This dataset contains this README, and several ascii files with data formats explained below.
losvd_data.csv:
This file contains line-of-sight velocity distributions (LOSVDs) for the galaxy NGC 4826 taken from HST/STIS and HET/LRS as explained in the associated paper. Columns of this file are:
spatial_bin_index: index indicating which spatial bin the LOSVD belongs to. Corresponds to coordinates given in losvd_spat_bins.csv. Indexing starts at 1 because the program was written in FORTRAN 77. values 1--8 correspond to HST spectra. Values 9--38 correspond to HET spectra.
velocity_bin_index: index indicating which velocity bin the line belongs to,
velocity: central velocity of the velocity bin in km/s
f: distribution function value (arbitrary units)
f_upper: The 1-sigma upper bound on f,
f_lower: The 1-sigma lower bound on f
losvd_spat_bins.csv:
This file contains coordinates and information for the spatial bins of the LOSVDs. Coordinates are given in x and y, relative to the center of the galaxy defined by the dispersion peak of the galaxy, and the major axis of the galaxy corresponds to y=0. Units of coordinates are arcsec. Spatial bins are only defined for the upper-right quadrant as symmetry is assumed. Columns of this file are:
spatial_bin_index: index indicating which spatial bin the LOSVD belongs to. LOSVD values are given in losvd_data.csv. Indexing starts at 1 because the program was written in FORTRAN 77. values 1--8 correspond to HST spectra. Values 1 and 2 correspond to bins that were taken from the negative-x side of the galaxy (West?) but have been flipped (appropriately changed in the LOSVD data as well) to the positive side for symmetry. Values 9--38 correspond to HET spectra.
x_center: x-coordinate of bin
y_center: y-coordinate of bin
instr_code: 1 = HST data, 2 = HET data
x_min: min x-coord of spatial bin (if x_max = -1 width of bin is half-way between neighboring bins)
x_max: max x-coord of spatial bin (if x_max = -1 width of bin is half-way between neighboring bins)
y_min: min y-coord of spatial bin
y_max: max y-coord of spatial bin
