NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive
Description:
The Spitzer-South Pole Telescope Deep Field (SSDF) is a wide-area survey using IRAC to cover 94 square degrees of extragalactic sky, making it the largest IRAC survey completed to date outside the Milky Way midplane. The SSDF is centered at 23:30,-55:00, in a region that combines observations spanning a broad wavelength range from numerous facilities. These include millimeter imaging from the South Pole Telescope, far-infrared observations from Herschel/SPIRE, X-ray observations from the XMM XXL survey, near-infrared observations from the VISTA Hemisphere Survey, and radio-wavelength imaging from the Australia Telescope Compact Array, in a panchromatic project designed to address major outstanding questions surrounding galaxy clusters and the baryon budget.

Description:
This database table contains the Spitzer Space Telescope (SST) log of executed and scheduled observations, and is updated on a weekly basis. Spitzer is the fourth and final element in NASA's family of Great Observatories and represents an important scientific and technical bridge to NASA's Astronomical Search for Origins program. The SST Observatory carries an 85-cm cryogenic telescope and 3 cryogenically cooled science instruments capable of performing imaging and spectroscopy in the 3.6 to 160 micron (µm) range. Spitzer was launched on a Delta 7920H from Cape Canaveral into an Earth-trailing heliocentric orbit in August 2003. While the Spitzer cryogenic lifetime requirements are 2.5 years, current estimates indicate that achieving a goal of a 5-year cryogenic mission is possible. For more overview information, refer to the Spitzer Science Center (SSC) Overview at <a href="http://ssc.spitzer.caltech.edu/spitzermission/">http://ssc.spitzer.caltech.edu/spitzermission/</a>. The purpose of this HEASARC table is to help users, particularly those in the high-energy astronomy community, learn about which targets Spitzer has observed or will shortly observe. This table does not at this time have links from table entries to Spitzer data products. Once a particular Spitzer dataset of interest is identified, the SSC Archives/Analysis web page at <a href="http://ssc.spitzer.caltech.edu/archanaly/">http://ssc.spitzer.caltech.edu/archanaly/</a> should be used to access the dataset. The information in this table has been derived from the following files obtained from the SSC website: <p> The schedule of Spitzer science observations as executed: <pre> <a href="http://irsa.ipac.caltech.edu/data/SPITZER/docs/files/spitzer/spitzer_obslog.txt">http://irsa.ipac.caltech.edu/data/SPITZER/docs/files/spitzer/spitzer_obslog.txt</a> </pre> The list of all approved Spitzer science programs: <pre> <a href="http://irsa.ipac.caltech.edu/data/SPITZER/docs/files/spitzer/spitzer_programs.txt">http://irsa.ipac.caltech.edu/data/SPITZER/docs/files/spitzer/spitzer_programs.txt</a> </pre> Notice that this table contains primarily observations (identified by their AOR key value) from the first URL above. A given observation should appear only once in this HEASARC table. The HEASARC checks these URLs for modifications periodically and updates the table whenever changes are detected.

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
A complete flux-limited sample of 50 galaxies is presented having f{nu}(24um)>10mJy, chosen from a survey with MIPS on Spitzer of 8.2deg^2^ in the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey (NDWFS) region in Bootes. Spectra obtained with the low-resolution modules of IRS on Spitzer are described for 36 galaxies in this sample; 25 show strong PAH emission features characteristic of starbursts, and 11 show silicate absorption or emission, emission lines, or featureless spectra characteristic of AGNs. Infrared or optical spectral classifications are available for 48 of the entire sample of 50; 33 galaxies are classified as starbursts and 15 as AGNs.

Title:
Spitzer study of AGB stars. III.
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the third and final part of a census of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in Local Group dwarf irregular (dIrr) galaxies. Papers I (Jackson et al. 2007ApJ...656..818J) and II (Jackson et al. 2007ApJ...667..891J) presented the results for WLM and IC 1613. Included here are Phoenix, LGS 3, DDO 210, Leo A, Pegasus dIrr, and Sextans A. Spitzer photometry at 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, and 8um are presented, along with a more thorough treatment of background galaxy contamination than was presented in Papers I and II. We find that at least a small population of completely optically obscured AGB stars exists in each galaxy, regardless of the galaxy's metallicity, but that higher metallicity galaxies tend to harbor more stars with slight infrared excesses.

Title:
Spitzer survey of NGC 2451
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a Spitzer IRAC and MIPS survey of NGC 2451A and B, two open clusters in the 50-80Myr age range. We complement these data with extensive ground-based photometry and spectroscopy to identify the cluster members in the Spitzer survey field. We find only two members with 8um excesses. The incidence of excesses at 24um is much higher, i.e., 11 of 31 solar-like stars and 1 of 7 early-type (A) stars. This work nearly completes the debris disk surveys with Spitzer of clusters in the 30-130Myr range. This range is of interest because it is when large planetesimal collisions may have still been relatively common (as indicated by the one that led to the formation of the Moon during this period of the evolution of the solar system). We review the full set of surveys and find that there are only three possible cases out of about 250 roughly solar-mass stars where very large excesses suggest that such collisions have occurred recently.
14476. Spitzer survey of Orion A and B. I. YSO catalog

Title:
Spitzer survey of Orion A and B. I. YSO catalog
Short Name:
J/AJ/144/192
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a survey of the Orion A and B molecular clouds undertaken with the IRAC and MIPS instruments on board Spitzer. In total, five distinct fields were mapped, covering 9deg^2^ in five mid-IR bands spanning 3-24{mu}m. The survey includes the Orion Nebula Cluster, the Lynds 1641, 1630, and 1622 dark clouds, and the NGC 2023, 2024, 2068, and 2071 nebulae. These data are merged with the Two Micron All Sky Survey point source catalog to generate a catalog of eight-band photometry. We identify 3479 dusty young stellar objects (YSOs) in the Orion molecular clouds by searching for point sources with mid-IR colors indicative of reprocessed light from dusty disks or infalling envelopes. The YSOs are subsequently classified on the basis of their mid-IR colors and their spatial distributions are presented. We classify 2991 of the YSOs as pre-main-sequence stars with disks and 488 as likely protostars. Most of the sources were observed with IRAC in two to three epochs over six months; we search for variability between the epochs by looking for correlated variability in the 3.6 and 4.5{mu}m bands. We find that 50% of the dusty YSOs show variability. The variations are typically small (~0.2mag) with the protostars showing a higher incidence of variability and larger variations. The observed correlations between the 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, and 8{mu}m variability suggests that we are observing variations in the heating of the inner disk due to changes in the accretion luminosity or rotating accretion hot spots.

Title:
Spitzer survey of Serpens YSO population
Short Name:
J/ApJ/663/1149
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We discuss the combined IRAC/MIPS c2d Spitzer Legacy observations of the Serpens star-forming region. We describe criteria for isolating bona fide YSOs from the extensive background of extragalactic objects. We then discuss the properties of the resulting high-confidence set of 235 YSOs. An additional 51 lower confidence YSOs outside this area are identified from the MIPS data and 2MASS photometry. We present color-color diagrams to compare our observed source properties with those of theoretical models for star/disk/envelope systems and our own modeling of the objects that are well represented by a stellar photosphere plus circumstellar disk.

Title:
Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S^4^G) is an Exploration Science Legacy Program approved for the Spitzer post-cryogenic mission. It is a volume-, magnitude-, and size-limited (d<40Mpc, |b|>30{deg}, m_Bcorr_<15.5, and D_25_>1') survey of 2331 galaxies using the Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) at 3.6 and 4.5um. Each galaxy is observed for 240s and mapped to >=1.5D_25_. The final mosaicked images have a typical 1sigma rms noise level of 0.0072 and 0.0093MJy/sr at 3.6 and 4.5um, respectively. Our azimuthally averaged surface brightness profile typically traces isophotes at {mu}_3.6um_(AB)(1sigma)~27mag/arcsec^2^, equivalent to a stellar mass surface density of ~1M_{sun}_/pc^2^. thus provides an unprecedented data set for the study of the distribution of mass and stellar structures in the local universe. This large, unbiased, and extremely deep sample of all Hubble types from dwarfs to spirals to ellipticals will allow for detailed structural studies, not only as a function of stellar mass, but also as a function of the local environment. This article introduces the survey and describes the sample selection, the significance of the 3.6 and 4.5um bands for this study, and the data collection and survey strategies.
