Fields

Source_Name

0FGL JHHMM.m+DDMM, constructed according to IAU Specifications for Nomenclature; m is decimal minutes of R.A.; in the name R.A. and decl. are truncated at 0.1 decimal minutes and 1' , respectively

RA

Right Ascension, J2000, deg, 3 decimal places

DEC

Declination, J2000, deg, 3 decimal places

GLON

Galactic Longitude, deg, 3 decimal places

GLAT

Galactic Latitude, deg, 3 decimal places

Conf_95_Radius

Radius of 95% confidence region, deg, 3 decimal places

Sqrt_TS

Square root of likelihood TS from 200 MeV - 100 GeV analysis, used for the TS > 100 cut, 1 decimal place

Flux_100_1000

Flux 100 MeV to 1 GeV (i.e., log_10 E = 2-3), 10^-8 cm^-2 s^-1, 2 decimal places

Unc_Flux100_1000

1 sigma uncertainty on F_23, same units and precision. A 0 in this column indicates that the entry in the F_23 flux column is an upper limit.

Flux1000_100000

Flux for 1 GeV to 100 GeV (i.e., log_10 E = 3-5), 10^-8 cm^-2 s^-1, 2 decimal places

Unc_Flux1000_100000

1 sigma uncertainty on F_35, same units and precision.

Variability_Flag

T indicates < 1% chance of being a steady source on a weekly timescale

Sqrt_TS23

Square root of TS for the 100 MeV to 1 GeV range, 1 decimal place

Sqrt_TS35

Square root of TS for the 1 GeV to 100 GeV range, 1 decimal place

ASSOC_GAM1

Identification or positional associations with 3EG, EGR, or AGILE sources

ASSOC_GAM2

Identification or positional associations with 3EG, EGR, or AGILE sources

ASSOC_GAM3

Identification or positional associations with 3EG, EGR, or AGILE sources

CLASS1

Class designation for associated source. Capital letters indicate firm identifications; lower-case letters indicate associations: Pulsar (PSR), Pulsar wind nebula (pwn), High-mass X-ray binary (hxb), BL Lac type of blazar (bzb), FSRQ type of blazar (bzq), Uncertain type of blazar (bzu), Radio galaxy (rdg), Globular cluster (glb), Special case - potential association with SNR or PWN (x), Unassociated ( ).

CLASS2

2nd class designation for associated source

ASSOC1

Name of identified or likely associated source

ASSOC2

Alternate name of identified or likely associated source
