DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION
Data Set Overview
  =================
    This is a compilation of published lightcurve results up through 20
    October, 1997.  This compilation is maintained by Alan Harris, JPL.
 
    Modification History
    --------------------
      The lc data set was first introduced into PDS at the April 1994
      asteroid datasets review.  It was subsequently updated at the
      March 1996 review, and at the April 1999 review.
 
 
  Parameters
  ==========
    This data set includes one entry for each asteroid for which
    lightcurve observations have been made.  Each entry gives the
    following parameters: rotation period; minimum and maximum amplitude
    of lightcurve; reliability code; and references to the published
    papers reporting the observations.
 
 
  Data
  ====
    The derived lightcurve data are provided in the file 'LC.TAB'.
 
 
  Ancillary Data
  ==============
    The data file gives reference codes indicating the published papers
    reporting lightcurve observations on each asteroid.  The full
    citations corresponding to these codes are given in the file
    'LCREF.TAB'.

Confidence Level Overview
  =========================
    The confidence level of each entry in the data set is indicated by a
    quality code.  This quality code is described in the associated data
    label, 'LC.LBL'.
 
 
  Review
  ======
    This data set underwent external peer review on Apr. 9, 1999.
