Description
This table contains a source catalog based on observations of the European Large-Area ISO Survey-North 1 (ELAIS-N1) field taken at 610 MHz with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope. Nineteen pointings were observed, covering a total area of ~ 9 square degrees with a resolution of 6 x 5 arcsec<sup>2</sup>, position angle of +45 degrees. Four of the pointings were deep observations with an rms of ~ 40 microJansky (µJy) before primary beam correction, with the remaining fifteen pointings having an rms of ~ 70 uJy. The techniques used for data reduction and production of a mosaicked image of the region are described in the reference paper, where the final mosaic, along with a catalog of 2500 sources detected above a 6-sigma threshold, are presented. This work complements the large amount of optical and infrared data already available on the region. In their paper, the authors calculate 610-MHz source counts down to 270 uJy, and find further evidence for the turnover in differential number counts below 1 mJy, previously seen at both 610 MHz and 1.4 GHz. For further details of the surveys and data analysis procedures, please refer to the published paper. This table contains the ELAIS-N1 catalog of 2500 detected 610-MHz radio sources. This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2012 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/383/75">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/383/75</a> file catalog.dat.
