Fifth VLBA calibrator survey: VCS5
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
This paper presents the fifth part of the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) Calibrator Survey (VCS), containing 569 sources not observed previously with very long baseline interferometry in geodetic or absolute astrometry programs.
Description
This campaign has two goals: (1) to observe additional sources that, together with previous survey results, form a complete sample, and (2) to find new strong sources suitable as phase calibrators.
This VCS extension was based on three 24-hr VLBA observing sessions in 2005. It detected almost all extragalactic flat-spectrum sources with correlated flux density greater than 200mJy at 8.6GHz above declination -30{deg} that were not observed previously. Source positions with milliarcsecond accuracy were derived from astrometric analysis of ionosphere-free combinations of group delays determined from the 2.3 and 8.6GHz frequency bands.
