The Spitzer Spectroscopic Data Fusion - Merged Spectroscopic Redshift Catalogs in Spitzer Fields

Authors/Creators

  • 1. University of the Western Cape

Description

Merged Spec-Z ("specz-merged") catalogs merge miscellaneous spec-z information available within a given field. Different spec-z catalogs available within a given field are merged (using a search radius of 0.5 arcsec), and for sources with multiple spec-z measurements, the most reliable one is chosen following the (assumed) order of decreasing reliability below. ZBEST is thus the most reliable spec-z and ZFLAG specifies which catalog is providing the ZBEST value according to the CATN number below. ZCLASS is meant to provide further info about the class/quality of the spectroscopic redshift measurement, but for the time being, is not populated and is simply a copy of ZFLAG. ZWHERE is an additional binary/bit flag indicating in which of the N catalogs each source was given a spec-z estimate.
