The Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) is a Chinese natonal scientific research facility operated by the National Astronomical Observatories, Chinese Academy of Sciences. It is a special reflecting Schmidt telescope with 4000 fibers in a field of view of 20 deg2 in the sky. Until July 2019, LAMOST has completed its pilot survey, which was launched in October 2011 and ended in June 2012, and the regular survey of the first nine years, which was initiated on September 2012[1-7]. In this data release, there are totally 11,226,252 low resolution spectra published, which satisfy the selection criteria that the LAMOST LRS General Catalog also used. The data products of this release can be available from the website http://www.lamost.org/dr9/v1.0/, and they include：
1. Spectra. - There are 11,226,252 flux (relatively) - and wavelength-calibrated, sky-subtracted spectra, including 10,907,516 stellar spectra, 242,569 galaxy spectra, and 76,167 quasar spectra, and these spectra cover the wavelength range of 3690 Å - 9100 Å with a resolution of 1800[2-3] at the 5500 Å.
2. Spectroscopic Parameter Catalogs. - In this data release, 11 spectroscopic parameter catalogs are also published，and they are the LAMOST LRS General Catalog, the LAMOST LRS Stellar Parameter Catalog of A, F, G and K Stars, the LAMOST LRS Line-Index Catalog of A Type Stars, the LAMOST LRS Catalog of gM, dM, and sdM Stars, the LAMOST LRS Multiple Epoch Catalog, the LAMOST LRS Observed Plate Information Catalog, the LAMOST LRS Input Catalog, the LAMOST LRS Catalog of Cataclysmic Variable Stars, the LAMOST LRS Catalog of White Dwarf Stars, the LAMOST LRS Catalog of Stellar Population Synthesis of Galaxies, and LAMOST LRS Catalog of Emission Line Features of QSOs, respectively. Tens of parameters are included in these catalogs, such as right ascension, declination, signal to noise ratio (S/N), magnitude, gaia_source_id, gaia_g_mean_mag, atmospheric parameters (effective temperature, surface gravity, and metallicity), radial velocity, element abundance, spectral line indices, line widths, the metallicity sensitive parameter, and the magnetic activity flag.
In section 2, we introduce the released FITS file in detail, and present parameter catalogs in section 3.
In this data release, over ten million FITS files are published on-line, and they are named in the form of “spec-MMMMM-YYYY_spXX-FFF.fits”. “MMMMM”, “YYYY”, “XX”, and “FFF” represent the local modified Julian day (LMJD) which is a non-negative integer, the plan identity string (PLANID), the spectrograph identity number which is between 1 and 16, and the fiber identity number which is in the range of 1 to 250[8]. In addition, we can also get the LAMOST designation for an object from the DESIG keyword, and it is named in the form “LAMOST JHHMMSS.ss+DDMMSS.ss”, where “HHMMSS.ss” is right ascension in unit of HMS, and “+DDMMSS.ss” is declination in unit of DMS.
A primary header data unit (HDU), an optional conforming extension, and other optional special records compose a FITS file. The FITS file of each low-resolution spectrum in this data release contains the primary HDU at least, which is followed by a primary data array, and the FITS files of spectra with atmospheric parameters also include the Extension 1.
The primary extension includes the header file and data array. The primary header file consists of eight groups of keywords, and the primary data array stores the flux, wavelength, inverse variance, andmask, and ormask.
Besides a few basic keywords in the header file of extension 1, the atmospheric parameters, radial velocity, alpha element abundance, and their errors were also included. As the primary data array, there are inverse variance, andmask, and ormask in the data array of extension 1. The difference is that the fluxes and wavelengths of the normalized spectra were stored in the data array of extension 1.
The following sub-section 2.3 and 2.4 will introduce the primary extension and extension 1, respectively.
We divided keywords of the primary FITS header into eight groups, and they are mandatory keywords, file information keywords, telescope parameter keywords, observation parameter keywords, spectrograph parameters keywords, weather condition keywords, data reduction parameters keywords and spectra analysis results keywords respectively. We will explain each keyword as follows.
Mandatory keywords are required in every Header Data Unit (HDU), and their value must be written in fixed format.
SIMPLE = T /Primary Header created by MWRFITS v1.11b
BITPIX = -32 /
NAXIS = 2 / Number of array dimensions
NAXIS1 = 3901 /
NAXIS2 = 5 /
EXTEND = T /
SIMPLE Keyword --- It is required to be the first keyword in the primary header of all FITS file. The value field shall contain a logical constant with the value T if the file conforms to this standard. This keyword is mandatory for the primary header and is not permitted in extension headers. A value of F signifies that the file does not conform to this standard.
BITPIX Keyword --- The value field shall contain an integer, and it shall specify the number of bits that represent a data value. A value of -32 represents IEEE single precision floating point.
NAXIS Keyword --- The value field shall contain a non-negative integer no greater than 999, representing the number of axes in the associated data array. A value of zero signifies that no data follow the header in the HDU.
NAXIS1 and NAXIS2 Keywords --- The value field of these two indexed keywords shall contain a non-negative integer, representing the number of elements along axis n of a data array. The NAXIS1 keyword represents the number of wavelength array, i.e., the column number of the primary data array, and the NAXIS2 keyword indicates the row number of the primary data array.
EXTEND Keyword --- The value field shall contain a logical value indicating whether the FITS file is allowed to contain conforming extensions following the primary HDU. This keyword may only appear in the primary header and must not appear in an extension header. If the value field is T then there may be conforming extensions in the FITS file following the primary HDU. This keyword is only advisory, so its presence with a value T does not require that the FITS file contains extensions, nor does the absence of this keyword necessarily imply that the file does not contain extensions [9].

Using the center wavelength and bandwidth, we can obtain the wavelength range of each SDSS band, and then the S/N in each band is the median value of each pixel S/N in this band. However, it is possible that not all pixel is valid to calculate S/N. Thus, the S/N is artificially set as -9999 when the number of valid pixels used to estimate S/N is less than half of the total pixel number in each band.

The first column is flux, the second column stores the “inverse variance” (one over sigma-squared, and sigma is the uncertainty), which can be used to estimate S/N of each pixel (S/N = flux * (inverse variance) ^ 0.5), and the third column is wavelength in unit of angstrom. The “andmask” in the fourth column is a decimal integer determined by a six-bit binary number shown in table 4, which represents six situations respectively as listed in table 5, and the associated bit of “andmask” will be set to 1 if the case always appears in each exposure. Like “andmask”, the “ormask” in fifth column is also a decimal integer determined by a six-bit binary number. The difference is that each bit of “ormask” will be set to 1 if the related case happens in any exposure.

For a spectrum, if you want to check which case in table 5 has happened in the spectrum reduction process, you can firstly convert the decimal “Andmask” and “Ormask” to a six-bit binary number. Then, a case must has happened in each exposure if associated bit is 1 in binary “Andmask”, and a case must has happened at least one time if associated bit is 1 in binary “Ormask”.
For a spectrum with atmospheric parameters, the sixth column in Table 3 is the normalized flux at each wavelength. For a spectrum without atmospheric parameters, the normalized spectrum was not calculated, and the normalized flux at each wavelength in the sixth column was artificially set as “-9999”. The continua of spectra with atmospheric parameters were calculated before the normalization, and the continuum calculation refers to the continuum of the best matching template, which has been prepared for each template before, and can be used directly after template matching[13]. It should be noted that the wavelength range of the normalized spectrum is from 3800 Å to 8900 Å, which is shorter than that of the original spectrum ([3690 Å, 9100 Å]), and the bluest and reddest end were removed to reduce the effect of the noise. At wavelengths outside the normalized spectrum, the fluxes were artificially set to 1.
In this section, we introduce 11 LAMOST catalogs published in this data release, which can be available from the website of http://www.lamost.org/dr9/v1.0/catalogue. They are the LAMOST LRS General Catalog, the LAMOST LRS Stellar Parameter Catalog of A, F, G and K Stars, the LAMOST LRS Line-Index Catalog of A Type Stars, the LAMOST LRS Catalog of gM, dM, and sdM stars, the LAMOST LRS Multiple Epoch Catalog, the LAMOST LRS Observed Plate Information Catalog, the LAMOST LRS Input Catalog, LAMOST LRS Catalog of Cataclysmic Variable Stars, LAMOST LRS Catalog of White Dwarf Stars, the LAMOST LRS Catalog of Stellar Population Synthesis of Galaxies, and the LAMOST LRS Catalog of Emission Line Features of QSOs, respectively.
LAMOST targets were cross-matched with Gaia DR2 catalog, and their Gaia source identifiers, i.e., the “source_id” fields, and Gaia G magnitudes, i.e., the “phot_g_mean_magnitude” fields, are included in nine LAMOST LRS catalogs except the LAMOST LRS Observed Plate Information Catalog and the LAMOST LRS Input Catalog.
Here, it should note that, the LAMOST LRS Stellar Parameter Catalog of A, F, G and K Stars, the LAMOST LRS Line-Index Catalog of A Type Stars, the LAMOST LRS Catalog of gM, dM, and sdM stars, LAMOST LRS Catalog of Cataclysmic Variable Stars, LAMOST LRS Catalog of White Dwarf Stars, the LAMOST LRS Catalog of Stellar Population Synthesis of Galaxies, and the LAMOST LRS QSO Catalo are all subsets of the LAMOST LRS General Catalog. The following table 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 16 separately show all fields of the 11 catalogs, and provide the comment for each field. Most fields in these tables are explained in detail in sub-section 2.2.1, and we only introduce the fields, which are not introduced above.
In this sub-section, we present the LAMOST LRS General Catalog, which includes objects obtained from LAMOST pilot survey and the regular survey of the first nine years. For galaxy, QSO and M type stars, all of them are in the catalog. But for other type targets, we published spectra with r band S/Ns larger than 2, or g band S/Ns larger than 5, or i band S/Ns larger than 5.
We totally published 11,226,252 spectra in this table, including 10,907,516 stellar spectra, 242,569 galaxy spectra, and 76,167 quasar spectra. In addition, there are 7,529,860 spectra with g band S/Ns larger than 10, 10,027,153 spectra with i band S/Ns larger than 10, and 7,447,234 spectra with g band S/Ns larger than 10 and i band S/Ns larger than 10.
All parameters of this catalog are listed in table 6, and most majorities of them are explained in section 2.2.1 in detail. In order to prevent saturation, we artificially add offsets to the equatorial coordinates from input catalog for a fraction of luminous stars during observation. Thus, we add four new fields in catalogs except the LAMOST LRS Observed Plate Information Catalog and the LAMOST LRS Multiple Epoch Catalog, and they are “ra_obs”, “dec_obs”, “offsets” and “offsets_v” respectively. The fields “ra_obs” and “dec_obs” are fiber pointing right ascension and declination during observation, and the fields “ra” and “dec” are the equatorial coordinates from the input catalog. The field “offsets” represents whether there is a fiber offset during observation, and the field “offsets_v” gives the offset value of equatorial coordinator in the input catalog if the “offsets” field is true. Note that, “offsets” and “offsets_v” in catalogs are the same as “offset” and “offset_v” in FITS header. Since “offset” is a commonly used database keyword, it should be avoided to use in catalogs. The fields “z” and “z_err” are redshift and uncertainty respectively, which were given by the LAMOST 1D pipeline, and they are set to -9999 if the redshift is unable to be estimated. Besides, the “fibermask” field is the same as the “FIBERMAS” field in the “Primary FITS Header”, which has already detailedly described in subsection 2.2.1.4.
This table was cross-matched with the Pan-STARRS catalog using a radius of 3 arcsec on the Pan-STARRS website, and the object identifier and magnitudes of Pan-STARRS are given in this table. “ps_ID” is the object identifier of Pan-STARRS (the “objid” field), “ps_g”, “ps_r”, “ps_i”, “ps_z”, and “ps_y” are the magnitudes of Pan-STARRS in g, r, i, z, and y bands, and “n_ps” provides the number of Pan-STARRS”s objects within the 3 arcsec of each LAMOST object.
Here, we provide two formats of the LAMOST LRS General Catalog to download, which include a FITS table and a CSV table, and they can be available from http://www.lamost.org/dr9/v1.0/catalogue.

3.2 LAMOST LRS Stellar Parameter Catalog of A, F, G and K Stars
In this sub-section, we introduce the LAMOST LRS Stellar Parameter Catalog of A, F, G and K Stars. We totally published 7,060,436 spectra in this catalog, including 307,851 A type star spectra, 2,088,948 F type star spectra, 3,430,379 G type star spectra and 1,233,258 K type star spectra.
These spectra are selected with the criterion of S/N in g band larger than 6 in dark nights, and S/N in g band larger than 15 in bright nights. All fields of this catalog are listed in table 7, the fields of “teff”, “logg”, “feh” and “rv” are the effective temperatures, surface gravities, metallicities and radial velocity, which were determined by LASP. The uncertainty of atmospheric parameters and radial velocity is affected mainly by two factors, i.e., the S/N and the best-matched chi-square. Using a sample of stars subtracting variable stars and having multiple observations, the precisions of atmospheric parameters and radial velocity for each observation and the relationship between the precisions and S/N were determined. Besides, the function relationship of the best-matched chi-square and S/N can also be obtained with another sample of stars. The “teff_err”, “logg_err”, “feh_err” and “rv_err” are uncertainties of atmospheric parameters and radial velocity, respectively, and they can be estimated by the above best-matched chi-square, S/N, and the two relationships. In addition, the fields of “alpha_m” and “alpha_m_err” are alpha element abundance and the uncertainty given by the LASP, respectively. Different from above fields, the “alpha_m” field was estimated by the method of template matching based on the MARCS synthetic spectra, and its uncertainty of “alpha_m_err” was estimated by the same method used by “teff_lasp_err”, “logg_lasp_err”, and “feh_lasp_err”.
It should be noted that A type stars in this catalog is a subset of the LAMOST LRS Line-Index Catalog of A Type Stars, and they all have high S/N spectra. Here, we provide two formats of the LAMOST LRS Stellar Parameter Catalog of A, F, G and K Stars to download, which include a FITS table and a CSV table, and they can be available from http://www.lamost.org/dr9/v1.0/catalogue.

In this sub-section, we introduce the LAMOST LRS Line-Index Catalog of A Type Stars, and all 654,940 A type star spectra are published in this catalog, which are also in the LAMOST LRS General Catalog. Table 8 shows all fields of this catalog, and fields before “dec” have already introduced in previous section. The fields of “kp6”, “kp12”, “kp18”, “halpha12”, “halpha24”, “halpha48”, “halpha70”, “hbeta12”, “hbeta24”, “hbeta48”, “hbeta60”, “hgamma12”, “hgamma24”, “hgamma48”, “hgamma54”, “hdelta12”, “hdelta24”, “hdelta48”, “hdelta64”, “paschen13”, “paschen142” and “paschen242” are line indices of Ca II K, Halpha, Hbeta, Hgamma, Hdelta, and Paschen lines respectively, and the numbers in their names are the used band widths in the unit of angstrom. It should be noted that the three Paschen line indices use the local continua at 8467.5 Å, 8598.0 Å, and 8751.0 Å respectively. Besides, the fields of “halpha_d02”, “hbeta_d02”, “hgama_d02”, and “hdelta_d02” are the widths at 20% below the local continua of four BALMER lines. If these line indices and line widths were not available, they were set to -9999.

In this sub-section, we introduce the LAMOST LRS Catalog of gM, dM, and sdM stars, which includes 51,523 M giant spectra, 776,915 M dwarf spectra, and 4,317 M sub-dwarf spectra.
The fields of “teff”, “logg”, and “m_h” in table 9 are effective temperatures, surface gravities, and metallicities for M type stars, which were determined by the minimum chi-squre estimation mentioned in Du B. et al. (2021) [14], and their errors of “teff_err”, “logg_err”, and “m_h_err” were estimated with the method that LASP used. Here, the BT-Settl CIFIST2011 spectra[15-16] were used as templates to estimate “teff”, “logg”, and “m_h”. The “ewha” and “ewha_err” fields are equivalent width (EW) of Halpha line and its error. The fields of “tio1”, “tio1_err”, “tio2”, “tio2_err”, “tio3”, “tio3_err”, “tio4”, “tio4_err”, “tio5”, “tio5_err”, “cah1”, “cah1_err”, “cah2”, “cah2_err”, “cah3”, “cah3_err”, “caoh”, “caoh_err”, and “na” are TiO, CaH, CaOH, and Na spectral line indices and their errors. Besides, a metallicity sensitive parameter of “zeta”, its error of “zeta_err”, and a magnetic activity flag of “type” were also provided in this catalog. The value of “type” includes 1 and 0, where 1 represents a M star has magnetic activity, and 0 means it does not have magnetic activity. Previous EW spectral line indices, “zeta”, “type”, and their errors were all given by the HAMMER software, and they were set to -9999 if they were unable to be determined. In addition, “z” and “z_err” are redshift and uncertainty separately, and they were estimated by the LAMOST 1D pipeline.
Here, we provide two formats of the LAMOST LRS Catalog of gM, dM, and sdM stars to download, which include a FITS table and a CSV table, and they can be available from http://www.lamost.org/dr9/v1.0/catalogue.

In this sub-section, we introduce the LAMOST LRS Multiple Epoch Catalog, and each column of this catalog represents a source with multiple observations. There are in total of 2,069,564 targets in this catalog, and there are 17 parameters provided for each source. The equator coordinates used to calculate the source identifier were mainly from the Gaia or Pan-STARRS survey. For a few sources without equator coordinates of Gaia or Pan-STARRS, the source identifiers were estimated with the equator coordinates in LAMOST input catalog.
In this catalog, “uid” is the unique LAMOST source identifier, which was calculated by the Hierarchical Triangular Mesh (HTM) algorithm [17] (the “HMpTy” package), and “ura” and “udec” are the equator coordinates to calculate “uid”. “gp_id” provides the corresponding source identifier in the Pan-STARRS, Gaia, or LAMOST, which depends on “ura” and “udec” of which survey were used to calculate “uid”.
The “obs_number”, “obsid_list”, “midmjm_list”, “z_list”, “teff_list”, “logg_list”, “feh_list”, and “rv_list” fields provide the observation number, unique spectrum ID list, modified Julian minute list at the middle time of multiple exposures in one-night, red shift list , effective temperature list, surface gravity list, metallicity list and radial velocity list, respectively. Because these targets were observed at multiple nights, their “obs_number” are all greater than 1, and their unique spectrum ID, modified Julian minute of the middle time of multiple exposures, red shift, effective temperature, surface gravity, metallicity, and radial velocity of each observation are separated by the sign of “-” in the last seven fields of this catalog.
It should be noted that, you can use each obsid in the “obsid_list” field to cross-match with other LAMOST LRS catalogs. Here, we provide two formats of the LAMOST LRS Multiple Epoch Catalog to download, which include a FITS table and a CSV table, and they can be available from http://www.lamost.org/dr9/v1.0/catalogue.

In this sub-section, we introduce the LAMOST LRS Observed Plate Information Catalog, which includes nine parameters for all 5,533 published plates, and the “obsdate” and “planid” fields in this table have already been introduced. The fields of “ra” and “dec” are right ascension and declination of center star of each plate, and the field “mag” is the magnitude of center star. The field of “seeing” is the dome seeing of the first exposure, and the field of “exptime” is the total exposure time of n time exposures. Besides, the “lmjm” field is the local modified Julian minute at the start time of each plate, and the “pid” is the unique ID of each plate.

In this sub-section, we introduce the LAMOST LRS Catalog of White Dwarf Stars, and this catalog includes 16,382 spectra of white dwarf stars. There are 43 fields in this catalog, 38 of them are also included in the LAMOST LRS General Catalog of sub-section 3.1. The five fields not in sub-section 3.1 are “wd_subclass”, “teff”, “teff_err”, “logg” and “logg_err”, which are the spectral sub-types, effective temperatures, and surface gravities of white dwarf stars. The “wd_subclass” field was determined by the machine learning method of ”LASSO+SVM” introduced in Kong, X. et al. (2018) [18], and the other four parameters were determined by the least-square fitting algorithm.
Here, we thank J.K. Zhao and D. Koester for providing the parameter templates of DA and DB stars. These models were made by D. Koester (2010) [19] ranging from 5 000 K to 80 000 K and 7.0 to 9.5 for the effective temperature and surface gravity respectively. We provide two formats of the LAMOST LRS Catalog of White Dwarf Stars to download, which include a FITS table and a CSV table, and can be available from http://www.lamost.org/dr9/v1.0/catalogue.

In this sub-section, we introduce the LAMOST LRS Catalog of Stellar Population Synthesis of Galaxies. This table includes 60 parameters for 23,770 galaxy spectra, and the first 38 parameters are also in the LAMOST LRS General Catalog. The other 22 parameters are the total integrated fluxes (“*_flux”, “*” is the name of the emission line) and EWs (“*_ew”, “*” is the name of the emission line) of eight emission lines, age (“age_lw” and “age_mw”), metallicity (“metal_lw” and “metal_mw”), stellar velocity dispersion, and its error, respectively.
At first, the fluxes of galaxy spectra are calibrated using the SDSS photometry data [20]. Then, the total integrated fluxes and EWs of eight emission lines are calculated by referring to the DAP software algorithm [21], the light and mass weighted ages (“age_lw” and “age_mw”) and metallicities (“metal_lw” and “metal_mw”) are obtained by the FIREFLY code [22], and the stellar velocity dispersion and its error are estimated by the PPXF package [23].
Here, we provide two formats of the LAMOST LRS Catalog of Stellar Population Synthesis of Galaxies to download, which include a FITS table and a CSV table, and they can be available from http://www.lamost.org/dr9/v1.0/catalogue.

In this sub-section, we introduce the LAMOST LRS Catalog of Emission Line Features of QSOs. This table includes 185 parameters for 18,323 QSO spectra, and the first 38 parameters (before “sn_ratio_conti”) are also in the LAMOST LRS General Catalog. The other 147 parameters are the measurement results of six groups of emission lines in QSO spectra.
The fluxes of QSO spectra are calibrated using the SDSS photometry data [20], and emission lines are divided into six groups to be measured: (1) The broad component and narrow component of Lyman alpha (Lya); (2) The broad component and narrow component of C IV; (3) The broad component and narrow component of C III; (4) A broad component and two narrow components of Mg II; (5) The broad component and narrow component of Hbeta, [O III] 4959, and [O III] 5007; (6) Two broad components and two narrow components of Halpha, [N II] 6549, [N II] 6583, [S II] 6718, and [S II] 6732.
The PyQSOfit code [24] is used to measure the above six groups of emission lines in LAMOST QSO spectra. From “sn_ratio_conti” to “l5100”, they are parameters obtained by fitting the continua of QSO spectra, and the fields from “line_name_1” to “ndof_6” are the name of each group of emission lines, the fitting status indicating whether the fitting is successful, the minimum chi-square value, the reduced chi-square value, and the degree of freedom, respectively. From “lya_br_1_peak_flux” to “sii6732_1_sigma”, the peak wavelength, peak flux, and line dispersion of each group emission lines are given, and full width at half maximum (FWHM), line dispersion, EW, peak wavelength, and integrated flux of Lya (including the broad and narrow components), C IV (including the broad and narrow components), C III (including the broad and narrow components), Mg II (including the broad and narrow components), Hbeta (including the broad and narrow components, but excluding [O III] 4959 and [O III] 5007), and Halpha (including the broad and narrow components, but excluding [N II] 6549, [N II] 6583, [S II] 6718 and [S II]6732) are given after the “lya_fwhm” field.
Here, we provide two formats of the LAMOST LRS Catalog of Emission Line Features of QSOs to download, which include a FITS table and a CSV table, and they can be available from http://www.lamost.org/dr9/v1.0/catalogue.
