Description


Akari is Japan's first dedicated infrared astronomical satellite (and the second infrared space mission following IRTS) launched on February 22, 2006. Akari's primary mission is to carry out the all-sky survey with the best sensitivity, spatial resolution and the widest wavelengths. The AKARI/FIS Bright Source Catalogue Version 1.0 provides the positions and fluxes of 427,071 point sources in the four far-infrared wavelengths centred at 65, 90, 140, and 160 um. The sensitivity in the 90 um band is about 0.55 Jy. The AKARI/IRC Point Source Catalogue Version 1.0 provides positions and fluxes of 870,973 sources (844,649 sources in 9um band and 194,551 sources in 18um band) in the Mid-Infrared wavelengths.
