VLA observations at 333 MHz: A Search for pancakes
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
The P-band is the most recently completed observing band at the VLA. The aperture efficiency of the antennas is 0.4 and the system temperature is ∼ 130 K. The primary beam is slightly off-axis and its half-power width is steeply frequency dependent, which induces abnormal spectral indices on off-axis (≥ 1°) sources. We have searched for Zel’dovich “pancakes” and reached a level of ΔSrms ∼ 3.5 mJy for spectral channels of width Δν ∼ 100 kHz. We find no pancake with MHI ≳5 × 1014 M⊙.
