Interferometer phase calibration sources - II.The region 0 deg<=DEC50 <=20 deg

(ctsy. Ian Browne 11/97; TeX to ASCII by H.Andernach 11/97)

abstract

We present a catalogue of 782 compact radio sources in the declination range 0o < Delta(B1950) < +20o whose positions have been measured to an rms accuracy of about 14~mas with the VLA. These sources are primarily intended for use as phase calibration sources for the Jodrell Bank MERLIN. However, they will also be suitable as phase calibrators for the VLA and can be considered as candidate phase calibrators for VLBI Networks.

description for tables 2 and 3:

Col 1. Source name derived from B1950 coordinates.

Col 2. Source name derived from J2000 coordinates.

Col 3. Right ascension (hour, min, sec) in J2000.

Col 4. Declination (deg, arcmin, arcsec) in J2000.

Col 5. Total flux density in mJy at 8.4~GHz.

Col 6. Peak flux density in mJy per beam at 8.4~GHz.

Col 7. Comments about the source, mainly regarding structure. Terms have the following meaning:
