VizieR Online Data Catalog: MeerKAT Galaxy Cluster Legacy Survey (MGCLS) DR1 (Knowles+, 2022)
Abstract
We have presented a technical description and initial science results from the MGCLS DR1, which consists of 1.28GHz observations of 115 radio- and X-ray-selected galaxy clusters. The full list of MGCLS targets and associated legacy product status is available in Table 1. We note that the clusters were not selected to be a homogeneous or complete sample, so care must be taken in any statistical investigation of our cluster sample as a whole.
To facilitate community usage of the MGCLS DR1 products, we produced a compact source catalogue with more than 626000 radio sources over the 115 cluster fields (Table 2), as well as optical and infrared DECaLS cross-match catalogues for the compact sources in the Abell 209 and Abell S295 fields (t3-a209 and t3-as295). We have also provided a list of 59 multi-component extended radio sources in these two cluster fields (Table A1 and Table A2). Finally, in Table 4 we have provided a catalogue of diffuse cluster radio emission, containing 99 distinct sources detected in 62 of the MGCLS fields, 56 of which are new. The data products are available via the DR1 web page (https://doi.org/10.48479/7epd-w356) and the MGCLS website (http://mgcls.sarao.ac.za). The website will be updated when additional data products become available. (8 data files).- Publication:
