Radio Spectra of the RATAN-600 RZF objects and population analysis of weak radio sourcesSemenova T.A., Parijskij Yu.N., Bursov N.N.SAO RAS
We considered the next questions: • RZF (RATAN-600 Zenith Field) catalog • RZF and all-z luminosity range • Type of spectra of RZF catalog • RZF, FIRST and SDSS objects • Multi-band photometry
RZF and all-z Luminosity Range The modern luminosity function of radio sources of the surveys VLA deep fields, RATAN-600 and GB 5GHz. The RZF survey is intermediate, with is depth sufficient for the study of the whole part of the luminosity function connected with radio galaxies.

RZF (Ratan-600 Zenith Field) catalog The catalog is a part of the deep multi-frequency survey of the sky with RATAN-600 near the local zenith in a strip 0h<RA<24h, at DECLINATION =DEC 3C84 +/-2 arcmin. This catalog is resulted within the context of “Cosmological Gene” project (http://www.sao.ru/hg/CG/CG.html)
Type of spectra Normal (-1.1<α ≤-0.5 ) 54.0% Flat (-0.5<α≤0) 25.8% Inverted (0<α ≤2.5 ) 6% Ultra Steep (-1.1 ≤ α <-2.0) 15.2%
Comparison of histograms of distribution of spectral indexes of strong radio sources (empty rectangles) and faint radio sources (filled rectangles, from data of the RZF catalog).
The histogram of a difference of distribution of spectral indexes of sources of surveys on RATAN-600 а) Strong (NCP> 200mJy) б) Weak (RZF survey <20mJy) The full number of objects was identical
First attempt to estimate Spectra of the WEAKEST population of NVSS Sky From of 10299 NVSS objects we divided into types: MOST objects have NORMAL spectra USS population- 15% Inverted spectra- 5%
Identification of RZF objects of the FIRST catalog resulted in the following statistics • Empty fields 5% • Quasi-pointlike radio sources (LAS<6 arc sec) 65% • Binary radio galaxies and quasars 13% • Triple objects 2% • Multiple objects 9% • Traces of “wind” in clusters 3% • Peculiar objects 3%
Sources Identifications Most of the sources were identified with NVSS and FIRST catalogs, but only 75% with SDSS. Analysis of morphology of objects at the mJy level led to the following conclusions: • The “point-like” population prevails (this is caused by too large red shifts Z for powerful radio galaxies and by transition to objects of small radio luminosity of the type AGN, Star-Burst galaxies). By “point-like” sources we mean objects that were not resolved by the catalog FIRST with its 6” diagram. • SDSS data often show sings of a possible gravitational disturbance of a host galaxy by a neighbor object.

Multi-band photometry • About 20% of the RZF sources are beyond r=22.5 and should have z>1 • Using the “Large Trio” experience, we found color red shifts for extremely faint SDSS objects. • Attempts of finding traces of “Break-galaxies” with the cut of optical emission beyond 912A by the SDSS filters u3540A, g4925A, r6335A, i7800A, z9294A gave a list of candidates to distant objects (Break-galaxies) z~4.5 19 objects (g-r>2m) z~6 4 objects (r-i>2m) z~7 3 objects (i-r>2m) The getting of the powerful Ly-alpha line into a filter causes an increase of brightness in this filter over neighbor filters for the population of powerful galaxies which are strong emitters in the Ly-alpha line (the experiment of the “Large Trio” in RC J0105+05). Analysis of obtained data resulted in detection of 3 analogous cases of the getting in the R filter (Z~4.2) and 3 cases in the I filter (Z~5.4).
Conclusions Most of the sources were identified with NVSS and FIRST catalogs, but only 75% with SDSS objects. Multi-band photometry of SDSS data showed that 20% of host galaxies are fainter than r=22.5m and they can have large red shifts (z>1). The population of FRII objects is presented worse in the RZF catalog than in catalogs with higher extreme fluxes. Observation confirmed a sharp fall of percentage of FRII objects. This does not contradict to recent models. This is usually interpreted as the change of a relative role of populations of objects with steep, flat and inverse spectra.
