J/MNRAS/294/607 7C(G) 151MHz survey of the Galactic plane (Vessey+ 1998)
================================================================================

Abstract:
Results form a survey of the northern Galactic plane (at
declination >=30{deg} at 151MHz made with the Cambridge Low Frequency
Synthesis Telescope are presented. This survey is designated 7C(G) -
i.e. the Galactic portion of the ongoing 7C surveys. This covers the
regions 80{deg}<l<104{deg} and 126{deg}<l<180{deg}, for |b|<=5.5{deg},
and has some coverage to |b|~9{deg}, with a resolution of
~70x70cosec{delta}arcsec^2^ (RAxDec). The observations, data reduction
and calibration of this survey are described, and a catalogue of 6262
compact sources, with a completeness limit of ~0.25Jy over most of the
survey region, is presented. The catalogue has an rms positional
accuracy of better than 10arcsec, and the flux densities are tied to
the scale of Roger, Bridle & Costain (1973AJ.....78.1030R) with an
accuracy of better than 10 per cent.

Note (1): The rms accuracies are 5arcsec in RA and 7arcsec in DE
Note (2): Multiple peaks integrated together have the same centroid position
Note (3): Thew beam-fitted value is the preferred flux density unless the source
is clearly extended, in which case the integrated flux density should
be used.
