Southern HII Region Discovery Survey (SHRDS): Dataset 2

Brief description

The Southern HII Region Discovery Survey is an Australia Telescope Compact Array 4-6 and 8-10 GHz radio continuum and radio recombination line survey of Milky Way HII regions (Wenger et al., 2021). This data archive contains all relevant intermediate data products from the final SHRDS data release (the Full Catalog). For each observed HII region and calibrator field, this archive contains (1) a 4 GHz bandwidth, full-Stokes, multi-scale, multi-frequency synthesis (MS-MFS) continuum FITS image, (2) up to sixteen 256 MHz bandwidth, full-Stokes, MS-MFS continuum FITS images covering the full 4 GHz bandwidth, (3) a Stokes I MS-MFS FITS image of each RRL transition, (4) a Stokes I multi-scale FITS data cube of each RRL transition, and (5) a FITS image containing the watershed segmentation region for each identified HII region at each observed frequency. The archive also includes the relevant residual images/cubes and primary beam images for all of these data products, as well as all of the images and cubes smoothed to a common angular resolution.
