Millimeter-Wave Survey of the Lockman Hole: 324 arcmin2 Galactic Plane Survey: 192 deg2 Ophiuchus, Perseus, and Serpens fields in the C2D Spitzer Legacy program area. |
| Instruments: | Bolocam is a large-format bolometric camera for observations at 1.1 and 2.1 mm using the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory. The camera has 115 working pixels with 8 arcmin FOV (approximately circular). The beam FWHM is 30 arcsec at 1.1 mm and 60 arcsec at 2.1 mm. At all wavelengths, the pixel spacing (nearest neighbors of hexagonal close-packed array) is 38 arcsec. |
| Science Products Generated: | Images and catalogs in survey fields. |
