- Description:
- Photographic observations of XX century contained numerous and varied information about all objects and events of the Universe fixed on the astronegatives. The original and interesting observations of small bodies of the Solar system in previous years can be selected and used for various scientific tasks. Existing databases and online services can help make such selection easily and quickly. The observations of chronologically earlier oppositions, photometric evaluation of brightness for long periods of time allow refining the orbits of asteroids and identifying various non-stationarities. Photographic observations of the Northern Sky Survey project (FON project) were used for global search for small bodies of Solar system. About 2000 photographic plates of Kitab part of the FON project were made using Double Wide Angle Astrograph at the Kitab observatory (Uzbekistan) during 1981-1989. Early, using that digitized observations the catalogue of equatorial coordinates and stellar magnitudes for more than 13 million stars and galaxies up to B=17.5m was compiled. At present, we analyzed all processing results for the search of asteroids and compiled the catalogue of equatorial coordinates and stellar magnitudes of them. As a result more than 4500 asteroids and comets with visual magnitude from 7.7m to 17.5m were identified now. All positions of asteroids were compared with ephemeris. A preliminary analysis of O-C differences was carried out. New and interesting are that the moments of official discovery of some identified asteroids much later than their moments of Kitab's observation. In addition, some of them are the earliest observations of these asteroids in the world among all known observations. More than 915 observations of such asteroids have been found on the plates of Kitab part of the FON project.

- Description:
- Every Sun-like star will eventually evolve into a red giant, a transition which can profoundly affect the evolution of a surrounding planetary system. The timescale of dynamical planet evolution and orbital decay has important implications for planetary habitability, as well as post-main-sequence star and planet interaction, evolution, and internal structure. Here, we investigate these effects by estimating planet occurrence around 2476 low-luminosity red giant branch (LLRGB) stars observed by the NASA K2 mission. We measure stellar masses and radii using asteroseismology, with median random uncertainties of 3.7% in mass and 2.2% in radius. We compare this planet population to the known population of planets around dwarf Sun-like stars, accounting for detection efficiency differences between the stellar populations. We find that 0.49%+/-0.28% of LLRGB stars host planets larger than Jupiter with orbital periods less than 10 days, tentatively higher than main-sequence stars hosting similar planets (0.15%+/-0.06%). Our results suggest that the effects of stellar evolution on the occurrence of close-in planets larger than Jupiter are not significant until stars have begun ascending substantially up the red giant branch (>~5-6 R_{sun}_).

- Description:
- This machine-readable version of the Astrographic Catalogue (AC), zones +01 to +31 degrees is the result of the determination of mean values for position and magnitude at a mean epoch of observation for each unique star in the original catalogs. The zones considered here (Oxford, Paris, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Algiers [partial]) contained 1,870,976 individual measures, from which the catalog of mean data for 1,025,208 stars was derived. Further analysis by Dr. D.W. Dunham and at the ADC yielded an additional 27897 apparently duplicate entries, which were eliminated to produce the final catalog. The estimated mean standard errors for positional and magnitude data are 0.4 arcsec in each coordinate and 0.4 mag, respectively. Data in this version include <m(pg)>, <Epoch>, <RA> at mean epoch, <DEC> at mean epoch. The mean values are unweighted. No star identifications are provided; hence the user must select stars from the catalog and then identify them in other catalogs or on charts using the equatorial coordinates.

- Description:
- In addition to their great astrophysical interest, quasars represent quasi-ideal reference objects in the celestial sphere with, a priori, a lack of significant proper motion. Since the fourth release of the Large Quasar Astrometric Catalogue (LQAC-4), a large number of quasars have been discovered, in particular those coming from the DR14Q release of the SDSS. With the advent of the Gaia Data Release 2 (DR2), it is now also possible to fold in extremely accurate quasar positions. Following the same procedure as in the previous releases of the LQAC, our aim is to compile the large majority of the recorded quasars, with their best estimated coordinates and substantial information about their physical properties such as the redshift, multi-bands apparent, and absolute magnitudes. Emphasis is given to the results of the cross-matches with the Gaia DR2 catalogue, which considerably increases the positional accuracy. New quasars from the SDSS DR14Q release were cross-matched with the precedent LQAC-4 compilation with a 1" search radius, which leads to 149084 objects not present in the previous LQAC-4 release. Another cross-match was done with the Gaia DR2 catalogue, which enables us to considerably improve the positioning of these objects. For the first time, parallaxes and proper motions from the DR2, when available, are added to our compilation. Furthermore, a cross-identification of the LQAC-5 with the AllWISE survey gives additional mid-infrared information for an important percentage of objects. Our final catalogue, namely the LQAC-5, contains 592 809 quasars. This represents roughly a 34% increase with respect to the number of objects recorded in the LQAC-4. Among them, 398 697 objects were found in common with the Gaia DR2, within a 1" search radius. That corresponds to 67.26% of the whole population of the compilation. The LQAC-5 delivers a nearly complete catalogue of spectroscopically confirmed quasars (including a small proportion of 14126 compact AGN's) to the astronomical community, with the aim of giving their best equatorial coordinates with respect to the ICRF2 and with exhaustive additional information. For more than 50% of the sample, these coordinates are extracted from the very recent Gaia DR2.

- Description:
- A catalogue of equatorial coordinates and magnitudes for 2162 asteroids and 11 comets was compiled based on the results of processing of digitized photographic observations of the northern sky performed in 1981-1985. The positions were compared with the JPL DE431 ephemeris. The mean (O-C)_RA,DE_ values for all positions obtained in this comparison are -0.08" and 0.04", and their root-mean-square errors are 0.70" and 0.64" in {alpha} and {delta}, respectively. It was found that the observations of 54 asteroids predate their discoveries, and the observations of four of them are the earliest known for these asteroids.

- Description:
- We aim to determine periods for bright stars in the Auriga field that are otherwise not easily accessible for ground-based photometry. Continuous photometry with up to three BRITE satellites was obtained for 12 targets and subjected to a period search. Contemporaneous high-resolution optical spectroscopy with STELLA was used to obtain radial velocities through cross correlation with template spectra as well as to determine astrophysical parameters through a comparison with model spectra.

- Description:
- NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) presents us with an unprecedented volume of space-based photometric observations that must be analyzed in an efficient and unbiased manner. With at least ~1000000 new light curves generated every month from full-frame images alone, automated planet candidate identification has become an attractive alternative to human vetting. Here we present a deep learning model capable of performing triage and vetting on TESS candidates. Our model is modified from an existing neural network designed to automatically classify Kepler candidates, and is the first neural network to be trained and tested on real TESS data. In triage mode, our model can distinguish transit-like signals (planet candidates and eclipsing binaries) from stellar variability and instrumental noise with an average precision (the weighted mean of precisions over all classification thresholds) of 97.0% and an accuracy of 97.4%. In vetting mode, the model is trained to identify only planet candidates with the help of newly added scientific domain knowledge, and achieves an average precision of 69.3% and an accuracy of 97.8%. We apply our model on new data from Sector 6, and present 288 new signals that received the highest scores in triage and vetting and were also identified as planet candidates by human vetters. We also provide a homogeneously classified set of TESS candidates suitable for future training.

- Description:
- The 4 yr light curves of 156717 stars observed with NASA's Kepler mission are analyzed using the autoregressive planet search (ARPS) methodology described by Caceres et al. (2019AJ....158...57C). The three stages of processing are maximum-likelihood ARIMA modeling of the light curves to reduce stellar brightness variations, constructing the transit comb filter periodogram to identify transit-like periodic dips in the ARIMA residuals, and Random Forest classification trained on Kepler team confirmed planets using several dozen features from the analysis. Orbital periods between 0.2 and 100 days are examined. The result is a recovery of 76% of confirmed planets, 97% when period and transit depth constraints are added. The classifier is then applied to the full Kepler data set; 1004 previously noticed and 97 new stars have light-curve criteria consistent with the confirmed planets, after subjective vetting removes clear false alarms and false positive cases. The 97 Kepler ARPS candidate transits mostly have periods of P<10 days; many are ultrashort period hot planets with radii <1% of the host star. Extensive tabular and graphical output from the ARPS time series analysis is provided to assist in other research relating to the Kepler sample.
