |
|
comp | short | meta.code.multip |
If non-null this indicates that multiple Gaia objects matched the PPMXL object; this may indicate bona fide multiple stars, but more likely is due to failed matching of Gaia observations at different epochs. In both cases, proper motions must be used with care. The index is artificial, i.e., no primary, secondary, etc, is implied. ipix+comp together are a primary key to hsoy.main. |

s**-1 |
Estimated error in Gaia G-band magnitude. This is estimated as 1.09*err_flux/flux which is good as a symmetric 1 σ-error of the magnitude to at least within a few percent when err_flux/flux is smaller than 0.1, as it is for the HSOY objects. |
clone | short | meta.code.qual |
If 1, more than one PPMXL object matched to this Gaia object (i.e.: proper motion is probably wrong, any apparent duplicity is probably spurious). This is normally due to failed matching of objects from different plates in USNO-B. |
