Description
The radio continuum emission of the spiral galaxy M31 has been mapped at a wavelength of 21cm with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope, at an angular resolution of 23"x35", corresponding to a linear resolution of 70x115pc. Five fields have been observed which, when combined, cover the main part of the disk of M31. A catalogue of sources inside the M31 area with a flux density larger than 1mJy (five times the rms noise) is presented.
