Here we present details of the construction of a new mosaic image covering an area of 4.56 deg2, an investigation of the reliability of the source measurements, and the 1.4 GHz source counts for the compiled radio catalog. The mosaic achieves a 1-sigma rms noise of 12 microJy at its most sensitive, and a homogeneous radio-selected catalog of over 2000 sources reaching flux densities as faint as 60 microJy has been compiled. The source parameter measurements are found to be consistent with the expected uncertainties from the image noise levels and the Gaussian source fitting procedure. A radio-selected sample avoids the complications of obscuration associated with optically selected samples, and by utilizing complementary PDS observations, including multicolor optical, near-infrared, and spectroscopic data, this radio catalog will be used in a detailed investigation of the evolution in star formation spanning the redshift range 0 < z < 1. The homogeneity of the catalog ensures a consistent picture of galaxy evolution can be developed over the full cosmologically significant redshift range of interest.2003AJ....125..465Hhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/125/465CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-tohttp://www.physics.usyd.edu.au/~ahopkins/phoenix/ : Phoenix Deep Survey HomeJ/ApJ/624/135 : Phoenix Deep Survey spectroscopic catalog (Afonso+, 2005)J/ApJS/155/1 : Phoenix Deep Survey: optical and NIR catalogs (Sullivan+, 2004)J/MNRAS/296/839 : Phoenix Deep Survey: 1.4-GHz source counts (Hopkins+, 1998)VIII/65 : 1.4GHz NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) (Condon+ 1998)VIII/81 : Sydney University Molonglo Sky Survey (SUMSS V2.1) (Mauch+ 2008)VIII/90 : The FIRST Survey Catalog, Version 12Feb16 (Becker+ 2012)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/125/465https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/125/465http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/125/465https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/125/465https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/125/465http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/125/465GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/AJ/125/465/catalog (Phoenix Deep Field 1.4GHz merged catalogue)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/125/465/catalog?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/125/465/catalog?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/125/465/catalog?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true16.494075-45.561791670.0055555555555555566/35047 35053-35055 35058-35059 35064-35066 35396-35397 354089.276497240453405e-25 9.276497240453405e-25https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/AJ/125/465?format=asciiRadiodefaultJ/AJ/125/465/catalogPhoenix Deep Field 1.4GHz merged cataloguerecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
