This paper presents multiwavelength photometric catalogues of the last two Hubble Frontier Fields (HFF), the massive galaxy clusters Abell 370 and RXC J2248.7-4431. The photometry ranges from imaging performed on the Hubble Space Telescope…

We present far-ultraviolet (FUV) images and catalogs from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Advanced Camera for Surveys/Solar Blind Channel (ACS/SBC) F150LP (about 1600 Angstrom) of three extragalactic fields: GOODS-S, GOODS-N, and COSMOS.…

Several independent lines of reasoning suggest that many of the very faint (B > 24) blue galaxies are low-mass objects that experienced a short epoch of star formation at redshifts 0.5 < z < 1 and have since faded into low luminosity, low…

The Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) was initiated with an extensive allocation (590 orbits in Cycles 12-13) using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) for high resolution imaging. Here we review the characteristics of the HST imaging with the…

We describe the construction of a catalogue of galaxies in the optical field of the Hubble Deep Field South. The HDF-S observations produced WFPC2 images in U, B, V, and I, the version 1 data have been made public on 23 November 1999. The…

High resolution, deep imaging surveys are instrumental in setting constraints on semi-analytical structure formation models in Cold Dark Matter (CDM) cosmologies. We show here that the lack of unresolved B-band ``dropouts'' with V > 25 mag…

The Hubble Deep Field-South (HDF-S) was chosen to have a QSO (RA 22:33:37.6 Dec -60:33:29 J2000 and B=17.5) in the field to allow for studies of absorption systems intersecting the sight line to the QSO. To assist in the planning of HDF-S…

Two supernovae detected in the Hubble Deep Field using the original December 1995 epoch and data from a shorter (63000 s in F814W) December 1997 visit with HST are discussed. The supernovae (SNe) are both associated with distinct galaxies…

The Hubble Deep Field South (HDF-S) HST observations are expected to begin in October 1998. We present a composite spectrum of the QSO in the HDF-S field covering UV/optical/near IR wavelengths, obtained by combining data from the ANU 2.3m…

We use a new technique to search for faint red stars in the Hubble Deep Field (HDF) imaged by the Wide Field Camera (WFC2) on the {\it Hubble Space Telescope}. We construct a densely sampled stellar light profile from a set of undersampled…

Images of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field are analyzed to obtain a catalog of galaxies for which the angular sizes, surface brightness, photometric redshifts, and absolute magnitudes are found. The catalog contains a total of about 4000…

We present an electronic catalog of infrared and optical photometry and photometric redshifts of 323 galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field South NICMOS field at http://www.ess.sunysb.edu/astro/hdfs/home.html. The analysis is based on infrared…

Extending over three Hubble Space Telescope (HST) cycles, the Hubble Frontier Fields (HFF) initiative constitutes the largest commitment ever of HST time to the exploration of the distant Universe via gravitational lensing by massive galaxy…

Using the Advanced Camera for Surveys on the Hubble Space Telescope, we have obtained deep optical images reaching well below the oldest main sequence turnoff in six fields of the Andromeda Galaxy. The fields fall at four positions on the…

We present a catalog of 74 galaxies detected serendipitously during a campaign of spectroscopic observations of the Hubble Deep Field North (HDF) and its environs. Among the identified objects are five candidate Ly-alpha emitters at z > 5,…

We have submitted to MAST the 1.5 version data release of the Hubble Legacy Fields (HLF) project covering a 25 x 25 arcmin area over the GOODS-S (ECDF-S) region from the HST archival program AR-13252. The release combines exposures from…

We aim to construct an exceptionally deep (V ~< 27) catalog of variable objects in selected Galactic and extragalactic fields visited multiple times by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). While HST observations of some of these fields were…

Photometric redshifts have been calculated for the Hubble Deep Fields. The redshift distributions of the fields differ; there is a large excess of galaxies in the HDF-North in the redshift range 0.4<z<1.2. The difference is consistent with…
