FAUST observations in 4th Galactic Quadrant

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The UV observations of FAUST are analysed in four sky fields (Dor, Cen, M81 and Tel), located in the general direction of the Fourth Galactic Quadrant, where 777 UV sources are detected, about 50% more than detected originally by Bowyer et al. (1993ApJ...415..875B).

Description

Ground-based objective-prism information for two of the fields were used to select the best-matching optical objects with which to identify the UV sources.

Using this, and correlations with existing catalogues, reliable identifications are presented for about 75% of the sources. Most of the remaining sources have assigned optical counterparts but, lacking additional information, we offer only plausible identifications. FAUST is a wide-field telescope (7.6{deg} diameter) designed to image diffuse and point sources in the wavelength range 140-180nm.

The experiment, the mission and the data are described in a previous paper by Bowyer et al., 1993ApJ...415..875B .
