Abell 1763 MIPS 70 micron Catalog

Published by NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Metadata Last Checked: February 21, 2026 | Last Modified: 2026-02-17
The Abell 1763 data set includes images in 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.Approximately 30% of the 70 micron image is not covered by the 24 micron image (nor the IRAC, MIPS 160 micron, or WIRC fields of view). A separate catalog for these 733 sources is presented here. This catalog was matched against the 2MASS Point Source Catalog but NIR magnitudes are not included as only ~7% of the sources have 2MASS associations.
