AT Large Area Survey (ATLAS) E-CDF-S 5.5-GHz Components Catalog

Spectral indices are an important tool for understanding the emission mechanism of the faint radio sources. The authors have observed the extended Chandra Deep Field South at 5.5 GHz using a mosaic of 42 pointings with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA).

Their image reaches an almost uniform sensitivity of ~ 12 µJy (µJy) rms over 0.25 deg² with a restoring beam of 4.9 arcsec x 2.0 arcsec, making the ATLAS 5.5-GHz survey one of the deepest 6-cm surveys to date. This table contains the 5.5 GHz catalog of 142 source components corresponding to the 123 sources in this field: the source counts from this field are discussed in the reference paper. This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2013 based on the electronic version of Table 1 from the reference paper which was obtained from the MNRAS web site.
