A reliability study of the Miyun 232 MHz Catalogue.
Abstract
A meter-wave sky survey of the region north of declination +30° has been carried out with the Miyun Synthesis Radio Telescope (MSRT) at 232 MHz. The Miyun General Catalogue (MGC) contains 26957 radio sources except those located in the galactic plane, its electronic version is available now. The authors provide evidence of reliability of the MGC by comparing the MSRT data with other published radio catalogues and also by analyzing the reason why part of the detected sources in the MGC could not be recorded by previous surveys.
