WFCAM is a near-IR wide field camera for the UKIRT telescope on Mauna Kea, Hawaii that has been designed specifically to carry out large-scale survey observations such as the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS).

All users

UKIDSS (UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey) is the next generation near-infrared sky survey, the successor to 2MASS using the infrared WFCAM survey instrument attached to the UK InfraRed Telescope (UKIRT) on Mauna Kea, Hawaii. UKIDSS began in May 2005 and will survey 7500 square degrees of the Northern sky, extending over both high and low Galactic latitudes, in JHK to K=18.3. This depth is three magnitudes deeper than 2MASS. UKIDSS will be the true near-infrared counterpart to the Sloan survey, and will produce as well a panoramic clear atlas of the Galactic plane.

MegaPrime is the wide-field optical imaging facility at CFHT (Canada-France-Hawaii telescope) atop Mauna Kea, Hawaii. At the heart of MegaPrime is the wide-field imager, MegaCam, consisting of 36 2048 x 4612 pixel CCDs (a total of 340 megapixels), covering a full 1 degree x 1 degree field-of-view with a resolution of 0.187 arcsecond per pixel to properly sample the 0.7 arcsecond median seeing offered by the CFHT at Mauna Kea.

The Wide-field Imaging Survey Evaluation of Readiness (WISER) project seeks to evaluate the readiness of our system to deal with large-scale survey data from wide-field imagers.

OMA (ontological machine for Astro-Wise) is a prototype of the system for incorporation of external data sources in Astro-Wise. It will be used to test scientific use cases for OMA as well.

In december 2009 the CCD 'Sculptor' of the OmegaCAM detector was replaced. The data in this project were taken to confirm the success of this procedure. RawFitsData were created artificially; the order of extensions is not constant or the same as in the other OCAM datasets.

OmegaWhite is a variability survey aimed at periods of less than 2 hours. Using the wide-field camera OmegaCam on the VLT Survey Telescope (VST) 400 square degrees will be monitored for 2 hours in g' and in addition colour information will be obtained by imaging the same area in u', r', i' and narrow band He (5015) and Halpha filters. OmegaWhite is part of the European Galactic Plane Surveys (EGAPS). For additional information on OmegaWhite please have a look at this OmegaWhite survey website - http://www.astro.ru.nl/omegawhite/

ACAM is mounted permanently at a folded-Cassegrain focus of the 4.2-m William Herschel Telescope. It can be used for high-throughput broad-band imaging, narrow-band imaging and low-resolution spectroscopy.

The Spitzer Adaptation of the Red-sequence Cluster Survey is a z'-passband imaging survey of the SWIRE Legacy Survey Fields. Observations of the six fields have been made at all seven Spitzer (3.6, 4.5, 5.8, 8.0, 24, 70, 160 micron) passbands. SpARCS consists of deep (z'= 24 AB) observations made from both hemispheres using MegaCam at CFHT (Northern Fields) and MOSAICII at CTIO (Southern Fields). The cluster detection (z'-imaging) phase is now complete and has yielded hundreds of z > 1 cluster candidates detected based upon z'-[3.6] color. With a total effective area of 41.9 square degrees, SpARCS is currently the largest completed z > 1 cluster survey. This project is for the processing of new (DECAM) and legacy SpARCS data.

One of three large surveys on the William Herschel Telescope (WHT) will be WEAVE-Clusters using the WEAVE Spectrograph. This will study cluster evolution through an analysis of the internal kinematics and stellar populations of dwarf galaxies. In preparation of this survey, deep imaging will be obtained with Wide Field Camera (WFC) on the Isaac Newton Telescope (INT) for some of these clusters. The resulting data set will be analyzed using special photometric techniques developed for the VST-Fornax Survey.

In this project we observed with VST-OmegaCam in the ugri bands a sample of galaxy clusters selected from the Planck-SZ catalog at different redshifts. The data will be used to calibrate the mass estimate of the clusters by weak-lensing and the cluster mass/richness relation, that will be applied to larger samples available from other surveys such as KiDS
