A value of -9 means no data available.<br /> *Some of the objects only have limits, e.g., the true flux is somewhere above or below the number that is tabulated, as indicated by the greater than or less than sign. For objects where there are some limits, there is an equals sign where there is a real detection so that you can get the column importation correct.<br /> *The objects outside the Spitzer dataset are only those that have 4 bands of WISE coverage, because the WISE paper above only considered objects seen in all four WISE bands. See the WISE paper above for an indication of the footprints.<br /> *There are optical data for a lot of these objects; where I have it, it's in the catalog.<br /> *There are only fluxes provided in the file, all in microJy.<br /> *There is information at the top of the file to help you convert magnitudes from the fluxes provided. Or, you can get the magnitudes out of the papers above. See [[Units]] and [[Central wavelengths and zero points]] for more information on that.<br /> *The file above is an IPAC table file, which is a plain text file. You can read a plain text file with nearly any editor but this file has a LOT of columns, so you probably want to open it with something that doesn't wrap the lines. You can import into Excel so that you can manipulate the columns.<br /> *[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCJ3ctOGvNk YouTube video] on what tbl files are, how to access them, and specifically how to import tbl files into xls. (10min)<br /> *This file includes young stars identified via a wide variety of means, not just IR excess. Some of the young stars here do not have IR excesses. You will not be able to find new young stars that don't have IR excesses by searching in the IR. You will need to use something else, like X-rays or Halpha, to find those objects.
