- Description:
- We present a catalog of 9888 M, L and T dwarfs detected in the Pan-STARRS1 3{pi} Survey (PS1), covering three-quarters of the sky. Our catalog contains nearly all known objects of spectral types L0-T2 in the PS1 field, with objects as early as M0 and as late as T9, and includes PS1, 2MASS, AllWISE, and Gaia DR1 photometry. We analyze the different types of photometry reported by PS1 and use two types in our catalog in order to maximize both depth and accuracy. Using parallaxes from the literature, we construct empirical SEDs for field ultracool dwarfs spanning 0.5-12{mu}m. We determine typical colors of M0-T9 dwarfs and highlight the distinctive colors of subdwarfs and young objects. We combine astrometry from PS1, 2MASS, and Gaia DR1 to calculate new proper motions for our catalog. We achieve a median precision of 2.9mas/yr, a factor of ~3-10 improvement over previous large catalogs. Our catalog contains proper motions for 2405 M6-T9 dwarfs and includes the largest set of homogeneous proper motions for L and T dwarfs published to date, 406 objects for which there were no previous measurements, and 1176 objects for which we improve upon previous literature values. We analyze the kinematics of ultracool dwarfs in our catalog and find evidence that bluer but otherwise generic late-M and L field dwarfs (i.e., not subdwarfs) tend to have tangential velocities higher than those of typical field objects. With the public release of the PS1 data, this survey will continue to be an essential tool for characterizing the ultracool dwarf population.

- Catalog of M31 SNR candidates

- Description:
- We present a survey of optically emitting supernova remnants (SNRs) in M31 based on H{alpha} and [S II] images in the Local Group Survey. Using these images, we select objects that have [S II]:H{alpha}>0.4 and circular shapes. We identify 156 SNR candidates, of which 76 are newly found objects. We classify these SNR candidates according to two criteria: the SNR progenitor type (Type Ia and core-collapse (CC) SNRs) and the morphological type. Type Ia and CC SNR candidates make up 23% and 77%, respectively, of the total sample. Most of the CC SNR candidates are concentrated in the spiral arms, while the Type Ia SNR candidates are rather distributed over the entire galaxy, including the inner region. The CC SNR candidates are brighter in H{alpha} and [S II] than the Type Ia SNR candidates. We derive a cumulative size distribution of the SNR candidates, finding that the distribution of the candidates with 17<D<50 pc is fitted well by a power law with the power-law index {alpha}=2.53+/-0.04. This indicates that most of the SNR candidates identified in this study appear to be in the Sedov-Taylor phase. The [S II]:H{alpha} distribution of the SNR candidates is bimodal, with peaks at [S II]:H{alpha}~0.4 and~0.9. The properties of these SNR candidates vary little with the galactocentric distance. The H{alpha} and [S II] surface brightnesses show a good correlation with the X-ray luminosity of the SNR candidates that are center-bright.

- Description:
- We present a detailed (U-V) color-magnitude relation (CMR) analysis for three local (z<0.06) clusters of galaxies. From square-degree imaging of the Abell clusters A85, A496, and A754, we select 637 galaxies down to L~0.1L_V_^*^ with spectroscopic membership, which minimizes uncertain field contamination corrections.

- Catalog of Positions of IR Stellar Sources (CPIRSS)
- Short Name:
- I/270
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The U.S. Naval Observatory Catalog of Positions of Infrared Stellar Sources (CPIRSS) was originally compiled in 1994 to provide astrometry at the sub-arcsecond level for many of the point sources in the 1987 version of the IRAS Point Source Catalog (NASA RP-1190). This was accomplished by the identification of IRAS sources with bright optical stars, checked by requiring the color V-[12] (with [12] being a magnitude derived from the IRAS flux) to be consistent with the optical colors or spectral type. Additionally, the K magnitude (2.2 microns) has been estimated. This version, completed in 2001, contains 37,700 stars and includes the Hipparcos and Tycho-2 astrometry and photometry which was unavailable at the time of the original compilation.

- Description:
- This catalog groups the 2442 galaxies making up the sample of distant galaxies prepared by the authors published as 3 papers in 2009: radio data (paper I, table1), photometric data (paper II, table2), and angular sizes (paper III, table 3). The sample of distant (z>0.3) radio galaxies is aimed at application in cosmological tests. It was created using NED, SDSS, and CATS databases, and is assumed to be cleaned from objects with quasar properties.

- Catalog of SDSS compact groups of galaxies

- Publisher:

- Description:
- Compact groups (CGs) of galaxies - relatively poor groups of galaxies in which the typical separations between members is of the order of a galaxy diameter - offer an exceptional laboratory for the study of dense galactic environments with short (<1Gyr) dynamical timescales. We present an objectively defined catalog of CGs in 153deg^2^ of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Early Data Release (<J/AJ/123/567>). To identify CGs, we applied a modified version of Hickson's criteria of 1982 aimed at finding the highest-density CGs and thus reducing the number of chance alignments. Our catalog contains 175 CGs down to a limiting galaxy magnitude of r*=21. The resulting catalog has a median depth of z_med_~0.13, substantially deeper than previous CG catalogs. Since the SDSS will eventually image up to one-quarter of the celestial sphere, we expect our final catalog, based on the completed SDSS, will contain on the order of 5000-10000CGs. This catalog will be useful for conducting studies of the general characteristics of CGs, their environments, and their component galaxies.

- Catalog of source parameters in NICMOS UDF
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/130/1
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- This paper describes the observations and data reduction techniques for the version 2.0 images and catalog of the Near-Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer Ultra Deep Field (NICMOS UDF) Treasury program. All sources discussed in this paper are based on detections in the combined NICMOS F110W and F160W bands only. The NICMOS images are drizzled to 0.09"/pixel and aligned to the Advanced Camera for Surveys UDF F850LP image, which was rebinned to the same pixel scale. These form the NICMOS version 2.0 UDF images. The catalog sources are chosen with a conservative detection limit to avoid the inclusion of numerous spurious sources. The catalog contains 1293 objects in the 144"x144" NICMOS subfield of the UDF. The 5{sigma} signal-to-noise ratio level is an average 0.6" diameter aperture AB magnitude of 27.7 at 1.1 and 1.6{mu}m. The catalog sources, listed in order of right ascension, satisfy a minimum signal-to-noise ratio criterion of 1.4{sigma} in at least seven contiguous pixels of the combined F110W and F160W image. Ten of the sources detected by the source extraction program SExtractor (SE) are not included in the catalog, leaving 1283 of the 1293 detected sources.

- CDS
- Description:
- We study the internal color properties of a morphologically selected sample of spheroidal galaxies taken from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) Early Release Observation program of UGC 10214 ("the Tadpole"). By taking advantage of the unprecedented high resolution of the ACS in this very deep data set, we are able to characterize spheroids at subarcsecond scales. Using the V606 and I814 bands, we construct V-I color maps and extract color gradients for a sample of spheroids at I814<24mag.

- Description:
- We present a new catalog of star cluster candidates in the nearby spiral galaxy M33. It is based on eight existing catalogs wherein we have cross-referenced identifications and endeavored to resolve inconsistencies between them. Our catalog contains 451 candidates, of which 255 are confirmed clusters based on Hubble Space Telescope and high-resolution ground-based imaging. The catalog contains precise cluster positions (right ascension and declination), magnitudes and colors in the UBVRIJHKS filters, metallicities, radial velocities, masses and ages, where available, and galactocentric distances for each cluster.

- Catalog of stars in Sgr dwarf galaxy
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/145/163
- Date:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We measure the spatial density of F turnoff stars in the Sagittarius dwarf tidal stream, from Sloan Digital Sky Survey data, using statistical photometric parallax. We find a set of continuous, consistent parameters that describe the leading Sgr stream's position, direction, and width for 15 stripes in the north Galactic cap, and three stripes in the south Galactic cap. We produce a catalog of stars that has the density characteristics of the dominant leading Sgr tidal stream that can be compared with simulations. We find that the width of the leading (north) tidal tail is consistent with recent triaxial and axisymmetric halo model simulations. The density along the stream is roughly consistent with common disruption models in the north, but possibly not in the south. We explore the possibility that one or more of the dominant Sgr streams has been misidentified, and that one or more of the "bifurcated" pieces is the real Sgr tidal tail, but we do not reach definite conclusions. If two dwarf progenitors are assumed, fits to the planes of the dominant and "bifurcated" tidal tails favor an association of the Sgr dwarf spheroidal galaxy with the dominant southern stream and the "bifurcated" stream in the north. In the north Galactic cap, the best fit Hernquist density profile for the smooth component of the stellar halo is oblate, with a flattening parameter q=0.53, and a scale length of r_0_=6.73. The southern data for both the tidal debris and the smooth component of the stellar halo do not match the model fits to the north, although the stellar halo is still overwhelmingly oblate. Finally, we verify that we can reproduce the parameter fits on the asynchronous MilkyWay@home volunteer computing platform.
