Abstract:
Continuum radio surveys of a region containing the Coma cluster of galaxies
have been made at eight different frequencies with the DRAO and VLA
synthesis telescopes. These surveys detected 482 sources above 30 mJy
at 408 MHz within a circular region of diameter about 9.7deg and 298
sources in the frequency range 1.3-1.7 GHz within a circular region of
diameter 3.1deg. The completeness level of the surveys is 10 mJy at 1.4 GHz
for sources located within a 65' radius from the phase centre. 17 new
rotation measures were obtained for sources in the field of the Coma
cluster. Of 107 sources detected at 1380 MHz with the VLA within 30' radius
of its phase centre, 33 sources (31%) are optically identified with
galaxies. The number of yet unidentified cluster sources expected from the
survey is estimated to be about 20. With the redshift data currently
available, only 29 Coma cluster radio galaxies have been identified.
