摘要:

作为GLOSTAR巡天的一部分,我们使用VLA在其B-配置中观察了C波段(4--8 GHz)28 d和36 d的纬度之间以及-1 d到+1 d纬度之间的银河平面部分。为了减少扩展源的污染,这些扩展源不能很好地被我们的(u,v)平面覆盖所恢复,我们丢弃了对角度尺度$<4"$上的发射敏感的短基线。由此产生的无线电连续图像的角分辨率为1.0”,灵敏度为$\sim60 μ$ γ束$^{-1}$,使其成为覆盖银河平面大面积区域的最灵敏的无线电测量。一个自动源提取算法与视觉检查相结合,以确定共3325个无线电源。共有1457个射电源是$\geq7σ$,构成了我们高度可靠的目录;其中72个被分为22个碎片源,例如,扩展和解析源的多个组件。为了探索编目的射电源的性质,我们在毫米和红外波长上寻找对应的射电源。我们的分类尝试产生了93个HII区候选者,104个射电星,64个行星状星云,而大多数剩余的射电源被认为是河外源。我们调查的频谱指数($α$,$S_ν\proptoν^α$)的无线电源被归类为HII区候选人,发现许多有负值。这可能意味着这些射电源代表年轻的恒星天体,它们是高质量恒星周围星团的成员,激发了HII区域,而不是这些HII区域本身。通过比较GLOSTAR和CORNISH巡天的峰值通量密度,我们确定了49个可变射电源,其中大部分性质未知。此外,我们还提供了1866个在5到7个$σ$级别内检测到的无线电源的列表。

英文摘要:

As part of the GLOSTAR survey we have used the VLA in its B-configuration to observe the part of the Galactic plane between longitudes of 28d and 36d and latitudes from -1d to +1d at the C-band (4--8 GHz). To reduce the contamination of extended sources that are not well recovered by our coverage of the (u, v)-plane we discarded short baselines that are sensitive to emission on angular scales $<4"$. The resulting radio continuum images have an angular resolution of 1.0", and sensitivity of $\sim60 μ$Jy~beam$^{-1}$; making it the most sensitive radio survey covering a large area of the Galactic plane with this angular resolution. An automatic source extraction algorithm was used in combination with visual inspection to identify a total of 3325 radio sources. A total of 1457 radio sources are $\geq7σ$ and comprise our highly reliable catalog; 72 of these are grouped as 22 fragmented sources, e.g., multiple components of an extended and resolved source. To explore the nature of the catalogued radio sources we searched for counterparts at millimeter and infrared wavelengths. Our classification attempts resulted in 93 HII region candidates, 104 radio stars, 64 planetary nebulae, while most of the remaining radio sources are suggested to be extragalactic sources. We investigated the spectral indices ($α$, $S_ν\proptoν^α$) of radio sources classified as HII region candidates and found that many have negative values. This may imply that these radio sources represent young stellar objects that are members of the star clusters around the high mass stars that excite the HII regions, but not these HII regions themselves. By comparing the peak flux densities from the GLOSTAR and CORNISH surveys we have identified 49 variable radio sources, most of them with an unknown nature. Additionally, we provide the list of 1866 radio sources detected within 5 to 7$σ$ levels.
