开普勒场的UBV测光巡天

A UBV Photometric Survey of the Kepler Field

Mark E. Everett, Steve B. Howell, Karen Kinemuchi

摘要:

我们提出的动机和方法,我们用来创建一个新的地面测光调查的领域由美国宇航局开普勒任务的目标。该调查包含一个或多个UBV过滤器中的4414002个源的幅度,包括在所有三个过滤器中检测到的1862902个源。典型的完整性极限是U~18.7,B~19.3和V~19.1等,但因位置而异。覆盖面积为191平方度,包括42个开普勒CCD上和之间的区域以及开普勒场周边的其他区域。这次调查的主要意义是我们在开普勒输入目录中提供的光学带通覆盖范围中增加了U,这主要限于更红的SDSS griz和D51过滤器。U覆盖范围揭示了该领域最热的源的样本,其中许多目前不是开普勒的目标,但可能是天体物理学感兴趣的对象。

英文摘要:

We present the motivations for and methods we used to create a new ground-based photometric survey of the field targeted by the NASA Kepler Mission. The survey contains magnitudes for 4414002 sources in one or more of the UBV filters, including 1862902 sources detected in all three filters. The typical completeness limit is U~18.7, B~19.3, and V~19.1 magnitudes, but varies by location. The area covered is 191 square degrees and includes the areas on and between the 42 Kepler CCDs as well as additional areas around the perimeter of the Kepler field. The major significance of this survey is our addition of U to the optical bandpass coverage available in the Kepler Input Catalog, which was primarily limited to the redder SDSS griz and D51 filters. The U coverage reveals a sample of the hottest sources in the field, many of which are not currently targeted by Kepler, but may be objects of astrophysical interest.
