4 unusual facts about Jansky


Jansky

For example, the 3C lists some 300 to 400 radio sources in the Northern Hemisphere brighter than 9 Jy at 159 MHz.

Since the jansky is obtained by integrating over the whole source solid angle, it is most simply used to describe point sources; for example, the Third Cambridge Catalogue of Radio Sources (3C) reports results in Jy.
