Description

The AKARI Infrared Astronomical Satellite observed the whole sky in the far-infrared (50-180 microns or um) and the mid-infrared (9 and 18 um) between May 2006 and August 2007 (Murakami et al. 2007PASJ...59S.369M) in six infrared bands between 9 um and 180 um. The AKARI/FIS All-Sky Survey Bright Source Catalogue, Version 1.0 provides positions and fluxes for 427,071 point sources observed with the Far Infrared Surveyor (FIS) instrument in the 4 far-infrared wavelengths centered at 65, 90, 140 and 160 um; the table below provides a summary of the FIS filter characteristics: <pre> Filter: N60 WIDE-S WIDE-L N160 Center(µm): 65 90 140 160 Range(µm): 50-80 60-110 110-180 140-180 Pixel("): 26.8 26.8 44.2 44.2 </pre> The users of the catalog are requested to carefully read the release note at <a href="http://www.ir.isas.jaxa.jp/AKARI/Observation/">http://www.ir.isas.jaxa.jp/AKARI/Observation/</a> before critical discussions of the data. Any questions and comments are appreciated at the ISAS Helpdesk (iris_help@ir.isas.jaxa.jp). Please acknowledge the usage of the AKARI data (details at <a href="http://www.ir.isas.jaxa.jp/AKARI/Publications/guideline.html">http://www.ir.isas.jaxa.jp/AKARI/Publications/guideline.html</a>). This table was created by the HEASARC in May 2010 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/II/298">CDS catalog II/298</a> file fis.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
