- Description:
- We present the results of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey APOGEE INfrared Spectroscopy of Young Nebulous Clusters program (IN-SYNC) survey of the Orion A molecular cloud. This survey obtained high-resolution near-infrared spectroscopy of about 2700 young pre-main-sequence stars on a ~6{deg} field of view. We have measured accurate stellar parameters (T_eff_, logg, vsini) and extinctions and placed the sources in the Hertzsprung-Russel diagram (HRD). We have also extracted radial velocities for the kinematic characterization of the population. We compare our measurements with literature results to assess the performance and accuracy of the survey. Source extinction shows evidence for dust grains that are larger than those in the diffuse interstellar medium: we estimate an average R_V_=5.5 in the region. Importantly, we find a clear correlation between HRD inferred ages and spectroscopic surface-gravity-inferred ages and between extinction and disk presence; this strongly suggests a real spread of ages larger than a few Myr. Focusing on the young population around NGC 1980/{iota} Ori, which has previously been suggested to be a separate, foreground, older cluster, we confirm its older (~5Myr) age and low A_V_, but considering that its radial velocity distribution is indistinguishable from Orion A's population, we suggest that NGC 1980 is part of Orion A's star formation activity. Based on their stellar parameters and kinematic properties, we identify 383 new candidate members of Orion A, most of which are diskless sources in areas of the region poorly studied by previous works.

- IN-SYNC. VIII. YSOs in NGC 1333, IC 348 and Orion A

- Description:
- In this paper, we address two issues related to primordial disk evolution in three clusters (NGC1333, IC348, and OrionA) observed by the INfrared Spectra of Young Nebulous Clusters (IN-SYNC) project. First, in each cluster, averaged over the spread of age, we investigate how disk lifetime is dependent on stellar mass. The general relation in IC348 and OrionA is that primordial disks around intermediate-mass stars (2-5M_{sun}_) evolve faster than those around loss-mass stars (0.1-1M_{sun}_), which is consistent with previous results. However, considering only low-mass stars, we do not find a significant dependence of disk frequency on stellar mass. These results can help to better constrain theories on gas giant planet formation timescales. Second, in the OrionA molecular cloud, in the mass range of 0.35-0.7M_{sun}_, we provide the most robust evidence to date for disk evolution within a single cluster exhibiting modest age spread. By using surface gravity as an age indicator and employing 4.5{mu}m excess as a primordial disk diagnostic, we observe a trend of decreasing disk frequency for older stars. The detection of intra-cluster disk evolution in NGC1333 and IC348 is tentative, since the slight decrease of disk frequency for older stars is a less than 1{sigma} effect.

- Description:
- The Optical Monitoring Camera (OMC) onboard the High-energy INTEGRAL satellite provides photometry in the V Johnson band. OMC is able to detect optical sources brighter than around V~18, from a previously selected list of potential targets of interest. The first catalogue of variable sources observed by OMC has been developed with observations from October 2002 to February 2010. For each object in the catalogue, the median of the visual magnitude, the magnitude at maximum and minimum brightness in the light curve during the window of observations and the period, when found, are provided.

- Description:
- Galactic open clusters provide an abundant sample of stellar aggregates of various sizes, ages and metal abundances, apt to constitute a template for comparison with star systems in other galaxies. In this paper we present and discuss a standard methodology to synthesize U,B,V fluxes and colours, and apply it to a set of 138 open clusters. Results are compared with previous ones available in the literature. We were able to calibrate a mass-luminosity relation by which we evaluated the mass of ~ 400 open clusters, leading to a well defined present-day mass function. The number-complete sample of galactic open clusters presented in Battinelli & Capuzzo-Dolcetta (1992AJ....103.1596B) is enlarged of a 15%.

- Interferometric CO obs. of 126 CALIFA galaxies
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/846/159
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present interferometric CO observations, made with the Combined Array for Millimeter-wave Astronomy (CARMA) interferometer, of galaxies from the Extragalactic Database for Galaxy Evolution survey (EDGE). These galaxies are selected from the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area (CALIFA) sample, mapped with optical integral field spectroscopy. EDGE provides good-quality CO data (3{sigma} sensitivity {Sigma}_mol_~11M_{sun}/pc^2^ before inclination correction, resolution ~1.4kpc) for 126 galaxies, constituting the largest interferometric CO survey of galaxies in the nearby universe. We describe the survey and data characteristics and products, then present initial science results. We find that the exponential scale lengths of the molecular, stellar, and star-forming disks are approximately equal, and galaxies that are more compact in molecular gas than in stars tend to show signs of interaction. We characterize the molecular-to-stellar ratio as a function of Hubble type and stellar mass and present preliminary results on the resolved relations between the molecular gas, stars, and star-formation rate. We then discuss the dependence of the resolved molecular depletion time on stellar surface density, nebular extinction, and gas metallicity. EDGE provides a key data set to address outstanding topics regarding gas and its role in star formation and galaxy evolution, which will be publicly available on completion of the quality assessment.

- Intermediate-mass stars in IC 1805
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/726/19
- Date:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We report the results of a study of the intermediate- and high-mass stars in the young, rich star-forming complex IC 1805, based on a combination of optical, near-infrared, and mid-infrared photometry, and classification spectra. These data provide the basis for characterizing the masses and ages for stars more massive than ~2M_{sun}_ and enable a study of the frequency and character of circumstellar disks associated with intermediate- and high-mass stars. Optically thick accretion disks among stars with masses 2<M/M_{sun}_<4 are rare (~2% of members) and absent among more massive stars. A larger fraction (~10%) of stars with masses 2<M/M_{sun}_<4 appear to be surrounded by disks that have evolved from the initial optically thick accretion phase. We identify four classes of such disks. These classes are based on spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of excess emission above photospheric levels: disks that are (1) optically thin based on the magnitude of the observed excess emission from 2 to 24um, (2) optically thin in their inner regions (r<20AU) and optically thick in their outer regions, (3) exhibit empty inner regions (r<10AU) and optically thin emission in their outer regions, and (4) exhibit empty inner regions and optically thick outer regions. We discuss, and assess the merits and liabilities of, proposed explanations for disks exhibiting these SED types and suggest additional observations that would test these proposals.

- Internal motions in OB-associations
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/493/2339
- Date:

- Description:
- We study the motions inside 28 OB-associations with the use of Gaia DR2 proper motions. The average velocity dispersion calculated for 28 OB-associations including more than 20 stars with Gaia DR2 proper motion is sigma_v_=4.5km/s. The median virial and stellar masses of OB-associations are 8.9x10^5^ and 8.1x10^3^M_{sun}_, respectively. The median star-formation efficiency in parent giant molecular clouds appears to be epsilon=1.2%. Gaia DR2 proper motions confirm the expansion in the Per OB1, Car OB1 and Sgr OB1 associations found earlier with Gaia DR1 data. We also detect the expansion in Gem OB1, Ori OB1 and Sco OB1 associations which became possible for the first time now when analyzed with Gaia DR2 proper motions. The analysis of the distribution of OB-stars in the Per OB1 association shows the presence of a shell-like structure with the radius of 40 pc. Probably, the expansion of the Per OB1 association started with the velocity greater than the present-day expansion velocity equal to 5.0+/-1.7km/s.

- Description:
- We present the results of optical identification of 248 interplanetary scintillating (IPS) radio sources from the Pushchino Survey (PS) in the area of 0.11sr with the center at RA=10h28m, DE=+41{deg}. All 260 counterparts of IPS radio sources from the 7C and FIRST catalogues, which had been found in Paper I (Cat. <J/A+A/403/555>), were considered. We used USNO-B1.0 catalogue (limiting magnitude m_R_~21) for the optical identification and searched the literature to find optical data for fainter objects. Photometric and spectroscopic observations were conducted on the 1m and 6m telescopes of SAO RAS. Optical magnitudes or deep limits for 22 objects and redshifts for 26 ones have been obtained. In total, we collected optical data for 116 (68 with redshift) counterparts of the PS radio sources. For the subsample of the PS quasars (41 objects) the redshift distribution was compared to those of several other samples of quasars (BRL, 3CRR, MQS, B3-VLA, 7CRS I-III and PKS 0.25Jy) which have complete or nearly complete redshift information.
