J/MNRAS/444/527 Tully-Fisher distances for Spitzer galaxies (Sorce+, 2014) ================================================================================ From Spitzer Galaxy photometry to Tully-Fisher distances. Sorce J.G., Tully R.B., Courtois H.M., Jarrett T.H., Neill J.D., Shaya E.J. =2014MNRAS.444..527S ================================================================================ ADC_Keywords: Galaxies, photometry ; Photometry, infrared ; Stars, distances Keywords: galaxies: photometry - distance scale - infrared: galaxies Abstract: This paper involves a data release of the observational campaign: Cosmicflows with Spitzer (CFS). Surface photometry of the 1270 galaxies constituting the survey is presented. An additional ~400 galaxies from various other Spitzer surveys are also analysed. CFS complements the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies, that provides photometry for an additional 2352 galaxies, by extending observations to low galactic latitudes (|b|<30{deg}). Among these galaxies are calibrators, selected in the K band, of the Tully-Fisher relation. The addition of new calibrators demonstrates the robustness of the previously released calibration. Our estimate of the Hubble constant using supernova host galaxies is unchanged, H_0_=75.2+/-3.3km/s/Mpc. Distance-derived radial peculiar velocities, for the 1935 galaxies with all the available parameters, will be incorporated into a new data release of the Cosmicflows project. The size of the previous catalogue will be increased by 20 percent, including spatial regions close to the Zone of Avoidance. Description: The post-basic calibrated data of the 1270 observed galaxies for the CFS programme are available at the Spitzer Heritage Archive. Every galaxy has been observed with the first channel of the IRAC instrument where a point spread function with a FWHM=1.66arcsec is sampled with 1.2arcsec/pixels. The field of view is 5.2x5.2arcmin^2^ which is adequate to include most galaxies beyond twice their diameter at the 25th isophote (mag/arcsec^2^) in the B band.
