Data

The AKARI-LMC Point Source Catalogue [ TEXT (48MB) ]
"Catalogue" includes sources that have counterparts in the version 3.1 of the SAGE-PSC (Meixner et al. 2006 AJ, 132, 2268) with a positional tolerance of 3 arcsec.

The AKARI-LMC Point Source Archive [ TEXT (37MB) ]
"Archive" includes all detected sources and thus has more and fainter sources than "Catalogue", which may contain potential false detection or sources with larger photometric uncertainties.

Note: The use of this catalogue for the scientific analysis should follow the guidelines for publication.
