- Description:
- The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission measured light from stars in ~75% of the sky throughout its 2yr primary mission, resulting in millions of TESS 30-minute-cadence light curves to analyze in the search for transiting exoplanets. To search this vast data trove for transit signals, we aim to provide an approach that both is computationally efficient and produces highly performant predictions. This approach minimizes the required human search effort. We present a convolutional neural network, which we train to identify planetary transit signals and dismiss false positives. To make a prediction for a given light curve, our network requires no prior transit parameters identified using other methods. Our network performs inference on a TESS 30-minute-cadence light curve in ~5ms on a single GPU, enabling large-scale archival searches. We present 181 new planet candidates identified by our network, which pass subsequent human vetting designed to rule out false positives. Our neural network model is additionally provided as open-source code for public use and extension.

- New SDSS and Washington photometry in Segue 3

- Description:
- We present new SDSS and Washington photometry of the young outer-halo stellar system Segue 3. Combined with archival VI-observations, our most consistent results yield Z=0.006+/-0.001, log(Age)=9.42+/-0.08, (m-M)_0_=17.35+/-0.08, and E(B-V)=0.09+/-0.01, with a high binary fraction of 0.39+/-0.05 derived using the Padova models. We confirm that mass-segregation has occurred, supporting the hypothesis that this cluster is being tidally disrupted. A three-parameter King model yields a cluster radius of r_cl_=0.017{deg}+/-0.007{deg}, a core radius of r_c_=0.003{deg}+/-0.001{deg}, and a tidal radius of r_t_=0.04{deg}+/-0.02{deg}. A comparison of Padova and Dartmouth model-grids indicates that the cluster is not significantly {alpha}-enhanced, with a mean [Fe/H]=-0.55_-0.12_^+0.15^dex, and a population age of only 2.6+/-0.4Gyr. We rule out a statistically significant age spread at the main-sequence turnoff because of a narrow subgiant branch, and discuss the role of stellar rotation and cluster age, using Dartmouth and Geneva models: approximately 70% of the Seg 3 stars at or below the main-sequence turnoff have enhanced rotation. Our results for Segue 3 indicate that it is younger and more metal-rich than all previous studies have reported to date. From colors involving Washington C and SDSS-u filters, we identify several giants and a possible blue straggler for future follow-up spectroscopic studies, and we produce spectral energy distributions of previously known members and potential Segue 3 sources with Washington (CT_1_), Sloan (ugri), and VI-filters. Segue 3 shares the characteristics of unusual stellar systems that have likely been stripped from external dwarf galaxies as they are being accreted by the Milky Way, or that have been formed during such an event. Its youth, metallicity, and location are all inconsistent with Segue 3 being a cluster native to the Milky Way.

- 90 new SNIa from SDSS DR7
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Using a method to discover and classify supernovae (SNe) in galaxy spectra, we find 90 Type Ia SNe (SNe Ia) and 10 Type II SNe among the ~700000 galaxy spectra in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7 that have star-formation histories (SFHs) derived with the VErsatile SPectral Analysis code (VESPA). We use the SN Ia sample to measure SN Ia rates per unit stellar mass.

- New spectral types for Tycho2 stars
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We compare the spectroscopic and trigonometric parallaxes of common stars from the Tycho-2 Spectral Type and Hipparcos Catalogues. This comparison has revealed that the distance estimations for the overwhelming majority of stars by both methods yield very similar results. However, there is a small fraction of stars for which the distance estimates differences.

- New Taurus members from stellar to planetary masses
- Short Name:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a large sample of new members of the Taurus star-forming region that extend from stellar to planetary masses. To identify candidate members at substellar masses, we have used color-magnitude diagrams and proper motions measured with several wide-field optical and infrared (IR) surveys. At stellar masses, we have considered the candidate members that were found in a recent analysis of high-precision astrometry from the Gaia mission. Using new and archival spectra, we have measured spectral types and assessed membership for these 161 candidates, 79 of which are classified as new members. Our updated census of Taurus now contains 519 known members. According to Gaia data, this census should be nearly complete for spectral types earlier than M6-M7 at A_J_<1. For a large field encompassing ~72% of the known members, the census should be complete for K<15.7 at A_J_<1.5, which corresponds to ~5-13 M_Jup_ for ages of 1-10 Myr based on theoretical evolutionary models. Our survey has doubled the number of known members at >=M9 and has uncovered the faintest known member in M_K_, which should have a mass of ~3-10 M_Jup_ for ages of 1-10 Myr. We have used mid-IR photometry from the Spitzer Space Telescope and the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer to determine whether the new members exhibit excess emission that would indicate the presence of circumstellar disks. The updated disk fraction for Taurus is ~0.7 at =<M3.5 and ~0.4 at >M3.5.

- Description:
- Colour distributions have been obtained for 36 E and 4 SA0 galaxies of the northern Local Supercluster, observed in 2000/2001 at the 120cm telescope of Observatoire de Haute-Provence: field 11.6'x11.6'; scale 0.68"/pix. The radial profiles of the V magnitude and the colours U-B, B-V, V-R and V-I, were measured in greatly enlarged radial ranges, as compared to previous work, and with an improved accuracy. The colour system is the one of Cousins.

- Description:
- We try to identify ultra-cool dwarfs from the seventh Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS DR7) with SDSS i-z and r-z colors. We also obtain proper motion data from SDSS, 2MASS, and UKIDSS and improve spectral typing from SDSS and 2MASS photometric colors.

- Short Name:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We developed an efficient method to search for late-type subdwarfs. We carried out a search cross-matching SDSS, 2MASS, and UKIDSS with VO tools. We considered different photometric and proper motion criteria for our selection. We identified 100 late-type subdwarf candidates. We obtained our own low-resolution optical spectra for 71 of our candidates and retrieved Sloan spectra for 30 of them (9 in common to the 71). We classified 92 candidates based on optical spectra. Our new discoveries include 49 subdwarfs, 25 extreme subdwarfs, six ultrasubdwarfs, one subdwarf/extreme subdwarf, and two dwarfs/subdwarfs. In addition, we discovered three early-L subdwarfs. We double the numbers of cool subdwarfs and derived a surface density of late-type subdwarfs.

- Description:
- Since 2004, we have been engaged in a long-term observing programme to monitor young stellar objects (YSOs) in the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC). We have collected about 2000 frames in V, R and I broad-band filters on more than 200 nights distributed over five consecutive observing seasons. The high-quality and time-extended photometric data give us an opportunity to address various phenomena associated with young stars.

- Description:
- 621 new variable stars have been detected on plates obtained with the Schmidt telescopes of the Mount Palomar Observatory (1968) and of the European Southern Observatory (1976-1980). The astrometric measurements (ESO-CERN) and the photometrical ones (CDCA) which have followed the detection the variable stars (Observatoire de Lyon) have led to determine the parameters {alpha}, {delta}, l, b, R(Max), R(Min), {delta}m. So we notice that: - 379 variable stars have an amplitude of variation in magnitude between 0.5 and 2.0 (delm/N histogram). -The number of variable stars strongly decreases towards the great amplitudes. -The surface density of variable stars by square degree in this central galactic direction increases from 2 to 21 in the explored field of 5.5degx5.5deg size.
