VLA Flux Density Calibrator Models |
This page is meant to serve up VLA flux density scale calibrator models. The models can be specified to be either a CASA Component List, or an AIPS CLEAN Component ASCII text file. It is meant to be specifically for the VLA (for now), and representative of our standard default frequency setups per-band. In the future it may be expanded to cover other telescopes (GMRT, for example), and have more fine-tuned frequency setting capability. It currently only provides models for Stokes I, but in the future we may expand it to cover polarization models as well. It accounts for the time variability of the sources, as much as we know that. The fundamental time variability is taken from the Perley & Butler observations ( Perley & Butler 2017; Perley & Butler 2013), which has been augmented by recent observations of 3C 48 (reference here, if we use Metsahovi data???). Because of that, the date must also be input. |
