Radio Source Counts and their Interpretation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 19 July 2016
Abstract
Radio source counts at several wavelengths are shown and discussed in terms of evolving populations. The deepest counts now reach a surface density close to a million sources per steradian. At this level essentially all of the luminous radio galaxies and quasars appear to be included, and the weaker sources apparently reflect a relatively nearby population of less luminous radio sources.
