12Y-MST (Twelve year Minimum Spanning Tree)
Write:<<12Y-MST JHHMM+DDMM>>
N: 1664
Object:Poss. Gamma  (SIMBAD class: gamma = Gamma-ray Source)
Note:Catalogue of N=1664 gamma-ray source candidates selected using the minimum spanning tree (MST) algorithm on the twelve year Fermi-LAT sky (Pass 8) at energies higher than 10GeV. The high-energy sky at absolute Galactic latitudes above 20° has been investigate using rather restrictive selection criteria.
