Abstract

This is the second release of the SPECFIND catalogue. For the radio cross-identification we included 3.76 million sources from 105 VizieR radio catalogues. The SPECFIND V2.0 catalogue contains about 107000 physical objects with associated radio spectra. With an increase of 8% of available sources with respect to the first release, we could increase the number of radio objects by 60%. The results of the spectrum identification process are provided as a master table, where a spectrum is attached to each radio source. Due to the SPECFIND algorithm, different radio sources of the same physical object can have somewhat different slopes and zero-points. We also present radio sources from positional cross-identification only taking into account the source extent and the survey resolution (overlapping beams or extents). The source flux densities were not taken into account as it was done for the SPECFINDV2.0 catalogue. In this sense, it represents the waste basket of SPECFINDV2.0.
