The European Large Area ISO Survey: ELAIS

الأصل · EN

The European Large Area ISO Survey (ELAIS) has surveyed 12 square degrees of the sky at 15mu and 90mu and subsets of this area at 6.75mu and 175mu using the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). This project was the largest single open time programme executed by ISO, taking 375 hours of data. A preliminary catalogue of more than 1000 galaxies has been produced. In this talk we describe the goals of the project and present a provisional number count analysis at 15 µm.
