Description
Deep radio observations of a wide region centered on the Hubble Deep Field-South (HDF-S) have been performed, providing one of the most sensitive sets of radio observations acquired on the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) to date. A central rms of ~ 10 microJy is reached at four frequencies (1.4, 2.5, 5.2, and 8.7 GHz). In this table, the combined 4-frequency AT-HDFS Catalog including fluxes and spectral indices for sources detected at 1.4, 2.5, 5.2, and/or 8.7 GHz observations is presented to complement the single-frequency radio data for the 1.4 GHz observations which were presented in Paper II (Huynh et al., 2005, AJ, 130, 1373, available at the HEASARC as the ATHDFS1P4G table) in this series, and for the 2.5, 5.2, and/or 8.7 GHz observations which were presented in the reference paper (Paper III, Huynh et al., 2007, AJ, 133, 1331, available at the HEASARC as the ATHDFS3FRQ table). The details of the observations and data reduction are discussed in detail in Paper I of this series (Norris et al., 2005, AJ, 130, 1358) and summarized in Table 1 of the reference paper. The radio observations were carried out by the ATCA over 4 years from 1998 to 2001. The observations at 1.4 and 2.5 GHz consist of single pointings centered on RA (J2000.0) = 22<sup>h</sup> 33<sup>m</sup> 25.96<sup>s</sup>, Dec (J2000.0) = -60<sup>o</sup> 38' 09.0". The observations at 5.2 and 8.7 GHz consist of single pointings centered on RA (J2000.0) = 22<sup>h</sup> 32<sup>m</sup> 56.22<sup>s</sup>, Dec (J2000.0) = -60<sup>o</sup> 33' 02.7". The 5.2 and 8.7 GHz observations are centered on the HST WFPC field, while the 1.4 and 2.5 GHz observations were pointed halfway between the WFPC field and a bright confusing source to allow the bright source to be well cleaned from the 1.4 and 2.5 GHz images. This HEASARC table contains the final consolidated catalog of 473 individual sources and gives the flux densities at all frequencies for each individual radio source. It contains the 466 1.4-GHz sources from Paper II together with 5 unmatched 2.5-GHz sources and 2 unmatched 8.7-GHz sources. The procedure that the authors used to construct this catalog is discussed in Section 6 of the reference paper. This table was created by the HEASARC in December 2012 based on the CDS Catalog J/AJ/130/1371 file table9.dat which contains the entire contents of Table 9 from the published paper.
