    Testing Models of Radio Source Space Density Evolution with the SUMSS Survey

    We present the population data as predicted by our space density analysis at the SUMSS frequency of 843 MHz. This data demonstrates the potential of the SUMSS survey to trace in detail the change-over in radio...

    Variance and Skewness in the FIRST Survey

    We investigate the large-scale clustering of radio sources by analysing the distribution function of the FIRST 1.4 GHz survey. We select a reliable galaxy sample from the FIRST catalogue, paying particular att...

    Cosmological Inference from New Radio Surveys

    In 1976 and 1977 a series of elegant papers by Adrian Webster (1976 et seq.) apparently laid to rest the prospect of topological cosmology from radio surveys. Introducing astronomers to Fourier Power Spectrum Ana...

    Declining Quasar Fractions as Evidence for Unified Schemes

    This paper presents results from our new statistical analysis which is based on unified schemes for the high-power FRII and moderate-power FRI radio sources, and which explores the evolution and Doppler beamin...

    Clusters of Galaxies at Intermediate Redshifts from the NRAO VLA Sky Survey

    One of the major topics in modern cosmology and astrophysics concerns the present status and the past evolution of clusters of galaxies, as well as the knowledge of their abundance, spatial correlations, morph...

    Multi-Object Spectroscopy and Radio Surveys

    Studies of radio-source astrophysics and cosmology are based on samples for which typically 10 to 100 redshifts have been measured. Such samples are grossly inadequate given the diversity of radio-source popul...

    Decrease in the space density of quasars at high redshift

    QUASARS have been found up to redshifts of almost five, corresponding to an epoch when the Universe was less than ten per cent of its present age. This leaves a rather short time for the formation of the galax...

    Map** Large-Scale Structure with Radio Sources

    In regions away from the Galactic plane, formal tests indicate an isotropic, random and independent distribution of radio sources on the sky (e.g. [1], although there are strong indications of large-scale anomali...

    Space Densities for Powerful Radio Sources in the Light of Unification

    As radio survey frequency is raised the proportion of flat-spectrum sources increases in bright fiux-limited samples (eg Wall 1994, Aust J Phys 47, 625). Differential source counts show a corresponding broadening...

    The Space Density of High-Redshift Quasars

    An upper limit on the space density of quasars at z > 5 is obtained independent of any optical magnitude limit, from the complete identification of a large sample of flat-spectrum radio sources. This upper lim...

    Interacting and Active IRAS Galaxies

    Radio Source Counts and their Interpretation
