Description:
This database contains a log of the Subaru Prime Focus Camera
(Suprime-Cam) exposures since April 2001. The data are regularly
updated, and the last date of the log is written in "File Summary".
Note that from this version of Nov. 2005, the data number is largely
increased because those data with worse position determination
(up to 30 arcsec error) are included.
Suprime-Cam is an 80-mega pixels (10240 x 8192) mosaic CCD camera, for
the wide-field prime focus of the 8.2m Subaru telescope. Suprime-Cam
covers a field of view 34'x27', a unique facility among the 8-10m
class telescopes, with a resolution of 0".202 per pixel. The focal
plane consists of ten high- resistivity 2kx2k CCDs developed by MIT
Lincoln Laboratory, which are cooled by a large Stirling-cycle cooler.
The CCD readout electronics was designed to be scalable, which allows
the multiple read-out of tens of CCDs. It takes 50 seconds to readout
entire arrays. A filter-exchange mechanism of the jukebox type is
designed that can hold up to ten large filters (205x170x15mm^3^).
The wide-field corrector is basically a three-lens Wynne- type, but
has a new type of atmospheric dispersion corrector. The corrector
provides a flat focal plane and an un-vignetted field of view of 30'
in diameter. The achieved co-planarity of the focal array mosaic is
smaller than 30um peak-to-peak, which realizes mostly the seeing
limited image over the entire field. The median seeing in the
I_c-band, measured over one year and a half, is 0".61. The PSF
anisotropy in Suprime-Cam images, estimated by stellar ellipticities,
is about 2% under this median seeing condition. At the time of
commissioning, Suprime-Cam had the largest survey speed, which is
defined as the field of view multiplied by the primary mirror area of
the telescope, among those cameras built for sub-arcsecond imaging.
