J1159+2914

The data on this page are described in detail in
The VSOP 5 GHz AGN Survey: V. Imaging results for the remaining 140 sources
by Dodson et al. in Astrophysical Journal Supplement, 175, 314-355 (May 2008) .
Please refer to this paper for details of the observations, analysis and interpretation.

The observation of J1159+2914 (1156+295) was made on 2001-Dec-12
with HALCA and 4 ground radio-telescopes over a duration of 01:30 (hours:minutes).
Baselines to HALCA were not necessarily available for all of that time.
The survey code for this source is vs05b*.
The observation was correlated at the Socorro correlator.
The source is classified as a quasar object at a redshift of 0.729.
