News: the second incremental data release!

We are pleased to announce the 2nd incremental data release from HSC-SSP.  This release includes (1) emission-line object catalog from Hayashi et al. (2017), (2) weak-lensing simulation data from Mandelbaum et al. (2017), and (3) deep, multi-band photometric catalog from Mehta et al. (2017).  In addition, two new data retrieval tools are available: PSF picker and postage-stamp retriever.  The former is an online tool, where a user can upload a coordinate list and retrieve PSF models at the input positions.  This will be useful for detailed analysis of object shapes.  The latter is a client tool, with which a user can download postage stamps of multiple objects in color.   For details, follow the links from the Data Access page.

Public Data Release 1

Welcome to the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program Data Release Site!

The first public release of HSC-SSP occurred on 28 February 2017.  The release includes over 100 square degrees of deep multi-color data served through dedicated databases and user interfaces.  The figures below shows the area covered in this release and the table gives an overview of the data in the three survey layers.  Refer to our survey website for details of the survey design.

If you use the HSC data in your publication, please acknowledge us.

Please note that only the processed HSC data are available on this site.  The raw data can be retrieved from SMOKA.

Here is a list of technical papers for your reference.  Please reference relevant papers in your publications.  PASJ special issue for HSC-SSP has been published and many of the papers here are included in that issue.
