A catalogue of micro-Jy radio sources in northern legacy fields

Abstract

We present catalogues of faint 1.4-GHz radio sources from extremely-deep Very Large Array pointings in the Lockman Hole, the Hubble Deep Field North (HDF-N) and ELAIS N2. Our analysis of the HDF-N data has produced maps that are significantly deeper than those previously published and we have used these to search for counterparts to submm sources. For each of the fields we have derived normalised differential source counts and in the case of the HDF-N find no evidence for the previously-reported under-density of sources; our counts are entirely consistent with those found for the majority of other fields. The catalogues are available as an online supplement to this paper and the maps are also available for download.
