VizieR Online Data Catalog: σ Orionis cluster stellar population (Hernandez+, 2014)

We obtained optical photometry (UBVR_CI_C) of the center on 2011 December 24 using the Ohio State Multi-Object Spectrograph (OSMOS) on the MDM 2.4 m Hiltner telescope (Stoll et al. 2010SPIE.7735E..4LS; Martini et al. 2011PASP..123..187M). We obtained two sets of images, one short exposure set (20, 15, 10, 5, and 5 s for U, B, V, R_C and I_C, respectively) and one long exposures set (3x200, 3x200, 3x150, 3x100, and 3x100 s for U, B, V, R_C, and I_C, respectively). The initial sample in this study includes all Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) sources (4659 sources; Cutri et al. 2003yCat.2246....0C) in a region of 48'x48' centered at RA=84.7° and DE=-2.6°. This region covers the field studied in H07b (Hernandez et al. 2007, J/ApJ/662/1067) using the four channels of the InfraRed Array Camera (IRAC; Fazio et al. 2004ApJS..154...39F). The 2MASS catalog (Cutri et al. 2003yCat.2246....0C, Cat.II/246) is complete down to J<15.8, which includes stars beyond the substellar limit expected for the σ Orionis cluster (e.g., J~14.6; Hernandez et al. 2007, J/ApJ/662/1067).
