Fermi LAT Weekly Data
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
The Fermi LAT Weekly Data database table provides access to LAT data binned into weekly files by the FSSC's data servers.
Description
For each week, the FSSC provides two FITS files: an all-sky file of photons containing positions, energies, etc. and a spacecraft pointing history file. The underscore separated fields in the file names indicate the file type (photon or spacecraft), the Fermi mission week (e.g., w009 = week 9), the processing version (which will change with each major reprocessing of LAT data), and a version number for the file itself.
Note that currently the data may include events from slightly after the official week boundaries, which will be reflected in the start and stop times in the table. Any "run" of LAT data the FSSC receives that starts in a given week is put into the weekly file for that week and not broken up. Note additional selections must be applied to the weekly files prior to use in a data analysis.

This database table is created by the HEASARC from FITS tables received from the Fermi Science Support Center (FSSC). It is updated on a weekly basis. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
