Fields
Source_Name
0FGL JHHMM.m+DDMM, constructed according to IAU Specifications for Nomenclature; m is decimal minutes of R.A.; in the name R.A. and decl. are truncated at 0.1 decimal minutes and 1' , respectively
- RA
Right Ascension, J2000, deg, 3 decimal places
- DEC
Declination, J2000, deg, 3 decimal places
- GLON
Galactic Longitude, deg, 3 decimal places
- GLAT
Galactic Latitude, deg, 3 decimal places
- Conf_95_Radius
Radius of 95% confidence region, deg, 3 decimal places
- Sqrt_TS
Square root of likelihood TS from 200 MeV - 100 GeV analysis, used for the TS > 100 cut, 1 decimal place
- Flux_100_1000
Flux 100 MeV to 1 GeV (i.e., log_10 E = 2-3), 10^-8 cm^-2 s^-1, 2 decimal places
- Unc_Flux100_1000
1 sigma uncertainty on F_23, same units and precision. A 0 in this column indicates that the entry in the F_23 flux column is an upper limit.
- Flux1000_100000
Flux for 1 GeV to 100 GeV (i.e., log_10 E = 3-5), 10^-8 cm^-2 s^-1, 2 decimal places
- Unc_Flux1000_100000
1 sigma uncertainty on F_35, same units and precision.
- Variability_Flag
T indicates < 1% chance of being a steady source on a weekly timescale
- Sqrt_TS23
Square root of TS for the 100 MeV to 1 GeV range, 1 decimal place
- Sqrt_TS35
Square root of TS for the 1 GeV to 100 GeV range, 1 decimal place
- ASSOC_GAM1
Identification or positional associations with 3EG, EGR, or AGILE sources
- ASSOC_GAM2
Identification or positional associations with 3EG, EGR, or AGILE sources
- ASSOC_GAM3
Identification or positional associations with 3EG, EGR, or AGILE sources
- CLASS1
Class designation for associated source. Capital letters indicate firm identifications; lower-case letters indicate associations: Pulsar (PSR), Pulsar wind nebula (pwn), High-mass X-ray binary (hxb), BL Lac type of blazar (bzb), FSRQ type of blazar (bzq), Uncertain type of blazar (bzu), Radio galaxy (rdg), Globular cluster (glb), Special case - potential association with SNR or PWN (x), Unassociated ( ).
- CLASS2
2nd class designation for associated source
- ASSOC1
Name of identified or likely associated source
- ASSOC2
Alternate name of identified or likely associated source
