Interesting Objects Observations

1. General idea

Currently night data is used to trace group of interesting objects. Database table InterestingObjects was used for this purpose , interesting
objects are loaded to this table with value of io_type field specific for given class of objects , current list of values is summarized here.
In case one wants to follow new class of objects this objects should be loaded to table InterestingObjects in database aver20_2006@pi1.lco.cl.
Then system will automatically matches ( daily - see crontab on pi1 script run_io_match.sh )  objects from table InterestingObjects to stars in pi catalog and synchronizer program ( get_io.sh,  synch_interesting.pl ) started on heplx40 will get information to aver20_2006@heplx40.fuw.edu.pl database.
In next step possiblity of tracing objects in scan catalog will be added.

2. Currently followed objects :

NEW : Actually updateded lists of interesting objects are available here aver20@pi1 ( from pi1:/data1/results/PI_PIPELINE/dbdump/OLD ) and scan@pi2 . This is updated daily from pi1 dump.
Uses scripts io_list.php and io_details.php

3. Flare finder algorithm

Flare finder algorithm is working on pi1 machine on database aver20_2006 - it starts at 17 LCO TIME after cataloging is finished.
It is refreshed to hoza at 2:00 AM ( previous night ) :
In order to view list of flares for specified night add : ?night=20060720 , after link to php file in your web browser
