MAST Staff - 2025 Jul 02New:
- The CAnadian NIRISS Unbiased Cluster Survey (CANUCS) is a JWST Cycle 1 GTO program targeting 5 lensing clusters and their adjacent flanking fields in parallel (Abell 370, MACS0416, MACS0417, MACS1149, MACS1423), using a unique combination of NIRCam imaging, NIRISS slitless spectroscopy, and NIRSpec prism multi-object spectroscopy. Fields centered on galaxy cluster cores include imaging in 7 wide and 1 medium band from 0.9–4.4 μm, alongside continuous NIRISS coverage from 1.15–2 μm, while the NIRCam flanking fields provide 5 wide and 9 medium band filters for exceptional spectral sampling, all to 29–30 mag. The HLSP team provides NIRCam, NIRISS and HST imaging, including custom modeling and subtraction of bright cluster galaxies, PSFs and PSF-matched imaging, photometric catalogs, photometric and spectroscopic redshifts, lens models, and stellar population parameters derived using both the Bagpipes and Dense Basis codes.
Updated:
- Amended QLP calibrated light curves with corrected timestamps from TESS full frame images for Sectors 74-79 are now available at MAST.
- TESS-SPOC was updated with calibrated light curves and target pixel files from TESS full frame images for Sector 74, which added >150k targets derived from 200 second cadence FFIs.
- TICA added quick-look, calibrated TESS full frame images from Sector 93, Orbit 1 (Parts A & B) and Orbit 2 (Part A), which are now available at MAST.
