RELICS: Reionization Lensing Cluster Survey

2019 
We thank Lindsey Bleem for providing Magellan Megacam LDSS3 images of SPT0254-58 and AS295 prior to RELICS to inform our HST observations of these clusters. We thank Florian Pacaud and Matthias Klein for discussions regarding our AS295 HST pointings. We thank Dale Kocevski for an image of RXC 0142+44 obtained with the University of Hawaii 2.2 m telescope. And we thank Stella Seitz et al. for sharing their HST observations of PLCK G287+32 obtained during the same cycle. We thank the STScI and SSC directors and time allocation committees for enabling these large observing programs. We are grateful to our HST program coordinator William Januszewski for implementing the RELICS HST observations. We thank Jennifer Mack for expert mentoring of our HST image reduction gurus RA and SO. And we thank Gabriel Brammer for providing an updated WFC3/IR hot pixel mask derived from science observations from GO 14114. The RELICS Hubble Treasury Program (GO 14096) consists of observations obtained by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope (HST). HST is operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc. (AURA), under NASA contract NAS5-26555. Data from the NASA/ESA HST presented in this paper were obtained from the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST), operated by the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI). STScI is operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc..(AURA), under NASA contract NAS 5-26555. The HST Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) was developed under NASA contract NAS 5-32864. Spitzer Space Telescope data presented in this paper were obtained from the NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive (IRSA), operated by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology. Spitzer and IRSA are operated by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, under contract with NASA. We gratefully acknowledge support from JPL for the Spitzer analysis. M.B. and V.S. also acknowledge support by NASA through ADAP grant 80NSSC18K0945, NASA/HST through HST-GO-14096, HST-GO-13666, and two awards issued by Spitzer/JPL/Caltech associated with the SRELICS_DEEP and SRELICS programs. Part of this work by W.D. was performed under the auspices of the U.S..DOE by LLNL under contract DE-AC5207NA27344. K.U. acknowledges support from the Ministry of Science and Technology of Taiwan (grant MOST 106-2628M-001-003-MY3) and from Academia Sinica (grant AS-IA107-M01). O.G. is supported by an NSF Astronomy and Astrophysics Fellowship under award AST-1602595. S.A.R. was supported by NASA grant HST-GO-14208 from STScI, which is operated by Associated Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc. (AURA), under NASA contract NAS 5-26555. A.M. acknowledges the financial support of the Brazilian funding agency FAPESP (Post-doc fellowshipprocess No. 2014/11806-9).
