Notes: This table stores summary information for each subscan (as defined in the ALMA glossary). It gives a mean to get some basic informations in the context of the project structure, The TIME,INTERVAL pair of attributes allows to know which part of the MAIN table is relevant for a given subscan.


EXECUTE_ID Identifier pointing to one row in the EXECUTE_SUMMARY table.

SCAN_NUMBER Scan number, as enumerated during the execution of the Executing Block. The pair EXECUTE_ID,SCAN_NUMBER used as a key corresponds to a single row in the SCAN_SUMMARY table.

NUM_INTEGRATION Number of integrations for this subscan.

TIME Time mid-point interval. The same reference used for the TIME column in the MAIN must be used.

INTERVAL Time interval. This is the difference between the end and begin TIME of the subscan

SUBSCAN_NUMBER Subscan number. The enumeration is relative to a SCAN as it was enumerated during the execution of the SchedulingBlock.

SUBSCAN_INTENT Intent with the subscan. This item is present here to allow querying data by accessing efficiently the MAIN table.

OBS_MODE Observing mode. This item is present here to allow querying data by accessing efficiently the MAIN table. This OBS_MODE is a duplicate of the OBS_MODE which is in the STATE table.

NUM_SUBINTEG Number of sub-integrations for each integration.

FLAG_ROW True if data in this row are invalid, else False. Does not imply flagging in the MAIN.
