- Description:
- We present deep near-infrared (NIR) Js-, H-, and Ks-band ISAAC imaging of the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) field of the Hubble Deep Field South (HDF-S). The 2.5'x2.5' high Galactic latitude field was observed with the Very Large Telescope under the best seeing conditions, with integration times amounting to 33.6hr in Js, 32.3hr in H, and 35.6hr in Ks. We reach total AB magnitudes for point sources of 26.8, 26.2, and 26.2, respectively (3sigma), which make it the deepest ground-based NIR observation to date and the deepest Ks-band data in any field. The effective seeing of the co-added images is ~0.45" in Js, ~0.48" in H, and ~0.46" in Ks. Using published WFPC2 optical data, we constructed a Ks-limited multicolor catalog containing 833 sources down to K^tot^_s,AB_<~26, of which 624 have seven-band optical-to-NIR photometry. These data allow us to select normal galaxies from their rest-frame optical properties to high redshift (z<~4). The observations, data reduction, and properties of the final images are discussed, and we address the detection and photometry procedures that were used in making the catalog. In addition, we present deep number counts, color distributions, and photometric redshifts of the HDF-S galaxies.

- Description:
- We present the detection of a large population of ultradiffuse galaxies (UDGs) in two massive galaxy clusters, Abell S1063 at z=0.348 and Abell 2744 at z=0.308, based on F814W and F105W images in the Hubble Frontier Fields Program. We find 47 and 40 UDGs in Abell S1063 and Abell 2744, respectively. Color-magnitude diagrams of the UDGs show that they are mostly located at the faint end of the red sequence. From the comparison with simple stellar population models, we estimate their stellar mass to range from 10^8^ to 10^9^M_{sun}_. Radial number density profiles of the UDGs show a turnover or a flattening in the central region at r<100kpc. We estimate the total masses of the UDGs using the galaxy scaling relations. A majority of the UDGs have total masses M_200_=10^10^-10^11^M_{sun}_, and only a few of them have total masses M_200_=10^11^-10^12^M_{sun}_. The total number of UDGs within the virial radius is estimated to be N(UDG)=770+/-114 for Abell S1063 and N(UDG)=814+/-122 for Abell 2744. Combining these results with data in the literature, we fit the relation between the total numbers of UDGs and the masses of their host systems for M_200_>10^13^M_{sun}_ with a power law, N(UDG)=M_200_^1.05+/-0.09^. These results suggest that a majority of the UDGs have a dwarf galaxy origin, while only a small number of the UDGs are massive L* galaxies that failed to form a normal population of stars.

- Ultra-diffuse & LSB dwarf galaxies in A370 from HFF

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We report the discovery of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in Abell 370 (A370; z=0.375). We find 46 UDGs in A370 from the images of the Hubble Frontier Fields. Most UDGs are low-luminosity red sequence galaxies, while a few of them are blue UDGs. We estimate the abundance of UDGs in A370, N(UDG)=644+/-104. Combining these results with those of Abell S1063 (z=0.348) and Abell 2744 (z=0.308), we derive a mean radial number density profile of UDGs in the three clusters. The number density profiles of UDGs and bright galaxies show a discrepancy in the central region of the clusters: the profile of UDGs shows a flattening as clustercentric distance decreases, while that of bright galaxies shows a continuous increase. This implies that UDGs are prone to disruption in the central region of the clusters. The relation between the abundance of UDGs and virial masses of their host systems is described by a power law with an index of nearly one: N(UDG){propto}M_200_^0.99+/-0.05^ for M_200_>10^13^M_{sun}_. We estimate approximately dynamical masses of UDGs using the fundamental manifold method and find that most UDGs have dwarf-like masses (M_200_<10^11^M_{sun}_). This implies that most UDGs have a dwarf-like origin and a small number of them could be failed L* galaxies. These results suggest that multiple origins may contribute to the formation and evolution of UDGs in massive galaxy clusters.

- Ultra hard X-ray AGNs in the Swift/BAT survey
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/739/57
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have assembled the largest sample of ultra hard X-ray selected (14-195keV) active galactic nucleus (AGN) with host galaxy optical data to date, with 185 nearby (z<0.05), moderate luminosity AGNs from the Swift BAT sample. The BAT AGN host galaxies have intermediate optical colors (u-r and g-r) that are bluer than a comparison sample of inactive galaxies and optically selected AGNs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) which are chosen to have the same stellar mass. Based on morphological classifications from the RC3 and the Galaxy Zoo, the bluer colors of BAT AGNs are mainly due to a higher fraction of mergers and massive spirals than in the comparison samples. BAT AGNs in massive galaxies (logM*>10.5) have a 5-10 times higher rate of spiral morphologies than in SDSS AGNs or inactive galaxies. We also see enhanced far-infrared emission in BAT AGN suggestive of higher levels of star formation compared to the comparison samples. BAT AGNs are preferentially found in the most massive host galaxies with high concentration indexes indicative of large bulge-to-disk ratios and large supermassive black holes. The narrow-line (NL) BAT AGNs have similar intrinsic luminosities as the SDSS NL Seyferts based on measurements of [OIII]5007. There is also a correlation between the stellar mass and X-ray emission. The BAT AGNs in mergers have bluer colors and greater ultra hard X-ray emission compared to the BAT sample as a whole.

- Ultra-steep-spectrum radio sources
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present optical and/or near-IR images of 128 ultra-steep-spectrum radio sources. Roughly half of the objects are identified in the optical images (R<~24), while in the near-IR images, more than 94% are detected at K<~22. The mean K magnitude is 19.26 within a 2" diameter aperture. The distribution of R-K colors indicates that at least one-third of the objects observed have very red colors (R-K>5). The major axes of the identifications in the K band are preferentially oriented along the radio axes, with half of them having compact morphologies. The 22 sources with spectroscopic redshifts and K-band magnitudes follow the K-z relation found from previous radio samples, but with a larger scatter.

- Description:
- We present the results of radio (VLA) and optical (ESO/La Silla) imaging of a sample of 52 radio sources having an ultra-steep radio spectrum with {alpha} mostly steeper than -1.1 at decimetre wavelengths (median {alpha}=-1.22). Radio-optical overlays are presented to an astrometric accuracy of ~1". For 41 of the sources, radio spectral indices are newly determined using unpublished observations made with the 100-m Effelsberg radio telescope. For 14 of the sources identified with relatively brighter optical counterparts, spectroscopic observations were also carried out at La Silla and their redshifts are found to lie in the range 0.4 to 2.6.

- Description:
- An ultraviolet survey of M31 has been carried out during 2017-19 with the UltraViolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) instrument on board the AstroSat Observatory. Here we analyze far- and near-ultraviolet (FUV and NUV) observations from the M31 UVIT survey, which covers a sky area of ~3{deg}x1{deg} with spatial resolution of ~1". The observations included six filter bands in the wavelength range of 120-280nm. The limiting magnitude (AB) in the FUV band (CaF2 filter), which has the largest number of detected sources, is ~23. The primary product of this work is the M31 UVIT point-source catalog containing positions and photometry. In total ~75000 sources were detected at FUV or NUV wavelengths.
