COSMOS Photometric Redshift Catalog mag limit 25 Definitions The COSMOS Archive serves data taken for the Cosmic Evolution Survey COSMOS project.COSMOS is an astronomical survey designed to probe the formation and evolution of galaxies as a function of cosmic time redshift and large scale structural environment. The survey covers a 2 square degree equatorial field with imaging by most of the major space-based telescopes Hubble, Spitzer, GALEX, XMM, Chandra and a number of large ground based telescopes Subaru, VLA, ESO-VLT, UKIRT, NOAO, CFHT, and others . IRSA serves the COSMOS archive using the following search methods: Spatial search on all images and small catalogs, using Atlas Advanced search on only the larger catalogs, using Gator COSMOS Photometric Redshift Catalog, version 1.5, mag limig 25, Column Definitions Gator serves the COSMOS October 2008 Photometric Redshift Catalog 55 columns [50 delivered + 5 IRSA-created], 385,065 data rows .
