Information on resource 'LBCS Calibrator Search'

This service queries the catalog of calibrators from the LOFAR Long-Baseline Calibrator Survey (LBCS). The LBCS aims to identify sources suitable for calibrating the highest-resolution observations made with the International LOFAR Telescope, which include baselines >1000 km. Suitable sources must contain significant correlated flux density (>50-100 mJy) at frequencies around 110-190 MHz on scales of a few hundred milliarcseconds. If you use this data, cite Jackson et al. 2016 (A&A 595A, 86J). For a description of the catalog format, see https://www.jb.man.ac.uk/~njj/lbcs_stats.sum.
