Team Discussion:CLASH DATA RELEASE PLAN September 2013 London
From our original MCT proposal: “To optimize the scientific potential of our survey data, we will deliver a suite of powerful high-level science products to STScI for distribution to the community via MAST. These products will include: • the co-added ACS and WFC3 images for all clusters in all filters, • the corresponding registered X-ray surface brightness images, • the calibrated lensing-derived mass and source magnification maps, • the source catalogs with all photometric redshift information, • Supernovae coordinates and their light curves and grism spectra, • associated redshift catalogs of cluster and lensed galaxies, • associated wide-field imaging from the ground.” At the time of the proposal, we didn’t envision having SZE or Spitzer data for all CLASH clusters but it could be considered to be part of the last item (associated imaging). The DR schedule given in proposal indicated that final version of our data products above would be delivered to MAST @ STScI 1 year after the last CLASH observations, which would correspond to the July 2014. While not a “contractual” deadline, I think we should try to aim for a release of most of the supporting science data by this timeframe. LET’S DISCUSS …
