Overview
|
The Frontier Fields is a Spitzer and HST Director's Discretionary program of six
deep fields centered on strong lensing galaxy clusters in parallel with six deep
"blank fields". These are the deepest observations of clusters and their lensed
galaxies ever obtained by Spitzer, and the second deepest observations of blank
fields.
Here we provide access to the second release of the Spitzer Frontier Fields
data, which comprises the Director's Discretionary Time (DDT) and public
archival data available for the Frontier Fields clusters as of Dec 1, 2015. The
second data release supercedes the first data release and features improved
reductions with better artifact correction and deeper data.
