AllWISE Source Catalog

The AllWISE program builds upon the work of the successful Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer mission (WISE; Wright et al. 2010) by combining data from the WISE cryogenic and NEOWISE (Mainzer et al. 2011 ApJ, 731, 53) post-cryogenic survey phases to form the most comprehensive view of the full mid-infrared sky currently available. The AllWISE Source Catalog contains accurate positions, apparent motion measurements, four-band (3.4, 4.6, 12, 22 microns) fluxes and flux variability statistics for over 747 million objects detected on the coadded Atlas Images. The added depth and sensitivity, source motion measurements and improved flux variability information in the AllWISE products mean that they supersede the earlier All-Sky Data Release Catalog and Atlas for most uses.

2MASS All-Sky Point Source Catalog

The 2MASS project made uniformly-calibrated observations of the entire sky in the J (1.24 µm), H (1.66 µm) and Ks (2.16 µm) near-infrared bands with a pixel size of 2.0 arcsec. Sources brighter than about 1 mJy in each band were detected with a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) greater than 10.

2MASS provides:

An unprecedented view of the Milky Way, nearly free of the obscuring effects of interstellar dust, that is revealing the true distribution of luminous mass and thus the largest structures over the extent of the Galaxy.

The first all-sky photometric census of galaxies brighter than Ks=13.5 mag, including galaxies in the 60 degree-wide "Zone of Avoidance," where dust within the Milky Way renders optical galaxy surveys incomplete. The final Catalog of >1,500,000 galaxies provides a rich statistical database, including photometric measurements in three wavelengths and a few structural parameters for large samples of galaxies in differing environments, measured at wavelengths which are sensitive to the stellar populations dominating the luminous mass.

The statistical basis to search for rare, but astrophysically important, objects, which are either cool, and thus extremely red (e.g., extremely low-luminosity stars and brown dwarfs), or heavily obscured at optical wavelengths (e.g., dust-obscured AGNs and globular clusters located in the Galactic plane).

Spitzer Enhanced Imaging Products (SEIP) Source List

The Spitzer Science Center and IRSA have released a set of Enhanced Imaging Products (SEIP) from the Spitzer Heritage Archive. These include Super Mosaics (combining data from multiple programs where appropriate) and a Source List of photometry for compact sources. The primary requirement on the Source List is very high reliability -- with areal coverage, completeness, and limiting depth being secondary considerations. The SEIP include data from the four channels of IRAC (3.6, 4.5, 5.8, 8 microns) and the 24 micron channel of MIPS. The full set of products for the Spitzer cryogenic mission includes around 42 million sources.

Cryogenic Release 3 includes Spitzer data taken during commissioning and cryogenic operations (Dec 2003 to May 2009), including calibration data.

To ensure high reliability, strict cuts are placed on extracted sources, and some legitimate sources may appear to be missing. These sources are removed by cuts in size, compactness, blending, shape, and SNR, along with multi-band detection requirements. In most fields, the completeness of the source list is well matched to expectations for a SNR=10 cut off. However, in extremely difficult regions, the list may be highly incomplete, especially in areas of high surface brightness and/or high source surface density (e.g. galactic star forming regions, the areas around bright sources, and areas in extended nearby galaxies).

IRAS Point Source Catalog v2.1 (PSC)

The Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) was a joint project of the US, UK and the Netherlands. The IRAS mission performed an unbiased, sensitive all sky survey at 12, 25, 60 and 100 microns. The Point Source Catalog includes 245,889 well-confirmed point sources, i.e., sources with angular extents less than approximately 0.5', 0.5', 1.0', and 2.0' in the in-scan direction at 12, 25, 60, and 100 micron, respectively. Positions, flux densities, uncertainties, associations with known astronomical objects and various cautionary flags are given for each object. Away from confused regions of the sky, the survey is complete to about 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, and 1.0 Jy at 12, 25, 60, and 100 micron. Typical position uncertainties are about 2" to 6" in-scan and about 8" to 16" cross-scan.

The Midcourse Space Experiment Data Atlas

The Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX), a Ballistic Missile Defense Organization satellite, was launched in April 1996. The first ten months of the mission were devoted to mid-infrared observations with a solid hydrogen-cooled telescope. This instrument had five line-scanned focal plane arrays that spanned the spectral region from 4.2 to 26 microns.

MSX6C Infrared Point Source Catalog

Version 2.3 of the Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX) Point Source Catalog (PSC), which supercedes the version (1.2) that was released in 1999, contains over 100,000 more sources than the previous version. The photometry is based on co-added image plates, as opposed to single-scan data, which results in improved sensitivity and hence reliability in the fluxes. Comparison with Tycho-2 positions indicates that the astrometric accuracy of the new catalog is more than 1'' better than that in Version 1.2. In addition to the Galactic plane, Areas Missed by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS), and the Large Magellanic Cloud, which were included in the previous catalog, Version 2.3 includes data from the Small Magellanic Cloud, eight nearby galaxies, and several molecular clouds and star forming regions.

IRAS Faint Source Catalog

The Faint Source Survey (FSS) is the definitive IRAS data set for faint point sources. The FSS was produced by point-source filtering the individual detector data streams and then coadding those data streams using a trimmed-average algorithm. The resulting images, or plates, give the best estimate from the IRAS survey data of the point source flux density at every surveyed point of the sky. The Faint Source Catalog (FSC) is a compilation of the sources extracted from the FSS plates that have met reasonable reliability requirements. Averaged over the whole catalog, the FSC is at least 98.5% reliable at 12 and 25 microns, and ~94% at 60 microns. For comparison, the IRAS Point Source Catalog (PSC) is > 99.997% reliable, but the sensitivity of the FSC exceeds that of the PSC by about a factor of 2.5. The FSC contains data for 173,044 point sources in unconfused regions with flux densities typically greater than 0.2 Jy at 12, 25, and 60 microns and greater than 1.0 Jy at 100 microns.

Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope

The Balloon-borne Large-Aperture Sub-millimeter Telescope (BLAST) is a 2-m telescope that conducted the first wide-area (> many square degrees) sub-mm surveys at wavelengths 250--500 um. Built and flown by an international collaboration headed by the University of Pennsylvania (P.I. Mark Devlin), the telescope uses a prototype of the SPIRE camera for the Herschel satellite. Despite parts of this band being available to ground-based telescopes from high-altitude sites such as Mauna Kea (e.g. JCMT) and Chile (e.g. future ALMA site), BLAST surveys are currently un-matched in sensitivity and area given the comparatively negligible atmospheric water vapour at 38 km altitude.

This table is a subset of gaia_source comprising those stars in the Hipparcos and Tycho-2 Catalogues for which a full 5-parameter astrometric solution has been possible in Gaia Data Release 1. This is possible because the early Hipparcos epoch positions break some degeneracies due to the limited Gaia time coverage. This table contains a substantial fraction of the around 2.5 million stars in the Hipparcos and Tycho-2 catalogue. Many stars have been excluded due to several reasons, such as saturation, cross-match errors or bad astrometric solution.

The Fourth U.S. Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog

UCAC4 is a compiled, all-sky star catalog covering mainly the 8 to 16 magnitude range in a single bandpass between V and R. Positional errors are about 15 to 20 mas for stars in the 10 to 14 mag range. Proper motions have been derived for most of the about 113 million stars utilizing about 140 other star catalogs with significant epoch difference to the UCAC CCD observations. These data are supplemented by 2MASS photometric data for about 110 million stars and 5-band (B,V,g,r,i) photometry from the APASS (AAVSO Photometric All-Sky Survey) for over 50 million stars. UCAC4 also contains error estimates and various flags. All bright stars not observed with the astrograph have been added to UCAC4 from a set of Hipparcos and Tycho-2 stars. Thus UCAC4 should be complete from the brightest stars to about R=16, with the source of data indicated in flags.

United States Naval Observatory B1.0 Catalog

This all-sky catalog, described in Monet et al. (2003), consists of positions, proper motions, magnitudes, and other measured quantities for 1,045,175,762 objects. The data were derived from digitizing scans of almost 7,500 photographic plates taken from various sky surveys during the interval from 1949 to 2002. The originating plate material includes five complete coverages of the northern sky and four of the southern sky.

To be included in the catalog, an object must have been detected on two different surveys because isolated, single-survey detections are unreliable. For the earlier USNO-A catalog (which was essentially a two-color, one-epoch catalog), this meant that the object must have had detectable fluxes on both the red and blue plates, and this led to the exclusion of many faint objects with non-neutral colors. Also, the larger epoch difference in the southern survey coverage meant that objects with larger proper motions tended to be excluded. USNO-B1.0 attempts to fix both of these problems. An object detected in the same band at two epochs will be included in USNO-B1.0, as will objects that have significant proper motions, although it is still the case that objects with large motions and extreme colors may be omitted. The selection algorithm requires that spatially coincident detections must be made on any two of the surveys for an object to be classified as real and be included in the catalog.

The catalog is expected to be complete down to V=21. Estimated positional accuracies are 0.2 arcsec, photographic magnitude accuracies are 0.3 mag, and the accuracy for distinguishing stars from non-stellar objects is 85%.

First USNO Robotic Astrometric Telescope Catalog

URAT is a follow-up project to the successful UCAC project using the same astrograph but with a much larger focal plane array and a bandpass shifted further to the red. Longer integration times and more sensitive, backside CCDs allowed for a substantial increase in limiting magnitude, resulting in about 4-fold increase in the average number of stars per square degree as compared to UCAC. Additional observations with an objective grating largely extend the dynamic range to include observations of stars as bright as about 3rd magnitude. Multiple sky overlaps per year result in a significant improvement in positional precision as compared to UCAC.

USNO

The Fifth U.S. Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog

The US Naval Observatory (USNO) has a long history of providing accurate astrometric data for millions of stars from their own observations plus other data. The USNO CCD Astrograph Catalog (UCAC) project utiized the "redlens" 20 cm aperture astrograph in an all-sky observing program between 1997 and 2004 (CTIO in the south, NOFS in the north) with a limiting magnitude of about R = 16.5. The previous release, UCAC4, became available in 2012. The 1st Gaia data release provides proper motions for only about 2 million stars (TGAS subset of the Tycho-2 stars) in the mainly 6 to 11.5 magnitude range. Gaia DR2 which will contain proper motions of about a billion stars is scheduled for release in April 2018. In the meantime the astronomical community would benefit from proper motions of millions of stars fainter than the Tycho-2 limit, if a substantial improvement in precision and accuraccy could be made beyond what was available in the pre-Gaia era. Re-reduction of UCAC + combine with Gaia DR1 provides proper motions for over 107 million stars on the 1 to 5 mas/yr level, strongly depending on magnitude. UCAC observations (mean epoch 2001) provide positions with 10 to 70 mas precision, and about 14 years of epoch difference to Gaia DR1.

Auriga-California Molecular Cloud Catalog

The Auriga-California molecular cloud is a large region of relatively modest star formation that is part of the Gould Belt. The "Auriga-California Molecular Cloud" (ACMC) Herschel program observed a 14.5 square degree area in five far-infrared bands.

The ACMC catalog provides photometry for the 60 point-like and very compact sources in each band: PACS 70 and 160 microns, SPIRE 250, 350, and 500 microns.

PEP PACS 70 micron GOODS-S Catalog

The PACS Evolutionary Probe (PEP, Lutz et al. 2011) is a Herschel guaranteed time deep extragalactic survey (KPGT_dlutz_1) targeting six among the most popular "blank fields", ten lensing clusters of galaxies, and two z ~1 clusters at wavelengths of 100, and 160 microns. PEP includes SPIRE observations of the two z ~1 clusters at wavelengths of 250, 350, and 500 microns. SPIRE coverage of all other fields is available from the HerMES survey (Oliver et al. 2010). In addition, deep SPIRE GOODS-N data are provided by the GOODS-Herschel program (Elbaz et al. 2011).

PEP used the Starfinder IDL code (Diolaiti et al. 2000a,b) to blindly extract the PACS catalogs, by means of PSF-fitting. PEP adopted the "direct" noise maps and extracted PSFs directly from the observed maps (see documentation). The released catalogs include all sources above a S/N threshold of 3 sigma, derived directly from the measured fluxes and flux uncertainties. Users should keep in mind that the error estimate does not take into account confusion noise. PEP recommends to use any flux below 0.6 mJy in the green band and below 2.0 mJy in the red band with care.

The GOODS-S 70 micron catalog omits the Field and Flag_PGH_* columns, and coverage has units of s/pix.

In addition, deep SPIRE GOODS-N data are provided by the GOODS-Herschel program (Elbaz et al. 2011).

In addition to the blind catalogs extracted with Starfinder, PEP also provides a catalog obtained using 24 micron position priors and PSF-fitting. The catalogs of priors used for each blank field are listed in Table 16 of the documentation, and are mostly based on an extraction driven by IRAC source positions. Priors extraction of PACS fluxes is obtained following the method described in Magnelli et al. (2009). Users should keep in mind that the error estimate does not take into account confusion noise. PEP recommends to use any flux below 0.6 mJy in the green band and below 2.0 mJy in the red band with care.

The Herschel Astrophysical Terahertz Large Area Survey (H-ATLAS) is a survey of 600 deg^2 in five photometric bands - 100, 160, 250, 350 and 500 microns - with the Photoconductor Array Camera and Spectrometer (PACS) and Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE) cameras. H-ATLAS DR1 includes the survey of three fields on the celestial equator, covering a total area of 161.6 deg^2 and previously observed in the Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA) spectroscopic survey. The data release main catalogue (HATLAS_DR1_CATALOGUE.FITS) contains only the 'best' candidate ID to each SPIRE source (where available). Most users will find in this catalogue everything they will need for their science purposes. A second catalogue is also available (HATLAS_DR1_CATALOGUE_ALLIDS.FITS), which contains all possible counterparts within the search radius of each SPIRE source, and provides the full LR statistics so that these may be independently analysed as the user wishes. To select only sources which have reliable optical IDs, a cut of Reliability#0.8 is recommended, although other cuts on Reliability or LR may be suitable for different purposes as discussed in Bourne et al. (2016).

HOPS SED Data Catalog

The Herschel Orion Protostar Survey (HOPS, KPOT_tmegeath_2) is a sample of 410 young stellar objects (YSOs) in the Orion molecular clouds, selected from Spitzer data. Most objects have near-infrared photometry from 2MASS, mid- and far-infrared data from Spitzer and Herschel, and submillimeter photometry from APEX; thus, the SEDs cover 1.2 - 870 microns and are used to classify the sample into protostellar classes. Of the 410 YSOs, 330 have Spitzer and Herschel data and are mostly protostars; the remaining objects include likely extragalactic contaminants and faint YSOs. Using mid-IR spectral indices and bolometric temperatures, the sample of 330 YSOs is classified into 92 Class 0 protostars, 125 Class I protostars, 102 flat-spectrum sources, and 11 Class II re-main-sequence stars. HOPS also implements a simple protostellar model (including a disk in an infalling envelope with outflow cavities) to generate a grid of 30,400 model SEDs and uses it to determine the best-fit model parameters for each protostar.

This table contains the 2MASS, Spitzer, Herschel, and APEX source fluxes, as well as the rebinned IRS fluxes, of the 410 HOPS sources. Note that not every source has data at all of these wavelengths.

Using mid-IR spectral indices and bolometric temperatures, the sample of 330 YSOs is classified into 92 Class 0 protostars, 125 Class I protostars, 102 flat-spectrum sources, and 11 Class II re-main-sequence stars. HOPS also implements a simple protostellar model (including a disk in an infalling envelope with outflow cavities) to generate a grid of 30,400 model SEDs and uses it to determine the best-fit model parameters for each protostar.

This table contains the SED class, bolometric luminosity and temperature, mid-IR spectral index, and best-fit model parameters for the 330 YSOs with Spitzer and Herschel data.

Herschel SPIRE Point Source Catalog: 500 microns

The Herschel-SPIRE instrument mapped about 9% of the sky in Submillimeter broad-band filters centered at 250, 350, and 500 microns (1199, 857, 600 GHz) with spatial resolutions of 17.9", 24.2", 35.4" respectively. In total, we used the 6878 standard configuration scan maps that are available, including calibration observations. The SPIRE Point Source Catalog contains the result of a systematic and homogeneous source extraction on those maps using 4 different photometry extraction methods. Only regions affected by strong Galactic emission, mostly in the Galactic Plane, were excluded, as they tested the limits of the available source extraction methods. Aimed primarily at point sources, that allow for the best photometric accuracy, the catalog contains also significant fractions of slightly extended sources up to a limit. With most SPIRE maps being confusion limited, uncertainties in flux densities were established as a function of structure noise and flux density, based on the results of artificial source insertion experiments into real data along a range of celestial backgrounds. Many sources have been rejected that do not pass the imposed SNR threshold, especially at flux densities approaching the extragalactic confusion limit. A range of additional flags provide information on the reliability of the flux information, as well as the spatial extent and orientation of a source. Users are encouraged to check the flux density estimates of all 4 methods and follow the guidelines given in the Explanatory Supplement regarding their interpretation for point- and extended sources. For tracing back catalog objects to the originally contributing detections in SPIRE observations, a cross identification table is available that provides the relevant observation identifiers used by the Herschel Science Archive. For further details on catalog construction, detailed content, and validation, please see the Explanatory Supplement.

HerMES 250 micron StarFinder Catalog

The Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey (HerMES) is a legacy programme (KPGT_soliver1) designed to map a set of nested fields totalling 380 sq. deg. Fields range in size from 0.01 to 20 sq. deg., using SPIRE at 250, 350 and 500 microns. These bands cover the peak of the redshifted thermal spectral energy distribution from interstellar dust and thus capture the reprocessed optical and ultraviolet radiation from star formation that has been absorbed by dust, and are critical for forming a complete multiwavelength understanding of galaxy formation and evolution.

HERITAGE LMC Band-Matched Catalog

Observations from the HERschel Inventory of the Agents of Galaxy Evolution (HERITAGE) have been used to identify dusty populations of sources in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC).

The study used the HERITAGE catalogs of point sources from both the Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer (PACS; 100 and 160 microns) and Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE; 250, 350, and 500 microns) cameras. These catalogs are matched to each other to create a Herschel band-merged catalog and then further matched to archival Spitzer IRAC and MIPS catalogs from the Spitzer Surveying the Agents of Galaxy Evolution (SAGE) and SAGE-SMC surveys to create single mid- to far-infrared (far-IR) point source catalogs that span the wavelength range from 3.6 to 500 microns. There are 35,322 unique sources in the LMC and 7503 in the SMC.

HERITAGE SMC Band-Matched Catalog

Observations from the HERschel Inventory of the Agents of Galaxy Evolution (HERITAGE) have been used to identify dusty populations of sources in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC).

The study used the HERITAGE catalogs of point sources from both the Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer (PACS; 100 and 160 microns) and Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE; 250, 350, and 500 microns) cameras. These catalogs are matched to each other to create a Herschel band-merged catalog and then further matched to archival Spitzer IRAC and MIPS catalogs from the Spitzer Surveying the Agents of Galaxy Evolution (SAGE) and SAGE-SMC surveys to create single mid- to far-infrared (far-IR) point source catalogs that span the wavelength range from 3.6 to 500 microns. There are 35,322 unique sources in the LMC and 7503 in the SMC.

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.

Herschel Orion Protostar Survey

The Herschel Orion Protostar Survey (HOPS, KPOT_tmegeath_2) is a sample of 410 young stellar objects (YSOs) in the Orion molecular clouds, selected from Spitzer data. Most objects have near-infrared photometry from 2MASS, mid- and far-infrared data from Spitzer and Herschel, and submillimeter photometry from APEX; thus, the SEDs cover 1.2 - 870 microns and are used to classify the sample into protostellar classes. Of the 410 YSOs, 330 have Spitzer and Herschel data and are mostly protostars; the remaining objects include likely extragalactic contaminants and faint YSOs. Using mid-IR spectral indices and bolometric temperatures, the sample of 330 YSOs is classified into 92 Class 0 protostars, 125 Class I protostars, 102 flat-spectrum sources, and 11 Class II pre-main-sequence stars. HOPS also implements a simple protostellar model (including a disk in an infalling envelope with outflow cavities) to generate a grid of 30,400 model SEDs and uses it to determine the best-fit model parameters for each protostar.

HIRES Project

The IRAS Galaxy Atlas

The IRAS Galaxy Atlas (IGA) is a high resolution image atlas of the Galactic plane at 60 and 100 microns, it has been produced using the IRAS satellite data. The HIRES program was developed by the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center (IPAC) to produce high resolution (~ 1 arcmin) images from IRAS data using the Maximum Correlation Method (H.H. Aumann, J.W. Fowler and M. Melnyk, 1990, Astronomical Journal, 99, 1674).

Improved Reprocessing of the IRAS Survey

This new generation of IRAS images, called IRIS, benefits from better zodiacal light subtraction, calibration and zero levels compatible with DIRBE, and better destriping. At 100 microns, the IRIS product is also a significant improvement over the Schlegel et al. (1998) maps. IRIS keeps the full ISSA resolution, includes well calibrated point sources, and the diffuse emission calibration at scales smaller than 1 degree was corrected for the variation of the IRAS detector responsivity with scale and brightness. The uncertainty on the IRIS calibration and zero levels is dominated by the uncertainty of the DIRBE calibration and the accuracy of the zodiacal light model.

2MASS Survey Point Source Reject Table

The 2MASS Survey Point and Extended Source "Reject" Tables (PSRT and XSRT) contain the 843,988,897 point and 943,441 extended source measurements from the Survey WDBs that were not selected for inclusion in the All-Sky Release Catalogs. The characteristics of entries in the Reject Tables differs between scans that were and were not selected for inclusion in the All-Sky Release:

In the 10,981 survey scans that were not selected for the All-Sky Release, the Reject Tables contain all point and extended source extractions. These include reliable detections of real astrophysical sources, spurious extractions of low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) events, image artifacts and transients such as cosmic rays and meteor trails.

In the 59,731 survey scans that were selected for the All-Sky Release, the Reject Tables contain only those extractions from the Survey WDBs that did not satisfy the source selection criteria used to construct the uniform and reliable All-Sky Release Catalogs. These include detections of faint sources and noise events that are below the Catalog flux and SNR thresholds, and spurious detections of image artifacts and transients. The Reject Tables also contain detections of brighter sources in the overlap regions between adjacent tiles that were removed during the Catalog multiple detection resolution process.

2MASS Calibration Merged Extended Source Information Table

Photometric calibration for 2MASS was performed using observations of calibration fields made at regular intervals during each night of survey operations. Measurements of standard stars in the fields were used to derive the photometric zero point offsets as a function of time during each night. Atmospheric extinction coefficients were derived from 2MASS observations made over long periods.

2MASS calibration fields, or tiles, are 1° long in declination and approximately 8.5' wide in right ascension. There are 35 regular survey calibration fields distributed at approximately two hour intervals in right ascension near declinations of approximately -30°, 0° and +30°. An additional five calibration fields were defined in and around the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds to support the deep observation (6x) campaign towards the end of survey operations.

Over the course of the survey, the regular calibration fields were scanned between 562 and 3692 times in nominally photometric conditions. Equatorial fields were observed from both observatories, so were observed more frequently than those near ±30° which were observed with only one telescope. The special Magellanic Cloud calibration fields were observed 108 to 468 times between November 2000 and February 2001.

The following table contains brief descriptions of the entries in the Survey, 6x and Calibration Merged Point Source Information Tables. The merged source tables contain the mean positions magnitudes and uncertainties for sources detected multiple times in each of the 2MASS data sets. The merging was carried out using an autocorrelation of the respective databases to identify groups of extractions that are positionally associated with each other, all lying within a 1.5" radius circular region. A number of confirmation statistics are also provided in the tables that can be used to test for source motion and/or variability, and the general quality of the merge.

2MASS 6X Extended Source Working Database Table

During the final months of 2MASS observatory operations, a campaign of targeted "long exposure" observations was carried out during times when no previously unscanned parts of the sky were available for the main survey. These observations used the same freeze-frame scanning technique employed for the survey, but with READ2-READ1 exposures six times longer than was used for normal survey observations (hence they are referred to as "6x" observations). The 2MASS 6x measurements were intended to probe ~1 magnitude deeper than the main survey in unconfused regions.

Approximately 590 deg2 of sky distributed in 30 targeted regions were scanned at least once using the long exposures. Most of this area is concentrated in two large, comprehensive surveys of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, 383 deg2 and 127 deg2, respectively. Twenty-eight additional smaller fields were mapped in the 6x mode from both observatories, covering targets that include the Pleiades open cluster, galactic star formation complexes, M31, nearby galaxy clusters and the Lockman Hole.

Data processing produced a 6x Image Atlas and 6x point and extended source Working Databases (6x-PSWDB and 6x-XSWDB), analogous to those from the main survey. "Catalogs" of point and extended source detections (6x-PSC and 6x-XSC) that represent uniform, higher reliability single-epoch snapshots of the near infrared sky were drawn from the 6x WDBs using SNR and quality criteria similar to those used to construct the All-Sky Release PSC and XSC (A3.6.c). The 6x-PSC and 6x-XSC have not received the same level of scrutiny and validation as the 2MASS All-Sky PSC and XSC, though.

Unlike the All-Sky Release Catalogs, the 6x Catalogs are not released as separate tables. The 6x Point and Extended Source Catalogs are instead integrated into the respective 6x Point and Extended Source WDBs. Sources comprising the Catalogs are denoted in the WDBs with the cat flag, and have cat="1".
