Are the infrared-faint radio sources pulsars?
Infrared-Faint Radio Sources (IFRS) are objects which are strong at radio wavelengths but undetected in sensitive Spitzer observations at infrared wavelengths. Their nature is uncertain and most have not yet been associated with any known astrophysical object. One possibility is that they are radio pulsars. To test this hypothesis we undertook observations of 16 of these sources with the Parkes...
متن کاملOptically Faint Microjansky Radio Sources.
We report on the identifications of radio sources from our survey of the Hubble Deep Field (HDF) and the Small Selected Area 13 fields, both of which comprise the deepest radio surveys to date at 1.4 and 8.5 GHz, respectively. About 80% of the microjansky radio sources are associated with moderate-redshift starburst galaxies or active galactic nuclei within the I-magnitude range of 17-24 with a...
متن کاملOptical Properties of faint FIRST Variable Radio Sources
A sample of 123 radio sources that exhibit significant variations at 1.4 GHz on a seven year base-line has been created using FIRST VLA B-array data from 1995 and 2002 on a strip at δ = 0 near the south Galactic cap. This sample spans the range of radio flux densities from ∼ 2 to 1000 mJy. It presents both in size and radio flux density range a unique starting point for variability studies of g...
متن کاملEstimating the Number of Wideband Radio Sources
In this paper, a new approach for estimating the number of wideband sources is proposed which is based on RSS or ISM algorithms. Numerical results show that the MDL-based and EIT-based proposed algorithm havea much better detection performance than that in EGM and AIC cases for small differences between the incident angles of sources. In addition, for similar conditions, RSS algorithm offers hi...
متن کاملThe Phoenix survey: the pairing fraction of faint radio sources
The significance of tidal interactions in the evolution of the faint radio population (sub-mJy) is studied using a deep and homogeneous radio survey (1.4GHz), covering an area of 3.14deg and complete to a flux density of 0.4mJy. Optical photometric and spectroscopic data are also available for this sample. A statistical approach is employed to identify candidate physical associations between ra...
