Catalog Service: A 5-GHz VLA Survey of the Galactic Plane
Description
We have used the VLA to survey the inner Galaxy (|b|<0.4{deg}, l=350-40{deg}) at 5GHz to a limiting sensitivity of between 2.5 and 10mJy. The survey has resulted in a catalog of 1272 discrete sources (including 100 sources outside the formal survey area) of which we have tentatively identified ~450 as ultracompact H II regions and ~45 as planetary nebulae. Approximately 30% of the radio sources are detected in the IRAS Point Source Catalog. The results confirm a scale height of only 30pc for ultracompact H II regions. We show that source lists generated from the IRAS Point Source Catalog alone suffer serious effects; the combination of the IRAS and radio surveys allows us to produce a much more complete census of the regions of massive star formation in our Galaxy.

This is service that does not comply with any IVOA standard but instead provides access to special capabilities specific to this resource.
This is a standard IVOA service that takes as input an ADQL or PQL query and returns tabular data.
This is a standard IVOA service that takes as input a position in the sky and a radius and returns catalog records with positions within that radius.
