Abstract (from CDS):

We present a catalog covering 1.62 deg2 of the COSMOS/UltraVISTA field with point-spread function (PSF) matched photometry in 30 photometric bands. The catalog covers the wavelength range 0.15-24 µm including the available GALEX, Subaru, Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope, VISTA, and Spitzer data. Catalog sources have been selected from the DR1 UltraVISTA Ks band imaging that reaches a depth of K_s, tot_= 23.4 AB (90% completeness). The PSF-matched catalog is generated using position-dependent PSFs ensuring accurate colors across the entire field. Also included is a catalog of photometric redshifts (zphot) for all galaxies computed with the EAZY code. Comparison with spectroscopy from the zCOSMOS 10k bright sample shows that up to z ∼ 1.5 the zphot are accurate to Δz/(1 + z) = 0.013, with a catastrophic outlier fraction of only 1.6%. The zphot also show good agreement with the zphot from the NEWFIRM Medium Band Survey out to z ∼ 3. A catalog of stellar masses and stellar population parameters for galaxies determined using the FAST spectral energy distribution fitting code is provided for all galaxies. Also included are rest-frame U - V and V - J colors, L2800 and LIR. The UVJ color-color diagram confirms that the galaxy bi-modality is well-established out to z ∼ 2. Star-forming galaxies also obey a star-forming "main sequence" out to z ∼ 2.5, and this sequence evolves in a manner consistent with previous measurements. The COSMOS/UltraVISTA Ks-selected catalog covers a unique parameter space in both depth, area, and multi-wavelength coverage and promises to be a useful tool for studying the growth of the galaxy population out to z ∼ 3-4.
