- Description:
- We present optical and/or near-IR images of 128 ultra-steep-spectrum radio sources. Roughly half of the objects are identified in the optical images (R<~24), while in the near-IR images, more than 94% are detected at K<~22. The mean K magnitude is 19.26 within a 2" diameter aperture. The distribution of R-K colors indicates that at least one-third of the objects observed have very red colors (R-K>5). The major axes of the identifications in the K band are preferentially oriented along the radio axes, with half of them having compact morphologies. The 22 sources with spectroscopic redshifts and K-band magnitudes follow the K-z relation found from previous radio samples, but with a larger scatter.

- Description:
- Radio sources with ultra-steep spectra (USS; spectral index <~ -1.0) have been found to be excellent tracers of galaxies at redshifts z>~2. The samples are selected from the set of catalogues referenced below, in a range of frequencies from 38 to 408MHz; they are are fainter by a factor of three than the previously well-studied samples of USS sources from 4C. Snapshot observations of sources from these samples have been made with the VLA at 1.5arcsec resolution and are presented in the printed paper. The list of the sources (Appendix A of the paper) includes positions, flux densities and radio structures for a total number of 605 sources derived from these observations.

- Description:
- We present the results of radio (VLA) and optical (ESO/La Silla) imaging of a sample of 52 radio sources having an ultra-steep radio spectrum with {alpha} mostly steeper than -1.1 at decimetre wavelengths (median {alpha}=-1.22). Radio-optical overlays are presented to an astrometric accuracy of ~1". For 41 of the sources, radio spectral indices are newly determined using unpublished observations made with the 100-m Effelsberg radio telescope. For 14 of the sources identified with relatively brighter optical counterparts, spectroscopic observations were also carried out at La Silla and their redshifts are found to lie in the range 0.4 to 2.6.

- Description:
- We analyse optical and radio properties of radio galaxies detected in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The sample of radio sources is selected from the catalogue of Kimball & Ivezic (2008AJ....136..684K) with flux densities at 325, 1400 and 4850MHz, using Westerbork Northern Sky Survey, NRAO VLA Sky Survey and Green Bank 6cm radio surveys and from flux measurements at 74MHz taken from Very Large Array Low-Frequency Sky Survey (Cohen et al. 2006, Cat. VIII/79). We study radio galaxy spectral properties using radio colour-colour diagrams and find that our sample follows a single power law from 74 to 4850MHz.

- Description:
- The catalog contains a list of 412 faint galaxies selected for their apparent ultraviolet excess. The galaxies were selected from a 3-color (UBV) plate taken with the Palomar 48-inch Schmidt telescope. The 14-inch-square plates cover an area of 30 square degrees centered on Kapteyn Selected Area 28. The catalog includes running numbers, coordinates, color codes, magnitude codes, morphologies, diameters, and notes. The catalogued galaxies were selected by eye from the Palomar Schmidt 3-color (UBV) plate PS24771, centered on Kapteyn Selexted Area 28 and taken by Usher under conditions of good seeing and transparency.

- Ultraviolet Extinction in the GALEX Bands. UVEXT
- Short Name:

- Description:
- Interstellar extinction in ultraviolet is the most severe in comparison with optical and infrared wavebands and a precise determination plays an important role in correctly recovering the ultraviolet brightness and colors of objects. By finding the observed bluest colors at the given effective temperature and metallicity range of dwarf stars, stellar intrinsic colors, C_B,V_^0^, C_NUV,B_^0^, C_FUV,B_^0^, and C_FUV,NUV_^0^, are derived according to the stellar parameters from the LAMOST spectroscopic survey and photometric results from the GALEX and APASS surveys. With the derived intrinsic colors, the ultraviolet color excesses are calculated for about 25,000 A- and F-type dwarf stars. Analysis of the color excess ratios yields the extinction law related to the GALEX UV bands: E_NUV,B_/E_B,V_=3.77, E_FUV,B_/E_B,V_=3.39, and E_FUV,NUV_/E_B,V_=-0.38. The results agree very well with previous works in the NUV band and in general with the extinction curve derived by Fitzpatrick (1999PASP..111...63F) for R_V_=3.35.

- Description:
- We have selected spectra of 232 stars from the IUE archives for inclusion in an atlas intended for various uses but tailored especially for the study of stellar winds. The atlas covers the range in spectral types from O3 to F8. The full atlas covers the reduced and normalized high resolution spectra from the IUE long- and short-wavelength spectrographs. Here we discuss the selection of the stars and the data reduction, and we present in velocity units the profiles of lines formed in the stellar winds. The selected lines cover a wide range of ionizations, allowing a comparison of the profiles from different ions in the wind of each star and a comparison of the different wind lines as a function of spectral type and luminosity. We also present the basic data on the program stars to facilitate study of the dependence of wind features on stellar parameters such as luminosity, temperature, escape velocity, and v sin i. We provide an overview of the characteristic behavior of the wind lines in the H-R diagram. The complete spectra are available in digital form through the NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS). We offer a description of the electronic database that is available through the ADS and guidelines for obtaining access to that database.

- Description:
- We present a sample of spectroscopically confirmed quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) with FUV-NUV color (as measured by Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) photometry, FUV band: 1344-1786{AA}, NUV band: 1771-2831{AA}) bluer than canonical QSO templates and than the majority of known QSOs. We analyze their FUV to NIR colors, luminosities, and optical spectra. The sample includes a group of 150 objects at low redshift (z<0.5), and a group of 21 objects with redshift 1.7<z<2.6.

- Description:
- An ultraviolet survey of M31 has been carried out during 2017-19 with the UltraViolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) instrument on board the AstroSat Observatory. Here we analyze far- and near-ultraviolet (FUV and NUV) observations from the M31 UVIT survey, which covers a sky area of ~3{deg}x1{deg} with spatial resolution of ~1". The observations included six filter bands in the wavelength range of 120-280nm. The limiting magnitude (AB) in the FUV band (CaF2 filter), which has the largest number of detected sources, is ~23. The primary product of this work is the M31 UVIT point-source catalog containing positions and photometry. In total ~75000 sources were detected at FUV or NUV wavelengths.
