PEP PACS 160 micron Catalog

The PACS Evolutionary Probe (PEP, Lutz et al. 2011) is a Herschel guaranteed time deep extragalactic survey (KPGT_dlutz_1) targeting six among the most popular "blank fields", ten lensing clusters of galaxies, and two z ~1 clusters at wavelengths of 100, and 160 microns. PEP includes SPIRE observations of the two z ~1 clusters at wavelengths of 250, 350, and 500 microns. SPIRE coverage of all other fields is available from the HerMES survey (Oliver et al. 2010). In addition, deep SPIRE GOODS-N data are provided by the GOODS-Herschel program (Elbaz et al. 2011).PEP used the Starfinder IDL code (Diolaiti et al. 2000a,b) to blindly extract the PACS catalogs, by means of PSF-fitting. PEP adopted the "direct" noise maps and extracted PSFs directly from the observed maps (see documentation). The released catalogs include all sources above a S/N threshold of 3 sigma, derived directly from the measured fluxes and flux uncertainties. Users should keep in mind that the error estimate does not take into account confusion noise. PEP recommends to use any flux below 0.6 mJy in the green band and below 2.0 mJy in the red band with care.
