Australia Telescope Hubble Deep Field-South Optical Identifications Catalog

The Australia Telescope Hubble Deep Field-South (ATHDF-S) survey of the Hubble Deep Field-South (HDF-S) reaches sensitivities of ~ 10 µJy (µJy) at 1.4, 2.5, 5.2, and 8.7 GHz, making the ATHDF-S one of the deepest surveys ever performed with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). This table contains the optical identifications of the ATHDF-S radio sources (the radio data from which are available in summarized form in the HEASARC ATHDFSCCAT table) using data from the literature. The authors find that ~ 66% of the radio sources have optical counterparts to an I magnitude of 23.5 mags. Deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging of the area identifies a further 12% of the radio sources. In this table, the authors present data from new spectroscopic observations for 98 of the radio sources and supplement these spectroscopic redshifts with photometric ones calculated from five-band optical imaging. The radio observations and data reduction are detailed in Papers I-III of this series: <pre> I = Norris et al., 2005, AJ, 130, 1358; II = Huynh et al., 2005, AJ, 130, 1373, available at the HEASARC as the ATHDFS1P4G table; III = Huynh et al., 2007, AJ, 133, 1331, available at the HEASARC as the ATHDFSCCAT and ATHDFS3FRQ tables. </pre> Palunas et al. (2000, ApJ, 541, 61) observed the HDF-S region using the Big Throughput Camera (BTC) on the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO) 4m during 1998 September. Images were taken in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) u, Johnson B and V, and Cousins R and I filters. In addition, the authors obtained spectra of the ATHDF-S radio sources over two service nights in 2001 July and 2003 October using the multi-fiber 2dF instrument of the Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT). They acquired low-resolution (9 Angstrom) spectra over the wavelength range from 3800 to 8000 Angstroms.

ARECIBO VENUS RADIO TELESCOPE RESAMPLED 12.6 CM RADAR V1.0

The Arecibo 12.6 cm radar data set for Venus consists of scaled radar backscatter cross section images generated from data obtained in 1983 and 1988. The images are in raster format (one image per record, with no embedded labels). The original images are in 16-bit, unsigned integer, most-significant-byte-first format. Since the volume of the entire set of 16-bit images would have exceeded the capacity of the CD-ROM, some of the images have been scaled to 8-bit versions. Specifically, the entire set of 1988 images are in the scaled 8-bit format, while all the 1983 images are in the original 16-bit format. Both the 16-bit and the 8-bit images were provided by Don Campbell, Cornell University.

Atacama Cosmology Telescope 2008 Survey 148-GHz Extragalactic Source Catalog

This table contains a list of extragalactic radio sources detected in a 455 square-degree map of the southern sky made at a frequency of 148 GHz from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) 2008 observing season. This catalog has 157 sources with flux densities spanning two orders of magnitude from 15 to 1500 mJy. Comparison to other catalogs shows that 98% of the ACT detections correspond to sources detected at lower radio frequencies. Three of the sources appear to be associated with the brightest cluster galaxies of low redshift X-ray selected galaxy clusters. Estimates of the radio to mm-wave spectral indices and differential counts of the sources further bolster the hypothesis that they are nearly all radio sources, and that their emission is not dominated by re-emission from warm dust. In a bright (>50 mJy) 148 GHz-selected sample with complete cross-identifications from the Australia Telescope 20-GHz survey, the authors of the study observe an average steepening of the spectra between 5, 20, and 148 GHz with median spectral indices of alpha5-20 = -0.07 +/- 0.06, alpha20-148 = -0.39 +/- 0.04, and alpha5-148 = -0.20 +/- 0.03. When the measured spectral indices are taken into account, the 148-GHz differential source counts are consistent with previous measurements at 30 GHz in the context of a source count model dominated by flat spectrum radio sources. Extrapolating with an appropriately rescaled model for the radio source counts, the Poisson contribution to the spatial power spectrum from synchrotron-dominated sources with flux density less than 20 mJy is CSync = (2.8 +/- 0.3) x 10-6 microKelvin2. This table was created by the HEASARC in January 2011 based on an electronic version of Table A1 from the paper (the Point Source Catalog) which was obtained from the LAMBDA website at <a href="http://lambda.gsfc.nasa.gov/product/suborbit/act_prod_table.cfm">http://lambda.gsfc.nasa.gov/product/suborbit/act_prod_table.cfm</a> This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

Hubble Space Telescope

Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is an orbiting astronomical observatory operating from the near-infrared into the ultraviolet. Launched in 1990 and scheduled to operate through 2010, HST carries and has carried a wide variety of instruments producing imaging, spectrographic, astrometric, and photometric data through both pointed and parallel observing programs. MAST is the primary archive and distribution center for HST data, distributing science, calibration, and engineering data to HST users and the astronomical community at large. Over 100 000 observations of more than 20 000 targets are available for retrieval from the Archive.

Atacama Cosmology Telescope 2008 Southern Survey 148/218 GHz Source Catalog

This table contains a catalog of 191 extragalactic sources detected by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) at 148 and/or 218 GHz in the 2008 Southern survey. Flux densities span 14 -1700 mJy, and the authors use source spectral indices derived using ACT-only data to divide their sources into two subpopulations: 167 radio galaxies powered by central active galactic nuclei (AGN) and 24 dusty star-forming galaxies (DSFGs). They cross-identify 97% of their sources (166 of the AGN and 19 of the DSFGs) with those in currently available catalogs. When combined with flux densities from the Australia Telescope 20-GHz survey and follow-up observations with the Australia Telescope Compact Array, the synchrotron-dominated population is seen to exhibit a steepening of the slope of the spectral energy distribution from 20 to 148 GHz, with the trend continuing to 218 GHz. The ACT dust-dominated source population has a median spectral index, alpha148-218GHz, of 3.7+0.62-0.86, and includes both local galaxies and sources with redshift around 6. Dusty sources with no counterpart in existing catalogs likely belong to a recently discovered subpopulation of DSFGs lensed by foreground galaxies or galaxy groups. The ACT experiment (Swetz et al., 2011, ApJS, 194, 41) is situated on the slopes of Cerro Toco in the Atacama Desert of Chile at an elevation of 5190m. ACT's latitude gives access to both the northern and southern celestial hemispheres. Observations occurred simultaneously in three frequency bands, at 148 GHz (2.0 mm), 218 GHz (1.4 mm) and 277 GHz (1.1 mm) with angular resolutions of roughly 1.4, 1.0 and 0.9 arcminutes, respectively. The ACT-detected source list contains 169 sources selected at 148 GHz with S/N > 5, spanning two decades in flux density, from 14 to 1700 mJy. The 218 GHz map independently yielded 133 sources with S/N > 5. The combination of these two independent source lists from which the present table was constructed gives a total count of 191 sources, with 110 galaxies detected with S/N > 5 at both frequencies. This table was created by the HEASARC in May 2015 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/439/1556/">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/439/1556/</a> file table4.dat.

Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope

The Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope UIT was one of three ultraviolet telescopes on the ASTRO-1 mission flown on the space shuttle Columbia during 2-10 December 1990. The same three instruments were later flown on the space shuttle Endeavour from 3-17 March 1995, as part of the ASTRO-2 mission. Exposures were obtained on 70-mm photographic film in the 1200-3300 Å range using broadband filters and later digitized using a Perkin-Elmer microdensitometer. Image resolution was 3" over a 40' field of view. Overall, UIT-1 obtained 821 exposures of 66 targets, and UIT-2 obtained 758 images of 193 targets.

Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope Field I 150-MHz Radio Source Catalog

Foreground removal is a major challenge for detecting the redshifted 21-cm neutral hydrogen (HI) signal from the Epoch of Reionization. The authors have used 150-MHz Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) observations to characterize the statistical properties of the foregrounds in four different fields of view. The observational data were used to assess point source subtraction. Considering the brightest source (~1 Jy) in each field, the authors find that the residual artefacts are less than 1.5% in the most sensitive field (FIELD I). Considering all the sources in the fields, they find that the bulk of the image is free of artefacts, the artefacts being localized to the vicinity of the brightest sources. The authors have used FIELD I, which has an rms noise of 1.3 mJy beam-1, to study the properties of the radio source population to a limiting flux of 9 mJy. The differential source count is well fitted with a single power law of slope -1.6. They find there is no evidence for flattening of the source counts towards lower flux densities which suggests that source population is dominated by the classical radio-loud active galactic nuclei. The authors have observed FIELD I in GMRT Time Allocation Committee (GTAC) cycle 15 in 2008 January, whereas FIELD II and FIELD III were observed in cycle 17 during 2010 February. These target fields were selected at high Galactic latitudes (b > 10o) which were up at night time during the GTAC cycles 15 and 17, and which contain relatively few bright sources (>= 0.3 Jy) in the 1400 MHz NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS). Finally, FIELD IV was observed in cycle 8 (2005 June). Full details of these 4 observations are given in Table 1 of the reference paper. This table contains the 150-MHz source catalog for the most sensitive observation, namely the 9.8-hour observation of Field I (centered on J2000.0 RA and Dec of 5h 30m 00s, +60o 00' 00"), which was made on 2008 January 8.

9C 15-GHz Ryle Telescope Survey of VSA Fields Source Catalog

The fields chosen for the first observations of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) with the Very Small Array (VSA) have been surveyed with the Ryle Telescope at 15 GHz. The authors have covered three regions around RA = 00h20m and Dec = +30o, RA = 09h40m and Dec = +32o and RA = 15h40m and Dec = +43o (J2000.0), comprising an area of 520 deg2. There are 465 sources in this entire area which are above the estimated completeness limit of ~ 25 mJy, although a total of ~ 760 sources were detected, some as faint as 10 mJy. The prime motivation of this study was to define a catalog of the foreground sources that must be monitored by the VSA during its observations at 34 GHz. In particular, it provides a means of identifying GigaHertz peaked spectrum (GPS) sources, which are important for the study of radio source evolution, as well as being a significant foreground for CMB observations over a range of wavelengths. Since this will be a new and quite extensive survey, it was desgignated as '9C' or the Ninth Cambridge survey. For the purpose of this particular component of the 9C survey, the authors designated as a subset, 3 circular areas, VSA1, VSA2 and VSA3, defined by the properties listed in Table 2 of the reference paper and reproduced below: <pre> Field Centre J2000.0 Center B1950.0 Radius Area RA Dec RA Dec (degrees) (sq. degrees) VSA1 00 17 36.5 +30 16 39 00 15 00.0 +30 00 00 5.5 95.0 VSA2 09 40 57.7 +31 46 21 09 38 00.0 +32 00 00 6.0 113.0 VSA3 15 36 42.7 +43 20 11 15 35 00.0 +43 30 00 5.0 78.5 </pre> There are 242 sources which were both above the 25 mJy completeness limit and were in the 286.5 deg2 contained within these 3 circular fields. These source were listed in 3 tables in the reference paper, Table 4 (VSA1), Table 5 (VSA2) and Table 6 (VSA3). These have been combined into this one HEASARC table, in which the HEASARC added a new parameter vsa_field, which is set to 1 for the VSA1 sources, 2 for the VSA2 sources, and 3 for the VSA3 sources. This table was created in November 2010 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/342/915">CDS catalog J/MNRAS/342/915</a> files table4.dat, table5.dat and table6.dat.

Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope Spitzer xFLS Field 610-MHz Radio Source Catalog

This table contains a source catalog based on observations of the Spitzer extragalactic First Look Survey (xFLS) field taken at 610 MHz with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT). Seven individual pointings were observed, covering a total area of ~ 4 square degrees with a resolution of 5.8 x 4.7 arcsec2, position angle 60 degrees. The rms noise at the center of the pointings is between 27 and 30 microJansky (µJy) before correction for the GMRT primary beam. The techniques used for data reduction and production of a mosaicked image of the region are described in the reference paper, where the final mosaic, along with a catalog of 3944 sources detected above a ~ 5-sigma threshold, are presented. The survey complements existing radio and infrared data available for this region. For further details of the surveys and data analysis procedures, please refer to the published paper. This table contains the xFLS catalog of 3944 610-MHz radio sources detected by the GMRT, the 05-May-2008 (Release 1.1) version provided to the CDS by the co-author Sally Hales (MRAO, Cambridge). In this version, a rounding error in the right ascension and declination positions listed for some sources in the original 10-May-2007 (Release 1.0) version has been corrected. The source IAU designations remain unchanged, having been based on the correctly computed positions throughout. The main purpose in correcting the positions was to eliminate sporadic mismatches between IAU designation and listed position in the first data release. In other respects the effect on the positions is negligible. This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2012 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/376/1251">CDS catalog J/MNRAS/376/1251</a> file gmrtfls.dat, the release 1.1 (05-May-2008) version.

Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope LBDS-Lynx Region 150-MHz Radio Source Catalog

It has been known for nearly three decades that high-redshift radio galaxies exhibit steep radio spectra, and hence ultrasteep spectrum radio sources provide candidates for high-redshift radio galaxies. Nearly all radio galaxies with z > 3 have been found using this redshift-spectral index correlation. The authors have started a program with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) to exploit this correlation at flux density levels about 10 to 100 times deeper than the known high-redshift radio galaxies which were identified primarily using the already available radio catalogs. In their program, they have obtained deep, high-resolution radio observations at 150 MHz with the GMRT for several "deep" fields which are well studied at higher radio frequencies and in other bands of the electromagnetic spectrum, with the aim to detect candidate high-redshift radio galaxies. In their paper, they present results from the deep 150-MHz observations of the LBDS (Leiden-Berkeley Deep Survey) Lynx field, which has been already imaged at 327, 610 and 1412 MHz with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) and at 1400 and 4860 MHz with the Very Large Array (VLA). The counterparts for the 150-MHz sources at higher radio frequencies were searched within a 20-arcsec radius from the 150-MHz position. The 150-MHz image made with the GMRT has an rms noise of ~ 0.7 mJy beam-1 and a resolution of ~ 19 x 15 arcsec2. It is the deepest low-frequency image of the LBDS-Lynx field. The source catalog of this field at 150 MHz has 765 sources down to ~ 20% of the primary beam response, covering an area of about 15 deg2. The spectral index was estimated by cross-correlating each source detected at 150 MHz with the available observations at 327, 610, 1400 and 4860 MHz and also using available radio surveys such as the Westerbork Northern Sky Survey (WENSS) at 327 MHz and the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) and the Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty-cm (FIRST) survey at 1400 MHz. A total of 639 sources out of 765 (83%) have spectral indices determined. The remaining 17% of the sources are mostly weak radio sources with a median flux density of ~ 9 mJy, or fall in the regions where deep observations at higher frequencies do not exist. The median spectral index of the sample is 0.78. The authors find about 150 radio sources with spectra steeper than 1. About two-thirds of these are not detected in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), hence are strong candidate high-redshift radio galaxies, which need to be further explored with deep infrared imaging and spectroscopy to estimate the redshift. The list of the 98 such steep-spectrum sources lacking SDSS counterparts is given in Table 4 of the published paper. This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2012 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/405/436">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/405/436</a> file table3.dat.

Australia Telescope Chandra Deep Field-South and SDSS Stripe 82 20-GHz Sources

This table contains a source catalog, one of the first results from a deep, blind radio survey carried out at 20 GHz with the Australia Telescope Compact Array, with follow-up observations at 5.5, 9 and 18 GHz. The Australia Telescope 20GHz (AT20G) deep pilot survey covers a total area of 5 deg2 in the Chandra Deep Field South and in Stripe 82 of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The authors estimate the survey to be 90% complete above 2.5 mJy. Of the 85 sources detected, 55% have steep spectra (spectral index alpha1.420 < -0.5) and 45% have flat or inverted spectra (alpha1.420 >= -0.5). The steep-spectrum sources tend to have single power-law spectra between 1.4 and 18 GHz, while the spectral indices of the flat- or inverted-spectrum sources tend to steepen with frequency. Among the 18 inverted-spectrum (alpha1.420 >= 0.0) sources, 10 have clearly defined peaks in their spectra with alpha1.45.5 > 0.15 and alpha918 < -0.15. On a 3-yr time-scale, at least 10 sources varied by more than 15 percent at 20 GHz, showing that variability is still common at the low flux densities probed by the AT20G-Deep Pilot (AT20GDP) survey. The AT20G-Deep Pilot survey was carried out with he ATCA in 2009 July, shortly after the telescope was provided with a new wide-bandwidth correlator, the CABB. As a result of this upgrade to the telescope, the observing bandwidth was increased by a factor of 16, from 2x128 to 2x2048 MHz, in all bands (ranging from 1.1 to 105 GHz), greatly increasing the sensitivity of continuum observations. These observations were made in continuum mode using two 2048-MHz CABB bands centered at 19 and 21 GHz, with each 2048-MHz band divided into 2048 1-MHz channels. All four Stokes parameters were measured. This table was created by the HEASARC in August 2015 based on the union of <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/439/1212">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/439/1212</a> files table2.dat (the 50 sources in the 3-hr field) and table3.dat (the 35 sources in the 21-hr field).

Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope Master Catalog

The Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UIT) was one of three ultraviolet telescopes on the ASTRO-1 mission flown on the Space Shuttle Columbia during the period of 2 - 10 December 1990. The same three instruments were later flown on the Space Shuttle Endeavour during 3 - 17 March 1995, as part of the ASTRO-2 mission. Exposures were obtained on 70-mm photographic film in the 1200-3300 Angstrom range using broadband filters and later digitized using a Perkin-Elmer microdensitometer. The image resolution was 3 arcseconds over a 40 arcminute field of view and images of targets as faint as 21st (ultraviolet) magnitude were recorded. Overall, the UIT-1 mission obtained 821 exposures of 66 targets (361 near-UV and 460 far-UV), and UIT-2 obtained 758 images of 193 targets (all far-UV), for a total of 1579 exposures. This table contains only 1481 rows, 777 UIT-1 exposures (347 near-UV and 430 far-UV) and 704 UIT-2 exposures (all far-UV), implying that 98 exposures are 'missing' from this table. This table was created by the HEASARC in April 2012 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/VI/104">CDS Catalog VI/104</a> file uitlist.dat.

Australia Telescope 2FGL Unassociated Sources Radio Source Catalog

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.

Swift X-Ray Telescope Cluster Survey Catalog

This table contains the Swift X-ray Cluster Survey (SWXCS) catalog obtained using archival data from the X-ray telescope (XRT) on board the Swift satellite acquired from 2005 February to 2012 November, extending the first release of the SWXCS. The catalog provides positions and soft X-ray fluxes for a flux-limited sample of X-ray group and cluster candidates. In Table 3 of the reference paper (available at the HEASARC as the linked table SWXCSOXID), when possible, optical counterparts are given for these candidates. The authors consider the fields with Galactic latitude |b| > 20 degrees so as to avoid regions of high H I column density. They discard all of the observations targeted at groups or clusters of galaxies, as well as particular extragalactic fields not suitable for searching for faint extended sources. The authors finally select ~ 3000 useful fields covering a total solid angle of ~ 400 deg2. They identify extended source candidates in the soft-band (0.5-2 keV) images of these fields using the software EXSdetect, which is specifically calibrated for the XRT data. Extensive simulations are used to evaluate contamination and completeness as a function of the source signal, allowing the authors to minimize the number of spurious detections and to robustly assess the selection function. The final catalog includes 263 candidate galaxy clusters and groups down to a flux limit of 7 x 10-15 erg/cm2/s in the soft band (0.5 - 2.0 keV), and the log N - log S is in very good agreement with previous deep X-ray surveys. In the reference paper, the final list of sources is cross-correlated with published optical, X-ray, and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich catalogs of clusters. The authors find that 137 sources have been previously identified as clusters in the literature in independent surveys, while 126 are new detections. Currently, they have collected redshift information for 158 sources (60% of the entire sample). From the entire Swift XRT archive in the period 2005 February-2012 November, the authors have selected all the fields that can be used to build an unbiased, serendipitous X-ray cluster catalog. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2015 based on an electronic version of Table 2 from the reference paper which was obtained from the CDS as their catalog J/ApJS/216/28 file table2.dat.
