VizieR Online Data Catalog: Australia Telescope 20-GHz Survey. BSS (Massardi+, 2008)

The Australia Telescope 20-GHz (AT20G) Survey is a blind survey of the whole southern sky at 20GHz (with follow-up observations at 4.8 and 8.6GHz) carried out with the Australia Telescope Compact Array from 2004 to 2007.

The Bright Source Sample (BSS) is a complete flux-limited subsample of the AT20G Survey catalogue comprising 320 extragalactic (|b|>1.5{deg}) radio sources south of DE=-15{deg} with S_20GHz>0/50Jy. Of these, 218 have near simultaneous observations at 8 and 5GHz.

In this paper we present an analysis of radio spectral properties in total intensity and polarization, size, optical identifications and redshift distribution of the BSS sources.
