Interim Report on the Texas Survey
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 August 2015
Extract
The University of Texas Radio Astronomy Observatory (UTRAO) is engaged in a survey of the entire sky north of −35° declination at various frequencies in the range 335-380 MHz. Primary goals are (i) determination of accurate (∼1″) positions for about 50,000 sources, followed by (ii) optical identification of the sources on the basis of exact radio-optical position coincidence; (iii) provision of rough structure models for all listed sources; and (iv) monitor the sky for variable sources on the time scale of 1 to 2 years. The survey is not expected to be a reliable source of absolute flux density information except for those sources known to be unresolved from other work.
