The observations were made over four epochs, each of 3 days in January, May and September 2002 and January 2003. The objective is to obtain a large sample of IDV sources in order to derive reliable statistics of the microarcsecond properties of the source population and the scattering properties of the interstellar mediu publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd date: 2007 type: Article type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: http://eprints.utas.edu.au/4031/1/4031.pdf relation: http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/10556790701596846 identifier: Jauncey, DL and Rickett, BJ and Kedziora-Chudczer, L and Lovell, JEJ and Senkbeil, CE and Shabala, S and Bignall, HE and Pursimo, T and Ojha, R and Dutka, M and Macquart, JP (2007) Microarcsecond scintillation-induced variability (MASIV) survey of the northern sky.
