A deep survey for high-velocity clouds
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 August 2017
Extract
The deep Dwingeloo survey for high-velocity clouds is now nearing completion. This survey consists of more than 28 000 positions in a 1° grid for δ>−18°. The velocity coverage is −1000 to + 1000 km/s and the detection limit (4σ) in Tb about 0.05 K, corresponding to ∫ Tadv = 1.0 K km/s or 10 Jy km/s or 2.2 r2M⊙ (r the distance in kpc) if we assume an average profile width of 25 km/s.
