Beginning of ReadMe : J/ApJS/155/1 Phoenix Deep Survey: optical and NIR catalogs (Sullivan+, 2004) ================================================================================ The Phoenix Deep Survey: optical and near-infrared imaging catalogs. Sullivan M., Hopkins A.M., Afonso J., Georgakakis A., Chan B., Cram L.E., Mobasher B., Almeida C. <Astrophys. J. Suppl. Ser., 155, 1-13 (2004)> =2004ApJS..155....1S ================================================================================ ADC_Keywords: Galaxy catalogs ; Photometry, UBVRI ; Photometry, Cousins ; Photometry, infrared ; Redshifts Keywords: cosmology: observations - galaxies: evolution - galaxies: photometry - galaxies: starburst - radio continuum: galaxies - surveys Abstract: The Phoenix Deep Survey is a multiwavelength galaxy survey based on deep 1.4GHz radio imaging. The primary goal of this survey is to investigate the properties of star formation in galaxies and to trace the evolution in those properties to a redshift z=1, covering a significant fraction of the age of the universe. By compiling a sample of star-forming galaxies based on selection at radio wavelengths we eliminate possible biases due to dust obscuration, a significant issue when selecting objects at optical and ultraviolet wavelengths. In this paper, we present the catalogs and results of deep optical (UBVRI) and near-infrared (Ks) imaging of the deepest region of the existing decimetric radio imaging. The observations and data processing are summarized and the construction of the optical source catalogs described, together with the details of the identification of candidate optical counterparts to the radio catalogs. Based on our UBVRIKs imaging, photometric redshift estimates for the optical counterparts to the radio detections are explored. Description: Two pointings (7, 3) were observed in BVRi, and one (pointing 11) in BVi on the nights of 2001 August 13 and 14, with the WFI camera on the AAT. The same three pointings were also observed in U with the Mosaic-II camera on the CTIO 4m Blanco telescope on 2002 September 3. Finally, four of the PDS fields (2, 3, 6, 7) were observed in U with the WFI on the ESO 2.2m on the night of 2001 August 18. Our NIR imaging data come from the Hawaii HgCdTe 1024x1024 pixel array SoFI camera on the 3.6m ESO New Technology Telescope (NTT). The field of view was 4.9'x4.9' with a pixel scale of 0.29". Nine contiguous pointings, in a 3x3 pattern, were observed over the deepest region of the PDS (a subregion of pointing 7; see Fig. 1), during 2000 October 10 and October 11.
