SPHEREx Data Release 1 (DR1) Available

SPHEREx Data Release 1 (DR1) is now available at IRSA! DR1 includes reprocessed spectral images that form a uniformly processed dataset with Quick Release 3 (QR3). It also includes an all-sky HiPS spectral cube covering 102 spectral channels from 0.75 to 5.0 µm. All of these data are available both on-premises at IRSA and in the cloud.

 

Euclid Data Release 1 (DR1) Available

The first installment of Euclid Data Release 1 (DR1) is now available at IRSA! Known as DR1-Foundation, this release includes approximately 1.8 PB of imaging, catalogs, and spectra covering approximately 1,900 square degrees of the Euclid Wide Survey, as well as observations of the Euclid Deep Fields, calibration fields, and other fields observed before the start of the nominal survey. All of these data are only available in the cloud.


Euclid Data Release 1 (DR1) is the first major public data release from the European Space Agency's Euclid mission, and it supersedes the earlier Euclid Quick Release 1 (Q1). Additional higher-level science products for galaxy clustering and weak lensing studies are expected in mid-2027.

 

IRSA Data Collection Explorer and Catalog Releases

SIMLA and HOPS are now available through IRSA's Data Collection Explorer. The data were previously accessible through an older interface, and are now integrated into DCE for easier access and discovery.


The VarWISE Associations Table is also now available in IRSA's Catalog Search tool, joining the VarWISE Pure and Extended Catalogs that were previously released.
