WSRT 1.4 GHz Observations of the Hubble Deep Field

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We present WSRT 1.38 GHz observations of the Hubble Deep Field (and flanking fields). 72 hours of data were combined to produce the WSRT's deepest image yet, achieving an r.m.s. noise level of 8 microJy per beam. We detect radio emission from galaxies both in the HDF and HFF which have not been previously detected by recent MERLIN or VLA studies of the field.
