- Description:
- The results of a deep radio survey at a wavelength of 20 cm are reported for a region containing the AKARI Deep Field South (ADF-S) near the South Ecliptic Pole (SEP), using the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). The survey (hereafter referred to as the ATCA-ADFS survey) has 1-sigma detection limits ranging from 18.7 to 50 microJansky per beam (µJy/beam, over an area of ~1.1 deg<sup>2</sup>, and ~2.5 deg<sup>2</sup> to lower sensitivity. The observations, data reduction and source count analysis are presented in the paper, along with a description of the overall scientific objectives, and a catalog containing 530 radio sources detected with a resolution of 6.2 x 4.9 arcseconds (contained herein). The AKARI Deep Field South survey was primarily made in the far-infrared at wavelengths of 65, 90, 140, 160 micron (µm) over a 12 deg<sup>2</sup> area with the AKARI Far-Infrared Surveyor (FIS) instrument, with shallower mid-infrared coverage at 9 and 18 um using the AKARI Infrared Camera (IRC) instrument. In addition to the wide survey, deeper mid-infrared pointed observations, using the IRC, covering ~0.8 deg<sup>2</sup> and reaching 5-sigma sensitivities of 16, 16, 74, 132, 280 and 580 uJy at 3.2, 4.6, 7, 11, 15 and 24 um, respectively, were also carried out. The radio observations were collected over a 13 day period in 2007 July using the ATCA operated at 1.344 and 1.432 GHz. The total integration time for the 2007 observations was 120 hours. The 2007 data were augmented with a further deep observation made in 2008 December over five nights towards a single pointing position at the ADF-S, which lay just off center of the larger ATCA-ADFS field reported here. This added a further 50 h of integration time. The data were processed in exactly the same way as that from the 2007 observing sessions. Note that in the terminology of the authors, a radio component is described as a region of radio emission represented by a Gaussian shaped object in the map. Close radio doubles are represented by two Gaussians and are deemed to consist of two components, which make up a single source. A selection of radio sources with multiple components is shown in Fig. 3 of the reference paper.

- Description:
- The Australia Telescope ESO Slice Project (ATESP) survey is a radio survey which was accomplished with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) at 1.4 GHz over the region covered by the ESO Slice Project (ESP: Vettolani et al. 1997, A&A, 325, 954) galaxy redshift survey. This 26-degree<sup>2</sup> region is centered at Declination -40 degrees, and ranges in RA from 22<sup>h</sup> 30<sup>m</sup> to 01<sup>h</sup> 15<sup>m</sup>. The ATESP survey consisted of 16 radio mosaics with 8 x 14 arcseconds resolution and uniform sensitivity (1 sigma noise level of ~ 79 microJansky) over the whole area of the ESP redshift survey. According to the reference paper, the final 6-sigma ATESP catalog contained 2960 sources down to a detection limit of ~ 0.5 mJy (6 sigma), 1402 of which are sub-mJy sources, and 189 of which are multiple sources (168 doubles, 19 triples and 2 quadruples). This table contains the list of 6-sigma or more sources detected in the ATESP survey. For composite sources with multiple components, the individual components each have entries in this table, and there is also an entry for the entire source. Based on the numbers quoted above, this would imply that there should be (2960 + 2*168 + 3*19 + 4*2) = 3361 entries in this table. The HEASARC notes that there are actually 3370 entries in the CDS version of this table that the present table is based on, 169 of which are doubles, 19 triples and 2 quadruples, implying that this version has 2967 sources, slightly more than the number quoted in the reference paper.

- Description:
- The authors report results of the first phase of observations with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) at 5 and 9 GHz of the fields around 411 gamma-ray sources having declinations less than +10 degrees which were detected by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, but marked as unassociated in the 2nd Fermi Large-Area Telescope (2FGL) Catalog (available at the HEASARC as the FERMILPSC table). They have detected 424 radio sources with flux densities in the range from 2 mJy to 6 Jy in the fields of 283 gamma-ray sources within their gamma-ray position error ellipses (drawn to cover the area of 99 per cent probability of their localization). Of these, 146 objects were detected in both 5- and 9-GHz bands. The authors found 84 sources with spectral indices flatter than -0.5 in their sample. The majority of detected sources are weaker than 100 mJy and for this reason were not found in previous surveys. Approximately 1/3 of this sample, 128 objects, have the probability of being associated which is more than 10 times the probability of their being a background source found in the vicinity of the gamma-ray object by chance. This table contains the catalog of positions of these radio sources, estimates of their flux densities and their spectral indices, when available. This table was created by the HEASARC in July 2013 based on the electronic versions of Tables 1, 2 and 3 from the reference paper which were obtained from the MNRAS web site.

- Australia Telescope 20-GHz (AT20G) High-Angular Resolution Catalog
- Short Name:
- AT20GHARC
- Date:

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This table contains the high-angular-resolution catalog for the Australia Telescope 20-GHz (AT20G) survey, using the high-angular-resolution 6-km antenna data at the baselines of ~4500 m of the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). The authors have used the data to produce the visibility catalog that separates the compact active galactic nuclei (AGNs) from the extended radio sources at the 0.15-arcsecond angular scale, corresponding to the linear size scale of 1 kpc at redshifts higher than 0.7. They find the radio population at 20 GHz to be dominated by compact AGNs constituting 77% of the total sources in the AT20G. In the paper, they introduce the visibility-spectra diagnostic plot, produced using the AT20G cross-matches with lower frequency radio surveys at 1 GHz [the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS: Condon et al. 1998, AJ, 115, 1693) and the Sydney University Molonglo Sky Survey (SUMSS: Mauch et al. 2003, MNRAS, 342, 1117)], that separates the 20-GHz population into distinct sub-populations of the compact AGNs, the compact steep-spectrum (CSS) sources, the extended AGN-powered sources and extended flat-spectrum sources. The extended flat-spectrum sources include a local thermal emitting population of high-latitude planetary nebulae and also gravitational lens and binary black hole candidates among the AGNs. The authors find a smooth transition in properties between the CSS sources and the AGN populations. The visibility catalog, together with the main AT20G survey, provides an estimate of angular size scales for sources in the AT20G and an estimate of the flux arising from central cores of extended radio sources. The identification of the compact AGNs in the AT20G survey provides high-quality calibrators for high-frequency radio telescope arrays and very large baseline interferometry observations. This table was created by the HEASARC in December 2013 based on machine-readable versions of Tables 2 and 3 from the reference paper which were obtained from the MNRAS web site.

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The Australia Telescope 20-GHz Survey (AT20G) is a blind radio survey carried out at 20 GHz with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) from 2004 to 2008, and covers the whole sky south of declination 0 degrees. The AT20G source catalogue presented here is an order of magnitude larger than any previous catalogue of high-frequency radio sources, and includes 5890 sources above a 20-GHz flux-density limit of 40 mJy. All AT20G sources have total intensity and polarisation measured at 20 GHz, and most sources south of declination -15 degrees also have near-simultaneous flux-density measurements at 5 and 8 GHz. A total of 1559 sources were detected in polarised total intensity at one or more of the three frequencies. The completeness of the AT20G source catalog is 91% above 100 mJy/beam and 79% above 50 mJy/beam in regions south of Declination -15 degrees. North of -15 degrees, some observations of sources between 14 and 20 hours in RA were lost due to bad weather and could not be repeated, so the catalog completeness is lower in this region. Each detected source was visually inspected as part of the authors' quality control processs, and so the reliability of the final catalog is essentially 100%.

- Description:
- The Australia Telescope 20-GHz (AT20G) Survey is a blind survey of the whole southern sky at 20 GHz (with follow-up observations at 4.8 and 8.6 GHz) carried out with the Australia Telescope Compact Array from 2004 to 2007. The Bright Source Sample (BSS) is a complete flux-limited sub-sample of the AT20G Survey catalog comprising 320 extragalactic (|b| > 1.5 degrees) radio sources south of declination -15 degrees with 20-GHz flux densities S<sub>20GHz</sub> > 0.50 Jy (500 mJy). Of these sources, 218 have near simultaneous observations at 8 and 5 GHz. In the reference paper, the authors present an analysis of the radio spectral properties in total intensity and polarization, size, optical identifications and redshift distribution of the BSS sources. Optical identifications provided an estimation of redshift for 186 sources with median values of 1.20 and 0.13 for QSOs and galaxies, respectively.

- Australia Telescope Hubble Deep Field-South 2.5, 5.2 and 8.7-GHz Source Catalog
- Short Name:
- ATHDFS3FRQ
- Date:
- 14 Feb 2025
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- 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 µJy is reached at four frequencies (1.4, 2.5, 5.2, and 8.7 GHz). In this table, the full source catalogs from the 2.5, 5.2, and 8.7 GHz observations are presented to complement the 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, along with a detailed analysis of image quality and noise. The authors also have produced a consolidated catalog of all of their ATCA observations of the HDF-S by matching sources across all four of the frequencies in their survey (available at the HEASARC as the ATHDFSCCAT 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 observations 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" (2.5 GHz), and 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" (5.2 and 8.7 GHz). The 5.2 and 8.7 GHz observations are centered on the HST WFPC field, while the 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 2.5 GHz image. At 5 sigma, the 5.2 and 8.7 GHz catalogs have over 96% reliability. At 2.5 GHz, the authors have enough statistics to examine the 5 - 5.5 sigma sources, and find that these are only about 40% reliable. With a SNR greater than 5.5 sigma, the 2.5 GHz catalog would have about 99% reliability. The authors thus cut off the catalogs at 5.5, 5, and 5 sigma for 2.5, 5.2, and 8.7 GHz, respectively. The final catalogs have 71, 24, and 6 sources at 2.5, 5.2, and 8.7 GHz, respectively. Given a prior 1.4 GHz position, it may be feasible to push the detection limit lower than 5 sigma. The authors searched for low-SNR sources by matching 3 - 5 sigma sources that lie within 2 sigma positional uncertainty of a 1.4 GHz source. The positional uncertainty was determined by adding the average 1.4 GHz uncertainty (1.1") in quadrature with the positional uncertainty of a 3 sigma source. At 2.5 GHz the allowed positional offset is 3.8", and for 5.2 and 8.7 GHz it is 2.8". Thus, there are 71, 18, and 2 sources at 2.5, 5.2, and 8.7 GHz, respectively, which are low-SNR high-frequency counterparts to 1.4 GHz sources. The authors included these sources in supplementary catalogs. This HEASARC table contains all 101 primary sources detected at 2.5, 5.2, and 8.7 GHz, as well as the 91 supplementary sources described above (the latter are flagged by having source_flag values of 'S'), for a grand total of 192 radio sources.

- 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 µJy 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 <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/AJ/130/1371">CDS Catalog J/AJ/130/1371</a> file table9.dat which contains the entire contents of Table 9 from the published paper.

- Description:
- This table derives from a paper which is part of a series describing the results from the Australia Telescope Hubble Deep Field-South (ATHDFS) survey obtained with the Australia Telescope Compact Array. This survey consists of observations at 1.4, 2.5, 5.2, and 8.7 GHz, all centered on the Hubble Deep Field-South. Herein are presented the first results from the extended observing campaign at 1.4 GHz. A total of 466 sources have been cataloged to a local sensitivity of 5-sigma (11 µJy rms). A source extraction technique is developed that (1) successfully excludes spurious sources from the final source catalogs and (2) accounts for the nonuniform noise in the image. A source catalog is presented, and the general properties of the 1.4-GHz image are discussed in the reference paper. In the latter, the authors also present source counts derived from their ATHDFS 1.4-GHz catalog. The 1.4 GHz observations were carried out by the Australia Telescope Compact Array over 4 years from 1998 to 2001. They 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".
