This is a page about the PRIMUS project.

The COSMOS field is a large HST pointing with lots of multiwavelength coverage. It is meant to be our bread and butter science for Spring 2006.

The priorities are:

  1. SDSS_CALIB (102): SDSS F-stars (~ 30)
  2. COSMOS_GALAXY, COSMOS_GALAXY_FAINT (202): COSMOS 17.3<i<22.7 galaxies plus 30% of 22.7<i<23.2 galaxies, density dependent sparse sampled (~ 2000)
  3. COSMOS_GALAXY_FILL (302): Remainder of 17.3<i<22.7 galaxies (~ 300)
  4. COSMOS_GALAXY_FAINT_FILL (402): Remainder of 30% of 22.7<i<23.2 galaxies (~ 30)
  5. COSMOS_PSF (502): COSMOS PSFs with i<23.2 (~ 300)
  6. COSMOS_GALAXY_FAINT_FILL2 (602): The other 70% of 22.7<i<23.2 galaxies (~ 300)
  7. COSMOS_GALAXY_FAINTEST (702): COSMOS galaxies with 23.2<i<24.0 (~ 800)
  8. SKY (10000): sky slits (~ 100)

There are about 4000 total in a mask.
