- Description:
- We present a new edition of the catalogue of the low-mass X-ray binaries in the Galaxy and the Magellanic Clouds. The catalogue contains source name(s), coordinates, finding chart, X-ray luminosity, system parameters, and stellar parameters of the components and other characteristic properties of 187 low-mass X-ray binaries, together with a comprehensive selection of the relevant literature. The aim of this catalogue is to provide the reader with some basic information on the X-ray sources and their counterparts in other wavelength ranges ({gamma}-rays, UV, optical, IR, and radio). Some sources, however, are only tentatively identifed as low-mass X-ray binaries on the basis of their X-ray properties similar to the known low-mass X-ray binaries. Further identification in other wavelength bands is needed to finally determine the nature of these sources. In cases where there is some doubt about the low-mass nature of the X-ray binary this is mentioned. Literature published before 1 October 2006 has, as far as possible, been taken into account.

- Description:
- We present redshifts for 2753 low-redshift (0.05~<z_spec_~<0.5) galaxies with 18<=r<=22 obtained with Hectospec at the Multi-Mirror Telescope (MMT). The observations targeted the XMM-LSS, ELAIS-N1 and DEEP2-3 fields, each of which covers ~1deg^2^. These fields are also part of the recently completed CFHT Large Area U-band Deep Survey (CLAUDS) and on-going Hyper Suprime-Cam deep fields surveys. The efficiency of our technique for selecting low-redshift galaxies is confirmed by the redshift distribution of our sources. In addition to redshifts, these high S/N spectra are used to measure ages, metallicities, and nuclear activity levels. In combination with the photometric catalogue in u, g, r, i, z, y down to 27 AB mag, we are able to study the galaxy population down to stellar masses of ~10^8^M_{sun}_ . This paper presents the observation strategy, the reduction procedure and properties of the galaxy sample. The catalog can be accessed through the webpage of this survey http://mips.as.arizona.edu/~cnaw/Faint_Low_z/.

- Title:
- Catalogue of UVBGRI measurements
- Short Name:
- II/8
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- This compilation contains the published results and the weighted means of the observations in the photoelectric photometric system described by Stebbins and Withford (1943). The six filters were selected to give nearly the same response in each of the six spectral regions for a solar-type star. The mean wavelengths or the filters are: ---------------------------------------------------- Filter U B V G R I Wavelength (nm) 353 422 488 570 719 1030 ---------------------------------------------------- The reduction of this system is made in order that (B+G+R) = 0.

- Description:
- We present a catalogue of high-mass X-ray binaries. The catalogue is an updated version of the catalogue of van Paradijs (1995, Cat. <V/90>). The new high-mass catalogue contains 130 sources, 61 new high-mass X-ray binaries in addition to the 69 sources listed in van Paradijs' catalogue. Most of the new sources are identified to be Be/X-ray binaries. Some sources, however, are only tentatively identified as high-mass X-ray binaries on the basis of a transient character and/or a hard X-ray spectrum. Further identification in other wavelength bands is needed to finally determine the features of these sources. The new low-mass catalogue contains 150 sources, 31 new low-mass X-ray binaries in addition to the 119 sources listed in van Paradijs' catalogue. The aim of this catalogue is to provide the reader with some basic information on the X-ray sources and their counterparts in other wavelength ranges (UV, optical, IR, radio). In cases where there is some doubt about the high or low-mass nature of the X-ray binary this is mentioned. Some doubtful cases have not been included in the catalogue although they had been suggested by some authors to be high-mass X-ray binaries, for example GRS 1915+105 and 1WGA J1958.2+3232.

- Catalogues of Blue Horizontal Branch Stars
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/654/A107
- Date:
- 22 Feb 2022
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Blue horizontal-branch stars evolve from low-mass stars that have completed their main-sequence lifetimes and undergone a helium flash at the end of their red-giant phase. As such, blue horizontal-branch stars are very old objects that can be used as markers in studies of the Galactic structure and formation history. To create a clean sky catalogue of blue horizontal-branch stars, we cross-matched the Gaia data release 2 (DR2) dataset with existing reference catalogues to define selection criteria based on Gaia DR2parameters. Following the publication of Gaia early data release 3 (EDR3), these methods were verified and subsequently applied to this latest release. Previous catalogues of blue horizontal-branch stars were developed using spectral analyses or were restricted to individual globular clusters. The purpose of this catalogue is to identify a set of blue horizontal-branch star candidates that have been selected using photometric and astrometric observations and exhibits a low contamination rate. This has been deemed important as the success of the Gaia mission has changed the way that targets are selected for large-scale spectroscopic surveys, meaning that far fewer spectra will be acquired for blue horizontal-branch stars in the future unless they are specifically targeted. We cross-matched reference blue horizontal-branch datasets with the Gaia DR2 database and defined two sets of selection criteria. Firstly, in Gaia DR2 - colour and absolute G magnitude space, and secondly, in Gaia DR2 - colour and reduced proper motion space. The main-sequence contamination in both subsets of the catalogue was reduced, at the expense of completeness, by concentrating on the Milky Way's Galactic halo, where relatively young main-sequence stars were not expected. The entire catalogue is limited to those stars with no apparent neighbours within 5 arcsec. These methods were verified and subsequently applied to theGaia Early Data Release 3 (EDR3). We present a catalogue, based on Gaia EDR3, of 57377 blue horizontal-branch stars. The Gaia EDR3 parallax was used in selecting 16794 candidates and the proper motions were used to identify a further 40583 candidates.

- CaT in 903 globular clusters
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/426/1475
- Date:

- Description:
- Although the colour distribution of globular clusters in massive galaxies is well known to be bimodal, the spectroscopic metallicity distribution has been measured in only a few galaxies. After redefining the calcium triplet index-metallicity relation, we use our relation to derive the metallicity of 903 globular clusters in 11 early-type galaxies. This is the largest sample of spectroscopic globular cluster metallicities yet assembled. We compare these metallicities with those derived from Lick indices finding good agreement. In six of the eight galaxies with sufficient numbers of high-quality spectra we find bimodality in the spectroscopic metallicity distribution. Our results imply that most massive early-type galaxies have bimodal metallicity as well as colour distributions. This bimodality suggests that most massive early-type galaxies experienced two periods of star formation.

- CCD BVIc photometry of M10 stars
- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- Observations of the globular cluster M10 were taken at the Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO) 0.9 m telescope on the nights of UT dates 1995 May 6 and 9 using BVI filters. All frames were taken using a 2048x2048 pixel CCD with pixels covering 0.68 arcseconds on a side, for a total field of approximately 23.2 arcminutes on a side. The data were calibrated against Stetson (2000PASP..112..925S) standard stars. Additional high-resolution images were taken at the 3.6 m Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) on the night of UT date 1993 April 13 in BI filters. These observations used a 1200x1200 pixel CCD with pixels covering 0.11 arcseconds on a side, for a total field 2.2 arcminutes on a side, roughly centered on the cluster core. These data were calibrated against the KPNO data.
