Description:
The Pi GHz Sky Survey (PiGSS) is a key project of the Allen Telescope Array (ATA). PiGSS is a 3.1 GHz survey of radio continuum emission in the extragalactic sky with an emphasis on synoptic observations that measure the static and time-variable properties of the sky. During the 2.5 year campaign, PiGSS will twice observe ~250,000 radio sources in the 10,000 deg<sup>2</sup> region of the sky with b > 30 degrees to an rms sensitivity of ~1 mJy. Additionally, sub-regions of the sky will be observed multiple times to characterize variability on timescales of days to years. Presented here are the results from observations of a 10 deg<sup>2</sup> region in the Bootes constellation overlapping the NOAO Deep Wide Field Survey field. The PiGSS image was constructed from 75 daily observations distributed over a 4 month period and has an rms flux density between 200 and 250 µJy. This represents a deeper image by a factor of 4-8 than the authors will achieve over the entire 10,000 deg<sup>2</sup>. In this table, they provide flux densities, source sizes, and spectral indices for the 425 sources detected in the image. They identify ~100 new flat-spectrum radio sources, and project that, when completed, PiGSS will identify 104 flat-spectrum sources. In their paper the authors identify one source that is a possible transient radio source. This survey provides new limits on faint radio transients and variables with characteristic durations of months. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2011 based on electronic versions of Tables 2 and 4 from the reference paper which were obtained from the ApJ web site. The HEASARC changed the sign of the values of the last parameter in Table 4 (herein called spectral_index_3_error) from negative to positive. In March 2013, after receiving a clarification from Steve Croft, the HEASARC corrected the names of the 4 parameters describing the source sizes (to reflect the fact that they were diameters nor radii) to major_axis, minor_axis, fit_major_axis and fit_minor_axis.

Allen Telescope Array Pi GHz Sky Survey (PiGSS) Deep Fields Source Catalog
Short Name:

Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
This table contains results from a total of 459 repeated 3.1-GHz radio continuum observations (of which 379 were used in a search for transient sources) of the ELAIS-N1, Coma, Lockman Hole, and NOAO Deep Wide Field Survey (NDWFS) fields as part of the Allen Telescope Array (ATA) Pi GHz Sky Survey (PiGSS). The observations were taken in 2 simultaneous 100-MHz wide bands centered at 3.04 and 3.14 GHz approximately once per day between 2009 May and 2011 April. Each image covers 11.8 square degrees and has 100" FWHM resolution. Deep images for each of the four fields have rms noise between 180 and 310 µJy (µJy), and the corresponding catalogs contain ~200 sources in each field. Typically 40-50 of these sources are detected in each single-epoch image. This represents one of the shortest cadence, largest area, multi-epoch surveys undertaken at these frequencies. The authors compared the catalogs generated from the combined images to those from individual epochs, and from monthly averages, as well as to legacy surveys. They undertook a search for transients, with particular emphasis on excluding false positive sources,but find no confirmed transients, defined here as sources that can be shown to have varied by at least a factor of 10. However, the authors found one source that brightened in a single-epoch image to at least six times the upper limit from the corresponding deep image. They also found a source associated with a z = 0.6 quasar which appears to have brightened by a factor ~3 in one of their deep images, when compared to catalogs from legacy surveys. The authors place new upper limits on the number of transients brighter than 10 mJy: fewer than 0.08 transients deg<sup>-2</sup> with characteristic timescales of months to years; fewer than 0.02 deg<sup>-2</sup> with timescales of months; and fewer than 0.009 deg<sup>-2</sup> with timescales of days. In this study, the authors accepted only as real sources those that are independently detected in both frequencies in at least one epoch (with a position matching tolerance of 50", corresponding to a false match probability of <2%). Their threshold of ~ 4.2 sigma for detection in a single image corresponds to a threshold of ~ 5.9 sigma in the dual-image catalog. They generated catalogs for the deep fields, consisting only of sources detected at both frequencies, and these are contained in the present HEASARC table. Notice that the authors previously published a list of 425 radio sources in the NDWFS field in the constellation of Bootes in an earlier paper (Bower et al 2010, ApJ, 725, 1792, available as the HEASARC database table PIGSSBOOFD). In the 2013 paper, they have performed a partial re-analysis of these data to conform with the updated analysis techniques used on the other three fields. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2013 based on electronic versions of Tables 2, 3, 4 and 5 (source lists for each of the 4 fields, ELAIS N1, Lockman, Coma, and NDWFS, respectively) from the reference paper which were obtained from the ApJ web site. The HEASARC has created a new parameter called field_name which identifies in which table/field the source can be found. Thus, to select only sources in the Lockman Hole field, the user should select field_name= 'Lockman'. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

Allen Telescope Array Twenty-cm Survey (ATATS) Source Catalog
Short Name:
ATATS
Date:

Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
This table contains the source catalog from the Allen Telescope Array Twenty-centimeter Survey (ATATS), a multi-epoch (12 visits), 690 deg<sup>2</sup> radio image and catalog at 1.4 GHz. The survey is designed to detect rare, very bright transients as well as to verify the capabilities of the ATA to form large mosaics. The combined image using data from all 12 ATATS epochs has an rms noise sigma = 3.94 mJy beam<sup>-1</sup> and a dynamic range of 180, with a circular beam of 150 arcseconds FWHM. It contains 4408 sources to a limiting sensitivity of 5 sigma = 20 mJy beam<sup>-1</sup>. The authors compare the catalog generated from this 12-epoch combined image to the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS), a legacy survey at the same frequency, and find that they can measure source positions to better than ~ 20 arcseconds. For sources above the ATATS completeness limit, the median flux density is 97% of the median value for matched NVSS sources, indicative of an accurate overall flux calibration. The authors examine the effects of source confusion due to the effects of differing resolution between the ATATS and NVSS on their ability to compare flux densities. They detect no transients at flux densities greater than 40 mJy in comparison with NVSS and place a 2 sigma upper limit of 0.004 deg<sup>-2</sup> on the transient rate for such sources. These results suggest that the >~ 1 Jy transients reported by Matsumara et al. (2009, AJ, 138, 787) may not be true transients, but rather variable sources at their flux density threshold. This table was created by the HEASARC in September 2010 based on the electronic version of Table 2 from the reference paper which was obtained from the ApJ web site.

CDS
Description:
Results of the first two years of observations using the All Sky Automated Survey prototype camera are presented. More than 140000 stars in 50 Selected Fields covering 300 square degrees were monitored each clear night in the I-band resulting in the ASAS Photometric I-band Catalog containing over 5*10^7^ individual measurements. Nightly monitoring of over 100 standard stars confirms that most of our data remains within {sigma}_I_=0.03mag of the standard I system. Search for the stars varying on the time scales longer than a day revealed about 3800 variable stars (mostly irregular, pulsating and binaries) brighter than 13mag. Only 630 of them are known or suspected variables included in the GCVS (Kholopov 1985, Cat. <II/214>). Among the stars brighter than I~7.5 (which are saturated on our frames) we have found about 50 variables (12 are in the GCVS, 6 others in the Hipparcos catalog (Cat. <I/239>). Because of the large volume of data we present here only selected tables and light curves, but the complete ASAS Catalog of Variable Stars (currently divided into Periodic and Miscellaneous sections) and all photometric data are available on the Internet http://www.astrouw.edu.pl/~gp/asas/asas.html or http://archive.princeton.edu/~asas/

Description:
Results of the first two months of observations using the All Sky Survey prototype camera are presented. More than 45000 stars in 24 Selected Fields covering 140 square degrees were monitored a few times per night resulting in the I-band catalog containing 10^7^ individual measurements. Period search revealed 126 variable stars brighter than 13mag with periods less than 20d. Only 30 of them are known variable stars included in the General Catalogue of Variable Stars (<II/214>). The other 90 objects are newly detected variable stars - mainly eclipsing binaries (75%) and pulsating stars (17%). We estimate that completeness of the current catalogs of variable stars is smaller than 50% already for the stars brighter than 9mag. The catalog is accessible over the WWW: http://www.astrouw.edu.pl/~gp/asas/asas.html

All-Sky Automatic Survey (ASAS) Photometry of ROSAT All-Sky Survey Sources
Short Name:

Date:

Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
Photometric data from the All-Sky Automatic Survey (ASAS) - South (Declination less than 29 degrees) Survey have been used for the identification of bright stars located near the sources from the ROSAT All Sky Survey Bright Source Catalog (RASSBSC). In total, 6,028 stars brighter than 12.5 magnitude in the I- or the V-bands have been selected and analyzed for periodicity. Altogether, 2,302 variable stars have been found with periods ranging from 0.137 days to 193 days. Most of these stars have X-ray emission of coronal origin, but there are a few cataclysmic binaries and early type stars with colliding winds. Whenever it was possible, the authors collected data available in the literature so as to verify the periods and to classify variable objects. The catalog includes 1,936 stars (1,233 new) considered to be variable due to presence of spots (rotationally variable), 127 detached eclipsing binary stars (33 new), 124 contact binaries (11 new), 96 eclipsing stars with deformed components (19 new), 13 ellipsoidal variables (4 new), 5 miscellaneous variables and one pulsating RR Lyr type star (blended with an eclipsing binary). More than 70% of the new variable stars have amplitudes smaller than 0.1 magnitudes, but for the star ASAS 063656-0521.0 the authors have found the largest known amplitude of brightness variations due to the presence of spots (up to Delta V = 0.8 magnitudes). This table was created by the HEASARC in May 2018, based on &lt;a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/AcA/62/67"&gt;CDS Catalog J/AcA/62/67&lt;/a&gt; files catalog.dat and remarks.dat.

Title:
All-Sky Catalog of Faint EUV Sources
Short Name:
EUV/Faint
Date:

Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
The All-Sky Catalog of Faint Extreme-Ultraviolet (EUV) Sources is a list of 534 objects detected jointly in the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE) (100 Angstrom (AA) band) All-Sky Survey and in the ROSAT X-ray Telescope (XRT) (0.25 keV band) All-Sky Survey. The joint selection criterion within a 1.5 arcminute positional tolerance permitted the use of a low count rate threshold in each survey. This low threshold was roughly 60% of the threshold used in the previous EUVE all-sky surveys, and 166 of the objects listed in this table were new EUV sources, appearing neither in the Second EUVE Source Catalog nor in the ROSAT Wide Field Camera Second Catalog. Preliminary identifications are offered for 105 of the 166 sources not previously reported in any EUV catalog: by far the most numerous (81) of the identifications are late-type (F-M) stars, while 18 are other stellar types, only 5 are white dwarfs, and none are extragalactic. The paucity of WDs and extragalactic objects may be explained by a strong horizon effect wherein interstellar absorption strongly limits the effective new-source search volume, and, thereby, selectively favors low-luminosity nearby sources over more luminous but distant objects. Notice that, with the adopted 1.5 arcminute acceptance criterion, about 50 spurious detections are expected. This Browse table was created in July 2003 based on CDS table IX/35/faint.dat.

Title:
All-sky catalog of solar-type dwarfs
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/463/4210
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Most future surveys designed to discover transiting exoplanets, including TESS and PLATO, will target bright (V<13) and nearby solar-type stars having a spectral type later than F5. In order to enhance the probability of identifying transits, these surveys must cover a very large area on the sky, because of the intrinsically low areal density of bright targets. Unfortunately, no existing catalog of stellar parameters is both deep and wide enough to provide a homogeneous input list. As the first Gaia data release exploitable for this purpose is expected to be released not earlier than late 2017, we have devised an improved reduced-proper-motion method to discriminate late field dwarfs and giants by combining UCAC4 proper motions with APASS DR6 photometry, and relying on RAVEDR4 as an external calibrator. The output, named UCAC4-RPM, is a publicly-available, complete all-sky catalog of solar-type dwarfs down to V<13.5, plus an extension to logg>3.0 subgiants. The relatively low amount of contamination (defined as the fraction of false positives; <30%) also makes UCAC4-RPM a useful tool for the past and ongoing ground-based transit surveys, which need to discard candidate signals originating from early-type or giant stars. As an application, we show how UCAC4-RPM may support the preparation of the TESS (that will map almost the entire sky) input catalog and the input catalog of PLATO, planned to survey more than half of the whole sky with exquisite photometric precision.

All-Sky Compiled Catalogue of 2.5 million stars

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The All-Sky Compiled Catalogue of 2501313 stars (ASCC-2.5) with the limiting magnitude V=12-14 is a result of a merging of star lists from present day large high-precision catalogues from space (Hipparcos- Tycho family catalogues: Hipparcos main catalogue including Multiple System Annex [I/239], Tycho-1 [I/239], Tycho-2 [I/259], ACT-RC [I/246], TRC [I/250]) and ground-based (PPM-N [I/146], PPM-S [I/193], PPM-add [I/208], CMC11 [I/256]) observations and reduction to standard systems of corresponding stellar data. The data from the Tycho-2 Spectral Type Catalog [III/231], and the 2MASS All-Sky Catalog of Point Sources [II/246] are added. The basic stellar data presented in the ASCC-2.5 are the equatorial coordinates (J2000, epoch 1991.25), proper motions in the Hipparcos system, B and/or V stellar magnitudes in the Johnson system. Additionally, for some stars we give trigonometric parallaxes, spectral classes in the MK or HD system, multiplicity and variability flags, Hipparcos, Tycho-2, HD, DM designations. Equatorial coordinates and their standard errors were taken from the source catalogues in accordance with the priority: Hipparcos [I/239/hip_main], Tycho-2 [I/259], Tycho-1 [I/239/tyc_main], CMC11 [I/256], PPM [I/146,I/193,I/208]. Proper motions from the source catalogues were compared with Hipparcos data.The compiled proper motions in the Hipparcos system and their standard errors were computed as the weighted means. The weights were set in accordance with the proper motion errors listed for individual stars in the source catalogues. Trigonometric parallaxes are taken from the Hipparcos and Tycho-1 catalogues. Stellar B, V magnitudes were determined on the basis of the ground- based photometric data taken from CMC11, Hipparcos, as well as space BT, VT from Tycho-1, Tycho-2. Magnitudes from the PPM catalogue were used if no other photometric data were available. Tycho data were transformed to the Johnson system via: V = VT - 0.09 (B-V)T + dV, (B-V) = 0.850 (B-V)T + d(B-V), i.e. using the recommendations from the Introduction to the Tycho catalogue and including additional corrections dV and d(B-V). These additional corrections were determined by comparison with ground-based data in the Johnson system. These corrections depend non-linearly on colour and reach 0.02 and 0.04 mag, respectively. Infrared stellar magnitudes J, H, K_s_ and their errors were copied from the 2MASS catalogue. Spectral classes in the MK or HD systems were taken from Hipparcos, CMC11, PPM, and Tycho-2 Spectral Type catalogues. Multiplicity and variability flags were taken from Tycho-1, Tycho-2, Hipparcos, CMC11, and PPM catalogues. The 1st version of the ASCC-2.5 contained some errors in the zones -1 to +1 degree which have been corrected (see details in the "History" section below). The 2nd version included a new file (ccadd.dat) containing the previously missing stars (including components of multiple systems). Note that the ASCC numbers did not change between the two versions, but additional numbers (2600001 to 2603318) were assigned. In the present 3rd version of the ASCC-2.5 the stars from file ccadd.dat are inserted in the basic files in accordance with their coordinates. Stars in the ASCC-2.5 are divided into 30 files ordered by declination (North and South polar caps and 28 bands of 5 degrees width), then sorted in order of right ascension within each file.
