TL;DR
This paper presents the fifth data release of JWST's JADES survey, providing deep NIRCam imaging in GOODS fields to study early galaxies, with detailed data reduction, characterization, and combined mosaics for advanced astronomical research.
Contribution
It introduces the comprehensive NIRCam imaging data release for JADES DR5, including data processing, characterization, and combined mosaics across multiple programs and filters.
Findings
Deep infrared mosaics covering 469 arcmin$^2$ with up to 18 filters.
Characterized photometric properties, PSF, and astrometry of the data.
Includes co-reductions of 19 programs for enhanced analysis.
Abstract
We present the Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) imaging products of the fifth data release (DR5) of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES). The JADES survey is one of the most ambitious programs yet conducted on JWST, producing deep infrared imaging and multiobject spectroscopy on the GOODS-S and GOODS-N extragalactic deep fields in order to explore galaxies to the earliest epoch. Here we describe the NIRCam data reduction procedures that result in deep and well-characterized mosaics in up to 18 filters covering 469 arcmin, with 250 arcmin having at least 8 filters of coverage. This release contains the full NIRCam imaging of JADES, over 800 JWST mission hours, as well as co-reductions of 19 other programs in these two premier deep fields. We perform detailed tests on the final data products, thereby characterizing the photometric…
