SWAS 10th Release Data

THE TENTH PUBLIC DATA RELEASE FOR THE SWAS MISSION

The 10th SWAS public data release consists of a complete
set of SWAS data from mission day 0049 (the first day of
usable science data) to mission day 2089.  [Mission day 0001
as November 01, 1998.]

This data distribution does not represent a contiguous
set of mission days.  The observing history at the end of
the nominal science mission in 2004 is summarized below.

       DOM 1693-1859 : Normal SWAS 24/7 observations
                       through Dec 4, 2003

                       On Dec 4, 2003 SWAS was placed in
                       inertial sunpoint mode (ISP) with laser
                       diode #2 on the acoustic-optical
                       spectrometer turned off to preserve
                       the limited lifetime of this degrading
                       instrument component

       DOM 1900-1906 : Jan 14, 2004 - Jan 20, 2004 Special Venus
                       observing campaign #1

                       On Jan 20, 2004 SWAS was placed back into
                       ISP with laser diode #2 turned off

       DOM 1943-1958 : Feb 26, 2004 - Mar 12, 2004 Special Venus
                       observing campaign #2

                       On Mar 12, 2004 SWAS was placed back into
                       ISP with laser diode #2 turned off

       DOM 2067-2089 : Jun 29, 2004 - Jul 21, 2004 Special Venus
                       observing campaign #3

                       On Jul 21, 2004 SWAS was placed back into
                       ISP with laser diode #2 turned off.

PREVIOUSLY ESTABLISHED ISSUES WITH DATA FILES:

public data release, there was a problem with duplicate entries in the FITS-format archive. Individual positions of many sources appear to have duplicate, identical grand co-adds for each spectral line within the FITS file and the dimensionality of the FITS file was 2 instead of 1 (in other words, the 1-D line spectra are 725x2 in dimension instead of 725x1). This was caused by an error in one of our post-pipeline software modules.

The SWAS-Science Operations Center (SWAS-SOC) and the Legacy Archive for Microwave Background Data Analysis (LAMBDA) have worked together to correct this problem in the 10th release. All of the FITS-format spectra are now 1-D spectra (as they should be!) and the redundant data, extra dimensionality, and erroneous FITS keywords in the image headers have been removed and corrected.
