Abstract:
This catalogue contains a complete list of all Jupiter decameter (DAM)
emissions recorded on the Nancay Spectrograph, over the period January
1978 to December 1990. A brief description of the equipment and its
characteristics are presented. The observing program and the
limitations arising from day-time observations are developed. A list
of observing times as well as histograms showing the occurrence
probability of emission are also given.

The versions has been prepared and curated by B. Cecconi and L.
Debisschop, at LESIA, Observatoire de Paris. They used an online OCR
(Optical Character Recognition) tool (available at:
https://www.onlineocr.net) for the initial conversion of NASA/ADS
raster scans. They reformatted the table and validated the content.
The tables provided are formatted as described in Leblanc et al.
(1981A&AS...46..135L 1981A&AS...46..135L). In these table, the columns 1 to 12 are
describing the observations, while columns 13 to 22 are describing the
observed features (radio emissions).
If the observation columns are repteated, it means that several
features have been observed for the same observation.
Coverage and sampling:
- Time range: 1978-01-03 to 1990-12-31
- Spectral range: 10MHz to 40MHz
