The Variability table contains statistics from the set of observations of each source. At present, the mean ra and dec and the error in two tangential directions are calculated. The "ra" direction is defined as tangential to both the radial direction and the cartesian z-axis and the "dec" direction is defined as both the radial direction and the "ra" direction. Since the current model is just the mean and standard deviation of the data, then the chi-squared of the fit=1. Data from good frames across all bands go into the astrometric model determination. This will include bands in non-synoptic filters: the one observation in these bands can help. In future releases a fit will be made to the rms data as a function of magnitude in each band, as has already happened for photometric data and a motion model that incorporates proper motion (and possibly parallax) will be used. The motion model is a parameter in the VarFrameSetInfo table.

sigra_pm allwise_sc2 WISE One-sigma uncertainty in right ascension from the profile-fitting measurement model that includes motion. This column is null if the motion-fit failed to converge or was not attempted. float 8 arcsec    
sigradec allwise_sc2 WISE The co-sigma of the equatorial position uncertainties, sigra, sigdec (σα, σδ). The covariance between the position errors, Vαδ, can be derived from the quoted co-sigma, σαδ, by the formula Vαδ = σαδ×|σαδ|. This maintains the sign information for the covariance since σαδ may be negative. It is more natural to carry the co-sigma along with the other uncertainties instead of the covariance because the former is in the same units as the other uncertainties. float 8 arcsec

This maintains the sign information for the covariance since σα_pmδ_pm may be negative.

Each merged source in the merged source tables come from a set of individual passband frames (with different filters and/or different epochs of observation). In the WSA, a frame is generally the image provided by one detector (dither-stacked and interlaced as appropriate); hence a frame set comprises a set of individual detector frames in different passbands and/or at different observation epochs. Each frame set is uniquely identified by the attribute frameSetID, and this references a row in the corresponding merge log for the source table (for example, lasSource.frameSetID references lasMergeLog.frameSetID. The merge log in turn references the full set of image descriptive data held in the tables MultiframeDetector and ultimately Multiframe (these two tables map directly onto the multi-extension FITS file hierarchy of extension FITS headers beneath a single primary HDU FITS header - primary HDU FITS keys will be found in Multiframe, while the corresponding extension FITS keys for each primary set will be found in table MultiframeDetector). In this way, you can trace the provenance of a merged source record right back to the individual image frames from which it is derived.

SYSERR twoxmm, twoxmm_v1_2, twoxmmi_dr3_v1_0 XMM The systematic 1 σ error on the detection position in arcseconds. It is set to be 0.35 arcsec if the SAS task eposcorr results in a statistically reliable cross-correlation with USNO B1.0 optical catalogue. Otherwise the error is 1.0 arsec. real 4 arcsec    
SYSERR xmm3dr4 XMM The estimated 1 σ error arising from the field rectification process (in arcseconds). If the SAS task catcorr results in a statistically reliable cross-correlation with the USNO B1.0, 2MASS or SDSS (DR8) optical/IR catalogues, SYSERRCC combines the errors on the translational shifts in the RA (rashift_error) and DEC (decshift_error) directions, together with the rotational error component, derived from from the catalogue that yields the 'best' solution, as follows: SYSERRCC = SQRT ( rashift_error² + decshift_error² + (r * thetarot_error)² ) where r is the radial off-axis angle of the detection from the spacecraft boresight in arcsecs and thetarot_error is the error on the rotational correction (in radians). Where catcorr fails to obtain a statistically reliable result, SYSERRCC is 1.5 arcseconds (see Sec. 3XMM-DR4 UG, Sec. 3.4 for details). Note that rashift_error, decshift_error and thetarot_error are not provided separately in the catalogue. real 4 arcsec
