We have developed a new ISOCAM data reduction technique based on wavelet analysis, especially designed for the detection of faint sources in mid-infrared surveys. This method, the Pattern REcognition Technique for Isocam data (PRETI) has…
We present deep imaging at 6.7 micron and 15 micron from the CAM instrument on the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO), centred on the Hubble Deep Field (HDF). These are the deepest integrations published to date at these wavelengths in any…
ISOCAM was used to perform a deep survey through three gravitationally lensing clusters of galaxies. Nearly seventy sq. arcmin were covered over the clusters A370, A2218 and A2390. We present maps and photometry at 6.7 & 14.3 microns,…
We present a new technique to quantify the light contribution coming from the faint high redshift ($z\sim6$) galaxies below the detection threshold of imaging data, set conventionally at S/N=4.5. We illustrate the technique with an…
We present an extended analysis of the SCUBA observations of the Hubble Deep Field (HDF), expanding the areal coverage of the Hughes et al. 1998 study by a factor of ~1.8 and containing at least three further sources in addition to the five…
We present positions and fluxes of point sources found in the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) images of the Hubble Deep Field (HDF) at 6.7 and 15 micron. We have constructed algorithmically selected ``complete'' flux-limited samples of 19…
We present here the results of a deep survey in a 0.4 sq.deg. blank field in Selected Area 57 conducted with the ISOPHOT instrument aboard ESAs Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) at both 60 um and 90 um. The resulting sky maps have a spatial…
We present results from a deep mid-infrared survey of the Hubble Deep Field South (HDF-S) region performed at 7 and 15 micron with the CAM instrument on board the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). The final map in each band was constructed…
The FIRBACK (Far InfraRed BACKground) survey represents the deepest extensive 170 micron images obtained by the ISO satellite. The sources detected comprise about 10% of the Cosmic IR Background (CIB) seen by COBE, and, importantly, were…
We present source counts at 6.7 micron and 15 micron from our maps of the Hubble Deep Field region, reaching 38.6 microJy at 6.7 micron and 255 microJy at 15 micron. These are the first ever extra-galactic number counts to be presented at…
We present a spectroscopic analysis of 21 galaxies with z=0.2-1.5 drawn from a 25 sq. arcmin ultra-deep 15 micron ISOCAM survey centered in the HDFS. VLT/ISAAC spectra are reported for 18 sources, aimed at detecting the redshifted Ha.…
We present results of a deep mid-infrared survey in the SSA13 field with the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). In order to probe the near-infrared light at high redshifts, we surveyed the field with the broad band LW2 (5-8.5um) filter of…
We present new data processing techniques that allow to correct the main instrumental effects that degrade the images obtained by ISOCAM, the camera on board the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). Our techniques take advantage of the fact…
(Abridged) We present a new method for detecting and measuring compact sources in conditions of intense, and highly variable, fore/background. While all most commonly used packages carry out the source detection over the signal image, our…
We present a detailed reduction of a mid-infrared 12um (LW10 filter) ISOCAM open time observation performed on the ESO-Sculptor Survey field (Arnouts et al. 1997). A complete catalogue of 142 sources (120 galaxies and 22 stars), detected…
We present imaging results and source counts from a deep ISOCAM cosmological survey at 15 microns, through gravitationally lensing galaxy clusters. We take advantage of the cluster gravitational amplification to increase the sensitivity of…
Deep 6.75um mid-IR ISOCAM observations were obtained of the Canada-France Redshift Survey (CFRS) 1415+52 field with the Infrared Space Observatory. The identification of the sources with optical counterparts is described in detail, and a…
We demonstrate two new approaches that have been developed to aid the production of future hard X-ray catalogs, and specifically to reduce the reliance on human intervention during the detection of faint excesses in maps that also contain…
We have developed a new data reduction technique for ISOCAM LW data and have applied it to the European Large Area ISO Survey (ELAIS) LW3 (15 micron) observations in the southern hemisphere (S1). This method, known as LARI technique and…
