Description
Understanding the nature of fermi gamma-RAY sources largely relies upon identifications at other wavebands. The latest fermi gamma-RAY catalog based on 8 years of observations (4FGL) has 37% unidentified sources making the gamma-RAY sky the least understood in all of astronomy. We propose to enhance the 4FGL with a dedicated radio counterpart search in order to identify fermi/ LAT sources from 4FGL and to provide statistically complete information for all 4FGL point sources>-40 DEG. Decl. This will allow for tests for populations of gamma RAY emitters associated with radio quiet AGN, or a population of gamma-RAY objects entirely devoid of radio counterparts. In addition, we will add radio observations to improve positional accuracies from>2 arcsec to MAS of known gamma-RAY counterparts.
