Description:
The Cassini spacecraft has been orbiting Saturn since 2004 returning images of satellites with astrometric resolution as high as few hundreds of meters. The images that were taken by the Narrow Angle Camera (NAC) of Image Science Subsystem (ISS) instrument on board Cassini, were used in this work for the purpose of astrometry. We applied the same method that was previously developed to reduce Cassini NAC images of Mimas and Enceladus. We provide 5240 astrometric positions in right ascension and declination of the satellites: Tethys, Dione, Rhea, Iapetus, and Phoebe, using images that were taken by Cassini NAC between 2004 and 2012. Mean residuals compared to the JPL ephemeris SAT365 are of the order of hundreds of meters with standard deviations of the order of few kilometers. Frequency analysis of the residuals shows the remaining non-modeled effects of satellites on others.

Description:
We present results of a study that combines photometry and astrometry for the open clusters vdB80, vdB85 and vdB130. We apply a model which analyses the proper motion distribution and the stellar density to find the kinematic parameters and stellar membership in the region of the mentioned open clusters. The astrometric data are obtained from UCAC4 catalogue.

Description:
New, updated, and/or revised CCD parallaxes determined with the Strand Astrometric Reflector at the Naval Observatory Flagstaff Station are presented. Included are results for 309 late-type dwarf and subdwarf stars observed over the 30+ years that the program operated. For 124 of the stars, parallax determinations from other investigators have already appeared in the literature and we compare the different results. Also included here are new or updated VI photometry on the Johnson-Kron-Cousins system for all but a few of the faintest targets. Together with 2MASS JHK_s_ near-infrared photometry, a sample of absolute magnitude versus color and color versus color diagrams are constructed. Because large proper motion was a prime criterion for targeting the stars, the majority turn out to be either M-type subdwarfs or late M-type dwarfs. The sample also includes 50 dwarf or subdwarf L-type stars, and four T dwarfs. Possible halo subdwarfs are identified in the sample based on tangential velocity, subluminosity, and spectral type. Residuals from the solutions for parallax and proper motion for several stars show evidence of astrometric perturbations.

Title:
Astrophysical supplements to ASCC-2.5
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The catalogue of stars in the Galactic open cluster areas (CSOCA) is the result of the kinematic (proper motion), photometric and spatial member selection of stars listed in the homogeneous All-sky Compiled Catalogue of 2.5 Million Stars (ASCC-2.5, Cat. <I/280>) within 520 areas with open clusters selected from an on-line release 2.0 of catalogue by Dias et al. (2004, http://www.astro.iag.usp.br/~wilton, Cat. VII/229). The areas represent quadratic fields centered at adopted cluster centers with side lengths of a_cl_[deg]=2*(r_cl_+0.1), where r_cl_ is the determined angular radius of the cluster. For clusters with r_cl_<0.4{deg}, a_cl_=1{deg}. In every cluster area the CSOCA contains the complete list of the ASCC-2.5 stars. The catalog includes accurate J2000 equatorial coordinates, proper motions in the Hipparcos system, BV photometric data in the Johnson system, proper motion, photometric and spatial membership probabilities, and angular distances from the cluster centers for all included stars. If available, trigonometric parallaxes, multiplicity and variability flags from the ASCC-2.5, spectral types (from the ASCC-2.5 or the Tycho-2 Spectral Type Catalog <III/231>), and radial velocities with their errors from the Catalogue of Radial Velocities of Galactic Stars with high precision Astrometric Data (CRVAD, <III/239>) are also given. Since some cluster areas overlap each other some stars are included in the CSOCA several times. The catalogue contains 171319 entries for 149849 stars. Entries are sorted in right ascension J2000 order.

BDKP. III. Parallaxes for 70 ultracool dwarfs
Short Name:
J/ApJ/752/56
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We report parallax measurements for 70 ultracool dwarfs (UCDs) including 11 late-M, 32 L, and 27 T dwarfs. In this sample, 14 M and L dwarfs exhibit low surface gravity features, 6 are close binary systems, and 2 are metal-poor subdwarfs. We combined our new measurements with 114 previously published UCD parallaxes and optical-mid-IR photometry to examine trends in spectral-type/absolute magnitude, and color-color diagrams. We report new polynomial relations between spectral type and M_JHK_. Including resolved L/T transition binaries in the relations, we find no reason to differentiate between a "bright" (unresolved binary) and a "faint" (single source) sample across the L/T boundary. Isolating early T dwarfs, we find that the brightening of T0-T4 sources is prominent in M_J_ where there is a [1.2-1.4] mag difference. A similar yet dampened brightening of [0.3-0.5] mag happens at M_H_ and a plateau or dimming of [-0.2 to -0.3] mag is seen in M_K_. Comparison with evolutionary models that vary gravity, metallicity, and cloud thickness verifies that for L into T dwarfs, decreasing cloud thickness reproduces brown dwarf near-IR color-magnitude diagrams. However we find that a near constant temperature of 1200 +/-100 K along a narrow spectral subtype of T0-T4 is required to account for the brightening and color-magnitude diagram of the L-dwarf/T-dwarf transition. There is a significant population of both L and T dwarfs which are red or potentially "ultra-cloudy" compared to the models, many of which are known to be young indicating a correlation between enhanced photospheric dust and youth. For the low surface gravity or young companion L dwarfs we find that 8 out of 10 are at least [0.2-1.0] mag underluminous in M_JH_and/or M_K_compared to equivalent spectral type objects. We speculate that this is a consequence of increased dust opacity and conclude that low surface gravity L dwarfs require a completely new spectral-type/absolute magnitude polynomial for analysis.

Title:
Binary Star Pop. with Common Proper Motion
Short Name:
J/AZh/97/733
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We describe a homogeneous catalog compilation of common proper motion stars based on GaiaDR2. A preliminary list of all pairs of stars within the radius of 100pc around the Sun with a separation less than a parsec was compiled. Also, a subset of comoving pairs, wide binary stars, was selected. The clusters and systems with multiplicity larger than 2 were excluded from consideration. The resulting catalog contains 10358 pairs of stars. The catalog selectivity function was estimated by comparison with a set of randomly selected field stars and with a model sample obtained by population synthesis. The estimates of the star masses in the catalogued objects, both components of which belong to the main-sequence, show an excess of ''twins'', composed by stars with similar masses. This excess decreases with increasing separation between components. It is shown that such an effect cannot be a consequence of the selectivity function only and does not appear in the model where star formation of similar masses is not artificially preferred. The article is based on the talk presented at the conference ''Astrometry yesterday, today, tomorrow'' (Sternberg Astronomical Institute of the Moscow State University, October 14 - 16, 2019).
69. Blue stragglers and variable stars in M3

Title:
Blue stragglers and variable stars in M3
Short Name:
J/AJ/108/1786
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This paper describes Hubble Space Telescope (HST)/Planetary Camera-I images of the core of the dense globular cluster M3 (NGC 5272). Stellar photometry in the F555W (V) and F785LP (I) bands, with a 1 sigma photometric accuracy of about 0.1mag, has been used to construct color-magnitude diagrams of about 4700 stars above the main-sequence turnoff within r<~1' of the cluster center. We have also analyzed archival HST F336W (U) images of M3 obtained by the Wide Field/Planetary Camera-I Instrument Definition Team. The UVI data are used to identify 28 blue straggler (BS) stars within the central 0.29arcmin^2. The specific frequency of BSs in this region of M3, N(BS)/N(V<V(HB)+2)=0.094+/-0.019, is about a factor of 2-3 higher than that found by Bolte et al. [1993, ApJ, 408, L89] in a recent ground-based study of the same region, but comparable to that seen in the sparse outer parts of the same cluster and in HST observations of the core of the higher density cluster 47 Tuc. The BSs in M3 are slightly more centrally concentrated than red giant branch stars while horizontal branch stars are somewhat less concentrated than red giants. The radial distribution of V-selected subgiant and turnoff stars is well fit by a King model with a core radius r(core)=28"+/-2" (90% confidence limits), which corresponds to 1.4pc. Red giant and horizontal branch stars selected in the ultraviolet data (U<18) have a somewhat more compact distribution (r(core)=22.5"). The HST U data consist of 17 exposures acquired over a span of three days. We have used these data to isolate 40 variable stars for which relative astrometry, brightnesses, colors, and light curves are presented. A Kolmogorov-Smirnov test indicates that, typically, the variability for each star is significant at the 95% level. We identify two variable BS candidates (probably of the SX Phe type) out of a sample of ~25 BSs in which variability could have been detected. Most of the variables are RR Lyrae stars on the horizontal branch. All of them have periods P>~8h.

Description:
The U.S. Naval Observatory is in the process of making new reductions of the Astrographic Catalogue (AC) using a modern reference system, the ACRS, which represents the system of the FK5. The data from the Bordeaux Zone, whose plates are centered between declinations +11 and +17 degrees (eq. 1900), have been analyzed for scale, rotation, tilt, coma, magnitude equation, radial distortion and distortions introduced by the use of reseaux in the Carte du Ciel program. The result is a positional catalog of over 223,000 stars on eq. J2000.0, epoch of observation. Additionally, all stars have been matched with the Tycho Input Catalog (revised); those numbers have been added for additional identification purposes.
