nightzp1.png
zeropoints from identified stars of all observed fields
QC1PARAM QC1 parameters written in QC1 database:
QC1 DB names: num_stars | num_fields | zeropoint | sigma_zeropoint | ext_coeff_used | sig_ext_coeff | col_term_used | sig_col_term | colour
All parameters are calculated by the pipeline recipe.
ALGORITHM Description of algorithms:
num_stars: number of stars used in zeropoint computation
num_fields: number of fields used in zeropoint computation
zeropoint: averaged zeropoint of the night (in ADU)
sigma_zeropoint: error of night zeropoint
ext_coeff_used: fixed value
sig_ext_coeff: n/a
col_term_used: fixed value
sig_col_term: n/a
colour: colour used
CERTIF Reasons for rejection:
only in case of severe instrumental failure
