VLBA Calibrator Survey: Astrometric and Image Results

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Positions and maps of 1608 new compact sources were obtained in twelve sessions observed during 1994--2002 at the VLBA network at 8.4/2.3 GHz. These sources are recommended for use as calibrators for phase reference imaging and as geodetic sources for astrometric/geodetic VLBI applications.
