################################################################################### This Readme file contains a description of the M100 Band 3 12-m array Science Verification data, scripts and data products. A description of all the M100 (12m, 7m and TP) data can be found at: https://casaguides.nrao.edu/index.php/M100_Band3 Spectral windows include the CO J=1-0 line (rest frequency 115.271 GHz). Additional information can be found at: http://almascience.org/alma-data/science-verification The Calibrated Data and Reference Images listed below were produced using CASA version 5.1.1. ################################################################################### M100_Band3_12m_UncalibratedData.tgz contains the raw data: 3 asdm datasets: * uid___A002_X273b43_X146 * uid___A002_X2a5c2f_X220 * uid___A002_X2a5c2f_X54 M100_Band3_12m_CalibrationScripts.tgz contains the calibration scripts that should be run on the raw asdm data contained in M100_Band3_12m_UncalibratedData.tgz: * uid___A002_X273b43_X146.ms.scriptForCalibration.py * uid___A002_X2a5c2f_X220.ms.scriptForCalibration.py * uid___A002_X2a5c2f_X54.ms.scriptForCalibration.py M100_Band3_12m_CalibratedData.tgz contains the calibrated uv-data and a mask that can be used for the CLEAN steps: * M100_Band3_12m_CalibratedData.ms * M100_12m_CO_demo.mask This file is produced by executing the calibration scripts in M100_Band3_12m_CalibrationScripts.tgz on the raw asdms. M100_Band3_12m_Imaging.py This is the imaging script and should be run on the calibrated data contained in M100_Band3_12m_CalibratedData.tgz to produce the image products contained in M100_Band3_12m_ReferenceImages.tgz. M100_Band3_12m_ReferenceImages.tgz contains the CO J=1-0 spectral line image products: * M100_12m_CO.pb * M100_12m_CO.image * M100_12m_CO.image.mom0 * M100_12m_CO.image.mom0.pbcor.fits * M100_12m_CO.image.mom1.fits * M100_12m_CO.pb.fits * M100_12m_CO.image.fits * M100_12m_CO.image.mom0.fits * M100_12m_CO.image.mom1 * M100_12m_CO.image.pbcor.mom0 --------------------------------------------------------------- Publications making use of these data must include the following statement in the acknowledgement: "This paper makes use of the following ALMA data: ADS/JAO.ALMA#2011.0.00004.SV.
