93.2GHz observations of 9C sources

The observations were carried out, close to simultaneously, at two frequencies: 15.7GHz, using the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager (AMI) Large Array, and 93.2GHz, using the Combined Array for Research in Millimeter-wave Astronomy (CARMA). There is currently little direct information on the 90-GHz-band source count for S<~1Jy.

However, we have used the measured 15.7-to-93.2-GHz spectral-index distribution and 9C source count to predict the differential source count at 93.2GHz as 26+/-4(S/Jy)^-2.15^Jy^-1^sr^-1^; our projection is estimated to be most accurate for 10<~S<~100mJy. Our estimated differential count is more than twice the 90-GHz prediction made by Waldram et al. (2007, Cat. J/MNRAS/379/1442); we believe that this discrepancy is because the measured 43-GHz flux densities used in making their prediction were too low.
