摘要:

经过8个月的连续观测,宽视场红外巡天探测器(WISE)绘制了整个天空的3.4 μm、4.6 μm、12 μm和22 μm图像。我们已经开始了一个专门的WISE高分辨率星系图集(WHRGA)项目,以充分表征大型,附近的星系,并产生一个遗留的图像图集和源目录。在这里,我们总结了去卷积技术,用于显着提高空间分辨率的WISE成像,专门设计用于研究附近星系的内部解剖。作为一个案例研究,我们目前的结果为星系NGC 1566,比较WISE超分辨率图像处理的斯皮策,GALEX和地面成像。这是两部分系列的第一篇论文;在第二篇论文中介绍了附近星系的更大样本的结果。

英文摘要:

After eight months of continuous observations, the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mapped the entire sky at 3.4 μm, 4.6 μm, 12 μm and 22 μm. We have begun a dedicated WISE High Resolution Galaxy Atlas (WHRGA) project to fully characterize large, nearby galaxies and produce a legacy image atlas and source catalogue. Here we summarize the deconvolution technique used to significantly improve the spatial resolution of WISE imaging, specifically designed to study the internal anatomy of nearby galaxies. As a case study, we present results for the galaxy NGC 1566, comparing the WISE super-resolution image processing to that of Spitzer, GALEX and ground-based imaging. The is the first paper in a two part series; results for a much larger sample of nearby galaxies is presented in the second paper.
