Title

Herschel PACS Point Source Catalog 2 (HPPSC2): Rejected Source 100 micron

Description

The HPPSC2 project revisited all the photometric observations obtained by the PACS instrument on-board of the Herschel space observatory, using more advanced techniques than before, including machine learning techniques.

HPPSC2 includes a high-reliability and a rejected source catalogue for each PACS passband, i.e., at 70, 100, and 160 um. With the high-reliability catalogue, completeness in all bands is improved, especially at 70 um. At the same time, while the number of high-reliability detections decreased, the number of sources matching with existing catalogues increased, suggesting that the purity is also higher than before.

This dataset or service is made available by the Infrared Science Archive (IRSA) at IPAC, which is operated by the California Institute of Technology under contract with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
