VEP associated to HE+ energy ranges

[bkhelifi]

Dear all,

Before starting the discussion into the Semantics WG, here is the VEP UCD for new energy ranges: https://voparis-gitlab.obspm.fr/vespa/ivoa-standards/semantics/vep-ucd/-/blob/master/VEP-UCD-25-em_gamma_energy_list.txt

Any objection?

These don't fully agree with the definitions in the draft HEIG ObsCore note. In particular, em.gamma.uhe should be defined as >100 TeV rather than 100 TeV- 10PeV since this would become the highest energy electromagnetic spectrum bin defined in UCDs (currently it's em.gamma.hard which is defined as >500keV). You need the highest bin to be open-ended in order than we can cover the entire electromagnetic spectrum.
