- Description:
- We present a multi-wavelength catalog in the Subaru/XMM-Newton Deep Field (SXDF) as part of the Spitzer Large Area Survey with Hyper-Suprime-Cam (SPLASH). We include the newly acquired optical data from the Hyper-Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program, accompanied by IRAC coverage from the SPLASH survey. All available optical and near-infrared data is homogenized and resampled on a common astrometric reference frame. Source detection is done using a multi-wavelength detection image including the u-band to recover the bluest objects. We measure multi-wavelength photometry and compute photometric redshifts as well as physical properties for ~1.17 million objects over ~4.2deg^2^, with ~800000 objects in the 2.4deg^2^ HSC-Ultra-Deep coverage. Using the available spectroscopic redshifts from various surveys over the range of 0<z<6, we verify the performance of the photometric redshifts and we find a normalized median absolute deviation of 0.023 and outlier fraction of 3.2%. The SPLASH-SXDF catalog is a valuable, publicly available resource, perfectly suited for studying galaxies in the early universe and tracing their evolution through cosmic time.

- Description:
- We use the FUV fluxes measured with the GALEX to study the star formation properties of galaxies collected in the Local Orphan Galaxies catalog (LOG, 2011AstBu..66....1K). Among 517 LOG galaxies having radial velocities V_LG_<3500km/s and Galactic latitudes |b|>15{deg}, 428 objects have been detected in FUV. We briefly discuss some scaling relations between the specific star formation rate (SSFR) and stellar mass, HI-mass, morphology, and surface brightness of galaxies situated in extremely low density regions of the Local Supercluster. Our sample is populated with predominantly late-type, gas-rich objects with the median morphological type of Sdm. Only 5% of LOG galaxies are classified as early types: E, S0, S0/a, however, they systematically differ from normal E and S0 galaxies by lower luminosity and presence of gas and dust. We find that almost all galaxies in our sample have their SSFR below 0.4Gyr^-1^. This limit is also true even for a sample of 260 active star-burst Markarian galaxies situated in the same volume. The existence of such a quasi-Eddington limit for galaxies seems to be a key factor which characterizes the transformation of gas into stars at the current epoch.

- Description:
- We present the results of spectroscopy of 71 objects with steep and ultra-steep spectra (alpha<-0.9, S{prop.to}nu^alpha^) from the "Big Trio" (RATAN-600-VLA-BTA) project, performed with the "Scorpio" spectrograph on the 6-m telescope of the Special Astrophysical Observatory (Russian Academy of Sciences). Redshifts were determined for these objects. We also present several other parameters of the sources, such as their R magnitudes, maximum radio sizes in seconds of arc, flux densities at 500, 1425, and 3940MHz, radio luminosities at 500 and 3940MHz, and morphology. Of the total number of radio galaxies studied, four have redshifts 1<=z<2, three have 2<=z<3, one has 3<=z<4, and one has z=4.51. Thirteen sources have redshifts 0.7<z<1 and 15 have 0.2<z<0.7. Of all the quasars studied, five have redshifts 0.7<z<1, seven have 1<=z<2, four have 2<=z<3, and one has z=3.57. We did not detect any spectral lines for 17 objects.

- Stellar bow shock nebulae spectroscopic obs.

- J/ApJS/251/29
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Arcuate mid-infrared nebulae known as stellar bow shock nebulae (SBNe) have been previously hypothesized to be supported by the strong stellar winds and/or luminosity of massive early-type stars. We present an optical spectroscopic survey of 84 stars identified from mid-infrared images as candidate SBN-supporting stars. Eighty-one of 84 sources, 96%, are O or early-B spectral types. K-band luminosities for a larger sample of 289 stars at the centers of bow shock nebulae are overwhelmingly consistent with OB stars. This affirms both that SBNe are supported by massive stars and that arcuate mid-infrared nebulae are reliable indicators of the presence of a massive star. The radial velocity dispersions of these systems and detections of double-lined systems indicate that at least 27 of the 74 systems with multiple observations (>36%) are candidate multiple-star systems. This rate is consistent with observed multiplicity rates of field OB stars detected with similar radial velocity surveys and lower than, but not inconsistent with, the multiplicity rates of OB stars in clusters and associations.

- Description:
- This catalog contains a field of 2.8 square degrees centered on Kapteyn Selected Area 141 (l=245, b=-86). The center of field was near SAO 166815 (Bok I 174 B) at 01 05 11 -29 33 12 (1950). The covered ranges were 01 01 30 < RA < 01 09 30 and -30 20 < Dec < -28 35 (1950). Photographic V magnitudes and B-V colors of 640 stars were measured in Region I. Data were card punched at the Australian National University on an Univac 1100/82. The coordinates were determined by Kavan U. Ratnatunga from PDS scans of the region on UKSTU Schmidt plate J6657S (taken on 03-Jan-1981) and visual cross identifications were given with the published finding chart. The coordinate calibration used the positions of SAO stars. Estimated rms accuracies for the following measurements are: Visual Magnitude: 0.03 mag B-V colors : 0.05 mag Positions : 1 arc second

- Stellar MFP for massive quiescent z<0.7 galaxies
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/821/101
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We examine the evolution of the relation between stellar mass surface density, velocity dispersion, and half-light radius --the stellar mass fundamental plane (MFP)-- for quiescent galaxies at z<0.6. We measure the local relation from galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the intermediate redshift relation from ~500 quiescent galaxies with stellar masses 10<~log(M*/M_{sun}_)<~11.5. Nearly half of the quiescent galaxies in our intermediate redshift sample are compact. After accounting for important selection and systematic effects, the velocity dispersion distribution of galaxies at intermediate redshifts is similar to that of galaxies in the local universe. Galaxies at z<0.6 appear to be smaller (<~0.1dex) than galaxies in the local sample. The orientation of the stellar MFP is independent of redshift for massive quiescent galaxies at z<0.6 and the zero-point evolves by ~0.04dex. Compact quiescent galaxies fall on the same relation as the extended objects. We confirm that compact quiescent galaxies are the tail of the size and mass distribution of the normal quiescent galaxy population.

- Description:
- Rotation period measurements of stars observed with the Kepler mission have revealed a lack of stars at intermediate rotation periods, accompanied by a decrease of photometric variability. Whether this so-called dearth region is a peculiarity of stars in the Kepler field, or reflects a general manifestation of stellar magnetic activity, is still under debate. The K2 mission has the potential to unravel this mystery by measuring stellar rotation and photometric variability along different fields in the sky. Our goal is to measure stellar rotation periods and photometric variabilities for tens of thousands of K2 stars, located in different fields along the ecliptic plane, to shed light on the relation between stellar rotation and photometric variability. We use Lomb-Scargle periodograms, auto-correlation and wavelet functions to determine consistent rotation periods. Stellar brightness variability is assessed by computing the variability range, R_var_, from the light curve. We further apply Gaussian mixture models to search for bimodality in the rotation period distribution. Combining measurements from all K2 campaigns, we detect rotation periods in 29860 stars. The reliability of these periods was estimated from stars observed more than once. We find that 75-90% of the stars show period deviation smaller than 20% between different campaigns, depending on the peak height threshold in the periodograms. For effective temperatures below 6000K, the variability range shows a local minimum at different periods, consistent with an isochrone age of ~750Myr. Additionally, the rotation period distribution shows evidence for bimodality, although the dearth region in the K2 data is less pronounced compared to the Kepler field. The period at the dip of the bimodal distribution shows good agreement with the period at the local variability minimum. We conclude that the rotation period bimodality is present in different fields of the sky, and is hence a general manifestation of stellar magnetic activity. The reduced variability in the dearth region is interpreted as a cancelation between dark spots and bright faculae. Our results strongly advocate that the role of faculae has been underestimated so far, suggesting a more complex dependence of the brightness variability on the rotation period.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The Table "stars.dat" contains the catalogue of variable stars discovered and/or observed for the 12 low-extinction fields towards the galactic bulge, with the IAG/USP Meridian Circle. The first column of the catalog indicates the star label, formed by a name that identifies the window (see Table 1) and a sequential number that indicates the position of the object in the corresponding database. The following columns display successively the mean right ascension, the mean declination, their standard deviations (in seconds and in arcseconds, respectively) (J2000); the mean magnitude observed (m_{Val}), the difference between the maximum and the minimum magnitude value observed, the number of observations, a estimative for the period, if possible, or a indication "NF" when the stars show periodic characteristics but we aren't able to found a period, or "NC" when the star can be aperiodic or have few observations. The next column have the tentative classification and the last are the remarks about the previous known variables. Finding charts will be available upon request from the authors.

- Description:
- The study of old star catalogues provides important astrometric data. Most of the researches based on the old star catalogues were manuscript published in Europe and from Arabic/Islam. However, the old star catalogues published in East Asia did not get attention. Therefore, among the East Asian star catalogues we focus on a particular catalogue recorded in a Korean almanac. Its catalogue contains 277 stars that are positioned in a region within 10{deg} of the ecliptic plane. The stars in the catalogue were identified using the modern Hipparcos catalogue (Cat. I/239). We identified 274 among 277 stars, which is a rate of 98.9 percent. The catalogue records the epoch of the stars' positions as AD 1396.0. However, by using all of the identified stars we found that the initial epoch of the catalogue is AD 1363.1+/-3.2. In conclusion, the star catalogue was compiled and edited from various older star catalogues. We assume a correlation with the Almagest by Ptolemaios. This study presents newly analysed results from the historically important astronomical data discovered in East Asia. Therefore, this star catalogue will become important data for comparison with the star catalogues published in Europe and from Arabic/Islam.
