- Description:
- The 1135 galaxies in the Reference Catalogue of Bright Galaxies (Cat. <VII/16>) with declinations between +10{deg} and +70{deg} were surveyed at 6-cm wavelength with a 3-sigma detection limit of about 30mf.u.; of these 149 were detected. For 90 of these galaxies, spectral indices were obtained. There is a suggestion that the elliptical galaxies have flat spectra more often than the spiral galaxies.

- 31GHz survey of low-frequency radio sources

- Date:

- Description:
- The 100m Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope and the 40m Owens Valley Radio Observatory telescope have been used to conduct a 31GHz survey of 3165 known extragalactic radio sources over 143deg^2^ of the sky. Target sources were selected from the NRAO VLA Sky Survey in fields observed by the Cosmic Background Imager (CBI); most are extragalactic active galactic nuclei (AGNs) with 1.4GHz flux densities of 3-10mJy. The resulting 31GHz catalogs are presented in full online. Using a maximum-likelihood analysis to obtain an unbiased estimate of the distribution of the 1.4-31GHz spectral indices of these sources, we find a mean 31-1.4GHz flux ratio of 0.110+/-0.003 corresponding to a spectral index of {alpha}=-0.71+/-0.01 (S_{nu}_{prop.to}{nu}^{alpha}^); 9.0%+/-0.8% of sources have {alpha}>-0.5 and 1.2%+/-0.2% have {alpha}>0. By combining this spectral-index distribution with 1.4GHz source counts, we predict 31GHz source counts in the range 1mJy<S_31_<4mJy, N(>S_31_)=(16.7+/-1.7)deg^-2^(S_31_/1mJy)^-0.80+/-0.07^.

- 5GHz TMRT observations of 71 pulsars
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/874/64
- Date:

- CDS
- Description:
- We present integrated pulse profiles at 5GHz for 71 pulsars, including eight millisecond pulsars (MSPs), obtained using the Shanghai Tian Ma Radio Telescope. Mean flux densities and pulse widths are measured. For 19 normal pulsars and one MSP, these are the first detections at 5GHz --and for a further 19, including five MPSs, the profiles have a better signal-to-noise ratio than previous observations. Mean flux density spectra between 400MHz and 9GHz are presented for 27 pulsars and correlations of power-law spectral index are found with characteristic age, radio pseudo-luminosity, and spin-down luminosity. Mode changing was detected in five pulsars. The separation between the main pulse and interpulse is shown to be frequency independent for six pulsars, but a frequency dependence of the relative intensity of the main pulse and interpulse is found. The frequency dependence of component separations is investigated for 20 pulsars, and three groups are found: in seven cases, the separation between the outmost leading and trailing components decreases with frequency, roughly in agreement with radius-to-frequency mapping; in 11 cases, the separation is nearly constant; in the remaining two cases, the separation between the outmost components increases with frequency. We obtain the correlations of pulse widths with pulsar period and estimate the core widths of 23 multicomponent profiles and conal widths of 17 multicomponent profiles at 5GHz using Gaussian fitting, and we discuss the width-period relationship at 5GHz compared with the results at at 1.0 and 8.6GHz.

- 28-40GHz variability and polarimetry
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/502/4779
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We observed 51 sources in the Q-U-I JOint TEnerife (QUIJOTE) cosmological fields which were brighter than 1Jy at 30GHz in the Planck Point Source Catalogue (version 1), with the Very Large Array at 28-40GHz, in order to characterise their high-radio-frequency variability and polarization properties. We find a roughly log-normal distribution of polarization fractions with a median of 2%, in agreement with previous studies, and a median rotation measure (RM) of ~1110rad/m^2^ with one outlier up to ~64000rad/m^2^ which is among the highest RMs measured in quasar cores. We find hints of a correlation between the total intensity flux density and median polarization fraction. We find 59% of sources are variable in total intensity, and 100% in polarization at 3{sigma} level, with no apparent correlation between total intensity variability and polarization variability. This indicates that it will be difficult to model these sources without simultaneous polarimetric monitoring observations and they will need to be masked for cosmological analysis.

- 15GHz variability of {gamma}-ray blazars
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/438/3058
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present results from four years of twice-weekly 15GHz radio monitoring of about 1500 blazars with the Owens Valley Radio Observatory 40m telescope. Using the intrinsic modulation index to measure variability amplitude, we find that, with >6{sigma} significance, the radio variability of radio-selected {gamma}-ray-loud blazars is stronger than that of {gamma}-ray-quiet blazars. Our extended data set also includes at least 21 months of data for all AGN with 'clean' associations in the Fermi Large Area Telescope First AGN Catalog, 1LAC. With these additional data, we examine the radio variability properties of a {gamma}-ray-selected blazar sample. Within this sample, we find no evidence for a connection between radio variability amplitude and optical classification. In contrast, for our radio-selected sample we find that the BL Lac object subpopulation is more variable than the flat-spectrum radio quasar (FSRQ) subpopulation. Radio variability is found to correlate with the synchrotron peak frequency, with low- and intermediate-synchrotron-peaked blazars varying more than high-synchrotron-peaked ones. We find evidence for a significant negative correlation between redshift and radio variability among bright FSRQs.

- 230GHz VLBI observations of M87
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/807/150
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We report on 230GHz (1.3mm) very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations of M87 with the Event Horizon Telescope using antennas on Mauna Kea in Hawaii, Mt. Graham in Arizona, and Cedar Flat in California. For the first time, we have acquired 230GHz VLBI interferometric phase information on M87 through measurement of the closure phase on the triangle of long baselines. Most of the measured closure phases are consistent with 0{deg} as expected by physically motivated models for 230GHz structure such as jet models and accretion disk models. The brightness temperature of the event-horizon-scale structure is ~1x10^10^K derived from the compact flux density of ~1Jy and the angular size of ~40{mu}as~5.5R_s_, which is broadly consistent with the peak brightness of the radio cores at 1-86GHz located within ~10^2^R_s_. Our observations occurred in the middle of an enhancement in very-high-energy (VHE) {gamma}-ray flux, presumably originating in the vicinity of the central black hole. Our measurements, combined with results of multi-wavelength observations, favor a scenario in which the VHE region has an extended size of ~20-60R_s_.

- Description:
- The results of observations of a giant H II region, situated at the longitudes 4-10deg, at the wavelength 7.6cm are presented. A catalogue has been compiled containing 63 sources for which the positions, flux densities, and angular dimensions have been determined. Forty-four objects with the fluxes P<1Jy and having small angular sizes have been detected. The radio brightness distribution of the background component of the galactic radio emission has been obtained. A weak background extended by more than 2deg in the galactic latitude has been registered. It is shown that the detected weak objects represent a more high-latitude population than the strong galactic sources and are probably associated with the weak extended background.
