Observations COMMENT are sorted in order of increasing pixel number. COMMENT It is possible to have multiple observations of a pixel COMMENT within a day: these multiple observations are listed in COMMENT consecutive rows within the table and are COMMENT sorted in order of ascending observation time. COMMENT Reconstruction of time-ordered data strings may be COMMENT accomplished either through use of the TIME field COMMENT or the PREV_OBS/NEXT_OBS fields. COMMENT The companion Pixel Index to this day's data COMMENT may be used to determine quickly which pixels were COMMENT observed on this day and where data for specific pixels COMMENT are located within this file. COMMENT COMMENT Although observations are sorted using the DIRBE COMMENT (resolution 9) pixel number (PIXEL_NO), the position COMMENT of the boresight at the time of observation may be COMMENT reconstructed to a precision of ~20 arcsec by using the COMMENT additional pointing information provided in fields COMMENT PSUBPOS and PSBSBPOS. See the COBE/DIRBE Explanatory COMMENT Supplement description of this product (Chapter 5) for COMMENT further details. COMMENT COMMENT Before using the photometric data, the user should examine COMMENT the corresponding data quality flags. Observations COMMENT which occurred within the SAA, non-sky-survey mode data, COMMENT or time periods during which none of the DIRBE detectors met COMMENT quality standards have already been excluded from this product. COMMENT However, time periods during which data from some, but not all, COMMENT detectors are of low quality are included. In many of COMMENT these cases, the low quality detector data have been COMMENT replaced with a sentinel value to guard against inadvertent COMMENT use. There are some instances when low quality data have COMMENT neither been removed nor sentinelized. These include: COMMENT 1) intervals of excess noise for isolated detectors, COMMENT such as Band 1b lunar effects, and the occasional COMMENT microphonics noted especially in Bands 4 and 7. COMMENT The XSNOISE detector flags are included to COMMENT indicate affected observations. COMMENT 2) observations contaminated by stray light from COMMENT the Moon or Jupiter. The MOON2LOS and JUP2LOS COMMENT fields can be used to eliminate these data. COMMENT COMMENT Unlike the higher level DIRBE data products COMMENT (e.g., the DIRBE Weekly Maps, Calibrated Annual File, COMMENT Maps at Solar Elongation Angle = 90 degrees, COMMENT Galactic Plane Maps, Annual Average Maps), COMMENT the Calibrated Individual Observations product INCLUDES COMMENT data from those portions of the sky which contain COMMENT Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Juno, Vesta, Ceres, COMMENT Pallas, or comets Austin, Levy, and Okazaki-Levy-Rudenko. COMMENT The JUP2LOS field indicates when Jupiter was visible; COMMENT locations of other objects can be computed using an COMMENT external ephemeris. COMMENT COMMENT The foreground signal from Zodiacal dust has not been COMMENT removed from the observations.
