VizieR Online Data Catalog: MYStIX: Mid-IR observations and catalogs (Kuhn+, 2013)

The GLIMPSE survey is a Legacy Science Program of NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope to study star formation in the disk of the Milky Way Galaxy. It contains six MYStIX regions - the Lagoon Nebula, the Trifid Nebula, NGC 6334, the Eagle Nebula, M 17, and NGC 6357 - within the 2° wide strip along the Galactic equator (GLIMPSE I and II data releases). Furthermore, Spitzer images and photometry for RCW 38 and NGC 3576 come from the Vela-Carina survey (Majewski et al. 2007sptz.prop40791M), using a similar observing strategy with mosaicking and photometric analysis performed with the GLIMPSE pipeline.

We obtained publicly available raw IRAC images from the Spitzer Heritage Archive for nine MYStIX regions without GLIMPSE coverage. The target list and details of the Astronomical Observation Requests (AORs) are provided in Table 1. The camera spatial resolutions are FWHM=1.6" to 1.9" from 3.6 to 8.0um.
