Here's how you obtain the Spitzer Enhanced Imaging Products Super Mosaics and Source
List from the SHA, or the Spitzer Heritage Archive. SEIP is Spitzer Enhanced Imaging
Products, and they consist of Super Mosaics and the Source List obtained from the Super
Mosaics. The SHA will allow you to search on names or enter coordinates. The default
search radius is fine. I recommend leaving the AOR box ticked, because it's the most
compact view of the observations. You must click SEIP Super Mosaics and Source List if
you want those things returned. Let's search!
It comes back with a list of the observations here. The Super Mosaics have a tab, and the
Source List has a tab. In the Super Mosaics, if you click on any of the mosaics in the
list, and go to the Data tab, you can interact with the FITS file. The catalog that is overlaid
there is the Source List. To remove the overlay temporarily, go over to the image toolbox,
go to plot layers, and unclick the "show source list." Then, from the Super Mosaics tab, click
on the individual files, and interact with the FITS files using the standard tool box.
On the Source List -- let's turn the overlay back on -- you can interact with the Source
List in either table format or graph format. If you click on any source in the image, that
source is highlighted in the catalog, and vice versa. You can click on the plot and
it will turn the catalog into an xy plot. By default, it comes up with Right Ascension
and Declination. You can change that. From the 'cols' link, you can click individual
columns to plot, or you can do simple mathematical manipulations. It will make the plot as you
requested. You can change the label and unit. You can also make it a log-log plot. The individual
objects in the plot, if you click, will be highlighted in the image, and if you go back
to table view, that item is highlighted in the catalog. From the Source List, you can
also click on the SED tab, and it will plot for you the flux density as a function of
wavelength for all of the columns that are available. If you click on individual objects,
the plot updates. If the data are available, it includes data from 2MASS, WISE, and Spitzer.
To save the Source List, click on the save button. To download Super Mosaics, click on
the individual objects [rows] you want, or click on the box at the top of the column
to select all. Click on "Prepare Download" and it will bundle it for you.
