- Survey at 408 MHz and 1420 MHz towards A 1314

- Description:
- The cluster of galaxies Abell 1314 has been observed with the Penticton synthesis telescope simultaneously at 408 MHz (73.5 cm wavelength) with a sensitivity (7 rms) near 70 mJy and at 1420 MHz (21.1 cm wavelength) with a sensitivity (5 rms) near 4.3 mJy. In addition to the 3 cluster sources detected, a further 64 background radio sources have been detected at 1420 MHz (the 20P radio survey), and 169 background sources at 408 MHz (the 21P radio survey). The surveys extend to a radius of 3.7 degrees at 408 MHz, and to 1.0 degree at 1420 MHz, from the map center at RA=11h31.5m, Dec=+49d20'. The differential source count for the background radio sources, derived at 408 MHz in the flux density range 90 mJy to 3.0 Jy, shows consistency with the Cambridge 5C5 survey at 408 MHz in a direction away from clusters of galaxies. Also, the differential count derived at 1420 MHz in the flux density range 10 mJy to 330 mJy is consistent with the Westerbork LBDS survey at a nearby frequency away from clusters of galaxies. We find no candidate for very steep spectrum "relic" sources in this cluster of galaxies, nor for very flat spectrum "blue" background radio galaxies behind the cluster.

- Survey of Galactic Center region at 20cm
- Short Name:
- J/ApJS/155/421
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- This is the first in a series of papers presenting a sensitive 20cm VLA continuum survey of the Galactic center region using new and archival data based on multiconfiguration observations taken with relatively uniform uv coverage. The high dynamic range images cover the regions within -2{deg}<l<5{deg} and -40'<b<40' with a spatial resolution of ~30" and 10". The wide field imaging technique is used to construct a low-resolution mosaic of 40 overlapping pointings. The mosaic image includes the Effelsberg observations filling the low spatial frequency uv data. We also present high-resolution images of 23 overlapping fields using DnC and CnB array configurations. These high-resolution images are sensitive to both compact and extended continuum features with a wide range of angular scales with rms noise of 0.2mJy/beam in the outer parts of the Galactic center region. The survey has resulted in a catalog of 345 discrete sources as well as 140 images revealing structural details of HII regions, supernova remnants, pulsar wind nebulae, and more than 80 linear filaments distributed toward the complex region of the Galactic center.

- Survey of infall motions toward starless cores
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/526/788
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present the first results of a survey of 220 starless cores selected primarily by their optical obscuration and observed in CS (2-1), N_2_H^+^ (1-0), and C^18^O (1-0) using the Northeast Radio Observatory Corporation (NEROC) Haystack 37 m telescope. We have detected 163 out of 196 sources observed in CS, 72 out of 142 in N_2_H^+^, and 30 out of 30 in C18O. In total, 69 sources were detected in both CS and N_2_H^+^. The isolated component of the N_2_H^+^ (1-0) spectrum (F_1_F = 0,1-1,2) usually shows a weak symmetric profile that is optically thin. In contrast, a significant fraction of the CS spectra show non-Gaussian shapes, which we interpret as arising from a combination of self-absorption due to lower excitation gas in the core front and kinematics in the core. The distribution of the normalized velocity difference ({delta}V_CS_) between the CS and N_2_H^+^ peaks appears significantly skewed to the blue (V_CS_ < 0), as was found in a similar study of dense cores with embedded young stellar objects (YSOs). The incidence of sources with blue asymmetry tends to increase as the total optical depth or the integrated intensity of the N_2_H^+^ line increases.

- Survey of SiO maser emission in oxygen-rich stars
- Short Name:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Circumstellar environments of oxygen-rich stars are among the strongest SiO maser emitters. Physical processes such as collisions, infrared pumping, and overlaps favor the inversion of level population and produce maser emission at different vibrational states. Despite numerous observational and theoretical efforts, we still do not have a unified picture including all of the physical processes involved in SiO maser emission. The aim of this work is to provide homogeneous data in a large sample of oxygen-rich stars. We present a survey of 67 oxygen-rich stars from 7 to 1mm, in their rotational transitions from J=1-0 to J=5-4, for vibrational numbers v from 0 to 6 in the three main SiO isotopologs. We have used one of the 34 m NASA antennas at Robledo and the IRAM 30m radio telescope. The first tentative detection of a v=6 line is reported, as well as the detection of new maser lines. The highest vibrational levels seem confined to small volumes, presumably close to the stars. The J=1-0, v=2 line flux is greater than the corresponding v=1 in almost half of the sample, which may confirm a predicted dependence on the pulsation cycle. This database is potentially useful in models which should consider most of the physical agents, time dependency, and mass-loss rates. As a by-product, we report detections of 27 thermal rotational lines from other molecules, including isotopologs of SiS, H_2_S, SO, SO_2_, and NaCl.

- Description:
- A survey of the galactic plane was made with the Effelsberg 100-m telescope at a frequency of 4.875 GHz with a beamwidth of 2.6 arcmin. Table 1 is a list of 1186 radio sources in the surveyed area l = 357.5 to 60 deg, b = -1 to +1 deg. The primary calibration source was NGC 7027, which was assumed to have a flux density of 5.9 Jy (1 Jy = 10^-26^W.m-2.Hz-1). The uncertainty in day-to-day thermal calibration was +/- 5 to 10%.

- Swift X-ray observations of 1FGL sources
- Short Name:
- J/ApJS/208/25
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have analyzed all the archival X-ray data of 134 unidentified (unID) gamma-ray sources listed in the first Fermi/LAT (1FGL) catalog and subsequently followed up by the Swift/XRT. We constructed the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) from radio to gamma-rays for each X-ray source detected, and tried to pick up unique objects that display anomalous spectral signatures. In these analyses, we target all the 1FGL unID sources, using updated data from the second Fermi/LAT (2FGL) catalog on the Large Area Telescope (LAT) position and spectra. We found several potentially interesting objects, particularly three sources, 1FGL J0022.2-1850, 1FGL J0038.0+1236, and 1FGL J0157.0-5259, which were then more deeply observed with Suzaku as a part of an AO-7 program in 2012. We successfully detected an X-ray counterpart for each source whose X-ray spectra were well fitted by a single power-law function. The positional coincidence with a bright radio counterpart (currently identified as an active galactic nucleus, AGN) in the 2FGL error circles suggests these sources are definitely the X-ray emission from the same AGN, but their SEDs show a wide variety of behavior. In particular, the SED of 1FGL J0038.0+1236 is not easily explained by conventional emission models of blazars. The source 1FGL J0022.2-1850 may be in a transition state between a low-frequency peaked and a high-frequency peaked BL Lac object, and 1FGL J0157.0-5259 could be a rare kind of extreme blazar.

- SXDF 100{mu}Jy catalogue
- Short Name:

- Description:
- We describe deep radio imaging at 1.4GHz of the 1.3-deg^2^ Subaru/XMM-Newton Deep Field (SXDF), made with the Very Large Array in B and C configurations. We present a radio map of the entire field, and a catalogue of 505 sources covering 0.8deg^2^ to a peak flux density limit of 100uJy. Robust optical identifications are provided for 90 per cent of the sources, and suggested identifications are presented for all but 14 (of which seven are optically blank, and seven are close to bright contaminating objects). We show that the optical properties of the radio sources do not change with flux density, suggesting that active galactic nuclei (AGN) continue to contribute significantly at faint flux densities. We test this assertion by cross-correlating our radio catalogue with the X-ray source catalogue and conclude that radio-quiet AGN become a significant population at flux densities below 300uJy, and may dominate the population responsible for the flattening of the radio source counts if a significant fraction of them are Compton-thick.

- CDS
- Description:
- The Sydney University Molonglo Sky Survey (SUMSS) is being carried out at 843MHz with the Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Telescope (MOST) in its upgraded wide-field capability. The survey consists of 4.3x4.3{deg} mosaic images with 45x45''cosec{delta} resolution, covering 8000 square degrees from -30 degrees declination southwards. The survey resolution and sensitivity (1-sigma noise limit 1mJy) are well-matched to the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) so that together NVSS and SUMSS will provide a complete survey of the radio sky. The version 1.7 (01-Jun-2006) of the catalogue consists of 205676 radio sources made by fitting elliptical gaussians in 671 SUMSS mosaics to a limiting peak brightness of 6mJy/beam at declination <-50{deg}, and 10mJy/beam at declination >-50{deg}. Positional accuracies are 1-2'' for sources with S_p_>=20mJy/beam, and are always better than 10''. The internal flux density scale is accurate to 3%. Image artefacts have been classified using a decision tree, which correctly identifies and rejects spurious sources in over 96% of cases. See the SUMSS site at http://www.astrop.physics.usyd.edu.au/sumsscat/ for details about all versions of the SUMSS, and an access to the mosaic images.

- CDS
- Description:
- We have collected the most complete multi-wavelength (6.0-6.0E^-18^cm) dataset of very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray emitting (TeV) BL Lacs, which are the most numerous extragalactic VHE sources. Using significant correlations between different bands, we aim to identify the best TeV BL Lac candidates that can be discovered by the current and next generation of imaging air Cherenkovtelescopes. We formed five datasets from lower energy data, i.e. radio, mid-infrared, optical, X-rays, and GeV gamma-ray, and five VHE gamma-ray datasets to perform a correlation study between different bands and to construct the prediction method. The low energy datasets were averaged for individual sources, while the VHE gamma-ray data were divided into subsets according to the flux state of the source. We then looked for significant correlations and determined their best-fit parameters. Using the best-fit parameters we predicted the level of VHE gamma-ray flux for a sample of 182 BL Lacs, which have not been detected at TeV energies. We identified the most promising TeV BL Lac candidates based on the predicted VHE gamma-ray flux for each source. We found 14 significant correlations between radio, mid-infrared, optical, gamma-ray, and VHE gamma-ray bands. The correlation between optical and VHE gamma-ray luminosity is established for the first time. We attribute this to the more complete sample and more accurate handling of host galaxy flux in our work. We found nine BL Lac candidates whose predicted VHE gamma-ray flux is high enough for detection in less than 25 hours with current imaging air Cherenkov telescopes.
