The 2.4 $μ$ m Galaxy Luminosity Function as Measured Using WISE. II. Sample Selection

S. E. Lake, E. L. Wright, R. J. Assef +5

The WISE satellite surveyed the entire sky multiple times in four infrared (IR) wavelengths ( $3.4, 4.6, 12,$ and $22 μ$ m, Wright et al. 2010). This all-sky IR photometric surve…
