These statistics are based on 935 u ∗ , 978 g, 1669 r, 1064 i and 1177 z-band images (the 220 y-band images have been ignored here). The variations are estimated from the comparison between the mean seeing (FWHM) averaged over the MegaCam field of view and the mean seeing averaged over a CCD field of view. The statistics are computed over the 36 CCDs composing the mosaic. The CCDs are numbered using the CEA-CFHT CCD reference number laid out on the central figure. The left panel show the difference 〈FHWM〉CCD − 〈FHWM〉MegaCam expressed in arcseconds. The horizontal axis is the CEA-CFHT CCD reference number. One can see that for the CCDs at the edges of the detector, the differences never exceed 0.065", and the highest peak-to-peak amplitude is less than 0.1". The right panel shows the seeing contrast |〈FHWM〉 CCD−〈FWHM〉MegaCam| 〈FWHM〉MegaCam . The contrast is always lower than 10% and the highest peak-to-peak contrast amplitudes are always less than 15%. Overall, the range of seeing values over the MegaCam field of view is acceptable. However, at the extreme corners of MegaCam, the seeing difference with the mean value can be as large as 0.25". Only the most extreme positions have a large PSF degradation and images that no longer meet the specifications of the surveys. We discard these regions by adding extra polygons to the T0007 .reg files that mask the edges of all stacks. The fraction of the MegaCam field discarded is less than 3%. i r i r 40
Figure 28: Completeness calculation for the W3 stack CFHTLS_W_i_142939+514231. Left panel: The blue and red lines shows the completeness for point-like and extended sources respectively. The green dots show the best fitting functions which are used to derive the completeness values. Right panel: galaxy counts derived automatically by QualityFITS from this stack. The red line shows the expectations for the MegaCam i-filter. The green line is the 80% completeness limit of extended objects. 4.3 Depth and completeness limits The depth of the survey tile is measured by the completeness limit. It is determined for each stack and each filter separately. The depth is also checked by using the galaxy counts computed after the production of each stack, as part of the QualityFITS analysis. All completeness galaxy count plots are available from the T0007 synoptic table 22 . To compute the completeness limit, we used image simulations produced by SkyMaker(Bertin, 2009). Noiseless images of point-like (stars or galaxy bulges) and disk-like (spiral galaxies) sources have been simulated by combining spheroid and disk models, using de Vaucouleur and exponential light profiles, respectively. The star and galaxy number densities of simulated sources correspond to the expectations for typical CFHTLS exposure times. Their slope and normalization are based on realistic luminosity function in a standard Λ-CDM cosmology (for galaxies), and are produced according to the transmission of the MegaCam filters. The sources are then convolved by a PSF that takes into account the pupil of the CFHT telescope (mirrors and arms) and other components of the PSF. The PSF is built by using the diffraction and the simplest aberration components of the CFHT telescope, as well as the typical atmospheric contributions that degrade long exposures. A set of simulations are produced with PSF FWHM ranging from 0.4 ′′ to 1.3 ′′ . For each stack, the simulated images with the closest PSF in FWHM size is then used to compute the final completeness. This “adaptive FWHM” method gives rise to larger dispersion in the completeness distribution compared to T0006. The T0007 completeness encompass both the exposure time and depth effect, as well as the image quality. The point source completeness is therefore more affected than the extended objects one. The completeness limit is then derived from the averaged completeness value over the central 10000×10000 MegaCam fields. The statistics are computed in each field separately and for each filter. The output is the fraction of sources detected and measured as a function of magnitude. The magnitudes at 80% and 22 http://terapix.iap.fr/cplt/T0007/table_syn_T0007.html 41
