+# EHT Sagittarius A&ast; Polarized Data
+
+**Authors:** The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration et al.
+
+**Date:** March 27, 2024
+
+**Primary Reference:** [The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration, et al. 2024b, ApJL, 964, L25 (Sgr A&ast; Paper VII)](https://doi.org/10.3847/2041-8213/ad2df0)
+
+**Data Product Code:** [2024-D02-01](https://eventhorizontelescope.org/for-astronomers/data)
+
+**Brief Description:**
+
+We release a calibrated polarimetric data set to accompany tthe First SgrA&ast; Event
+Horizon Telescope Polarization Results paper series (EHT Collaboration et al. 2024b,c).
+The data set is derived from the Rev7 Correlation of the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT)'s
+April 2017 observation campaign (EHT Collaboration et al. 2019c), with further processing
+and science validation as described in EHT Collaboration et al. 2022b.
+
+This data set contains Sagittarius A&ast; (Sgr A&ast;) data for both low and high bands for
+two observed days (April 6th and 7th, 2017). This release includes the fringe fitted,
+a-priori calibrated, and network calibrated data from both the EHT-HOPS and rPICARD (CASA)
+pipelines, which are used in the First Sgr A&ast; EHT results, with the addition of absolute
+EVPA calibration from ALMA, parallactic angle rotation, and D-term calibration using the
+M87-derived leakage solutions (EHT Collaboration et al. 2021a). Independent flux calibration
+is performed based on estimated station sensitvities during the campaign (Issaoun et al. 2017,
+Janssen et al. 2019, Wielgus et al. 2022).  Data were further calibrated to apply polarimetric
+gains to remove R-L gain offsets, amplitude gains obtained from calibrators, amplitude gains
+on LMT for its rapid gain fluctuations, and phase gains on JCMT for its residual phase
+fluctuations. A description of the data properties, their validation, and estimated systematic
+errors is given in M87 Paper III and Sgr A* Paper II and Paper III with additional details in
+Wielgus et al. (2019) and Wielgus et al. (2022). The data are time averaged to 10 seconds and
+frequency averaged over all 32 intermediate frequencies (IFs). The R/L complex gains have been
+calibrated assuming the intrinsic Stokes V visibilities are zero.
