Columns of table:
- label --
identifier for each optical object displayed on the chart(s) above.
- coordinates
J2000 -- position on the sky of this optical object, pattern is
hhmmss.s±ddmmss, which gives 1 arcsecond precision.
- dist asec
-- distance (offset in arcseconds) of this object from the central
galaxy, i.e. the center of the chart.
- angle E-N
-- direction from the central galaxy to this object, N thru E,
ie. 0 is up, 90 is left, 180 is down, 270 is rightwards.
- type -- short
description of this object: Q=quasar, B=Bl lac, A=AGN, G=galaxy,
S=star, X=X-ray source, R=radio source, 2=double radio lobes.
- R mag, B
mag -- brightness of this object in red and blue colors respectively,
0=not seen in this color
- com -- comment
on object: p=blue is POSSI-O violet, (no p)=blue is Bj green or
similar, i=red is i, u=blue is u, v=variablility nominally detected,
m=proper motion nominally detected, ?=inferred object, calculated
from combining APM and USNO-A optical catalogs.
- R psf, B
psf -- appearance of object in red and blue colors respectively,
*=stellar, 1=fuzzy, 2=extended, n=no psf, x=not seen in this color.
- Name -- name
of this object from the literature, or IAU name from X-ray/radio
catalog.
- conf assoc
-- confidence that this optical object is the true source of the
X-ray or radio detection that we list with it. This is the published
figure from the QORG catalog, except for XMM or CXOMP X-ray objects
which are calculated using the identical technique as used in
QORG.
- QSO pct --
confidence that this optical object is a QSO specifically, calculated
as in (10) above.
- z -- the
redshift of this object, from the literature. NBCKDE redshifts
are photometric only, and rounded to tenths, e.g. 1.700.
- flux -- if
a radio source, in mJy; if an X-ray source, in counts per hour
as listed in ROSAT/CXOMP, XMM normalised to ROSAT (div by 3.5).
