- Description:
- We estimate the galaxy stellar mass function and stellar mass density for star-forming and quiescent galaxies with 0.2<z<4. We construct a large, deep sample of galaxies selected using the new UltraVISTA DR1 data release (Cat. J/A+A/544/A156). Our analysis is based on precise 30-band photometric redshifts. By comparing these photometric redshifts with 10800 spectroscopic redshifts from the zCOSMOS bright (Cat. J/ApJS/172/70) and faint (Lilly et al. in prep) surveys, we find an accuracy of sigma(dz/(1+z))=0.008 at i<22.5 and sigma(dz/(1+z))=0.03 at 1.5<z<4.

- Description:
- We present the first Catalog of Low Ionization Emission Line Galaxies (LINERs or Liners, which is the simplest name, and which we shall adopt in what follows). The Catalog "MCL" (Multifrequency Catalog of Liners), contains 476 entries and contains both broad-band and monochromatic emission data (ranging from radio to X-ray frequencies) of colors, and other data compiled from the literature and various data bases, as indicated in the references. Most of the galaxies can be considered "pure" Liners on the basis of the Veilleux & Osterbrock (1987ApJS...63..295V) classification as suggested by Ho, Filippenko, & Sargent (1997ApJS..112..315H). However, a considerable number of transition (Liners-H II or Liners-Starburst) objects are also included. One of the open questions, is whether Liners should be considered as a class of galaxies (like Seyfert galaxies for instance) or rather, as an heterogeneous group of objects. We believe the study of Liners as a group is very interesting, precisely because they very likely represent a transition between non-thermal and starburst activity, and probably also between "active" and "non- active" galaxies. This catalog may be used as a basis for statistical research. A preliminary discussion of the main statistical properties of Liners, in the range from radio to X-ray frequencies, is given here.

- Multiphotometry of M31 outer halo globular clusters
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/623/A65
- Date:

- Description:
- In this paper, we present photometry of 53 globular clusters (GCs) in the M31 outer halo, including the GALEX FUV and NUV, SDSS ugriz, 15 intermediate-band filters of BATC, and 2MASS JHKs bands. By comparing the multicolour photometry with stellar population synthesis models, we determine the metallicities, ages, and masses for these GCs, aiming to probe the merging/accretion history of M31. We find no clear trend of metallicity and mass with the de-projected radius. The halo GCs with age younger than ~8Gyr are mostly located at the de-projected radii around 100kpc, but this may be due to a selection effect. We also find that the halo GCs have consistent metallicities with their spatially-associated substructures, which provides further evidence of the physical association between them. Both the disk and halo GCs in M31 show a bimodal luminosity distribution. However, we should emphasize that there are more faint halo GCs which are not being seen in the disk. There are more faint halo GCs than the disk ones, and these faint GCs constitute the fainter part in the luminosity function. The bimodal luminosity function of the halo GCs may reflect different origin or evolution environment in their original hosts. The M31 halo GCs includes one intermediate metallicity group (-1.5<[Fe/H]<-0.4) and one metal-poor group ([Fe/H]<-1.5), while the disk GCs have one metal-rich group more. There are considerable differences between the halo GCs in M31 and the Milky Way (MW). The total number of M31 GCs is approximately three times more numerous than that of the MW, however, M31 has about six times the number of halo GCs in the MW. Compared to M31 halo GCs, the Galactic halo ones are mostly metal-poor. Both the numerous halo GCs and the higher-metallicity component are suggestive of an active merger history of M31.

- Multiple M dwarf stars with Robo-AO and Gaia DR2
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/159/139
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We analyze observations from Autonomous laser-adaptive-optics for few-meter-class telescopes (Robo-AO)'s field M dwarf survey taken on the 2.1m Kitt Peak telescope and perform a multiplicity comparison with Gaia DR2. Through its laser-guided, automated system, the Robo-AO instrument has yielded the largest adaptive optics M dwarf multiplicity survey to date. After developing an interface to visually identify and locate stellar companions, we selected 11 low-significance Robo-AO detections for follow-up on the Keck II telescope using NIRC2. In the Robo-AO survey we find 553 candidate companions within 4" around 534 stars out of 5566 unique targets, most of which are new discoveries. Using a position cross-match with DR2 on all targets, we assess the binary recoverability of Gaia DR2 and compare the properties of multiples resolved by both Robo-AO and Gaia. The catalog of nearby M dwarf systems and their basic properties presented here can assist other surveys which observe these stars, such as the NASA Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission.

- Multiple systems:relative positions and residuals
- Short Name:

- Description:
- This paper draws attention to the class of resolved triple stars with moderate ratios of inner and outer periods (possibly in a mean motion resonance) and nearly circular, mutually aligned orbits. Moreover, stars in the inner pair are twins with almost identical masses, while the mass sum of the inner pair is comparable to the mass of the outer component. Such systems could be formed either sequentially (inside-out) by disk fragmentation with subsequent accretion and migration, or by a cascade hierarchical fragmentation of a rotating cloud. Orbits of the outer and inner subsystems are computed or updated in four such hierarchies: LHS 1070 (GJ 2005, periods 77.6 and 17.25 years), HIP 9497 (80 and 14.4 years), HIP 25240 (1200 and 47.0 years), and HIP 78842 (131 and 10.5 years).

- Multiplicity in transiting planet-host stars

- Description:
- In the exoplanetary era, the Kepler spacecraft is causing a revolution by discovering thousands of new planet candidates. However, a follow-up program is needed to reject false candidates and fully characterize the bona-fide exoplanets. Our main aims are to 1./ detect and analyze close companions inside the typical Kepler point spread function (PSF) to study whether they are the responsible for the dimming found in Kepler light curves, 2./ study the change in the stellar and planetary parameters caused by an unresolved object, 3./ help validate the Kepler objects of interest (KOI) that do not have any object inside the Kepler PSF, and 4./ study the multiplicity rate of planet-host candidates. Such a large sample of observed planet-host candidates allows us to derive statistics for close (visual or bounded) companions to the harboring star.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- Supernova "Refsdal", multiply imaged by cluster MACS1149.5+2223, represents a rare opportunity to make a true blind test of model predictions in extragalactic astronomy, on a timescale that is short compared to a human lifetime. In order to take advantage of this event, we produced seven gravitational lens models with five independent methods, based on Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Hubble Frontier Field images, along with extensive spectroscopic follow-up observations by HST, the Very Large and the Keck Telescopes. We compare the model predictions and show that they agree reasonably well with the measured time delays and magnification ratios between the known images, even though these quantities were not used as input. This agreement is encouraging, considering that the models only provide statistical uncertainties, and do not include additional sources of uncertainties such as structure along the line of sight, cosmology, and the mass sheet degeneracy. We then present the model predictions for the other appearances of supernova "Refsdal". A future image will reach its peak in the first half of 2016, while another image appeared between 1994 and 2004. The past image would have been too faint to be detected in existing archival images. The future image should be approximately one-third as bright as the brightest known image (i.e., H_AB_~25.7mag at peak and H_AB_~26.7mag six months before peak), and thus detectable in single-orbit HST images. We will find out soon whether our predictions are correct.

- Multiwavelength analysis of NGC 2362
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/646/269
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a multi-wavelength analysis of the young open cluster NGC 2362; UBVRcIc CCD photometric observations, together with available data in the Chandra database, near-infrared data from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS), and recently published H{alpha} spectroscopy were used to get information about the evolutionary stage of the cluster and the main physical properties of its stellar content. Cluster membership is estimated for every individual star by means of zero-age main sequence (ZAMS) and isochrone fitting. The cluster is confirmed to host a rich population of pre-main-sequence (PMS) objects and to contain a large number of X-ray-emitting stars, which reach from the PMS members of GK spectral type up to the most luminous OB main-sequence (MS) members. The PMS cluster members show no significant age spread, and the comparison to both PMS and post-MS isochrones suggests an homogeneous age for all cluster members. The analysis allows us to assess the validity of currently used PMS evolutionary models and supports the suggestion of a well-defined positive correlation of the X-ray emission from PMS stars with their bolometric luminosity. Clear differences are found between the X-ray activity properties of MS and PMS cluster members, both in the relation between X-ray luminosity and bolometric luminosity, and in spectral properties as well.

- Description:
- We present the Spitzer-IRAC/MIPS Extragalactic survey (SIMES) in the South Ecliptic Pole field. The large area covered (7.7deg^2^), together with one of the lowest Galactic cirrus emissions in the entire sky and a very extensive coverage by Spitzer, Herschel, Akari, and GALEX, make the SIMES field ideal for extragalactic studies. The elongated geometry of the SIMES area (~4:1), allowing for significant cosmic variance reduction, further improves the quality of statistical studies in this field. Here we present the reduction and photometric measurements of the Spitzer/IRAC data. The survey reaches depths of 1.93 and 1.75{mu}Jy (1{sigma}) at 3.6 and 4.5{mu}m, respectively. We discuss the multiwavelength IRAC-based catalog, completed with optical, mid-, and far-IR observations. We detect 341000 sources with F_3.6um_>=3{sigma}. Of these, 10% have an associated 24{mu}m counterpart, while 2.7% have an associated SPIRE source. We release the catalog through the NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive. Two scientific applications of these IRAC data are presented in this paper. First, we compute integral number counts at 3.6{mu}m. Second, we use the [3.6]-[4.5] color index to identify galaxy clusters at z>1.3. We select 27 clusters in the full area, a result consistent with previous studies at similar depth.
