McGregor and Mark G. Allen. Each subdirectory contains data for one night. A more specific description of the state of the data is given below. Processing ========== The images have 256x256 pixels with a pixel size of 0.25arcsec x 0.25arcsec on the sky. Celestial north is up and east to the left when displayed with IRAF. The images have been bias subtracted, corrected for detector non-linearities, flat-fielded, sky-subtracted, bad pixel corrected by interpolation, and scaled to an effective exposure time of 1 sec. Strictly, the data are in units of detected electrons above sky per sec per pixel. Files with an 's' suffix either have had a residual odd-even column bias pattern removed, or a constant value determined from a clear sky region has been subtracted. Files with a 'c' suffix have also had ghost reflections partially removed using imedit in IRAF. No airmass-dependent corrections have been applied. Ancillary Data ============== Two offset measurements were obtained of each standard star. The difference images of these standard star measurements are contained in ddnnnmmm.fit files where dd is the day, nnn is the run number of the added image and mmm is the run number of the subtracted image. The Jupiter data have not been flux calibrated, but these standard star measurements can be used to do so. Recommended atmospheric extinction coefficients are listed in Table 1. Recommended narrow band standard star magnitudes are listed in Table 2. Broad band standard stars have the following magnitudes: HD129540 K=8.25, Kn=8.25; HD193727 K=8.78, Kn=8.78; BS4450 M=1.40; BS6147 M=2.20. Table 1.

Data structure ============== The data are in fits files with the following header entries. Keywords not listed here should be ignored. All data are normalised to an exposure time of 1 second specified by the EXPOSURE keyword. All frames are oriented north up and east to the left; the POS_ANG keyword has only instrumental significance. The IRAFNAME keyword uniquely identifies the file, being derived from the original run number listed in the RUN keyword.
