Abstract

We report multiple epoch VLA/JVLA observations of 89 northern hemisphere sources, most with 37GHz flux density >1Jy, observed at 4.8, 8.5, 33.5, and 43.3GHz. The high frequency selection leads to a predominantly flat spectrum sample, with 85% of our sources being in the Planck Early Release Compact Source Catalog (ERCSC, Cat. VIII/88). These observations allow us to: 1) validate Planck's 30 and 44GHz flux density scale; 2) extend the radio spectral energy distributions of Planck sources to lower frequencies allowing for the full 5-857GHz regime to be studied; and 3) characterize the variability of these sources. At 30GHz and 44GHz, the JVLA and Planck flux densities agree to within ~3%. On timescales of less than two months the median variability of our sources is 2%. On timescales of about a year the median variability increases to 14%. Using the WMAP 7-year data, the 30GHz median variability on a 1-6 years timescale is 16%.
