- Title:
- IRAS Point Source Catalog, Version 2.0
- Short Name:
- IRASPSC
- Date:

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The IRAS Point Source Catalog, Version 2.0, is a catalog of some 250,000 well-confirmed infrared point sources observed by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS), i.e., sources with angular extents less than approximately 0.5, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 arcminutes in the in-scan direction at 12, 25, 60, and 100 microns (µm), respectively. Positions, flux densities, uncertainties, associations with known astronomical objects and various cautionary flags are given for each objectin the catalog. Away from confused regions of the sky, the survey is complete to about 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, and 1.0 Janskies (Jy) at 12, 25, 60, and 100 microns, respectively. Typical position uncertainties are about 2 to 6 arcseconds in the in-scan direction and about 8 to 16 arcseconds in the cross-scan direction. This online version of the IRASPSC was created by the HEASARC in April 2002 based on ADC/<a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/II/125">CDS Catalog II/125</a> (the main file).

- Title:
- IRAS Point Source Reject Catalog
- Short Name:
- II/274
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- This is a catalog of 372,774 potential infrared point sources that failed one or more of the confirmation and confusion criteria and were not, thus, included in the IRAS Point Source Catalog (Cat. II/125). These REJECTED sources include spurious objects (e.g., processing failures, space debris, asteroids and comets) and celestial sources that, due to incompleteness at faint levels or to variability, failed to achieve the minimum criterion of two hours-confirmed sightings. In regions of high source density the catalog includes sources rejected by the more severe criteria for reliability applied there.

- Title:
- IRAS Serendipitous Survey Catalog
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- This is a catalog of 12, 25, 60 and 100 micron photometric observations of 43,866 point-like sources detected fortuitiously in the Infrared Astronomical Satellite Pointed Observation program. The main objective was to take advantage of the longer-than-nominal integration time per source to extend the detection threshold relative to that of the Point Source Catalog (PSC); about three-fourths of the Serendipitous Survey Catalog (SSC) sources do not appear in the PSC. From 1813 Pointed Observation fields, the effective sky coverage is 1108 square degrees. Relative to the PSC, the SSC is characterized by: enhanced sensitivity (by a factor of about 4) in all four wavelength bands; excellent reliability in uncrowded fields; uneven sky coverage and completeness; reduced positional accuracy; improved photometric accuracy; much greater depth in crowded fields at the expense of reliability and accuracy. The SSC data processing, the catalog format, and an analysis are given in the Explanatory Supplement to the IRAS Serendipitous Survey Catalog.

- Title:
- IRAS Small Scale Structure Catalog, Ver 1.00
- Short Name:
- VII/73
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Sources resolved by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite in any band (12, 25, 60, or 100 microns) but smaller than eight arcmin in angular extent are to be found in the Small Scale Structure Catalog, also known as the catalog of "small extended sources." The catalog gives the infrared characteristics of 16740 objects including, e.g., galaxies, planetary nebulae and compact H II regions. The catalog lists for each entry and in each band separately: a position accurate to about one arcminute (rms); a flux density accurate to 50% (rms) overall, and better at high signal to noise ratios; a rough indicative size if a point source is present at the same location; and a variety of warning and processing flags. If a detailed shape description, or a more accurate position, flux, or size are needed, these must be determined from the raw detector output. Incompleteness is a complex function of wavelength band, brightness, and location, so the absence of an entry in the SSS Catalog does not necessarily imply the lack of detectable extended emission. Many entries, mostly at 60 and 100 microns, refer only to emission features that are details in larger structures known as Galactic cirrus. Complete documentation, including a description of the catalog format, is contained in the printed version.
