cds-question@unistra.frsurveysinfrared-photometryWe present the VISTA-CFHT Stripe 82 (VICS82) survey: a near-infrared (J+K_s_) survey covering 150 square degrees of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) equatorial Stripe 82 to an average depth of J=21.9 AB mag and K_s_=21.4 AB mag (80% completeness limits; 5{sigma} point-source depths are approximately 0.5mag brighter). VICS82 contributes to the growing legacy of multiwavelength data in the Stripe 82 footprint. The addition of near-infrared photometry to the existing SDSS Stripe 82 coadd ugriz photometry reduces the scatter in stellar mass estimates to {delta}log(M_*_)~0.3dex for galaxies with M_*_>10^9^M_{sun}_ at z~0.5, and offers improvement compared to optical-only estimates out to z~1, with stellar masses constrained within a factor of approximately 2.5. When combined with other multiwavelength imaging of the Stripe, including moderate-to-deep ultraviolet (GALEX), optical and mid-infrared (Spitzer-IRAC) coverage, as well as tens of thousands of spectroscopic redshifts, VICS82 gives access to approximately 0.5Gpc^3^ of comoving volume. Some of the main science drivers of VICS82 include (a) measuring the stellar mass function of L^*^ galaxies out to z~1; (b) detecting intermediate-redshift quasars at 2<~z<~3.5; (c) measuring the stellar mass function and baryon census of clusters of galaxies, and (d) performing cross-correlation experiments of cosmic microwave background lensing in the optical/near-infrared that link stellar mass to large-scale dark matter structure. Here we define and describe the survey, highlight some early science results, and present the first public data release, which includes an SDSS-matched catalog as well as the calibrated pixel data themselves.2017ApJS..231....7Ghttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJS/231/7CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toVII/250 : The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) (2dFGRS Team, 1998-2003)II/261 : GOODS initial results (Giavalisco+, 2004)III/250 : The VIMOS VLT deep survey (VVDS-DEEP) (Le Fevre+ 2005)VII/233 : The 2MASS Extended sources (IPAC/UMass, 2003-2006)V/141 : Light-Motion Curve Catalogue (LMCC) in Stripe 82 (Bramich+ 2008)II/319 : UKIDSS-DR9 LAS, GCS and DXS Surveys (Lawrence+ 2012)II/373 : The fourth UltraVISTA data release (DR4) (Moneti+, 2019)III/334 : VISTA Deep Extragalactic Observations (VIDEO) (Jarvis+, 2013)J/MNRAS/401/1429 : WiggleZ dark energy survey (DR1) (Drinkwater+, 2010)J/AJ/141/105 : NIR-matched quasar catalog (Peth+, 2011)J/MNRAS/413/3059 : 4098 galaxy clusters in SDSS Stripe 82 (Geach+, 2011)J/AJ/142/3 : 1.4GHz observations of Stripe 82 (Hodge+, 2011)J/ApJS/199/3 : The quasars MMT-BOSS pilot survey (Ross+, 2012)J/A+A/544/A156 : UltraVISTA Catalogue Release DR1 (McCracken+, 2012)J/ApJ/768/105 : z~5 QSO LF from SDSS Stripe 82 (McGreer+, 2013)J/ApJS/210/22 : Herschel Stripe 82 survey (HerS) first catalog (Viero+, 2014)J/ApJ/794/120 : Sloan Digital Sky Survey coadd.
