We use the U-bandimages obtained with the VIsible Multi-Object Spectrograph on the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope by Nonino et al. Our best resolution mosaic includes images with a seeing full-width half maximum (FWHM) ≤ 0"8, and encompasses 50% of the data. Our best depth mosaic includes images with FWHM ≤ 1"5, corresponding to 100% of the data. Prior to being combined, the source fluxes in each individual background-subtracted image are corrected to match a 3D-HST photometric catalog of the same field to correct variations in the U-band zero-points. These mosaics provide deep U-banddata complementary to the UVCANDELS HST WFC3 F275W and ACS F435W images. We assess the depth of both U-bandmosaics. * Based on data acquired using the Very Large Telescope (VLT) of the European Southern Observatory (ESO).ELETTRONICOenArticle10.3847/2515-5172/ac1db6https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/2515-5172/ac1db62021RNAAS...5..190OFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICAERC sectors::Physical Sciences and Engineering::PE9 Universe sciences: astro-physics/chemistry/biology; solar systems; stellar, galactic and extragalactic astronomy, planetary systems, cosmology, space science, instrumentation::PE9_8 Formation and evolution of galaxies
