Bright Extra-Galactic AT20G Sources Polarizations Catalog
This table contains polarization data for 180 extragalactic sources extracted from the Australia Telescope 20-GHz (AT20G) survey catalog and observed with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) during a dedicated, high sensitivity run (sigma<sub>P</sub> ~ 1 mJy). For the sake of completeness, the authors extracted the polarization information for seven extended sources from the 9-yr Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe co-added maps at 23 GHz. The full sample of 187 sources constitutes a ~ 99% complete sample of extragalactic sources brighter than S<sub>20GHz</sub> = 500 mJy at the selection epoch with Declination below -30<sup>o</sup>. The sample has a 91.4% detection rate in polarization at ~ 20 GHz (94% if considering the sub-sample of point-like sources). The authors have measurements also at 4.8 and 8.6 GHz within ~1 month of the 20-GHz observations for 172 sources so as to reconstruct the spectral properties of the sample in total intensity and in polarization: 143 of them have a polarization detection at all three frequencies. The authors find that there is no statistically significant evidence of a relationship either between the fraction of polarization and frequency or between the fraction of polarization and the total intensity flux density. This indicates that Faraday depolarization is not very important above 4.8 GHz and that the magnetic field is not substantially more ordered in the regions dominating the emission at higher frequencies (up to 20 GHz). The authors estimate the distribution of the polarization fraction and the polarized flux density source counts at ~20 GHz. The selection of the sample was based on the list of confirmed AT20G sources available at the epoch of these observations (2006 October). The authors selected all objects with flux density S<sub>20GHz</sub> > 500 mJy and Declination below -30<sup>o</sup>, excluding the Galactic plane region (|b| <= 1.5o^) and the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) region (inside a circle of 5.5<sup>o</sup> radius centered at RA =05:23:34.7 and Dec=-69:45:22 in J2000.0 coordinates). This resulted in a complete sample of 189 sources. The observations were taken on October 1, 2006 using the most compact hybrid configuration of ATCA, H75, excluding the data from the farthest antenna. The longest baseline of this configuration is 75 m, and its T-shape ensures adequate Fourier coverage for snapshots taken on a relatively small range of hour angles and at high elevation. In a number of cases, indicated by source_flags values of 's', 'f' or 'w', the highest frequency data is not at 18 GHz, but at 20 or 23 GHz.

ATLargeAreaSurvey(ATLAS)CDF-S&ELAIS-S11.4-GHzDR2ComponentsCatalog
공공데이터포털
This table derives from the first of two papers describing the second data release (DR2) of the Australia Telescope Large Area Survey (ATLAS) at 1.4 GHz. This survey comprises deep wide-field observations in total intensity, linear polarization, and circular polarization over the Chandra Deep Field-South (CDF-S) and European Large Area Infrared Space Observatory Survey (ELAIS)-South 1 regions. DR2 improves upon the first data release by maintaining consistent data reductions across the two regions, including polarization analysis, and including differential number counts in total intensity and linear polarization. Typical DR2 sensitivities across the mosaicked multi-pointing images are 30 µJy per beam at approximately 12 arcseconds by 6 arcseconds resolution over a combined area of 6.4 square degrees. In their paper, the authors present detailed descriptions of their data reduction and analysis procedures, including corrections for instrumental effects such as positional variations in image sensitivity, bandwidth smearing with a non-circular beam, and polarization leakage, and application of the BLOBCAT source extractor. They present the DR2 images and catalogs of components (discrete regions of radio emission) and sources (groups of physically associated radio components), and describe new analytic methods to account for resolution bias and Eddington bias when constructing differential number counts of radio components. The authors use the term 'component' to refer to an isolated region of emission that is best described by a single 2D elliptical Gaussian. Blended regions of contiguous emission may consist of multiple individual components. Following the terminology from Hales et al. (2012, MNRAS, 425, 979), a 'blob' is an agglomerated island of pixels above an SNR cutoff, which may encapsulate a single component or a blended region of emission. In Section 6 of the reference paper, the authors use the term 'source' to refer to single or multiple components belonging to the same astronomical object. This HEASARC table contains the ATLAS 1.4 GHz DR2 component catalog, a portion of which is displayed in Table A1 of the reference paper for guidance regarding its form and content. The catalog lists a total of 2,588 components in total intensity and linear polarization; no components were discovered in circular polarization. A list of the ATLAS 1.4 GHz DR2 sources, a portion of which is displayed in Table B1 of the reference paper for guidance regarding its form and content, is not included in this HEASARC table. This table was created by the HEASARC in October 2014 based on an electronic version of Table A1 from the reference paper which was obtained from the MNRAS web site.

GPIPS DR4 Unique Star Catalog
공공데이터포털
The Galactic Plane Infrared Polarization Survey (GPIPS) covers 76 sq. deg. of the first Galactic quadrant midplane, 18<56 deg and -1<+1 deg, in H-band (1.6 micron) linear polarimetry to reveal the plane-of-the-sky orientation of the magnetic field in diffuse and denser atomic and molecular clouds. The Survey consists of 3234 overlapping 10x10 arcmin fields observed using the Mimir instrument on the 1.8 m Perkins telescope.The unique star data file (Clemens et al. 2020) collects all GPIPS photometry and polarimetry and all matching stellar data appropriate to each GPIPS star. The unique star file contains entries for 13,861,329 GPIPS stars.
Australia Telescope Chandra Deep Field-South and SDSS Stripe 82 20-GHz Sources
공공데이터포털
This table contains a source catalog, one of the first results from a deep, blind radio survey carried out at 20 GHz with the Australia Telescope Compact Array, with follow-up observations at 5.5, 9 and 18 GHz. The Australia Telescope 20GHz (AT20G) deep pilot survey covers a total area of 5 deg2 in the Chandra Deep Field South and in Stripe 82 of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The authors estimate the survey to be 90% complete above 2.5 mJy. Of the 85 sources detected, 55% have steep spectra (spectral index alpha1.420 < -0.5) and 45% have flat or inverted spectra (alpha1.420 >= -0.5). The steep-spectrum sources tend to have single power-law spectra between 1.4 and 18 GHz, while the spectral indices of the flat- or inverted-spectrum sources tend to steepen with frequency. Among the 18 inverted-spectrum (alpha1.420 >= 0.0) sources, 10 have clearly defined peaks in their spectra with alpha1.45.5 > 0.15 and alpha918 < -0.15. On a 3-yr time-scale, at least 10 sources varied by more than 15 percent at 20 GHz, showing that variability is still common at the low flux densities probed by the AT20G-Deep Pilot (AT20GDP) survey. The AT20G-Deep Pilot survey was carried out with he ATCA in 2009 July, shortly after the telescope was provided with a new wide-bandwidth correlator, the CABB. As a result of this upgrade to the telescope, the observing bandwidth was increased by a factor of 16, from 2x128 to 2x2048 MHz, in all bands (ranging from 1.1 to 105 GHz), greatly increasing the sensitivity of continuum observations. These observations were made in continuum mode using two 2048-MHz CABB bands centered at 19 and 21 GHz, with each 2048-MHz band divided into 2048 1-MHz channels. All four Stokes parameters were measured. This table was created by the HEASARC in August 2015 based on the union of CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/439/1212 files table2.dat (the 50 sources in the 3-hr field) and table3.dat (the 35 sources in the 21-hr field).
