The Parkes-MIT-NRAO (PMN) surveys. 3: Source catalog for the tropical survey (-29 deg less than delta less than -9 deg .5)
Abstract
We present a catalog of radio sources discovered at a frequency of 4850 MHz in the tropical zone (-29^deg^ < δ < -9.5^deg^) of Parkes-MIT- NRAO (PMN) Surveys. The tropical survey covers 2.01 sr and contains 13,363 sources to a flux limit that is, typically, about 42 mJy but varies as a function of declination. The survey was made using the Parkes 64m radio telescope with the NRAO multibeam receiver during 1990. This survey increases the number of known sources in the region surveyed by approximately a factor of 5. The data-taking and principal reduction methods used for the PMN surveys have been extensively described in a previous paper (Griffith & Wright 1993). In this paper we describe the specific details of the tropical survey, and we list the sources for the tropical survey. Later papers in the series will list objects for other survey zones, describe images made from the data, and provide analysis of the data.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
