LAT Data Products
The following tables list the science data products created by the LISOC (the LAT Instrument and Science Operation Center) and provided to the FSSC.
High-level Data Products
- LAT Monitored Source List
- LAT Monitored Source List Light Curves
- LAT Pulsar Ephemerides
- LAT Burst Catalog
- LAT 2-year Point Source Catalog
- LAT 1-year Point Source Catalog
- LAT Bright Source List
- LAT Background Models
Daily Data Products
The following data products are created daily by the LISOC and sent to the FSSC. The products are create after each downlink from the spacecraft (6-8 per day).
| ID | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| LS-001 | LAT Events | Large number of parameters describing a large subset of the events telemetered to the ground (many did not result from photons). | LS-002 | LAT photons | Selected parameters from the subset of events identified as gamma-ray photons | LS-005 | LAT Pointing and Livetime History | LAT orientation and mode at 30 s intervals; used to calculate exposures |
Periodic Data Products
The following data products will be created periodically.
| ID | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| LS-008 | LAT Point Source Catalog | Table of detected gamma-ray sources with derived information |
| LS-009 | LAT Burst Catalog | List and characterization of gamma-ray bursts: location, duration, intensity |
| LS-010 | Interstellar Emission Model | Model for diffuse gamma-ray emission from the Milky Way, input for high-level data analysis; will be refined using Fermi data |
The LAT Point Source Catalog will be released for the 1-year, 2-year, and 5-year datasets. The Interstellar Emission Model (LS-010) is incorporated into the the Fermi Science Tools). However, investigators may occasionally need to obtain updates of this model from the FSSC web site.
