ISOCAM CVF spectrometer 2.2-16.5{mu}m spectra

The 364 spectra have been classified according to the classification system of Kraemer et al. (2002ApJS..140..389K), as modified by Hodge et al. (2004, Cat. <J/ApJS/151/299>) to account for the shorter wavelength range. Prior to classification, the spectra were processed and recalibrated to create a uniform database.

Aperture photometry was performed at each wavelength centered on the brightest position in each image field and the various spectral segments merged into a single spectrum. The aperture was the same for all scale sizes of the images. Since this procedure differs fundamentally from that used in the initial ISOCAM calibration, a recalibration of the spectral response of the instrument was required for the aperture photometry.
