The Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) is one of three focal plane instruments on board the Spitzer Space Telescope. IRAC is a four-channel camera that obtains simultaneous broad-band images at 3.6, 4.5,…
Star Formation in AEGIS Field Galaxies since z = 1.1: The Dominance of Gradually Declining Star Formation, and the Main Sequence of Star-forming Galaxies
- K. NoeskeB. Weiner Spitzer Science Center
- 31 January 2007
Physics
We analyze star formation (SF) as a function of stellar mass (M*) and redshift z in the All-Wavelength Extended Groth Strip International Survey. For 2905 field galaxies, complete to 1010(1010.8) M☉…
Absolute Calibration of the Infrared Array Camera on the Spitzer Space Telescope
- W. ReachS. Megeath G. Fazio
- 6 July 2005
Physics
The Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) on the Spitzer Space Telescope is absolutely calibrated by comparing photometry of a set of A stars near the north ecliptic pole to predictions based on ground‐based…

- P. BarmbyJ. HuchraJ. BrodieD. ForbesL. L. SchroderC. Grillmair
- 9 November 1999
Physics
We present a new catalog of photometric and spectroscopic data on M31 globular clusters (GCs). The catalog includes new optical and near-infrared photometry for a substantial fraction of the 435…
Spitzer View on the Evolution of Star-forming Galaxies from z = 0 to z ~ 3
- P. Pérez-GonzálezG. Rieke Christopher D. Martin
- 5 May 2005
Physics
We use a 24 μm-selected sample containing more than 8000 sources to study the evolution of star-forming galaxies in the redshift range from z = 0 to z ~ 3. We obtain photometric redshifts for most of…
CfA3: 185 TYPE Ia SUPERNOVA LIGHT CURVES FROM THE CfA
- M. HickenP. Challis P. Zhao
- 30 January 2009
Physics
We present multiband photometry of 185 type-Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), with over 11,500 observations. These were acquired between 2001 and 2008 at the F. L. Whipple Observatory of the…
The evolution of the hard X-ray luminosity function of AGN
- J. AirdK. Nandra C. Willmer
- 7 October 2009
Physics
We present new observational determinations of the evolution of the 2–10 keV X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of active galactic nuclei (AGN). We utilize data from a number of surveys including both…
Ultraviolet to Mid-Infrared Observations of Star-forming Galaxies at z ~ 2: Stellar Masses and Stellar Populations
- A. ShapleyC. Steidel Jiasheng Huang
- 22 March 2005
Physics
We present the broadband UV through mid-infrared spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of a sample of 72 spectroscopically confirmed star-forming galaxies at z = 2.30 ± 0.3. Located in a 72 arcmin2…
