Description

This radio source catalog is the result of deep (16x12 hour) Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) observations of the approximately 7 square degree Bootes Deep Field, centered at an RA and Declination (J2000) of 14 hr 32 min 5.75 sec, +34 deg 16 arcmin 47.5 arcsec. The survey consisted of 42 discrete pointings, with enough overlap to ensure a uniform sensitivity across the entire field, and with a limiting sensitivity of 28 microJansky (1 sigma rms). The catalog consists of 3172 distinct sources detected with a significance of 5 sigma or greater, of which 316 are resolved by the 13 x 27 arcsec beam. This database table was created by the HEASARC in December 2001 based on the a data file obtained from the authors' FTP site (no longer available). It was modified slightly in March 2011 (using the CDS data file <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/AJ/123/1784/catalog.dat">https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/AJ/123/1784/catalog.dat</a>) to make the source names adhere to the naming convention of the Dictionary of Nomenclature of Celestial Objects. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
