Description:
The UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) is a large-scale near-IR
survey which aim is to cover 7500 square degrees of the Northern sky.
The survey is carried out using the Wide Field Camera (WFCAM), with a
field of view of 0.21 square degrees, mounted on the 3.8m United
Kingdom Infra-red Telescope (UKIRT) in Hawaii. The project comprises
five surveys (LAS, GCS, DXS, GPS and UDS).
The Large Area Survey (LAS) covers an area of 4000 square degrees in
high Galactic latitudes (extragalactic) in the four bands Y(1.0um)
J(1.2um) H(1.6um) and K(2.2um) to a depth of K=18.4. This release 9
includes proper motions for a fraction ( 1/6) of the sources.
The Galactic Clusters Survey (GCS) aims to survey ten large open star
clusters and star formation associations, covering a total of 1067
square degrees in the five bands Z (0.9um), Y(1.0um) J(1.2um) H(1.6um)
and K(2.2um), plus a second pass in K for proper motions, to a depth
of Z=20.4, Y=20.3, J=19.5, H=18.6, K=18.6. This release 9
includes proper motions for a fraction ( 1/4) of the sources.
The Deep Extragalactic Survey (DXS) aims to map 35 square degrees of
sky to a 5-sigma point-source sensitivity of J=22.3 and K=20.8 in
four carefully selected, multi-wavelength survey areas. The central
regions of each field will also be mapped to H=21.8. The primary aim
of the survey is to produce a photometric galaxy sample at a redshift
of 1-2, within a volume comparable to that of the SDSS, selected in
the same passband (rest frame optical).
Details of the surveys can be found in the in the paper by Lawrence
et al. (2007MNRAS.379.1599L), and at the UKIDSS Surveys site
(http://www.ukidss.org/surveys/surveys.html). The data described here
represent a subset of the UKIDSS data, limited to the public data and
most representative columns. In the "Byte-by-byte Description" below
the original names of the columns are given as bracketed names.
Usage of the UKIDSS data:
All users of UKIDSS data should include an acknowledgement in their
publications as follows: "This work is based in part on data obtained
as part of the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey".
