#Misaligned colored composite images

  • c_cld by c_cld

    colored composite AGZ0000yna shows a misalignment of I-band with the two NIR bands J and H.
    chromatic order supposed: I-band is blue, J-band green, H-band red
    More easily and obviously seen in colored composite stars!

    same remark of misalignment for AGZ0000spm and answer by Brooke in forum on AGZ0000spm.
    Quoting Candels site:
    The core of CANDELS is the revolutionary near-infrared WFC3 camera, installed on Hubble in May 2009. WFC3 is sensitive to longer, redder wavelengths, which permits it to follow the stretching of lightwaves caused by the expanding Universe. This enables CANDELS to detect and measure objects much farther out in space and nearer to the Big Bang than before. CANDELS also uses the visible-light ACS camera, and together the two cameras give unprecedented panchromatic coverage of galaxies from optical wavelengths to the near-IR.
