摘要:

我们使用弧分钟微开尔文成像仪大阵列,在15.7 GHz处观测到了一个均方根噪声水平小于0.2 mJy的约27 ° ^2的区域。这些观测结果构成了1.4 GHz以上任何范围(大于约0.2度^[2])最灵敏的射电源调查。本文介绍了观测、制图和源提取所采用的技术。我们已经使用了一个系统的程序来提取信息和生产源目录,从不同的噪音和紫外线覆盖的地图。我们已经进行了模拟,以测试我们的映射和源提取程序,并制定了方法,用于识别扩展,重叠和虚假的来源,在嘈杂的图像。在AMI Consortium:Davies et al. 2010的随附论文中,介绍了10 C调查的第一批结果,包括深层15.7 GHz源计数。

英文摘要:

We have observed an area of approximatley 27 deg^2 to an rms noise level of less than 0.2 mJy at 15.7 GHz, using the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager Large Array. These observations constitute the most sensitive radio-source survey of any extent (greater than approximately 0.2 deg^2) above 1.4 GHz. This paper presents the techniques employed for observing, mapping and source extraction. We have used a systematic procedure for extracting information and producing source catalogues, from maps with varying noise and uv-coverage. We have performed simulations to test our mapping and source-extraction procedures, and developed methods for identifying extended, overlapping and spurious sources in noisy images. In an accompanying paper, AMI Consortium: Davies et al. 2010, the first results from the 10C survey, including the deep 15.7-GHz source count, are presented.
