THE EMISSION BY DUST AND STARS OF NEARBY GALAXIES IN THE HERSCHEL KINGFISH SURVEY (2011, methodology): “We obtained 2MASS fluxes from Jarrett et al. (2003), using the calibration in Cohen et al. (2003).”
A Test of the Cosmological Principle with Quasars (2020, methodology): “We remove these by masking out 6 times the 20 mag arcsec−2 isophotal radii from the 2MASS Large Galaxy Atlas (LGA; Jarrett et al. 2003).”
The Murmur of the Sleeping Black Hole: Detection of Nuclear Ultraviolet Variability in LINER Galaxies (2005, methodology): “…to better than 100 between the 15GHz radio core position, the radio core position reported by the VLAFIRST survey (Becker et al. 1995), the optical position we measure from digitized POSS plates, and the near-IR nuclear position from the TwoMicron All Sky Survey survey (Jarrett et al. 2003).”
Nobeyama CO Atlas of Nearby Spiral Galaxies: Distribution of Molecular Gas in Barred and Nonbarred Spiral Galaxies (2007, methodology): “We used RK20 from the 2MASS Large Galaxy Atlas (Jarrett et al. 2003).”
The Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) (2006, methodology): “Although not a primary objective of 2MASS, high-quality infrared fluxes and spatial parameters for galaxies larger than 12000 in size have been reconstructed and delivered in the 2MASS Large Galaxy Atlas (Jarrett et al. 2003), which is included in the Extended Source Catalog.”
The Star-forming Torus and Stellar Dynamical Black Hole Mass in the Seyfert 1 Nucleus of NGC 3227 (2006, methodology): “…this we have used H-band data – which trace the stellar light with less bias to recent star formation than optical data – from both the 2MASS large galaxy atlas (Jarrett et al. 2003) on scales of 2–100′′, and the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) archive on scales of 0.2–10′′ (proposal 7172, Rieke).”
HIGH-RESOLUTION ROTATION CURVES AND GALAXY MASS MODELS FROM THINGS (2008, methodology): “All of our sample galaxies are included in the 2MASS Large Galaxy Atlas (Jarrett et al. 2003), and we use the J − K colors given there, together with the relations between color and ϒ given in Bell & de Jong (2001), as well as the relation between ϒK∗ and ϒ3.”
On Extending the Mass-Metallicity Relation of Galaxies by 2.5 Decades in Stellar Mass (2006, methodology): “The mean B ½4:5 color for our sample in Table 1 is 2:08 0:59, which is consistent with the range of observed B K colors for a sample of nearby late-type dwarf galaxies in Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS; Jarrett et al. 2003).”
Secular Evolution and the Formation of Pseudobulges in Disk Galaxies (2004, background): “There are signs of a weak bar in the infrared (see the above references and Jarrett et al. 2003).”
THE NGC 404 NUCLEUS: STAR CLUSTER AND POSSIBLE INTERMEDIATE-MASS BLACK HOLE (2010, methodology): “We used archival HST data, our NIFS K-band image, and the 2MASS Large Galaxy Atlas (Jarrett et al. 2003) to construct the two surface brightness profiles shown in Fig.”
The Supernova rate per unit mass (2004, methodology): “Among the possible choices of photometric measurements in the 2MASS catalog, we used the total photometry obtained by extrapolating the fit of a Sersic function to the galaxy radial profile (k m ext in the 2MASS nomenclature, see Jarrett et al., 2003, for details).”
Probing the dust properties of galaxies up to submillimetre wavelengths. II. Dust-to-gas mass ratio trends with metallicity and the submm excess in dwarf galaxies (2011, methodology): “2MASS flux densities are taken from the 2MASS Large Galaxy Atlas (Jarrett et al. 2003), Galametz et al. (2009) and Dale et al. (2007).”
Infrared Spectral Energy Distributions of Nearby Galaxies (2005, methodology): “The Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) near-infrared fluxes used in this study are the total fluxes listed in the NASA/ IPAC Extragalactic Database and are obtained by extrapolating the near-infrared surface brightness profiles out to about 5 disk scale lengths (see Jarrett et al. 2003).”
