TL;DR: The Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) is one of three focal plane instruments on the Spitzer Space Telescope as mentioned in this paper, which is a four-channel camera that obtains simultaneous broadband images at 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, and 8.0 m.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphology, near infrared luminosity, and mass of the galactic bulge from Cobe dirbe observations
E. Dwek,R. G. Arendt,M. G. Hauser,T. Kelsall,Carey M. Lisse,S. H. Moseley,Robert F. Silverberg,T. J. Sodroski,Janet Weiland +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used triaxial analytical functions to represent the volume emissivity of the source and confirmed the bar-like nature of the bulge and showed that triaxially Gaussian-type functions provide a better fit to the data than other classes of functions, including an axisymmetric spheroid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Number Counts At 3 < lambda < 10 um From the Spitzer Space Telescope
G. G. Fazio,M. L. N. Ashby,Pauline Barmby,Joseph L. Hora,J. S. Huang,M. A. Pahre,Z. Wang,Steven P. Willner,R. G. Arendt,Samuel H. Moseley,M. Brodwin,Peter Eisenhardt,Daniel Stern,Eric V. Tollestrup,Edward L. Wright +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, galaxy counts at wavelengths 3 < lambda < 10 um cover more than 10 magnitudes in source brightness, four orders of magnitude in surface density, and reach an integrated surface density of 10^5 sources/deg^2.
Journal ArticleDOI
COBE diffuse infrared background experiment observations of the galactic bulge
Janet L. Weiland,R. G. Arendt,G. B. Berriman,E. Dwek,Henry Freudenreich,M. G. Hauser,T. Kelsall,Carey M. Lisse,M. Mitra,S. H. Moseley,N. Odegard,Robert F. Silverberg,T. J. Sodroski,William Spiesman,S. W. Stemwedel +14 more
TL;DR: In this paper, low angular resolution maps of the Galactic bulge at 1.25, 2.2, 3.5, and 4.9 micrometers obtained by the Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment (DIRBE) onboard NASA's Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Star Formation in the Central 400 pc of the Milky Way: Evidence for a Population of Massive YSOs
F. Yusef-Zadeh,John W. Hewitt,R. G. Arendt,B. A. Whitney,George H. Rieke,Mark Wardle,Joannah L. Hinz,S. Stolovy,C. C. Lang,Michael G. Burton,Solange Ramirez +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used color-color diagrams and SED fits to explore the nature of YSO candidates (including objects with 4.5 micron excesses possibly due to molecular emission).
