Abstract

We present a detailed reduction of a mid-infrared 12 µ m( LW10 filter) ISOCAM open time observation performed on the ESOSculptor Survey field (Arnouts et al. 1997, AA these methods yield consistent results. We also apply an empirical flux density calibration using stars in the field. For each star, the 12 µm flux density is derived by fitting optical colours from a multi-band χ 2 to stellar templates (BaSel-2.0) and using empirical optical-IR colour-colour relations. This article is a companion analysis to our 2007 paper (Rocca-Volmerange et al. 2007, A&A, 475, 801) where the 12 µm faint galaxy counts are presented and analysed per galaxy type with the evolutionary code PEGASE.3.
