Photometry

Discovery (first detection):
Discovery date: 2023-10-30 00:00:00.000
Flux: 25.496 ABMag
Filter: Other-
Instrument: NIRCam
Telescope: James Webb Space Telescope

Remarks: Reported photometry comes from averaging F182M and F210M photometric measurements. We performed this averaging to create a pseudo-F200W measurement to compare against UNCOVER's F200W photometry. Filter is JWST - NIRCam-F182M/F210M.

Last non-detection:
Archival info: Other
Remarks: This source was not detected in the Ultra-deep NIRCam and NIRSpec Observations Before the Epoch of Reionization images (UNCOVER; Cycle 1, GO 2561; https://jwst-uncover.github.io/).
