DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION
Data Set Overview : NASA's International Halley Watch (IHW) has created a Comet Halley Archive. The collection of data spans the full wavelength range as submitted by scientists to the IHW. The observations belong to one of the following Disciplines: Amateur, Astrometry, Infrared Studies, Large-Scale Phenomena, Meteor Studies, Near-Nucleus Studies, Photometry and Polarimetry, Radio Studies, and Spectroscopy and Spectrophotometry. The data collected by these nine disciplines were augmented by Spacecraft measurements. The data were submitted to IHW, but the evaluation and selection for the Archive has been the primary responsibility of the Discipline Specialist Teams for each network in cooperation with the Lead Center. The Photometry and Polarimetry Network collected 18495 fluxes for the Narrowband Photometry Subnetwork. These data span the dates from 1985 August 24 to 1987 March 04.   Processing Level Id : 3 Software Flag : N   Parameters : Data Set Parameter Name : FLUX Data Set Parameter Unit : ERG/SEC*CM**2(A)   Description ----------- A measure of the flow of something through unit area in unit time. Examples include the number of photons passing through a square centimeter each second or the number of electrons passing through a square meter per second or the amount of energy per unit area per unit time. The quantity being measured need not be quantized. The quantity being measured may be further delimited, such as the flux per unit wavelength or the flux per unit frequency in the case of electromagnetic radiation. It may also be delimited by the range of directions over which the flux is collected.
