对高星系纬度场的深、多波段观测是研究从星系结构到河外背景辐射等主题的重要工具。1995年12月获得的哈勃深空（HDF-N）观测为这种狭窄的深空调查建立了一个标准。该领域已被各种小组广泛分析，并在10-3至2 × 105 μm波长范围内进行了广泛的成像和光谱学研究。我们在这里描述第二次深空运动（HDF-S），这一次是在南半球，由哈勃太空望远镜（HST）于1998年10月进行的，其计划与哈勃北部深空非常相似。同时获得了150个轨道的南部连续观测区3个相邻场的成像和光谱，并对另外27个轨道的侧翼场进行了马赛克成像。HDF-S与HDF-N有两个重要的区别：该活动包括三个主要HST仪器（wfpc2， STIS和nicmos）的平行观测，并且HDF-S的位置被选择为在STIS视场中放置明亮的z = 2.24类星体。HDF-S观测包括靠近U， B， V和I滤光片的WFPC2图像，类星体周围场的深STIS图像，类星体在1150至3560 Å的STIS光谱，以及NICMOS相机3在1.1,1.6和2.2 μm处对邻近场的深成像。所有HDF-S数据都在观测后的2个月内被完全简化并公开，我们在这里描述了野外的选择和所采用的观测策略。每个领域的数据和还原技术的详细描述以及相应的源目录出现在单独的论文中。
Deep, multiband observations of high Galactic latitude fields are an essential tool for studying topics ranging from Galactic structure to extragalactic background radiation. The Hubble Deep Field (HDF-N) observations obtained in 1995 December established a standard for such narrow, deep surveys. The field has been extensively analyzed by a variety of groups and has been widely studied with imaging and spectroscopy over wavelengths ranging from 10-3 to 2 × 105 μm. We describe here a second deep field campaign (HDF-S), this time in the southern hemisphere, undertaken by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) in 1998 October in a program very similar to the northern Hubble Deep Field. Imaging and spectroscopy of three adjacent fields in the southern continuous viewing zone were obtained simultaneously for 150 orbits, and a mosaic of flanking fields was imaged for 27 additional orbits. Two important features of the HDF-S distinguish it from the HDF-N: the campaign included parallel observations by the three main HST instruments—WFPC2, STIS, and NICMOS—and the HDF-S location was selected to place a bright z = 2.24 quasar in the STIS field of view. The HDF-S observations consist of WFPC2 images in filters close to U, B, V, and I, a deep STIS image of the field surrounding the quasar, spectroscopy of the quasar with STIS from 1150 to 3560 Å, and deep imaging of an adjacent field with NICMOS camera 3 at 1.1, 1.6, and 2.2 μm. All of the HDF-S data were fully reduced and made publicly available within 2 months of the observations, and we describe here the selection of the fields and the observing strategy that was employed. Detailed descriptions of the data and the reduction techniques for each field, together with the corresponding source catalogs, appear in separate papers.
