The TargetHalo view contains the master target list of stars observed in the GES Halo programme. |
The TargetHalo view is the master target list of stars observed in the GES Halo/Thick Disc programme. For each star, in addition to the identifier and celestial coordinates, some summary parameters derived from analysis of the spectra are included for convenience. The Halo/Thick Disc target list was defined by the GES Consortium. The details and SQL SELECT corresponding to this view are available here. |
