M82 radio sources flux density variations
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
This paper presents the results of the 2009-2010 monitoring sessions of the starburst galaxy M82, obtained with the Multi-Element Radio-Linked Interferometer Network (MERLIN) at 5GHz and e-MERLIN at 6GHz.
Description
Combining several 5GHz MERLIN epochs to form a map with 33.0{mu}Jy/bm noise level, 52 discrete sources, mostly supernova remnants and HII regions, are identified. These include three objects which were not detected in the 2002 5GHz MERLIN monitoring session: supernova SN2008iz, the transient source 43.78+59.3, and a new supernova remnant shell.
Flux density variations, in the long (1981 to 2010), medium (2002 to 2010) and short (2009 to 2010) term are investigated. We find that flux densities of supernova remnants (SNRs) in M82 stay constant in most of the sample (~95 per cent), although the distributions of flux density variations show an offset from zero. This is consistent with a slight statistical reduction in flux density of the source distribution.

In addition, aside from SN2008iz and the well-known variable source 41.95+57.5, two sources display tentative evidence for short- and medium-term variations over the period 2009-2010. These sources are amongst the most compact SNR in M82. These flux density variations could be due to changes in the circumstellar and interstellar medium in which the shocks travel.
