- 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.

- 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.

- 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.

- ISO FIRBACK Source Catalog at 170um

- 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.

- ISO HDF observations from PRETI method

- Description:
- We have developed a new ISOCAM data reduction technique based on wavelet analysis, especially designed for the detection of faint sources in mid-infrared surveys. This method, the Pattern REcognition Technique for Isocam data (PRETI) has been used to reduce the observations of the Hubble Deep Field (HDF) and flanking fields with ISOCAM at 6.75 (LW2) and 15{mu}m (LW3) (Rowan-Robinson et al. 1997MNRAS.289..490R). Simulations of ISOCAM data allow us to test the photometric accuracy and completeness of the reduction. According to these simulations, the PRETI source list is 95% complete in the 15{mu}m band at 200{mu}Jy and in the 6.75{mu}m band at 65{mu}Jy, using detection thresholds which minimize the number of false detections. We detect 49 objects in the ISO-HDF at high confidence secure level, 42 in the LW3 filter, 3 in the LW2 filter, and 4 in both filters. An additional, less secure, list of 100 sources is presented, of which 89 are detected at 15{mu}m only, 7 at 6.75{mu}m only and 4 in both filters. All ISO-HDF objects detected in the HDF itself have optical or infrared counterparts, except for one from the additional list. All except one of the radio sources detected in the field by Fomalont et al. (1997ApJ...475L...5F) are detected with ISOCAM. Using a precise correction for the field of view distortion of ISOCAM allows us to separate blended sources. This, together with the fact that PRETI allows to correct data on the tail of cosmic rays glitches, lead us to produce deeper source lists than previous authors. Our list of bright sources agree with those of Desert et al. (1999A&A...342..363D) in both filters, and with those of Goldschmidt et al. (1997MNRAS.289..465G) in the LW3 filter, with systematic difference in photometry. ISO is an ESA project with instruments funded by ESA Member States (especially the PI countries: France, Germany, The Netherlands and the United Kingdom) and with participation of ISAS and NASA.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- Serendipity slew survey measurements were acquired with the ISOPHOT C200 detector installed on the ISO mission. The C200 detector is a 2x2 pixel array of stressed Ge:Ga with a pixel size of 89.4arcsec, and was used in conjunction with the C160 broad-band filter (reference wavelength 170{mu}m, width 89{mu}m). During the lifetime of the ISO mission, about 550 hours of measurements have been gathered with more than 12000 slews. From the slew data with low (100{mu}m<=15MJy/sr) cirrus background, 115 well-observed sources with a high signal to noise ratio in all detector pixels having a galaxy association were extracted. The 170{mu}m fluxes measured from the Serendipity slews have been put on an absolute flux level by using calibration sources observed additionally with the photometric mapping mode of ISOPHOT. For all but a few galaxies, the 170{mu}m fluxes are determined for the first time, which represents a significant increase in he number of galaxies with measured Far-Infrared (FIR) fluxes beyond the IRAS 100{mu}m limit.

- Description:
- The ISOPHOT Serendipity Sky Survey strip-scanning measurements covering ~15% of the far-infrared (FIR) sky at 170{mu}m were searched for compact sources associated with optically identified galaxies. Compact Serendipity Survey sources with a high signal-to-noise ratio in at least two ISOPHOT C200 detector pixels were selected that have a positional association with a galaxy identification in the NED and/or Simbad databases and a galaxy counterpart visible on the Digitized Sky Survey plates. A catalog with 170{mu}m fluxes for more than 1900 galaxies has been established, 200 of which were measured several times.

- Description:
- The 170 micron far-infrared slew data of the ISOPHOT Serendipity Survey (ISOSS) has been assembled to a sky atlas with ~15% sky coverage. The redundant information of the brightnesss at slew crossings has been used to globally rescale and homogenize the slew brightnesses, leading to significantly increased photometric accuracy and reproducibility as well as the homogeneity of the maps. The corrected slew data were remapped with a constant grid size of 22.4arcsec onto 124 maps in galactic coordinates.

- Description:
- We present the results of a 6.4 square degrees imaging survey of the Pleiades cluster in the I and Z-bands. The survey extends up to 3{deg} from the cluster center and is 90% complete down to I~=22. It covers a mass range from 0.03M_{sun}_ to 0.48M_{sun}_ and yields 40 brown dwarf candidates (BDCs) of which 29 are new. The spatial distribution of BDCs is fitted by a King profile in order to estimate the cluster substellar core radius. The Pleiades mass function is then derived across the stellar-substellar boundary and we find that, between 0.03M_{sun}_ and 0.48M_{sun}_, it is well represented by a single power-law, dN/dM{prop.to}M^-{alpha}^, with an index alpha=0.60+/-0.11. Over a larger mass domain, however, from 0.03M_{sun}_ to 10M_{sun}_, the mass function is better fitted by a log-normal function. We estimate that brown dwarfs represent about 25% of the cluster population which nevertheless makes up less than 1.5% of the cluster mass. The early dynamical evolution of the cluster appears to have had little effect on its present mass distribution at an age of 120Myr. Comparison between the Pleiades mass function and the Galactic field mass function suggests that apparent differences may be mostly due to unresolved binary systems.
