100 deg2 Mock Galaxy Cone for HI Surveys with the Early SKA

Abstract

We distribute an easy-to-use mock catalog of galaxies with detailed neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) and auxiliary molecular and optical properties. The catalog covers a field of 10-by-10 degrees and a redshift range of z=0-1.2. It contains galaxies with 21cm peak flux densities down to 1uJy and is, within this flux limit, complete for HI masses above 108 solar masses. Five random realisations of the catalog in ASCII format (~4GB/file) and subtables with HI flux limits of 10u Jy (~500MB/file) and 100uJy$ (~30MB/file) can be downloaded at http://ict.icrar.org/store/staff/do/s3sax.
