- Description:
- For the catalog, we compiled the abundances of 28 chemical elements: alpha-elements (O, Mg, Si, Ca, Ti), carbon, iron-peak elements(Sc, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn), slow and rapid neutron-capture elements (Sr, Y, Zr, Mo, Ba, La, Ce, Nd, Eu, Dy) and three odd-Z elements(Na, Al, K) in the stars of 69 globular clusters. The data are taken from 101 papers published from 1986 to 2018. The abundances of chemical elements in stars of the clusters in almost all the used papers are determined from high-resolution spectra obtained mainly for the atmospheres of red giants. The spectra are analyzed with the local thermodynamic equilibrium approximation.

- Description:
- The Milky Way system and the Andromeda galaxy experienced radically different evolutionary histories. Nevertheless, it is found that these two galaxies ended up with globular cluster systems in which individual clusters have indistinguishable distributions of half-light radii. Furthermore, globulars in both M31 and the Galaxy are found to have radii that are independent of their luminosities. In this respect, globular clusters differ drastically from early-type galaxies in which half-light radius and luminosity are tightly correlated. Metal-rich globular clusters in M31 occupy a slightly larger volume than do those in the Galaxy. The specific globular cluster frequency in the Andromeda galaxy is found to be significantly higher than it is in the Milky Way system. The present discussion is based on the 107 Galactic globular clusters, and 200 putative globulars in M31, for which UBV photometry was available.

- Description:
- The properties of the population of Galactic supernova remnants (SNRs) are essential to our understanding of the dynamics of the interstellar medium (ISM) in the Milky Way. However, the completeness of the catalog of Galactic SNRs is expected to be only ~30%, with on order 700 SNRs yet to be detected. Deep interferometric radio continuum surveys of the Galactic plane help in rectifying this apparent deficiency by identifying low surface brightness SNRs and compact SNRs that have not been detected in previous surveys. However, SNRs are routinely confused with HII regions, which can have similar radio morphologies. Radio spectral index, polarization, and emission at mid-infrared (MIR) wavelengths can help distinguish between SNRs and HII regions. We aim to identify SNR candidates using continuum images from the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array GLObal view of the STAR formation in the Milky Way (GLOSTAR) survey. GLOSTAR is a C-band (4-8GHz) radio wavelength survey of the Galactic plane covering 358{deg}>=l<=60{deg}, |b|<=1{deg}. The continuum images from this survey, which resulted from observations with the most compact configuration of the array, have an angular resolution of 18''. We searched for SNRs in these images to identify known SNRs, previously identified SNR candidates, and new SNR candidates. We study these objects in MIR surveys and the GLOSTAR polarization data to classify their emission as thermal or nonthermal. We identify 157 SNR candidates, of which 80 are new. Polarization measurements provide evidence of nonthermal emission from 9 of these candidates. We find that two previously identified candidates are filaments. We also detect emission from 91 of the 94 known SNRs in the survey region. Four of these are reclassified as HII regions following detection in MIR surveys. The better sensitivity and resolution of the GLOSTAR data have led to the identification of 157 SNR candidates, along with the reclassification of several misidentified objects. We show that the polarization measurements can identify nonthermal emission, despite the diffuse Galactic synchrotron emission. These results underscore the importance of higher resolution and higher sensitivity radio continuum data in identifying and confirming SNRs.

- Description:
- Radio continuum surveys of the Galactic plane are an excellent way to identify different source populations such as planetary nebulae, HII regions, and radio stars and characterize their statistical properties. The Global View of Star Formation in the Milky Way (GLOSTAR) survey will study the star formation in the Galactic plane between -2{deg}<l<85{deg} and |b|<1{deg} with unprecedented sensitivity in both flux density (~40uJy/beam) and range of angular scales (~1.5" to the largest radio structures in the Galaxy). In this paper we present the first results obtained from a radio continuum map of a 16-square-degree-sized region of the Galactic plane centered on l=32{deg} and b=0{deg} (28{deg}<l<36{deg} and |b|<1{deg}). This map has a resolution of 18" and a sensitivity of 60-150uJy/beam. We present data acquired in 40 hours of observations with the VLA in D-configuration. Two 1GHz wide sub-bands were observed simultaneously and they were centered at 4.7 and 6.9GHz. These data were calibrated and imaged using the Obit software package. The source extraction was performed using the BLOBCAT software package and verified through a combination of visual inspection and cross-matching with other radio and mid-infrared surveys. The final catalog consists of 1575 discrete radio sources and 27 large scale structures (including W43 and W44). By crossmatching with other catalogs and calculating the spectral indices (S({nu}){prop.to}{nu}^{alpha}^), we have classified 231 continuum sources as HII regions, 37 as ionization fronts, and 46 as planetary nebulae. The longitude and latitude distribution and negative spectral indices are all consistent with the vast majority of the unclassified sources being extragalactic background sources. We present a catalog of 1575 radio continuum sources and discuss their physical properties, emission nature, and relation to previously reported data. These first GLOSTAR results have increased the number of reliable HII regions in this part of the Galaxy by a factor of four.

- gr photometry of stars in Kim 2

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We report the discovery of a new, low-luminosity star cluster in the outer halo of the Milky Way. High-quality gr photometry is presented, from which a color-magnitude diagram is constructed, and estimates of age, [Fe/H], [{alpha}/Fe], and distance are derived. The star cluster, which we designate as Kim 2, lies at a heliocentric distance of ~105kpc. With a half-light radius of ~12.8pc and ellipticity of {epsilon}~0.12, it shares the properties of outer halo globular clusters, except for at higher metallicity ([Fe/H]~-1.0) and lower luminosity (M_v_~-1.5). These parameters are similar to those for the globular cluster AM 4, which is considered to be associated with the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy. We find evidence of dynamical mass segregation and the presence of extra-tidal stars that suggests that Kim 2 is most likely a star cluster. Spectroscopic observations for radial-velocity membership and chemical abundance measurements are needed to further understand the nature of the object.

- Description:
- The line of sight through the Galactic plane between longitudes l=37.83{deg} and 42.50{deg} allows for the separation of Galactic Ring Survey molecular clouds into those that fall within the spiral arms and those located in the interarm regions. By matching these clouds in both position and velocity with dense clumps detected in the mm continuum by the Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey, we are able to look for changes in the clump formation efficiency (CFE), the ratio of clump to cloud mass, with Galactic environment. We find no evidence of any difference in the CFE between the interarm and spiral-arm regions along this line of sight. This is further evidence that, outside the Galactic Centre region, the large-scale structures of the Galaxy play little part in changing the dense, potentially star-forming structures within molecular clouds.

- Description:
- To construct a catalogue of oxygen-rich (M) asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in the halo, complementing the catalogues of carbon-rich (C) stars, previous lists of Miras and SRa semi-regulars located in the northern hemisphere are merged and cleaned of various defects. After putting aside known C stars, characteristics such as colours and periods indicate that most of the remaining objects are M stars. Distances are obtained through the period-luminosity relation. By considering their position in the sky, stars lying at |Z|>5kpc are confirmed to be in majority in the Sgr tidal arms. The M stars are more numerous than C ones. Our distance scale is supported by two cool variables located in the Pal 4 globular cluster. Along the Sgr arms, there is reasonable agreement on distances of our objects with recent RR Lyrae distances. A few stars may be as distant as 150kpc, with possibly four at the trailing arm apocentre, and two in the A16 sub-structure, angularly close to two C stars. Ninety radial velocities are collected from Gaia and other sources. A catalogue with 417 M pulsating AGB stars is provided. This catalogue contains about 260 stars in the halo with |Z|>5kpc. Their Ks magnitudes range from 8 up to 13. For comparison, the catalogue also provides about 150 stars in the disc having 5<Ks<8.

- Description:
- HaloSat is a small satellite (CubeSat) designed to map soft X-ray oxygen line emission across the sky in order to constrain the mass and spatial distribution of hot gas in the Milky Way. The goal of HaloSat is to help determine if hot gas gravitationally bound to individual galaxies makes a significant contribution to the cosmological baryon budget. HaloSat was deployed from the International Space Station in 2018 July and began routine science operations in 2018 October. We describe the goals and design of the mission, the on-orbit performance of the science instrument, and initial observations.

- H{alpha} emission line sources from IPHAS
- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present the first catalogue of point-source H{alpha} emission line objects selected from the INT/WFC Photometric H{alpha} Survey of the Northern Galactic Plane (IPHAS). In total, our catalogue contains 4853 point sources that exhibit strong photometric evidence for H{alpha} emission. The catalogue is a conservative subset of the emitters present in IPHAS and it is likely that there are many more H{alpha} emitters present in the area of the Galactic Plane that IPHAS observes. Our selection criteria are designed to be conservative (rather than complete) in order to avoid a significant number of false positives in the catalogue. In line with this, we find that of the ~300 catalogue sources for which we have preliminary spectroscopic follow-up observations, more than 95% are confirmed as genuine emission-line sources.

- Description:
- The catalogue contains 4174 stars in the Northern Milky Way, in the range 32{deg}<l<214{deg}, -10{deg}<b<+10{deg}, having the H line in emission. The HBH list (main list, Schmidt camera Hamburg-Bergedorf, red plates taken in the years 1964-70) contains 1979 objects partly identical with those in other lists of H emission-line stars given in the literature up till 1994. Non-stellar objects (e.g. HII regions, planetary nebulae) have not been included in this catalogue except for those objects containing central stars which have the H line in emission, and also for some doubtful cases.
