ID:: ivo://irsa.ipac/HERON
Title:: Haloes and Environments of Nearby Galaxies
Short Name:: HERON
Date:: 01 May 2023 19:00:00
Publisher:: NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive
Description:: HERON used a dedicated 0.7-m telescope to image the haloes of 124 galaxies in the Local Volume to surface brightnesses of 28-30 mag/arcsec^2. The sample is primarily from the Two Micron All Sky Survey Large Galaxy Atlas and extended to include nearby dwarf galaxies and more distant giant ellipticals, and spans fully the galaxy color-magnitude diagram including the blue cloud and red sequence

ID:: ivo://irsa.ipac/Herschel/Images/KINGFISH
Title:: Key Insights on Nearby Galaxies: A Far-Infrared Survey with Herschel
Short Name:: KINGFISH
Date:: 16 Mar 2017 01:00:00
Publisher:: NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive
Description:: KINGFISH is an imaging and spectroscopic survey of 61 nearby (d<30 Mpc) galaxies, chosen to cover a wide range of galaxy properties and local interstellar medium (ISM) environments found in the nearby universe. Its broad goals are to characterize the ISM of present-day galaxies, the heating and cooling of their gaseous and dust components, and to better understand the physical processes linking star formation and the ISM.

ID:: ivo://irsa.ipac/2MASS/Catalog/LGA
Title:: 2MASS Large Galaxy Atlas Photometry
Short Name:: 2MASS LGA Phot
Date:: 01 Oct 2018 20:27:16
Publisher:: NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive
Description:: The 2MASS Large Galaxy Atlas consists of galaxies ranging in size from 2 to 30 arcmin, with a typical resolution of ~3 arcsec (w/ 1 arcsec pixels) in the 2MASS IR bands (J, H, Ks). The completed atlas provides the aggregate flux for each galaxy and a detailed view of the infrared morphology.

Title:: MIPS Local Galaxies
Short Name:: MIPS_LG
Date:: 27 Oct 2022 19:00:00
Publisher:: NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive
Description:: The MIPS Local Galaxies program compiles the Spitzer MIPS observations of all available galaxies in several Herschel-SPIRE Local Galaxies Guaranteed Time Programs, including the Very Nearby Galaxies Survey (VNGS), Dwarf Galaxy Survey (DGS), Herschel Reference Survey (HRS), and Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey (HeViCS).

Title:: MIPS Local Galaxies Catalog
Short Name:: MIPS_LG
Date:: 01 Oct 2018 20:27:18
Publisher:: NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive
Description:: The MIPS Local Galaxies program compiles the Spitzer MIPS observations of all available galaxies in several Herschel-SPIRE Local Galaxies Guaranteed Time Programs, including the Very Nearby Galaxies Survey (VNGS), Dwarf Galaxy Survey (DGS), Herschel Reference Survey (HRS), and Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey (HeViCS).

ID:: ivo://irsa.ipac/Spitzer/Images/LVL
Title:: Spitzer Local Volume Legacy Survey
Short Name:: LVL
Date:: 27 Oct 2022 19:00:00
Publisher:: NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive
Description:: LVL consists of a sample of 258 galaxies, which have been mapped with both IRAC (4 bands) and MIPS (3 bands). In addition, ancillary data products consisting of images in the narrow-band H-alpha line emission and broad-band R (from the ground) and the UV continuum (2 bands) from GALEX are also available for many of the galaxies.

ID:: ivo://irsa.ipac/Spitzer/Images/S4G
Title:: Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies
Short Name:: S4G
Date:: 27 Sep 2024 01:00:00
Publisher:: NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive
Description:: The Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G) is a volume-, magnitude-, and size-limited survey of over 2300 nearby galaxies at 3.6 and 4.5μm. This is an extremely deep survey reaching an unprecedented 1σ surface brightness limit of μ3.6μm(AB) = 27 mag arcsec-2. This translates to a stellar surface density of << 1 M⊙ pc-2 ! S4G can thus probe the stellar structure in galaxies in a regime where the gas dominates the stars (typical HI surface density ~ a few M⊙ pc-2).

Title:: Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies Catalog
Short Name:: S4G Catalog
Date:: 01 Oct 2018 20:27:18
Publisher:: NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive
Description:: The Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G) is a volume-, magnitude-, and size-limited survey of over 2300 nearby galaxies at 3.6 and 4.5 microns. This is an extremely deep survey reaching an unprecedented 1 sigma surface brightness limit of μ3.6(AB) = 27 mag arcsec-2. This translates to a stellar surface density of << 1 Msun pc-2. The S4G Catalog provides photometry and model parameters derived from the IRAC images, as well as a link to the summary and data access page for each galaxy and a variety of quantities taken from previously published work.

ID:: ivo://irsa.ipac/Herschel/Images/VNGS
Title:: Very Nearby Galaxy Survey
Short Name:: VNGS
Date:: 27 Oct 2022 19:00:00
Publisher:: NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive
Description:: The Very Nearby Galaxy Survey (VNGS) is a Herschel Key Program (KPGT_cwilso01_1) to measure the emission spectrum from dust as well as important cooling lines from the gaseous interstellar medium in a sample of 13 very nearby galaxies (M51, M81, NGC2403, NGC891, M83, M82, Arp220, NGC4038/39, NGC1068, NGC4151, CenA, NGC4125, and NGC205). These galaxies have been chosen to probe as wide a region in galaxy parameter space as possible while maximizing the achievable spatial resolution and are already well-studied from X-ray and optical through to radio wavelengths. The far-infrared and submillimeter wavelengths probed by Herschel are absolutely crucial for understanding the physical processes and properties of the interstellar medium, the interplay between star formation and the interstellar medium in galaxies, and how they may depend on the wider galaxian environment.
