VSOP Survey Statistical Results


Survey Source Brightness Temperature Distribution

Data taken from submitted datasets where a modelfit has been attempted. The highest brightness temperature component in these modelfits has been plotted. Sources where a point source or a line has been fitted are not shown as these represent a lower-limit on the brightness temperature. In the case where more than one person had reduced the same dataset, the model fit with the lowest brightness temperature was used.

Flux vs Flux

The following plot shows the scalar averaged flux density over the (u,v) radius range of 0 to 50 Mlambda plotted against mean flux density over the 450 to 500 Mlambda baseline. The plot includes only the sources for which data were collected on these baselines and experiments where the analyst was able to model or image the data.
