GOODS South Field WFC3/ERS Detail

The image was created from Hubble WFC3 data from proposal 11359, R. O'Connell (University of Virginia) and collaborators, combined with the HST/ACS GOODS v2.0, which includes data from proposals 9425 and 9583, P.I. M. Giavalisco; 9727, P.I. Saul Perlmutter; 9728, 10339, and 10340, P.I. A. Riess.

WFC3/IR: F098M, F125W, and F160W
ACS/WFC: F435W, F606W, F775W, and F850LP
WFC3/UVIS: F225W, F275W, and F336W

The image is a composite of separate exposures made by the WFC3 and ACS instruments on the Hubble Space Telescope. In total, 10 filters were used to sample a very wide wavelength range. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to combinations of the monochromatic images. In this case, the assigned colors are:

Red: WFC3/IR F125W + F160W
Green: ACS/WFC F606W + F775W + F850LP + WFC3/IR F098M
Blue: WFC3/UVIS F225W + F275W + F336W + ACS/WFC F435W
