Master file of the RaveDR6 data release (ravedr6.dr6_sparv)
The table has 518387 rows, 9 columns.
Description
dr6_sparv is the master file of the Rave DR6 data release. The table contains all observations and objects for which a spectrum can be found in the spectral data base, contains all observations for which the pipeline converged to provide a radial velocity and is the sample of spectra that served as input for further analysis pipelines, e.g., those to derive stellar atmospheric parameters or abundances. The table contains the heliocentric radial velocity, information on the zero-point calibration using sky lines and convergence information of the pipeline
Errata:
04.11.2021
2704 raveid carried a + instead of a - sign. Look into table dr6_errata_raveid. The correct values have been inserted.
