RACS-high
收藏资源简介:
RACS-high数据集是由澳大利亚联邦科学与工业研究组织(CSIRO)创建的射电天文数据集,旨在通过澳大利亚SKA探路者(ASKAP)进行的大规模射电连续谱调查(RACS)生成天空模型。该数据集覆盖了约90%的天空,并在1655.5 MHz频段进行了观测,生成了2677509个射电源的目录。数据集的中值均方根噪声为195 µJy PSF−1,角分辨率为11.8×8.1角秒。数据集的创建过程包括校准、成像和源检测,最终生成的目录用于校准未来的ASKAP观测。该数据集广泛应用于射电天文学领域,特别是用于研究高红移射电星系、活动星系核(AGN)以及银河系内的射电源。
The RACS-high dataset is a radio astronomy dataset created by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), designed to generate sky models via the large-scale radio continuum survey (RACS) conducted with the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP). This dataset covers approximately 90% of the celestial sphere, was observed at the 1655.5 MHz frequency band, and has produced a catalog of 2,677,509 radio sources. The median root-mean-square (rms) noise of the dataset is 195 µJy PSF⁻¹, with an angular resolution of 11.8 × 8.1 arcseconds. The dataset creation process includes calibration, imaging, and source detection, and the final catalog is used to calibrate future ASKAP observations. This dataset is widely utilized in the field of radio astronomy, particularly for research on high-redshift radio galaxies, Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), and radio sources within the Milky Way.
