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/IRC Point Source Catalogue, Version 1.0 provides positions and fluxes for 870,973 sources observed with the InfraRed Camera (IRC): 844,649 sources in the S9W filter, and 194,551 sources in the L18W filter; the table below provides a summary of the IRC filter characteristics: <pre> Filter: S9W L18W Center(µm): 9 18 Width(µm): 4.10 9.97 Range(µm): 6.7-11.6 13.9-25.6 Pixel("): 9.4x9.4 10.4x9.4 Limit(mJy): 50 120 [at 5{sigma}] </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 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/297">CDS catalog II/297</a> file irc.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
