    The VLBA CANDELS GOODS-North Survey. I - Survey Design, Processing, Data Products, and Source Counts

    Get PDF
    The past decade has seen significant advances in wide-field cm-wave very long baseline interferometry (VLBI), which is timely given the wide-area, synoptic survey-driven strategy of major facilities across the electromagnetic spectrum. While wide-field VLBI poses significant post-processing challenges that can severely curtail its potential scientific yield, many developments in the km-scale connected-element interferometer sphere are directly applicable to addressing these. Here we present the design, processing, data products, and source counts from a deep (11 μJy beam-1), quasi-uniform sensitivity, contiguous wide-field (160 arcmin2) 1.6 GHz VLBI survey of the CANDELS GOODS-North field. This is one of the best-studied extragalactic fields at milli-arcsecond resolution and, therefore, is well-suited as a comparative study for our Tera-pixel VLBI image. The derived VLBI source counts show consistency with those measured in the COSMOS field, which broadly traces the AGN population detected in arcsecond-scale radio surveys. However, there is a distinctive flattening in the S1.4GHz ∼100-500 μJy flux density range, which suggests a transition in the population of compact faint radio sources, qualitatively consistent with the excess source counts at 15 GHz that is argued to be an unmodelled population of radio cores. This survey approach will assist in deriving robust VLBI source counts and broadening the discovery space for future wide-field VLBI surveys, including VLBI with the Square Kilometre Array, which will include new large field-of-view antennas on the African continent at ≥1000~km baselines. In addition, it may be useful in the design of both monitoring and/or rapidly triggered VLBI transient programmes

    Corridor Gothic

    This article investigates the role of the corridor in Gothic fiction and horror film from the late eighteenth century to the present day. It seeks to establish this transitional space as a crucial locus, by tracing the rise of the corridor as a distinct mode of architectural distribution in domestic and public buildings since the eighteenth century. The article tracks pivotal appearances of the corridor in fiction and film, and in the final phase argues that it has become associated with a specific emotional tenor, less to do with amplified fear and horror and more with emotions of Angst or dread

    Observations during a tour to the Lakes of Lancashire, Westmoreland, and Cumberland

    No full text
    In 1794, Ann Radcliffe set off on a tour of the Lake District. She was at the very height of her fame, having already published three of her most successful Gothic novels. Her 'Observations during a Tour to the Lakes' provides an important stepping-stone in the journey from picturesque tourism to Wordsworth's development of a poetics of place from 1799 onwards. Though 'Observations' has been marginalised within subsequent accounts of Lakes literature, it was well-known in Romantic contexts and remained at the forefront of cultural accounts of the Lakes for many years, informing both Thomas De Quincey and John Keats's expectations about the region prior to their own encounters with this landscape

    Les guerres, même les plus sanglantes, ne divisent aujourd’hui les nations que sous les rapports politiques. Les arts, les sciences et le commerce réunissent les individus, malgré l’acharnement des cabinets ; et le bon sens a enfin appris aux Français, aux Anglais et aux Allemands qu’en dépit des canons et des baïonnettes dont leurs frontières sont hérissées, il était encore possible de mettre en commun ses richesses, son industrie, ses pensées et ses plaisirs.Nous publions aujourd’hui le qu..

    Julia ou les souterrains du château de Mazzini

    IntroductionSur la rive septentrionale de Sicile, on découvre les magnifiques ruines d’un château qui a jadis appartenu à la maison de Mazzini. Il est bâti au fond d’une petite baie, sur une pente douce qui, d’un côté, se prolonge jusqu’à la mer et, de l’autre, se termine par une éminence couverte de bois touffus. Le site est rempli de beautés vraiment pittoresques et ces ruines ont conservé un air de grandeur antique qui, contrastant avec leur solitude actuelle, remplit l’âme de celui qui l..
