| About The Data | |
| Data Description | These images were created from Hubble data from proposals (PI: S. Faber, University of California, Santa Cruz) and (PI: A. Riess (STScI/JHU). The lead author on the paper is S. Rodney (JHU). |
| Instrument | HST>ACS/WFC and HST>WFC3/IR |
| Exposure Dates | Data used in these images were taken in 2010 and 2011. |
| Filters | ACS/WFC: F435W (B), F606W (V), F775W (i), and F850LPW (z); WFC3/IR: F105W (Y), F125W (J), and F160W (H) |
| About The Image | |
| Color Info | This image is a composite of separate exposures acquired by the WFC3 and ACS instruments on HST. Several filters were used to sample broad wavelength ranges. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to each monochromatic (grayscale) image associated with an individual filter. In this case, the assigned colors are: Blue: F435W (B) + F606W (V) Green: F775W (i) + F850LPW (z) Red: F105W (Y) + F125W (J) + F160W (H) |
