Positions and Flux Densities at 5000 MHz for 1133 Weak Radio Sources

Abstract

Flux densities and positions have been measured at 5000 MHz for all the radio sources in the Parkes 2700 MHz catalogue with S2700 = 0·25 Jy for which no 5000 MHz data have previously been published. The new positions of the sources, which are of considerably higher accuracy than those measured at 2700 MHz, have been examined on the available sky survey material: 17 previously suggested identifications are rejected, but alternative identifications are proposed for 4 of these; identifications are proposed for \18 other sources.
