Description
The Multi-Array Galactic Plane Imaging Survey (MAGPIS) maps portions of the first Galactic quadrant with an angular resolution, sensitivity, and dynamic range that surpass existing radio images of the Milky Way by more than an order of magnitude. The source detection threshold at 20 cm is in the range 1-2 mJy over the 85% of the survey region (Galactic longitudes from 5 to 32 degrees and Galactic latitudes within 0.8 degrees of the Galactic plane) not covered by bright extended emission; the angular resolution is ~6". Over 3000 discrete sources (diameters mostly <30") and ~400 diffuse emission regions are catalogued. Additional information and data products, including full-resolution 20 cm images, complementary 90 cm images, regridded MSX 21 micron images, an image atlas of diffuse emission regions are available at the MAGPIS web site <a href="http://third.ucllnl.org/gps">http://third.ucllnl.org/gps</a> This table was created by the HEASARC in June 2006 based on machine-readable versions of Tables 2 and 3 of the above reference which were obtained from the electronic Astronomical Journal web site. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
