cds-question@unistra.frinterstellar-mediuminfrared-sourcesWe present a listing of prominent filamentary structures in the interstellar cirrus, selected with an eye toward current and planned far-infrared and submillimeter polarimetry facilities. The filaments were identified on the 100{mu}m plates of the IRAS Sky Survey Atlas (ISSA, Wheelock et al. 1994, IRAS Sky Survey Atlas: Explanatory Supplement (JPL Publ. 94-11; Pasadena: JPL)), using a computer vision algorithm that is unbiased with respect to source intensity. Our catalog is two-tiered: the selection criteria in the Galactic plane are based on the sensitivity limits of airborne polarimeters such as the proposed HALE instrument for SOFIA, and away from the plane the limits are dictated by the sensitivities of balloon-borne cosmic microwave background experiments, such as BOOMERanG and MAXIMA. Infrared detector technology is currently at the point where detecting the polarization of the interstellar cirrus is feasible, and we hope this catalog will assist any experimenter undertaking this task.2003ApJS..149..365Jhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJS/149/365CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicehttps://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJS/149/365https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJS/149/365http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJS/149/365https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJS/149/365https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJS/149/365http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJS/149/365GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/ApJS/149/365/tables (List of filaments)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/149/365/tables?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/149/365/tables?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/149/365/tables?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true41.984788.40070.0055555555555555566/53 55 74 85 95 96 97 98 108 118 266 268 345 347 353 584 597 771 778 799 869 3011 3290 3303 3310 3755 4044 4092 14287 14608 14610 14614 14631 14649 14660 14678 14716 14788 14790 16129 16250 21391 23150 23338 23410 23442 23452 23455 23496 23506 23522 23547 28719 28800 28801 28882 28922 29082 30317 30732 30733 30776 30781 30799 30869 30870 30927 30930 30939 31017 31026 31036 31121 31257 33077 33090 33091 33098 33099 33106 33107 33121 33123 33124 36909 37008 37010 37052 37054 37055 37215 37339 37368 37893 37897 41591 41663 41735 41757 41859 42222 42223 42364 42403 42419 42467 42471 42970 42983 44301 44307 44326 44381https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/ApJS/149/365?format=asciiInfrareddefaultJ/ApJS/149/365/tablesList of filamentsDT340Average flux expressed as a temperature (1)mKphot.flux.density;em.IRfloatrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
