- Description:
- We study the dynamical stability of planetary systems consisting of one hypothetical terrestrial-mass planet (1 or 10M_{earth}_) and one massive planet (10M{earth}-10M_jup_). We consider masses and orbits that cover the range of observed planetary system architectures (including non-zero initial eccentricities), determine the stability limit through N-body simulations, and compare it to the analytic Hill stability boundary. We show that for given masses and orbits of a two-planet system, a single parameter, which can be calculated analytically, describes the Lagrange stability boundary (no ejections or exchanges) but diverges significantly from the Hill stability boundary. However, we do find that the actual boundary is fractal, and therefore we also identify a second parameter which demarcates the transition from stable to unstable evolution. We show the portions of the habitable zones (HZs) of {rho} CrB, HD 164922, GJ 674, and HD 7924 that can support a terrestrial planet. These analyses clarify the stability boundaries in exoplanetary systems and demonstrate that, for most exoplanetary systems, numerical simulations of the stability of potentially habitable planets are only necessary over a narrow region of the parameter space. Finally, we also identify and provide a catalog of known systems that can host terrestrial planets in their HZs.

- Description:
- The file table 2 gives the results of various tests and noise measurements performed on time serie of extragalactic radio source coordinates. Systematic and random behaviours in time serie of individual determinations of cooordinates for 283 sources over 1987-1999 are investigated. The random variability of the source coordinates is characterized by the {chi}^2^ test (Bevington, 1969, p.187) and the "goodness of fit (gof)" (Bevington, 1969, p.188). The Allan variance method (Allan, 1966, Proc. IEEE, vol. 54, 221) is used to investigate spectral characteristics of the time series. The source structure index (Fey & Charlot, 1997ApJS..111...95F, 2000, Cat. <J/ApJS/128/17>) qualifies the level of position disturbance expected at the date of the map (1 for the less disturbed, 4 for the most disturbed). The estimation of "linear rates" in the coordinates is a qualifier of the systematic parts of the source instability. This table contains the 283 best observed sources and is divided in three parts, with the left hand side giving general information and counts, the middle part giving statistics in the source local frame, and the right hand side giving statistics in the equatorial frame.

- Description:
- We present an overview of the Space Telescope A901/2 Galaxy Evolution Survey (STAGES). STAGES is a multiwavelength project designed to probe physical drivers of galaxy evolution across a wide range of environments and luminosity. A complex multicluster system at z~0.165 has been the subject of an 80-orbit F606W Hubble Space Telescope (HST)/Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) mosaic covering the full 0.5x0.5deg^2^ (~5x5Mpc^2^) span of the supercluster. Extensive multiwavelength observations with XMM-Newton, GALEX, Spitzer, 2dF, Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope and the 17-band COMBO-17 photometric redshift survey complement the HST imaging. Our survey goals include simultaneously linking galaxy morphology with other observables such as age, star formation rate, nuclear activity and stellar mass. In addition, with the multiwavelength data set and new high-resolution mass maps from gravitational lensing, we are able to disentangle the large-scale structure of the system. By examining all aspects of an environment we will be able to evaluate the relative importance of the dark matter haloes, the local galaxy density and the hot X-ray gas in driving galaxy transformation.

- Standard calibration stars infrared spectra
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/132/1445
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Infrared spectra with increased spectral resolution and accuracy of the absolute infrared spectral flux have been created for a subset of stellar standards created by Cohen and his collaborators in previous papers in this series. Moderate-resolution ({lambda}/{Delta}{lambda}~400) spectroscopy obtained on infrared standard stars by the Short Wavelength Spectrometer on the Infrared Space Observatory was combined with high-quality photometry tied to our recent absolute calibration from the Midcourse Space Experiment. Thus, 1-35 micron spectra were created for 33 stars, 9 of which are Cohen et al. secondary standards and another 20 of which are tertiary standards for which Cohen adopted spectral templates. The wavelength spacing is given by (0.0001/1 micron)*lambda^2, which provides for 10,000 samples over the 1-35 micron spectral range

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a multi-wavelength compilation of new and previously published photometry for 55 Galactic field RR Lyrae variables. Individual studies, spanning a time baseline of up to 30 years, are self-consistently phased to produce light curves in 10 photometric bands covering the wavelength range from 0.4 to 4.5 microns. Data smoothing via the GLOESS technique is described and applied to generate high-fidelity light curves, from which mean magnitudes, amplitudes, rise times, and times of minimum and maximum light are derived. 60000 observations were acquired using the new robotic Three-hundred MilliMeter Telescope (TMMT), which was first deployed at the Carnegie Observatories in Pasadena, CA, and is now permanently installed and operating at Las Campanas Observatory in Chile. We provide a full description of the TMMT hardware, software, and data reduction pipeline. Archival photometry contributed approximately 31000 observations. Photometric data are given in the standard Johnson UBV, Kron-Cousins R_C_I_C_, 2MASS JHK, and Spitzer [3.6] and [4.5] bandpasses.

- Description:
- A single table combines the revised and extended results of 24 series of photometric observations made in South Africa between 1947 and 1960 on the nine Harvard E regions at declination -45{deg}. For each of about 90 stars in each region are tabulated V and B-V on the standard U,B,V system, an ultraviolet-free blue magnitude S'Pg, a photovisual magnitude SPv and, in most cases, an ultraviolet minus blue colour (U-B)_C_. The internal standard error of an entry is +/-0.01mag or less.

- Description:
- We have combined near-infrared data from the Two Micron All Sky Survey with ancillary optical data to identify previously unrecognized proper-motion stars that have colors and magnitudes consistent with nearby M dwarfs. We present follow-up observations of 392 stars from that sample, including ~200 stars discussed here for the first time. Our distance estimates, based primarily on spectroscopic parallaxes, place 123 stars within 20pc of the Sun. One hundred and seventy-six stars exhibit H{alpha} emission, and 82 stars have plausible X-ray counterparts from ROSAT observations.

- Description:
- We derive molecular-gas-phase ^12^C/^13^C isotope ratios for the central few hundred parsecs of the three nearby starburst galaxies NGC253, NGC1068, and NGC4945 making use of the {lambda}~3mm ^12^CN and ^13^CN N=1-0 lines in the ALMA Band 3. The ^12^C/^13^C isotopic ratios derived from the ratios of these lines range from 30 to 67 with an average of 41.6+/-0.2 in NGC253, from 24 to 62 with an average of 38.3+/-0.4 in NGC1068, and from 6 to 44 with an average of 16.9+/-0.3 in NGC4945. The highest ^12^C/^13^C isotopic ratios are determined in some of the outskirts of the nuclear regions of the three starburst galaxies. The lowest ratios are associated with the northeastern and southwestern molecular peaks of NGC253, the northeastern and southwestern edge of the mapped region in NGC1068, and the very center of NGC4945. In the case of NGC 1068, the measured ratios suggest inflow from the outer part of NGC1068 into the circum-nuclear disk through both the halo and the bar. Low ^12^C/^13^C isotopic ratios in the central regions of these starburst galaxies indicate the presence of highly processed material.

- Description:
- At high redshift, starburst galaxies present irregular morphologies, with 10-20% of their star formation occurring in giant clumps. These clumpy galaxies are considered to be the progenitors of local disk galaxies. To understand the properties of starbursts at intermediate and low redshift, it is fundamental to track their evolution and possible link with the systems at higher z. We present an extensive, systematic, and multi-band search and analysis of the starburst galaxies at redshift (0<z<0.5) in the COSMOS field, as well as detailed characteristics of their star-forming clumps by using Hubble Space Telescope/Advance Camera for Surveys (HST/ACS) images. The starburst galaxies are identified using a tailor-made intermediate-band color excess selection, tracing the simultaneous presence of H{alpha} and [OIII] emission lines in the galaxies. Our methodology uses previous information from the zCOSMOS spectral database to calibrate the color excess as a function of the equivalent width of both spectral lines. This technique allows us to identify 220 starburst galaxies at redshift 0<z<0.5 using the SUBARU intermediate-band filters. Combining the high spatial resolution images from the HST/ACS with ground-based multi-wavelength photometry we identify and parametrize the star-forming clumps in every galaxy. Their principal properties, sizes, masses, and star formation rates are provided.
