Quality flag for redshift catalog

The quality of the redshift estimate must be interpreted differently depending on whether the user is interested in a specific type of object. Indeed, for a user interested in Halpha emitters, the failure of the star classification algorithm may not be a significant quality criterion. Users are therefore advised to :

  • Check the SPE_ERROR_FLAG flag value. The value of the SPE_ERROR_FLAG flag should be equal to 0 (see the table dedicated to SPE_ERROR_FLAG for more details on the meaning of flag values).

  • For users interested in galaxy solutions, check the SPE_GAL_ERROR_FLAG flag value. The value of the SPE_GAL_ERROR_FLAG flag should be equal to 0 (see the table dedicated to AMAZED_ERROR for more details on the meaning of flag values).

  • For users interested in star solutions, check the value of the SPE_STAR_ERROR_FLAG flag. The value of the SPE_STAR_ERROR_FLAG flag should be equal to 0 (see the table dedicated to AMAZED_ERROR for more details on the meaning of flag values).

  • For users interested in QSO solutions, check the SPE_QSO_ERROR_FLAG flag value. The value of the SPE_QSO_ERROR_FLAG flag should be equal to 0 (see the table dedicated to AMAZED_ERROR for more details on the meaning of flag values).

Quality flag for lines catalog

The quality flag is always an integer number composed by 3 digits, respectively indicating (from left to right) measure type, measure quality and grism used. It is applicable to Direct Integration and Gaussian Fits methods.

The 1st digit can be:

  • 1 : Direct Integration

  • 2 : Gaussian Fit

  • 3 : Hα_GF for QSOs

  • “-” : the line is outside the redshift range

The 2nd digit can assume one of the following values :

  • 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 9 (see table bellow)

The 3rd digit can be :

  • 1 : Blue grism

  • 2 : Red grism

  • 3 : Blue and red grism

  • 6 : Blue grism and is the best one

  • 7 : Red grism and is the best one

  • 8 : Blue and red grism and is the best one

Description

Applicable to

0

Not measured

The standard pipeline does not provide a measurement (for DI) or a fit (for GF or Hα_QSO).

Possible values for the QualFlag:

101, 102, 201, 202, 301, 302

All

1

Good measure

The measure is considered reliable

Possible values for the QualFlag:

111, 112, 211, 212, 311, 312

All

2

Low SNR

The measure might be good but the line has a low SNR. (SNR < 2.0).

Possible values for the QualFlag:

121, 122, 221, 222, 321, 322

All

3

EW > 0

The EW has a positive value (probably due to a negative continuum). The value is set to zero but the other measures (e.g. fluxes) are however reported.

Possible values for the QualFlag:

231, 232, 331, 332

GF or Hα_QSO

5

Acceptable

The measure is acceptable but up to 15% of the pixels within the line are missing.

Possible values for the QualFlag:

251, 252, 351, 352

GF or Hα_QSO

8

Unreliable or wrong fluxes

The measure is unreliable because more than 15% of the pixels are missing (GF or QSO) or it’s wrong because more than 1 pixel is missing (DI).

Possible values for the QualFlag:

181, 182, 281, 282, 381, 382

All

9

Outside range

The line is not measurable in the redshift range.

Possible values for the QualFlag:
