Notes. mlim, SBbkg, and texp are 10σ (S/N = 10) limiting magnitude within 2″ aperture, the background surface brightness, and total exposure time of the final mosaic, respectively. The values for Euclid are not updated to the latest estimates of the actual in-flight values because that information was not available at the time of our analysis. For the LSST images, we adopt the depths from a single visit (i.e. exposure), which will be available for a wide area soon after the survey is started, not the final depths after 10 years of the survey.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
