SCORPIO ASKAP15 compact radio source catalogue

This dataset provides the compact radio source catalogue data extracted from ASKAP observations (15 antennae) of the SCORPIO field at 912 MHz, carried out in the context of ASKAP EMU Early Science phase. The reference scientific publication is S.Riggi et al., to appear on MNRAS. The dataset includes: - Source catalogue in tabular format: Two ascii/FITS table files with a series of summary parameters for each catalogued source islands and fitted components, respectively. Table format (number of data columns and column description) is detailed in the CAESAR source finder online documentation at https://caesar-doc.readthedocs.io. Additionally, we provide an added-value source component catalogue table (ascii and FITS formats) with extra-information (corrected fluxes, radio/infrared cross-match info, spectral indices, etc.). Its format is described in the reference publication; - Source catalogue in ROOT format: A ROOT file storing the list of catalogued sources and relative components as a CAESAR <em>Source</em> C++ object. For each source the summary parameters plus detailed information at pixel level are available. The detailed format is described in the CAESAR API documentation at https://caesar-doc.readthedocs.io. - Source list in region format: Two DS9 region files with the list of catalogued source islands and fitted components, respectively reported as labelled polygons or ellipses. - Background maps in FITS format: Two FITS files with background and noise maps obtained in the source finding process.
