Files Contained in the RDF Packet

 

The RDF filenames are in the form



For instance, tex2html_wrap_inline19296 is a possible RDF filename.

The <root_name> can be any out of the following list:

tabular10601

where # is a sequence number.

The files contained in a single RDF file are listed in the following. The names used here to indicate them, are those generated by the EXSAS command INTAPE/RDF with the "keep" flag set to 1 or 2. They can also be generated via the MIDAS command

INTAPE/FITS 1 <root_name> <observation_id>_<root_name>.fits

For instance:

INTAPE/FITS 1 bas rp110590n00_bas.fits

Note, that in the present document the RDF files are listed according to their physical structure on tape, i.e. they are grouped in separate sections which have been conventionally labeled as ``basic'', ``ancillary'' or ``derived''. In most cases such denomination does indeed reflect the logical meaning of the files contained in the section, with a few exceptions: as in the case of the ASCII files containing the data processing log, which could be expected perhaps in the ancillary section (and not in the derived one); or for the table of uncorrected photon parameters, also contained in the derived section even if a more logical location might be the basic one.
