- Description:
- The vast majority of Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs) were detected by their synchrotron radio emission. Recently, the evolved SNR G107.0+9.0 with a diameter of about 3D or 75pc up to 100pc in size was optically detected with an indication of faint associated radio emission. This SNR requires a detailed radio study. We searched for radio emission from SNR G107.0+9.0 by analysing new data from the Effelsberg 100-m and the Urumqi 25-m radio telescopes in addition to available radio surveys. Radio SNRs outside of the Galactic plane, where confusion is rare, must be very faint if they have not been identified so far. Guided by the H{alpha} emission of G107.0+9.0, we separated its radio emission from the Galactic large-scale emission. Radio emission from SNR G107.0+9.0 is detected between 22MHz and 4.8GHz with a steep non-thermal spectrum, which confirms G107.0+9.0 as an SNR. Its surface brightness is among the lowest known for Galactic SNRs. Polarised emission is clearly detected at 1.4GHz but is fainter at 4.8GHz. We interpret the polarised emission as being caused by a Faraday screen associated with G107.0+9.0 and its surroundings. Its ordered magnetic field along the line of sight is below 1-microG. At 4.8GHz, we identified a depolarised filament along the western periphery of G107.0+9.0 with a magnetic field strength along the line of sight B_parallel_~15-microG, which requires magnetic field compression. G107.0+9.0 adds to the currently small number of known, evolved, large-diameter, low-surface-brightness Galactic SNRs. We have shown that such objects can be successfully extracted from radio-continuum surveys despite the dominating large-scale diffuse Galactic emission.

- 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.

- The Allen Telescope Array 20cm Survey (ATATS). I.
- Short Name:

- Description:
- We present the Allen Telescope Array Twenty-centimeter Survey (ATATS), a multi-epoch (12 visits), 690deg^2^ radio image and catalog at 1.4GHz. The survey is designed to detect rare, very bright transients as well as to verify the capabilities of the ATA to form large mosaics. The combined image using data from all 12 ATATS epochs has rms noise {sigma}=3.94mJy/beam and dynamic range 180, with a circular beam of 150" FWHM. It contains 4408 sources to a limiting sensitivity of 5{sigma}=20mJy/beam. We compare the catalog generated from this 12 epoch combined image to the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS), a legacy survey at the same frequency, and find that we can measure source positions to better than ~20". For sources above the ATATS completeness limit, the median flux density is 97% of the median value for matched NVSS sources, indicative of an accurate overall flux calibration. We examine the effects of source confusion due to the effects of differing resolution between ATATS and NVSS on our ability to compare flux densities. We detect no transients at flux densities greater than 40mJy in comparison with NVSS and place a 2{sigma} upper limit of 0.004deg^-2^ on the transient rate for such sources. These results suggest that the >~1Jy transients reported by Matsumara et al. may not be true transients, but rather variable sources at their flux density threshold.

- Description:
- We present a catalog of 8358 sources extracted from images produced by the Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey (BGPS). The BGPS is a survey of the millimeter dust continuum emission from the northern Galactic plane. The catalog sources are extracted using a custom algorithm, Bolocat, which was designed specifically to identify and characterize objects in the large-area maps generated from the Bolocam instrument. The catalog products are designed to facilitate follow-up observations of these relatively unstudied objects. The catalog is 98% complete from 0.4Jy to 60Jy over all object sizes for which the survey is sensitive (<3.5'). We find that the sources extracted can best be described as molecular clumps-large dense regions in molecular clouds linked to cluster formation. We find that the flux density distribution of sources follows a power law with dN/dS{prop.to}S^-2.4+/-0.1^ and that the mean Galactic latitude for sources is significantly below the midplane: <b>=(-0.095+/-0.001{deg}).

- Description:
- We present a catalog of compact sources of radio emission at 1420MHz in the northern Galactic plane from the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey. The catalog contains 72758 compact sources with an angular size less than 3' within the Galactic longitude range 52{deg}<l<192{deg} down to a 5{sigma} detection level of ~1.2mJy. Linear polarization properties are included for 12368 sources with signals greater than 4{sigma}_QU_ in the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey (CGPS) Stokes Q and U images at the position of the total intensity peak. We compare CGPS flux densities with cataloged flux densities in the Northern VLA Sky Survey catalog for 10897 isolated unresolved sources with CGPS flux density greater than 4mJy to search for sources that show variable flux density on timescales of several years. We identify 146 candidate variables that exhibit high fractional variations between the two surveys. In addition, we identify 13 candidate transient sources that have CGPS flux density above 10mJy but are not detected in the Northern VLA Sky Survey.

- Description:
- The high-frequency radio sky, like the gamma-ray sky surveyed by the Fermi satellite, is dominated by flat spectrum radio quasars and BL Lac objects at bright flux levels. To investigate the relationship between radio and gamma-ray emission in extragalactic sources, we have cross-matched the Australia Telescope 20 GHz survey catalog (AT20G) with the Fermi-LAT 1 year Point Source Catalog (1FGL). The 6.0sr of sky covered by both catalogs (DEC<0{deg},|b|>1.5{deg}) contains 5890 AT20G radio sources and 604 1FGL gamma-ray sources. The AT20G source positions are accurate to within ~1 arcsec and, after excluding known Galactic sources, 43% of Fermi 1FGL sources have an AT20G source within the 95% Fermi confidence ellipse. Monte Carlo tests imply that at least 95% of these matches are genuine associations. Only five gamma-ray sources (1% of the Fermi catalog) have more than one AT20G counterpart in the Fermi error box. The AT20G matches also generally support the active galactic nucleus (AGN) associations in the First LAT AGN Catalog. We find a trend of increasing gamma-ray flux density with 20GHz radio flux density. The Fermi detection rate of AT20G sources is close to 100% for the brightest 20GHz sources, decreasing to 20% at 1Jy, and to roughly 1% at 100mJy. Eight of the matched AT20G sources have no association listed in 1FGL and are presented here as potential gamma-ray AGNs for the first time. We also identify an alternative AGN counterpart to one 1FGL source. The percentage of Fermi sources with AT20G detections decreases toward the Galactic plane, suggesting that the 1FGL catalog contains at least 50 Galactic gamma-ray sources in the southern hemisphere that are yet to be identified.

- Description:
- We present a wide-field, subarcminute-resolution VLA image of the Galactic center region at 330MHz. With a resolution of ~7"x12" and an rms noise of 1.6mJy/beam, this image represents a significant increase in resolution and sensitivity over the previously published VLA image at this frequency. The improved sensitivity has more than tripled the census of small-diameter sources in the region, has resulted in the detection of two new nonthermal filaments (NTFs), 18 NTF candidates, and 30 pulsar candidates, reveals previously known extended sources in greater detail, and has resulted in the first detection of Sagittarius A* in this frequency range.
