Abstract

This article presents new astronomical source catalogs using data from the BUFFALO Survey. These catalogs contain detailed information for over 100,000 astronomical sources in the six BUFFALO clusters: A370, A2744, AS1063, MACS 0416, MACS 0717, and MACS 1149 spanning a total of 240 arcmin2. The catalogs include positions and forced photometry measurements of these objects in the F275W, F336W, F435W, F606W, F814W, F105W, F125W, F140W, and F160W HST bands, Keck-NIRC2/VLT-HAWKI Ks band, and IRAC Channel 1 and 2 bands. Additionally, we include photometry measurements in the F475W, F625W, and F110W bands for A370. This catalog also includes photometric redshift estimates computed via template fitting using LePhare. When comparing to a spectroscopic reference, we obtain an outlier fraction of 8.6% and scatter, normalized median absolute deviation, of 0.059. The catalogs are publicly available for their use by the community (https://archive.stsci.edu/hlsp/buffalo/).
