The ACS Virgo Cluster Survey. IV. Data Reduction Procedures for Surface Brightness Fluctuation Measurements with the Advanced Camera for Surveys [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2005 The Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) Virgo Cluster Survey is a large program to image 100 early-type Virgo galaxies using the F475W and F850LP bandpasses of the Wide Field Channel of the ACS instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). The scientific goals of this survey include an exploration of the three-dimensional structure of the Virgo Cluster

Coronagraphic Imaging of 3C 273 with the Advanced Camera for Surveys [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2003 The nearby and luminous QSO 3C 273 was imaged in 2002 July with the High Resolution Channel (HRC) of the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) in coronagraphic mode in F475W (g), F606W (V), and F814W (I) as part of the Early Release Observations (ERO) program.

An Automatic Image Reduction Pipeline for the Advanced Camera for Surveys
, 2002 We have written an automatic image processing pipeline for the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) Guaranteed Time Observation (GTO) program. The pipeline, known as Apsis, supports the different cameras available on the ACS instrument and is written in Python with a flexible object-oriented design that simplifies the incorporation of new pipeline modules.

THE ADVANCED CAMERA FOR SURVEYS GENERAL CATALOG: STRUCTURAL PARAMETERS FOR APPROXIMATELY HALF A MILLION GALAXIES [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2012 We present the Advanced Camera for Surveys General Catalog (ACS-GC), a photometric and morphological database using publicly available data obtained with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope. The goal of the ACS-GC database is to provide a large statistical sample of galaxies with reliable structural and ...

Slitless spectroscopy with the Advanced Camera for Surveys
, 2005 The Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) enables low resolution slitless spectroscopic imaging in the three channels. The most-used modes are grism imaging with the WFC and the HRC at a resolution of 40 and 24 A/pixel, respectively. In the far UV there are two prisms for the SBC and a prism for the HRC in the near-UV.

HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE/ADVANCED CAMERA FOR SURVEYS CONFIRMATION OF THE DARK SUBSTRUCTURE IN A520 [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2014 We present the results from a weak gravitational lensing study of the merging cluster A520 based on the analysis of Hubble Space Telescope/Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) data. The excellent data quality allows us to reach a mean number density of source galaxies of ~109 per sq.
