| dc.description.abstractEn | The advent of next generation imaging telescopes such as LSST and Pan-STARRS - instruments with wide fields and huge Giga-pixel cameras - will soon create a critical need for deep and precise reference frames for astrometric calibrations. The Deep Astrometric Standards (DAS) program aims to establish such a frame by providing astrometry at the 5-10 mas accuracy level in four 10 sq. deg Galactic fields, to a depth of V=25. We use 3-4 m class optical telescopes to set up these standards. The principal source of our reference frame is UCAC2 and VLBI positions of radio-loud QSOs having optical counterparts with V<25. The novelty of the DAS project is a new way of linking our observations to the ICRF. We pre-select the candidate radio-optical link sources from existing radio surveys, then conduct the VLA observations to measure the spectra and spatial compactness and, finally, observe the best 10-15 sources with the VLBI. So far, two out of the four DAS fields are in the advanced stages of construction. | |
