A MERLIN and VLBI Survey of Faint Compact Radio Sources

Garrett, M. A. · Garrington, Simon T.

Original · EN

We have selected a field from the VLA FIRST Survey which is typical in all aspects except one: it contains a bright, but extremely compact VLBI calibrator - J1159+291. 127 unresolved FIRST sources with SFIRST≥ 10 mJy lie within 2.5∘ of this calibrator. λ6 cm MERLIN observations with a resolution 60 mas detect around half the sources. These detections form the basis of a sample of faint but compact radio sources which are ideally suited to follow-up VLBI observations.
