Output Files

1. A FITS dataset which contains a list of simulated sources in a table named SRCLIST. This file is written to the simgensubdir subdirectory. The SRCLIST table contains the following columns:
   • INDEX
   • FLUX
   • RA
   • DEC
   • FLUXRAND
   • STREAM_N
   • FIELD_N
   • INV_SENSY
   • DET_SRC_ID

   All these except for the last are described in section 4.3.1. The last column is added during the comparison process (section 4.3.9).
