- Description:
- We present Herschel/PACS 100 and 160{mu}m integrated photometry for the 323 galaxies in the Herschel Reference Survey (HRS), a K-band, volume-limited sample of galaxies in the local Universe. Once combined with the Herschel/SPIRE observations already available, these data make the HRS the largest representative sample of nearby galaxies with homogeneous coverage across the 100-500{mu}m wavelength range. In this paper, we take advantage of this unique data set to investigate the properties and shape of the far-infrared/submillimetre spectral energy distribution in nearby galaxies. We show that, in the stellar mass range covered by the HRS (8<~log(M*/M_{sun}_)<~12), the far-infrared/submillimetre colours are inconsistent with a single modified blackbody having the same dust emissivity index {beta} for all galaxies. In particular, either {beta} decreases or multiple temperature components are needed, when moving from metal-rich/gas-poor to metal-poor/gas-rich galaxies. We thus investigate how the dust temperature and mass obtained from a single modified blackbody depend on the assumptions made on {beta}. We show that, while the correlations between dust temperature, galaxy structure and star formation rate are strongly model dependent, the dust mass scaling relations are much more reliable, and variations of {beta} only change the strength of the observed trends.

- Description:
- of paper: A catalog of 53522 4.85GHz sources between 0 and 75 degrees declination has been generated from observations taken with the NRAO Green Blank 300foot (91m) telescope. The flux limit of the catalog is dependent on declination and ranges from about 40mJy at 0degree to 20mJy at 60degrees. The source positions given in the catalog have a 95% confidence radius of about 50arcsec. Spectral indices have been calculated for 29051 sources which have counterparts in the Texas 365MHz northern sky survey.

- A new 95GHz methanol maser catalog. I.

- Description:
- The Purple Mountain Observatory 13.7m radio telescope has been used to search for 95GHz (8_0_-7_1_A^+^) class I methanol masers toward 1020 Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey (BGPS) sources, leading to 213 detections. We have compared the line width of the methanol and HCO^+^ thermal emission in all of the methanol detections, and on that basis, we find that 205 of the 213 detections are very likely to be masers. This corresponds to an overall detection rate of 95 GHz methanol masers toward our BGPS sample of 20%. Of the 205 detected masers, 144 (70%) are new discoveries. Combining our results with those of previous 95GHz methanol maser searches, a total of 481 95GHz methanol masers are now known. We have compiled a catalog listing the locations and properties of all known 95GHz methanol masers.

- A new IR study of intrinsic and extrinsic S-type stars
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/158/22
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We collect all known intrinsic and extrinsic S-type stars to discuss their infrared properties and find their difference in the infrared using photometric data from the Two Micron All Sky Survey, Wide Field Infrared Survey Explorer, and Infrared Astronomical Satellite missions. Then we look for the diagnosis to extract intrinsic S-type stars from the large unclassified sample. We found that, statistically, intrinsic S-type stars have larger infrared excesses than extrinsic S-type stars in the wavelength region of 1-60 {mu}m due to thicker dusty circumstellar envelopes. We also found that only intrinsic S-type stars occupy the reddest color areas in all of the two-color diagrams we presented. Finally, 172 new intrinsic S-type stars are presented in this paper. This makes the number of known intrinsic S-type stars almost double. In addition, some intrinsic and extrinsic S-type stars have power-law distributions in some two-color diagrams with the wavelength longer than 5 {mu}m. The possible reason for this is also discussed.

- A new photo-z method for quasars in Stripe 82
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/154/269
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a new algorithm to estimate quasar photometric redshifts (photo-zs), by considering the asymmetries in the relative flux distributions of quasars. The relative flux models are built with multivariate Skew-t distributions in the multidimensional space of relative fluxes as a function of redshift and magnitude. For 151392 quasars in the SDSS, we achieve a photo-z accuracy, defined as the fraction of quasars with the difference between the photo-z z_p_ and the spectroscopic redshift z_s_, |{Delta}_z_|=|z_s_-z_p_|/(1+z_s_) within 0.1, of 74%. Combining the WISE W1 and W2 infrared data with the SDSS data, the photo-z accuracy is enhanced to 87%. Using the Pan-STARRS1 or DECaLS photometry with WISE W1 and W2 data, the photo-z accuracies are 79% and 72%, respectively. The prior probabilities as a function of magnitude for quasars, stars, and galaxies are calculated, respectively, based on (1) the quasar luminosity function, (2) the Milky Way synthetic simulation with the Besancon model, and (3) the Bayesian Galaxy Photometric Redshift estimation. The relative fluxes of stars are obtained with the Padova isochrones, and the relative fluxes of galaxies are modeled through galaxy templates. We test our classification method to select quasars using the DECaLS g, r, z, and WISE W1 and W2 photometry. The quasar selection completeness is higher than 70% for a wide redshift range 0.5<z<4.5, and a wide magnitude range 18<r<21.5 mag. Our photo-z regression and classification method has the potential to extend to future surveys. The photo-z code will be publicly available.

- Description:
- We present results of a ^12^COJ=3-2 survey of 125 nearby galaxies obtained with the 10m Heinrich Hertz Telescope, with the aim to characterize the properties of warm and dense molecular gas in a large variety of environments. With an angular resolution of 22", ^12^CO3-2 emission was detected in 114 targets. Based on 61 galaxies observed with equal beam sizes the ^12^CO3-2/1-0 integrated line intensity ratio R_31_ is found to vary from 0.2 to 1.9, with an average value of 0.81. No correlations are found for R_31_ to Hubble-type and far-infrared luminosity. Possible indications for a correlation with inclination angle and the 60um/100um color temperature of the dust are not significant. Higher R_31_ ratios than in "normal" galaxies, hinting at enhanced molecular excitation, may be found in galaxies hosting active galactic nuclei. Even higher average values are determined for galaxies with bars or starbursts, the latter being identified by the ratio of infrared luminosity versus isophotal area, log [(L_FIR_/L_{sun}_)/(D^2^_25_/kpc^2^)]>7.25. (U)LIRGs are found to have the highest averaged R_31_ value. This may be a consequence of particularly vigorous star formation activity, triggered by galaxy interaction and merger events.

- Description:
- Transition disks offer the extraordinary opportunity to look for newly born planets and investigate the early stages of planet formation. In this context we observed the Herbig A5 star MWC 758 with the L'-band vector vortex coronagraph installed in the near infrared camera and spectrograph NIRC2 at the Keck II telescope, with the aim of unveiling the nature of the spiral structure by constraining the presence of planetary companions in the system. Our high-contrast imaging observations show a bright ({Delta}L'=7.0+/-0.3mag) point-like emission, south of MWC 758 at a deprojected separation of ~20au (r=0.111"+/-0.004") from the central star. We also recover the two spiral arms (south-east and north-west), already imaged by previous studies in polarized light, and discover a third one to the south-west of the star. No additional companions were detected in the system down to 5 Jupiter masses beyond 0.6" from the star. We propose that the bright L' band emission could be caused by the presence of an embedded and accreting protoplanet, although the possibility of it being an asymmetric disk feature cannot be excluded. The spiral structure is probably not related to the protoplanet candidate, unless on an inclined and eccentric orbit, and it could be due to one (or more) yet undetected planetary companions at the edge of or outside the spiral pattern. Future observations and additional simulations will be needed to shed light on the true nature of the point-like source and its link with the spiral arms.
