A semi-empirical simulation of the extragalactic radio continuum sky for next generation radio telescopes
R. J. Wilman, L. Miller, M. J. Jarvis +8
We have developed a semi-empirical simulation of the extragalactic radio continuum sky suitable for aiding the design of next generation radio interferometers such as the Square Ki…
Galaxy Evolution and Cosmology with the Square Kilometre Array
S. Rawlings, F. B. Abdalla, S. L. Bridle +4
The present-day Universe is seemingly dominated by dark energy and dark matter, but mapping the normal (baryonic) content remains vital for both astrophysics - understanding how ga…
Science with the Square Kilometer Array: Motivation, Key Science Projects, Standards and Assumptions
C. Carilli, S. Rawlings
The Square Kilometer Array (SKA) represents the next major, and natural, step in radio astronomical facilities, providing two orders of magnitude increase in collecting area over e…
Deep spectroscopy of z~1 6C radio galaxies - II. Breaking the redshift-radio power degeneracy
K. J. Inskip, P. N. Best, H. J. A. Rottgering +3
The results of a spectroscopic analysis of 3CR and 6C radio galaxies at redshift z~1 are contrasted with the properties of lower redshift radio galaxies, chosen to be matched in ra…
Deep spectroscopy of z~1 6C radio galaxies - I. The effects of radio power and size on the properties of the emission line gas
K. J. Inskip, P. N. Best, S. Rawlings +4
(abridged) The results of deep long-slit optical spectroscopy for a sample of 8 6C radio galaxies at z~1 are presented. Emission line ratios are derived for emission lines with res…
On the redshift cut-off for flat-spectrum radio sources
Matt J. Jarvis, Steve Rawlings
We use data from the Parkes Half-Jansky Flat-Spectrum (PHJFS) sample (Drinkwater et al. 1997) to constrain the cosmic evolution in the co-moving space density of radio sources in t…
Infrared photometry of z~1 3C quasars
Chris Simpson, Steve Rawlings
We present JHKL' photometry of a complete sample of steep-spectrum radio-loud quasars from the revised 3CR catalogue in the redshift range 0.65 < z < 1.20. After correcting for con…
Studies of a sample of 6C radio galaxies at redshift one, I -- Deep multi-frequency radio observations
P. N. Best, S. A. Eales, S. Rawlings +2
Deep radio observations at 5 and 8 GHz are presented of a complete sample of 11 radio galaxies with redshifts 0.85 < z < 1.5, selected from the 6C sample of Eales. The radio data,…
The radio luminosity function of radio-loud quasars from the 7C Redshift Survey
C. J. Willott, S. Rawlings, K. M. Blundell +1
We present a complete sample of 24 radio-loud quasars (RLQs) from the new 7C Redshift Survey. Every quasar with a low-frequency (151 MHz) radio flux-density S_151 > 0.5 Jy in two r…
