Table information for 'personal.ts_ssa'

General

Table Description: This table contains metadata for the photometric time series from personal collections in IVOA SSA format. The actual data is available through a datalink service.

This table is available for ADQL queries and through the TAP endpoint.

Resource Description: This project is dedicated to publishing observations of variable stars, in particular light curves, from personal archives. All data has been published with the permission of the respective owners.

For a list of all services and tables belonging to this table's resource, see Information on resource 'Observations from personal collections'
