- Description:
- In this work we present a new catalogue of cosmic filaments obtained from the latest Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) public data. In order to detect filaments, we implement a version of the Subspace-Constrained Mean-Shift algorithm that is boosted by machine learning techniques. This allows us to detect cosmic filaments as one-dimensional maxima in the galaxy density distribution. Our filament catalogue uses the cosmological sample of SDSS, including Data Release 16, and therefore inherits its sky footprint (aside from small border effects) and redshift coverage. In particular, this means that, taking advantage of the quasar sample, our filament reconstruction covers redshifts up to z=2.2, making it one of the deepest filament reconstructions to our knowledge. We follow a tomographic approach and slice the galaxy data in 269 shells at different redshift. The reconstruction algorithm is applied to 2D spherical maps. The catalogue provides the position and uncertainty of each detection for each redshift slice. The quality of our detections, which we assess with several metrics, show improvement with respect to previous public catalogues obtained with similar methods. We also detect a highly significant correlation between our filament catalogue and galaxy cluster catalogues built from microwave observations of the Planck Satellite and the Atacama Cosmology Telescope.

- Description:
- In this paper, we present a new catalogue of chemically peculiar (CP) stars obtained by compiling publications in which abundances of metals are provided. Our catalogue includes 428 stars for which the data were obtained through spectroscopic observations. Most of them (416) are AmFm, HgMn, and ApBp stars. We have used this compilation to proceed to a statistical overview of the abundance anomalies versus the physical parameters of the stars. Spearman's rank correlation test has been applied, and a significant number of correlations of abundance peculiarities with respect to effective temperature, surface gravity, and rotation velocity have been found. Four interesting cases are discussed in details: the Mn peculiarities in HgMn stars, the Ca correlation with respect to effective temperature in AmFm stars, the case of helium and iron in ApBp stars. Furthermore, we checked for ApBp stars using Anderson-Darling test whether the belonging to a multiple system is a determinant parameter or not for abundance peculiarities.

- Description:
- This catalog contains a compilation of measurements of binary stars discovered by Paul Couteau between 1951 and 1993. For each star, it contains a reference number to identify the star in the catalog, the Cou number, the visual magnitudes of the components, positions for 1900, 1950, and 2000, the identification of the star in the BD or in the Carte du Ciel, the magnitude from that catalog, remarks such as the proper motion, a system to which the binary belongs or its position with respect to a neighboring BD star and for many stars, the spectral type. For each observation, the data given are the date, position angle, separation, telescope size, number of observations, and the observer. Sometimes the magnitudes estimated by the observer are also given. The present description DOES NOT replace the documents referenced above. It just provides a short format description of the files making up this catalogue.

- Catalogue of eclipsing binaries in the SMC
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/331/609
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The catalogue lists 167 eclipsing binary stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud detected in the database of time-series photometry for 400000 SMC stars acquired by the Microlensing Observations in Astrophysics (MOA) project during 1997. Coordinates, ephemerides, magnitudes and light curves are presented. Thirty-five systems are new detections. The limiting magnitude is about 17.5. The majority of periods lie within the range 0.4 to 20 days; 6 systems are possibly eccentric while 14 are probably or certainly so. The majority of the newly-identified systems lie in the outer regions of the SMC.

- Description:
- A new catalogue of 6330 eclipsing variable stars is presented. The catalogue was developed from the General Catalogue of Variable Stars (GCVS) and its textual remarks by including recently published information about classification of 843 systems and making corresponding corrections of GCVS data. The catalogue represents the largest list of eclipsing binaries classified from observations.

- Catalogue of extended objects in Magellanic Clouds
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/389/678
- Date:

- Description:
- We update the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), Bridge and Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) catalogues of extended objects that were constructed by members of our group from 1995 to 2000. In addition to the rich subsequent literature for the previous classes, we now also include HI shells and supershells. A total of 9305 objects were cross-identified, while our previous catalogues amounted to 7900 entries, an increase of ~12 per cent. We present the results in subcatalogues containing 1445 emission nebulae, 3740 star clusters, 3326 associations and 794 HI shells and supershells. Angular and apparent size distributions of the extended objects are analysed. We conclude that the objects, in general, appear to respond to tidal effects arising from the LMC, SMC and Bridge. Number-density profiles extracted along directions parallel and perpendicular to the LMC bar, can be described by two exponential-discs. A single exponential-disc fits the equivalent SMC profiles. Interestingly, when angular-averaged number-densities of most of the extended objects are considered, the profiles of both Clouds do not follow an exponential-disc. Rather, they are best described by a tidally truncated, core/halo profile, despite the fact that the Clouds are clearly disturbed discs. On the other hand, the older star clusters taken isolately, distribute as an exponential disc. The present catalogue is an important tool for the unambiguous identification of previous objects in current CCD surveys and to establish new findings.

- Catalogue of faint local radio AGN
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/479/807

- Description:
- We present a catalogue of 2210 local (z<0.1) galaxies that contain faint active galactic nuclei (AGN). We select these objects by identifying galaxies that exhibit a significant excess in their radio luminosities, compared to what is expected from the observed levels of star formation activity in these systems. This is achieved by comparing the optical (spectroscopic) star formation rate (SFR) to the 1.4GHz luminosity measured from the Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty centimeters survey. The majority of the AGN identified in this study are fainter than those in previous work, such as in the Best and Heckman (2012, Cat. J/MNRAS/421/1569) catalogue. We show that these faint AGN make a non-negligible contribution to the radio luminosity function at low luminosities (below 10^22.5^W/Hz), and host ~13 per cent of the local radio luminosity budget. Their host galaxies are predominantly high stellar-mass systems (with a median stellar mass of 1011 M), are found across a range of environments (but typically in denser environments than star-forming galaxies) and have early-type morphologies. This study demonstrates a general technique to identify AGN in galaxy populations where reliable optical SFRs can be extracted using spectro-photometry and where radio data are also available so that a radio excess can be measured. Our results also demonstrate that it is unsafe to infer SFRs from radio emission alone, even if bright AGN have been excluded from a sample, since there is a significant population of faint radio AGN that may contaminate the radio-derived SFRs.
