RASS/Green Bank Catalog

This is referred to as the RASS/Green Bank sample: the HEASARC has abbreviated this to RASSGB to conform with the naming convention that we have used for other RASS catalogs (notice the catalog authors use the rather shorter acronym of RGB.

Core flux densities and positions accurate to +/- 0.5" are reported, as well as the GB measurements of the total radio emission, for each source. Because of the radio and X-ray selection criteria adopted, this catalog is believed to almost exclusively contain radio- and X-ray-loud active galaxies. These data are used in the paper by Laurent-Muehleisen et al. (1997) that contains the published version of this catalog to derive the core-to-lobe ratio of objects in this sample, and to discuss their core-dominance relative to samples of radio galaxies and BL Lac objects: the authors conclude that this sample is approximately an order of magnitude more core-dominated than the radio galaxy sample, but is more than an order of magnitude less core-dominated than highly-beamed BL Lac objects.
