Cat of Stellar Lyman-Alpha Fluxes

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The data file gives the measured Lyman alpha flux or upper limits for 275 stars as derived from IUE spectra.

Description

The file is a subset of Table 1 of Landsman and Simon in that when a star had multiple measurements, only the best measurement is included in this table. The spectral types, V and B-V magnitudes in the table are culled from various sources as described in the paper.

Most of the measurements are derived from low-dispersion spectra, and those derived from high-dispersion spectra are flagged. Each measurement was assigned a data quality code according to the signal to noise after removal of the diffuse Lyman alpha background emission. -1 - upper limit 1 - good quality 2 - fair quality 3 - poor quality 4 - contains saturated pixels The final column gives the ratio of the Ly alpha flux to the total bolometric flux of the star, determined as described in the paper.

A roundoff was applied to the fluxes listed here to give the fluxes listed in Table 1 of Landsman and Simon.
