- Description:
- The InfraRed Camera (IRC) onboard AKARI has a comprehensive wavelength coverage with 9 photometric bands at 2-24 micron. Based on the NEP-Wide survey of AKARI (which covered a 5.4 sq.deg circular area centered on the NEP), we constructed a catalog for the infrared sources found in the survey area. Here we present the catalog containing about 114,800 sources detected at the nine IRC filter bands. This is a band-merged catalogue including all of the photometry results from the supplementary optical data as well as the IRC bands. To validate a source at a given IRC band, we searched counterparts in the other bands. The band-merging was done based on this cross-matching of the sources among the filter bands. If there is no detection in a certain band, we assigned the 99.000. The NIR sources having no counterpart in any other bands are finally excluded to avoid the false objects. See the reference for the details of the NEP-Wide survey and data reduction.

- Description:
- We present spectra of 1796 sources selected in the AKARI North Ecliptic Pole Wide Survey field, obtained with MMT/Hectospec and WIYN/Hydra, for which we measure 1645 redshifts. We complemented the generic flux-limited spectroscopic surveys at 11 {mu}m and 15 {mu}m, with additional sources selected based on the MIR and optical colors. In MMT/Hectospec observations, the redshift identification rates are ~80% for objects with R < 21.5 mag. On the other hand, in WIYN/Hydra observations, the redshift identification rates are ~80% at R magnitudes brighter than 19 mag. The observed spectra were classified through the visual inspection or from the line diagnostics. We identified 1128 star-forming or absorption-line-dominated galaxies, 198 Type-1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs), 8 Type-2 AGNs, 121 Galactic stars, and 190 spectra in unknown category due to low signal-to-noise ratio. The spectra were flux-calibrated but to an accuracy of 0.1-0.18dex for most of the targets and worse for the remainder. We derive star formation rates (SFRs) from the mid-infrared fluxes or from the optical emission lines, showing that our sample spans an SFR range of 0.1 to a few hundred M_{sun}_/yr. We find that the extinction inferred from the difference between the IR and optical SFR increases as the IR luminosity increases but with a large scatter.

- Description:
- We report on an imaging survey with the Spitzer Space Telescope of 62 brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) with optical line emission. These galaxies are located in the cores of X-ray luminous clusters selected from the ROSAT All-Sky Survey. We find that about half of these sources have a sign of excess infrared emission; 22 objects out of 62 are detected at 70um, 18 have 8/5.8um flux ratios above 1.0 and 28 have 24/8um flux ratios above 1.0. Altogether 35 of 62 objects in our survey exhibit at least one of these signs of infrared excess. Four galaxies with infrared excesses have a 4.5/3.6um flux ratio indicating the presence of hot dust, and/or an unresolved nucleus at 8um. Three of these have high measured [OIII](5007{AA})/H{beta} flux ratios suggesting that these four, Abell 1068, Abell 2146, Zwicky 2089, and R0821+07, host dusty active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Nine objects (including the four hosting dusty AGNs) have infrared luminosities greater than 10^11^L_{sun}_ and so can be classified as luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs). Excluding the four systems hosting dusty AGNs, the excess mid-infrared emission in the remaining brightest cluster galaxies is likely related to star formation.

- Description:
- The INT Wide Field Survey (WFS) is using the Wide Field Camera (~0.3 square degrees) on the 2.5m Isaac Newton Telescope (INT). The project was initiated in August 1998 and is expected to have a duration of up to five years. Multicolour data will be obtained over 200+ square degrees to a typical depth of ~25 mag (u' through z'). The data is publically accessible via the Cambridge Astronomical Survey Unit to UK and NL communities from day one, with access to the rest of the world after one year. This observation log lists all observations older than the one year proprietary period.

- ISOCAM 14.3{mu}m Deep Survey in Lockman Hole
- Short Name:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a new analysis of the ISOCAM 14.3{mu}m deep survey in a 20x20 square arcmin area in the Lockman Hole. This survey is intermediate between the ultra-deep surveys and the shallow surveys in the ELAIS fields. The data have been analyzed with the method presented by Lari et al. (2001, Cat. <J/MNRAS/325/1173>). We have produced a catalogue of 283 sources detected above the 5-{sigma} threshold, with fluxes in the interval 0.1-8mJy. The catalogue is 90% complete at 1mJy. The positional accuracy, estimated from the cross-correlation of infrared and optical sources, is around 1.5arcsec. The search for the optical counterparts of the sources in the survey is performed on a medium-deep r' band optical image (5{sigma} depth of r'=25), making use of the radio detections when available. The photometry has been checked through simulations and by comparing the data with those presented in a shallower and more extended ISOCAM survey in the Lockman Hole, that we have presented in a companion paper. Only 15% of the 14.3{mu}m sources do not have an optical counterpart down to r'=25mag. We use the 6.7/14.3{mu}m colour as a star/galaxy separator, together with a visual inspection of the optical image and an analysis of the observed Spectral Energy Distribution of the ISOCAM sources. The stars in the sample turn out to be only 6% of the sample. We discuss the 14.3{mu}m counts of extragalactic sources, combining our catalogue with that obtained from the shallower ISOCAM survey. The data in the two surveys are consistent, and our results fully support the claims in previous works for the existence of an evolving population of infrared galaxies, confirming the evident departure from non-evolutionary model predictions.

- Description:
- We present the results of ISO observations with the CAM LW3 filter, centered at {lambda}_eff_=14.3{mu}m, of 94 out of the 98 galaxies comprising the complete 60{mu}m IRAS deep survey (IDS) sample in the north ecliptic polar region. In addition, we observed a source detected by IRAS at 25{mu}m and found to have particularly interesting properties. Altogether, 106 sources were detected with a signal to noise ratio >=3 and 69 with S/N>=5 in the 3.2'x3.2' fields centered on the nominal positions of IRAS sources. Sixty-five >=3{sigma} detections (49 of which at >=5{sigma}) are likely identifications of IRAS sources. Ten additional IRAS sources have possible >=3{sigma} ISOCAM counterparts. In 6 further cases, signals at the 2-3{sigma} level were detected close to the IRAS position. Indications that IRAS sources might actually be multiple (source confusion) were found in 4 IDS fields. On the whole, we confirm the reality of 69 to 90% of IDS sources. Appropriate statistical corrections for the bias affecting faint flux estimates were applied to ISOCAM data. Ten serendipitous sources were detected at >=5{sigma}, with S(14.3{mu}m)>=3.5mJy. The corresponding areal density is consistent with that found in previous surveys. Finding charts for all observed fields are given.

- ISO ELAIS 20cm VLA survey regions
- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We have used the Very Large Array (VLA) in C configuration to carry out a sensitive 20-cm radio survey of regions of the sky that have been surveyed in the far-infrared (FIR) over the wavelength range 5-200{mu}m with ISO (Infrared Space Observatory) as part of the European Large-Area ISO Survey (ELAIS). As usual in surveys based on a relatively small number of overlapping VLA pointings, the flux limit varies over the area surveyed: from a 5{sigma} limit of 0.135mJy over an area of 0.12deg^2^ to 1.15mJy or better over the whole region covered of 4.22deg^2^. In this paper we present the complete radio catalogue of 867 sources, 428 of which form a complete sample in the flux range 0.2-1.0mJy. These regions of the sky have previously been surveyed to shallower flux limits at 20cm with the VLA as part of the VLA D configuration NVSS (full width at half-maximum, FWHM=45arcsec) and VLA B configuration FIRST (FWHM=5arcsec) surveys. Our whole survey has a nominal 5{sigma} flux limit a factor of 2 below that of the NVSS; 3.4deg^2^ of the survey reaches the nominal flux limit of the FIRST survey and 1.5deg^2^ reaches 0.25mJy, a factor of 4 below the nominal FIRST survey limit. In addition, our survey is at a resolution intermediate between the two surveys and thus is well suited for a comparison of the reliability and resolution-dependent surface brightness effects that affect interferometric radio surveys. We have carried out a detailed comparison of our own survey and these two independent surveys in order to assess the reliability and completeness of each. Considering the whole sample, we found that to the 5{sigma} nominal limits of 2.3 and 1.0mJy, respectively, the NVSS and FIRST surveys have a completeness of 96^+2^_-3_ and 89^+2^_-3_ per cent and a reliability of 99^+1^_-2_ and 94^+2^_-2_ per cent.

- Description:
- A deep survey of the European Large-Area ISO Survey (ELAIS) field in the southern celestial hemisphere (hereinafter S1) has been carried out with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) at 1.4GHz. The S1 region, covering about 4deg^2^, has also been surveyed in the mid- and far-infrared (5-200mm) with the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). The radio survey provides uniform coverage of the entire S1 region, with a sensitivity (5{sigma}) of 0.4mJy over the whole area and 0.2mJy in the centre. To this sensitivity, virtually all the radio counterparts of the far-infrared extragalactic ISO sources should be detected. This paper presents a radio sample -- complete at the 5{sigma} level -- consisting of 581 sources detected at 1.4GHz. Of these radio sources, 349 have peak flux density in the range 0.2-1mJy, forming a new homogeneous sample of sub-mJy radio sources. Due to its size, depth and multiwaveband coverage, the sample will allow us to study in greater detail the sub-mJy radio source population.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We develop a new data reduction technique for ISOCAM LW data and apply it to the European Large Area ISO Survey (ELAIS) LW3 (15-{mu}m) observations in the southern hemisphere (S1). This method, known as LARI technique and based on the assumption of the existence of two different time-scales in ISOCAM transients (accounting for either fast or slow detector response), is particularly designed for the detection of faint sources. In the ELAIS S1 field we obtain a catalogue of 462 15-{mu}m sources with signal-to-noise ratios >=5 and flux densities in the range 0.45-150mJy (filling the whole flux range between the Deep ISOCAM Surveys and the IRAS Faint Source Survey). The completeness at different flux levels and the photometric accuracy of this catalogue are tested with simulations. Here we present a detailed description of the method and discuss the results obtained by its application to the S1 LW3 data.

- Description:
- The FIRBACK (Far Infrared BACKground) survey is one of the deepest imaging surveys carried out at 170{mu}m with ISOPHOT onboard ISO, and is aimed at the study of the structure of the Cosmic Far Infrared Background. This paper provides the analysis of resolved sources. After a validated process of data reduction and calibration, we perform intensive simulations to optimize the source extraction, measure the confusion noise ({sigma}_c_=45mJy), and give the photometric and astrometric accuracies. 196 galaxies with flux S>3{sigma}_c_ are detected in the area of 3.89 square degrees. Counts of sources with flux S>4{sigma}_c_ present a steep slope of 3.3+/-0.6 on a differential ``logN-logS'' plot between 180 and 500mJy. As a consequence, the confusion level is high and will impact dramatically on future IR deep surveys. This strong evolution, compared with a slope of 2.5 from Euclidian geometry, is in line with models implying a strongly evolving Luminous Infrared Galaxy population. The resolved sources account for less than 10% of the Cosmic Infrared Background at 170{mu}m, which is expected to be resolved into sources in the 1 to 10mJy range.
