Low Frequency Catalogues of the CATS Database
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 May 2016
Abstract
We describe the most complete, publicly accessible database of radio sources, CATS (“astrophysical CATalogues Support system”). It contains more than 300 catalogues of objects detected in various (mostly radio) wavelength ranges. Apart from catalogues drawn from the most important existing surveys and compilations (e.g. NVSS, FIRST, GB6, IRAS, ROSAT, PGC, MCG), CATS includes the largest low-frequency catalogues published so far: UTR, Culgoora, Cambridge, Miyun, WENSS, TXS, Bologna and Molonglo etc., CATS allows one to operate with these, and to draw samples of objects for the study of a large variety of astrophysical problems. Some modes of access are described here.
