The IRSF Magellanic Clouds Point Source Catalog

We present a near-infrared ( $JHK_{\rm s}$ ) photometric catalog, including 14811185 point sources for a 40 deg $^2$ area of the Large Magellanic Cloud, 2769682 sources for an 11 deg $^2$ area of the Small Magellanic Cloud, and 434145 sources for a 4 deg $^2$ area of the Magellanic Bridge. The 10 $\sigma$ limiting magnitudes are 18.8, 17.8, and 16.6 mag at $J, H$ , and $K_{\rm s}$ , respectively. The photometric and astrometric accuracies for bright sources are 0.03–0.04 mag and 0 $\rlap {.}{^{\prime\prime}}$ 1, respectively. Based on the catalog, we also present (1) spatial distributions, (2) luminosity functions, (3) color–color diagrams, and (4) color–magnitude diagrams for point sources toward the Magellanic Clouds.
