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.
Spitzer Matching Survey of the Ultra-VISTA Deep Stripes

Description:
The Spitzer Matching Survey of the Ultra-VISTA Deep Stripes (SMUVS) consists of deep 3.6 and 4.5 imaging of three Ultra-VISTA near-infrared survey stripes in the COSMOS field. SMUVS reaches point-source sensitivities of about 25.0 AB mag at both 3.6 and 4.5 microns with a significance of 4 sigma, accounting for both survey sensitivity and source confusion. To this limit, the SMUVS catalogs contain a total of ~350,000 sources, each of which is detected significantly in at least one IRAC band. Because of its uniform and high sensitivity, relatively large area coverage, and the wide array of ancillary data available in COSMOS, the SMUVS survey will be useful for a large number of cosmological investigations.
Spitzer MIPS 24 and 70 micron Imaging of the South Ecliptic Pole
Short Name:
SEP

Publisher:
NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive
Description:
The Spitzer/MIPS 24 and 70 μm imaging of an 11.5 square degree region near the South Ecliptic Pole (SEP) has been carried out in order to complement sub-millimeter wavelength observations (250-500 μm) of the same region of sky taken with the Balloon-borne Large Aperture Sub-millimeter Telescope (BLAST), with the goal of better characterizing the nature of sub-millimeter selected galaxies and their role in galaxy evolution. This field has also been extensively mapped at other wavelengths, and will be imaged from 100-500 μm as part of the Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey (HerMES).
This data set includes images of the galaxy cluster Abell 1763 at visible and infrared wavelengths: r', J, H, and Ks obtained using the Palomar 200in telescope, as well as the IRAC and MIPS images from Spitzer. The cluster is covered out to approximately 3 virial radii with deep 24 mum imaging (a 5sigma depth of 0.2 mJy). This same field of ~40' × 40' is covered in all four IRAC bands as well as the longer wavelength MIPS bands (70 and 160 mum). The r' imaging covers ~0.8 deg2 down to 25.5 mag, and overlaps with most of the MIPS field of view. The J, H, and Ks images cover the cluster core and roughly half of the filament galaxies, which extend toward the neighboring cluster, Abell 1770.
Spitzer Public Legacy Survey of the UKIDSS Ultra Deep Survey
Short Name:
SpUDS

Publisher:
NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive
Description:
SpUDS is a survey of the ~1 square degree UKIDSS Ultra Deep Survey (UDS). The survey consists of deep IRAC and 24 micron MIPS observations. The UDS is the largest deep near-infrared (JHK) survey in existence, and the first capable of sampling representative cosmological volumes (100x100 Mpc) out to the highest redshifts (z>6).
The Spitzer Reionization Lensing Cluster Survey (SRELICS, PI: Bradac) is the Spitzer counterpart to the RELICS HST Treasury program (PI: Coe) to survey 41 massive galaxy clusters.
SMC-Last (Program ID number 13096) built on the legacy of SAGE-SMC by adding two more epochs at 3.6 and 4.5 microns covering the entire 30 square degree footprint of the SAGE-SMC survey in late 2017 and early 2018. This program, when combined with the previous surveys, provides a minimum of four epochs at 3.6 and 4.5 microns creating a temporal baseline of over 9 yr covering the entire SMC and its surroundings. Up to nine epochs are available in the core of the SMC spanning a period of over 12 yr.

Publisher:
NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive
Description:
The Spitzer/MIPS 24 and 70 μm imaging of an 11.5 square degree region near the South Ecliptic Pole (SEP) has been carried out in order to complement sub-millimeter wavelength observations (250-500 μm) of the same region of sky taken with the Balloon-borne Large Aperture Sub-millimeter Telescope (BLAST), with the goal of better characterizing the nature of sub-millimeter selected galaxies and their role in galaxy evolution. This field has also been extensively mapped at other wavelengths, and will be imaged from 100-500 μm as part of the Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey (HerMES).
Candidate extended sources were identified by comparing PRF-fitted fluxes to aperture fluxes at 7.4" and 16" radius (24 and 70 microns, respectively). Sources for which the fluxes disagree (3 sigma) and the corrected aperture flux is higher are considered possible extended sources. These candidates are matched to known objects in NED. Sources requiring an aperture larger than 15" (24 microns) or 36" (70 microns) are measured using aperture photometry on the point source subtracted residual image.

Source detection and photometry were performed using the APEX software within the MOPEX package. Source candidates with S/N > 6 and reduced chi-squared values less than or equal to three (93% of the sources) are considered reliable detections. The remaining source candidates were then inspected (see Scott et al. 2010 for details) and false positives were removed from the catalog.
