A study of the revised 3C catalogue. I. Confusion and resolution.
Abstract
A catalogue is given of radio sources with flux densities larger than 9.0 Jy at 178 MHz. It is believed to be nearly unbiased and complete for S> - 5" and IbI > 10". It is based on the 3CR catalogue, but considerable corrections for confusion and resolution have been applied. Fifty nine sources have been removed from the original 255 3CR sources because they are too faint after correction for confusion. Nine new sources have been added. The new catalogue contains 205 sources. Key words: radio source catalogue - confusion
