ATCA monitoring observations of 202 compact radio sources in support of the VSOP AGN survey. (2003)

Keywords : galaxies active - radio continuum: galaxies - surveys - technique: interferometric

Abstract:The Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) has been used in support of the VLBI Space Observatory Programme (VSOP) space VLBI mission, to monitor the total and polarised flux densities of 202 objects that make up 83% of the VSOP all-sky Survey of compact extragalactic radio sources south of DE=+10{deg}. The primary goal of the ATCA observations is to provide information on the total and polarised emission from the compact components in these sources, for correlation with parameters obtained from VSOP imaging observations. These data represent the first high resolution, long timescale flux density monitoring observations of a large number of southern compact radio sources. In the future, comparison of the ATCA and VSOP data will be ...(more)
Abstract: (hide)
Observations of 202 radio sources from the VSOP Survey sample (Hirabayashi et al., 2000, Cat. <J/PASJ/52/997>) were made over a 3.5 year period with the ATCA (table 1) in the 8.6, 4.8, 2.5, and 1.4GHz bands.
