- Description:
- This is a catalog of 12, 25, 60 and 100 micron photometric observations of 43,866 point-like sources detected fortuitiously in the Infrared Astronomical Satellite Pointed Observation program. The main objective was to take advantage of the longer-than-nominal integration time per source to extend the detection threshold relative to that of the Point Source Catalog (PSC); about three-fourths of the Serendipitous Survey Catalog (SSC) sources do not appear in the PSC. From 1813 Pointed Observation fields, the effective sky coverage is 1108 square degrees. Relative to the PSC, the SSC is characterized by: enhanced sensitivity (by a factor of about 4) in all four wavelength bands; excellent reliability in uncrowded fields; uneven sky coverage and completeness; reduced positional accuracy; improved photometric accuracy; much greater depth in crowded fields at the expense of reliability and accuracy. The SSC data processing, the catalog format, and an analysis are given in the Explanatory Supplement to the IRAS Serendipitous Survey Catalog.

- Description:
- Near-infrared imaging observations of IRAS sources with SiO masers were made with the 2.3-m telescope of the Australian National University at Siding Spring Observatory, Australia, on 1997 June 18-23, 1998 June 9-12, and 2000 July 16-19, using the infrared array camera CASPIR. These infrared observations were made in parallel with long-term (1997-1999) SiO maser surveys at Nobeyama. The near-infrared observations were made within a year or so of the SiO detections. The details of the observations, data reduction, and method of identification were described in Deguchi et al. (1998PASJ...50..597D, 2001, Cat. <J/PASJ/53/293>), so they are not repeated here. All of the sources discussed in this paper are IRAS sources with detected SiO masers in the sky region of -10{deg}<l<15{deg} and |b|<3{deg} (Deguchi et al., 2000ApJS..130..351D).

- Description:
- Near-infrared photometric observations in the J-, H-, and K-bands have been made for 86 IRAS sources toward the inner Galactic bulge (|l|<3{deg} and |b|<3{deg}). SiO maser emission has previously been detected in all of these sources; they are well-confirmed, mass-losing, late-type stars having accurate radial velocities derived from SiO observations. For 78 sources, single, unambiguous near-infrared counterparts were found within the errors of the IRAS positions; for the other 8 sources, multiple candidates, candidates with a low confidence level, or candidates overlapped with other stars were found. From the J-, H-, K-band and IRAS 12 and 25{mu}m intensities, we estimated the spectral energy distributions of the sources, and obtained the distances, assuming a constant luminosity. The derived distances of the IRAS/SiO sources are consistent with the current bar model of the Galactic bulge, where the near side of the bar is located in the first quadrant of the galactic longitude. We also reanalyzed the radial velocity shift with distance, and confirmed the presence of streaming motions of stars in the bar-like bulge.

- CDS
- Description:
- Sources resolved by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite in any band (12, 25, 60, or 100 microns) but smaller than eight arcmin in angular extent are to be found in the Small Scale Structure Catalog, also known as the catalog of "small extended sources." The catalog gives the infrared characteristics of 16740 objects including, e.g., galaxies, planetary nebulae and compact H II regions. The catalog lists for each entry and in each band separately: a position accurate to about one arcminute (rms); a flux density accurate to 50% (rms) overall, and better at high signal to noise ratios; a rough indicative size if a point source is present at the same location; and a variety of warning and processing flags. If a detailed shape description, or a more accurate position, flux, or size are needed, these must be determined from the raw detector output. Incompleteness is a complex function of wavelength band, brightness, and location, so the absence of an entry in the SSS Catalog does not necessarily imply the lack of detectable extended emission. Many entries, mostly at 60 and 100 microns, refer only to emission features that are details in larger structures known as Galactic cirrus. Complete documentation, including a description of the catalog format, is contained in the printed version.

- Description:
- Aims. We report the investigation results of the structure and content of a molecular cloud surrounding the source IRAS 05168+3634 (also known as Mol 9). Methods. We present a photometric analysis using the data of J, H, K UKIDSS, [3.6], [4.5]{mu}m Spitzer-IRAC and 3.4, 4.6, 12, 22{mu}m WISE databases. A multi-color criteria was used to identify the candidates of young stellar objects (YSOs) in the molecular cloud; in addition to IRAS 05168+3634, there are four IRAS sources embedded in the same molecular cloud. Color-magnitude diagrams and the K luminosity function (KLF) were used to determine the basic parameters of stellar objects (spectral classes, masses, ages). To study the YSOs with longer wavelength photometry the radiative transfer models were used. Results. Based on color-color and color-magnitude diagrams, we identified a rich population of embedded YSO candidates with infrared excess (Class 0/I and Class II) and their characteristics in a quite large molecular cloud located in a region of 24 arcmin radius. The molecular cloud includes 240 candidates of YSOs within the radii of subregions around five IRAS sources. The local distribution of identified YSOs in the molecular cloud frequently shows elongation and subclustering. The observed young subregions and parental molecular cloud morphologies are similar, especially when only the youngest Class I/0 sources are considered. The color-magnitude diagrams of the subregions suggest a very young stellar population. We construct the KLF of the subregions except for the IRAS 05162+3639 region and it shows unusually low values for {alpha} slope: 0.12-0.21. According to the values of the slopes of the KLFs, the age of the subregions can be estimated at 0.1-3Myr. The spectral energy distributions (SEDs) are constructed for 45 Class I and 75 Class II evolutionary stage YSOs and the received parameters of these YSOs are well correlated with the results obtained by other methods. According to the results of SED fitting tool, the sources IRAS 05184+3635, IRAS 05177+3636, and IRAS 05162+3639 can be classified as Class I evolutionary stage objects. IRAS 05168+3634 and IRAS 05156+3643 can be classified as flat-spectrum objects.

- IR-bright DOGs viewed with Subaru HSC
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/876/132
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We report on the optical properties of infrared (IR)-bright dust-obscured galaxies (DOGs) that are defined as (i-[22])_AB_>=7.0. Because supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in IR-bright DOGs are expected to be rapidly growing in the major-merger scenario, they provide useful clues for understanding the coevolution of SMBHs and their host galaxies. However, the optical properties of IR-bright DOGs remain unclear because the optical emission of a DOG is very faint. By combining ~105deg^2^ images of the optical, near-IR, and mid-IR data obtained from the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) survey, the VISTA VIKING survey, and the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer all-sky survey, respectively, 571 IR-bright DOGs were selected. We found that IR-bright DOGs show a redder (g-z)_AB_ color than do other populations of dusty galaxies, such as ultraluminous IR galaxies (ULIRGs) at a similar redshift, with a significantly large dispersion. Among the selected DOGs, star formation (SF)-dominated DOGs show a relatively red color, while active galactic nucleus (AGN)-dominated DOGs show a rather blue color in optical. This result is consistent with the idea that the relative AGN contribution in the optical emission becomes more significant at a later stage in the major-merger scenario. We discovered eight IR-bright DOGs showing a significant blue excess in blue HSC bands. This blue excess can be interpreted as a leaked AGN emission that is either a directly leaking or a scattered AGN emission, as proposed for some blue-excess Hot DOGs in earlier studies.

- IR-bright MSX sources in the SMC with Spitzer/IRS
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/834/185
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have used the Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) on the Spitzer Space Telescope to observe stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) selected from the Point Source Catalog of the Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX). We concentrate on the dust properties of the oxygen-rich evolved stars. The dust composition has smaller contributions from alumina compared to the Galaxy. This difference may arise from the lower metallicity in the SMC, but it could be a selection effect, as the SMC sample includes more stars that are brighter and thus more massive. The distribution of the SMC stars along the silicate sequence looks more like the Galactic sample of red supergiants than asymptotic giant branch stars (AGBs). While many of the SMC stars are definitively on the AGB, several also show evidence of hot bottom burning. Three of the supergiants show PAH emission at 11.3{mu}m. Two other sources show mixed chemistry, with both carbon-rich and oxygen-rich spectral features. One, MSX SMC 134, may be the first confirmed silicate/carbon star in the SMC. The other, MSX SMC 049, is a candidate post-AGB star. MSX SMC 145, previously considered a candidate OH/IR star, is actually an AGB star with a background galaxy at z=0.16 along the same line of sight. We consider the overall characteristics of all the MSX sources, the most infrared-bright objects in the SMC, in light of the higher sensitivity and resolution of Spitzer, and compare them with the object types expected from the original selection criteria. This population represents what will be seen in more distant galaxies by the upcoming James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Color-color diagrams generated from the IRS spectra and the mid-infrared filters on JWST show how one can separate evolved stars from young stellar objects (YSOs) and distinguish among different classes of YSOs.

- IR colours of MASH planetary nebulae
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/394/1875
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have analysed the near-infrared (NIR) and far-infrared (FIR) colours of MASH I and MASH II (the Macquarie/AAO/Strasbourg surveys, Cat. <V/127>) planetary nebulae (PNe), using data deriving from the Two-Micron All-Sky Survey and Infrared Astronomical Satellite. We were able to identify ~5 per cent of the sources in the NIR, and a slightly larger fraction (~12 per cent) in the FIR. It is concluded that whilst the NIR colours of these nebulae are consistent with those of less evolved (and higher surface brightness) PNe, their FIR colours are markedly different. This disparity is likely to arise as a result of an evolution in dust temperatures, in their line emission characteristics, and in the relative contributions of the 8.6 and 11.3um polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon emission features. A rump of~9 per cent of the detected sources have values log[F(25um)/F(60um)] which are lower than can be explained in terms of normal nebular evolution, however. If these are comparable in nature to the undetected PNe, then this would argue that ~1 in 10 of MASH I and II nebulae may represent galactic H ii regions, Stromgren spheres, symbiotic nebulae or other unrelated categories of source.

- IR counterparts to submm H-ATLAS galaxies
- Short Name:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We use Spitzer-IRAC data to identify near-infrared counterparts to submillimeter galaxies detected with Herschel-SPIRE at 250{mu}m in the Herschel Astrophysical Terahertz Large Area Survey. Using a likelihood ratio analysis we identify 146 reliable IRAC counterparts to 123 SPIRE sources out of the 159 in the survey area. We find that, compared to the field population, the SPIRE counterparts occupy a distinct region of the 3.6 and 4.5{mu}m color-magnitude space, and we use this property to identify 23 further counterparts to 13 SPIRE sources. The IRAC identification rate of 86% is significantly higher than those that have been demonstrated with wide-field ground-based optical and near-IR imaging of Herschel fields. We estimate a false identification rate of 3.6%, corresponding to 4-5 sources. Among the 73 counterparts that are undetected in Sloan Digital Sky Survey, 57 have both 3.6 and 4.5{mu}m coverage. Of these, 43 have [3.6]-[4.5]>0, indicating that they are likely to be at z>~1.4. Thus, ~40% of identified SPIRE galaxies are likely to be high-redshift (z>~1.4) sources. We discuss the statistical properties of the IRAC-identified SPIRE galaxy sample including far-IR luminosities, dust temperatures, star formation rates, and stellar masses. The majority of our detected galaxies have 10^10^-10^11^L_{sun}_ total IR luminosities and are not intense starbursting galaxies as those found at z~2, but they have a factor of 2-3 above average specific star formation rates compared to near-IR selected galaxy samples.

- IRDC G028.23-00.19 NIR polarimetry analysis

- Publisher:

- Description:
- The importance of the magnetic (B) field in the formation of infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) and massive stars is an ongoing topic of investigation. We studied the plane-of-sky B field for one IRDC, G028.23-00.19, to understand the interaction between the field and the cloud. We used near-IR background starlight polarimetry to probe the B field and performed several observational tests to assess the field importance. The polarimetric data, taken with the Mimir instrument, consisted of H-band and K-band observations, totaling 17160 stellar measurements. We traced the plane-of-sky B-field morphology with respect to the sky-projected cloud elongation. We also found the relationship between the estimated B-field strength and gas volume density, and we computed estimates of the normalized mass-to-magnetic flux ratio. The B-field orientation with respect to the cloud did not show a preferred alignment, but it did exhibit a large-scale pattern. The plane-of-sky B-field strengths ranged from 10 to 165{mu}G, and the B-field strength dependence on density followed a power law with an index consistent with 2/3. The mass-to-magnetic flux ratio also increased as a function of density. The relative orientations and relationship between the B field and density imply that the B field was not dynamically important in the formation of the IRDC. The increase in mass-to-flux ratio as a function of density, though, indicates a dynamically important B field. Therefore, it is unclear whether the B field influenced the formation of G28.23. However, it is likely that the presence of the IRDC changed the local B-field morphology.
