15501. The gNLS1 galaxy PKS 2004-447. VLBI images

Title:
The gNLS1 galaxy PKS 2004-447. VLBI images

Description:
Gamma-ray-detected radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 (g-NLS1) galaxies constitute a small but interesting sample of the g-ray-loud AGN. The radio-loudest g-NLS1 known, PKS 2004-447, is located in the southern hemisphere and is monitored in the radio regime by the multiwavelength monitoring programme TANAMI. We aim for the first detailed study of the radio morphology and long-term radio spectral evolution of PKS 2004-447, which are essential for understanding the diversity of the radio properties of g-NLS1s. The TANAMI VLBI monitoring program uses the Australian Long Baseline Array (LBA) and telescopes in Antarctica, Chile, New Zealand, and South Africa to monitor the jets of radio-loud active galaxies in the southern hemisphere. Lower resolution radio flux density measurements at multiple radio frequencies over four years of observations were obtained with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). The TANAMI VLBI image at 8.4GHz shows an extended one-sided jet with a dominant compact VLBI core. Its brightness temperature is consistent with equipartition, but it is an order of magnitude below other g-NLS1s with the sample value varying over two orders of magnitude. We find a compact morphology with a projected large-scale size <11kpc and a persistent steep radio spectrum with moderate flux-density variability. PKS 2004-447 appears to be a unique member of the g-NLS1 sample. It exhibits blazar-like features, such as a flat featureless X-ray spectrum and a core-dominated, one-sided parsec-scale jet with indications for relativistic beaming. However, the data also reveal properties atypical for blazars, such as a radio spectrum and large-scale size consistent with compact-steep-spectrum (CSS) objects, which are usually associated with young radio sources. These characteristics are unique among all g-NLS1s and extremely rare among g-ray-loud AGN.

The GNRIS-Distant Quasar Survey (GNRIS-DQS)
Short Name:
J/ApJS/252/15
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present spectroscopic measurements for 226 sources from the Gemini Near Infrared Spectrograph-Distant Quasar Survey (GNIRS-DQS). Being the largest uniform, homogeneous survey of its kind, it represents a flux-limited sample (m_i_<~19.0mag, H<~16.5mag) of Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) quasars at 1.5<~z<~3.5 with a monochromatic luminosity ({lambda}L_{lambda}_) at 5100{AA} in the range of 10^44^-10^46^erg/s. A combination of the GNIRS and SDSS spectra covers principal quasar diagnostic features, chiefly the CIV{lambda}1549, MgII{lambda}{lambda}2798,2803, H{beta}{lambda}4861, and [OIII]{lambda}{lambda}4959,5007 emission lines, in each source. The spectral inventory will be utilized primarily to develop prescriptions for obtaining more accurate and precise redshifts, black hole masses, and accretion rates for all quasars. Additionally, the measurements will facilitate an understanding of the dependence of rest-frame ultraviolet-optical spectral properties of quasars on redshift, luminosity, and Eddington ratio, and test whether the physical properties of the quasar central engine evolve over cosmic time.
15503. The GPM catalog

Title:
The GPM catalog
Short Name:
I/285
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
GPM is the newer version of the General Compiled Catalogue of Absolute Proper Motions, derived with respect to galaxies within the plan called Catalogue of Faint Stars (KSZ, Deutch, 1952, Trans. IAU, Vol. 8, 789). The programme was proposed for several observatories of the former Soviet Union, China, Rumania and Spain. There are some resulting individual catalogues of absolute proper motions of stars compiled at five observatories (Kiev, Pulkovo, Moscow, Tashkent and Shanghai). The GPM combines these catalogues and comprises absolute proper motions for 52805 stars from 8 to 15.5mag in 185 fields north of -25 degrees of declination. The size of each region is nearly 1.5 square degrees. The mean standard error of proper motion is 8 mas/yr on average. Detailed information on the construction methodology and input data can be found in (Rybka & Yatsenko, 1997KFNT...13e..70R). In addition to absolute proper motions the GPM contains accurate equatorial coordinates and three-colour B V R photometry for the vast majority of its stars (Rybka 2000KFNT...16e..60R). Additional information was selected from all available sources. Usage of the ACT catalog should provide improved positions (mostly in removing of systematic errors) and improved photometry (because the brightest stars in each GPM region had B and V magnitudes measured by the Tycho experiment on the Hipparcos satellite). The mean accuracies achived, as demonstrated by comparison with above catalogue, are 250 mas for the positions and 0.22mag for B magnitude and 0.26mag for B-V colour. The GPM gives right ascensions and declinations for equinox J2000.0 and epoch copied from available sources. They were only presented to identify the GPM stars with those from other catalogues. The compiled catalogue also presents B magnitudes and B-V colours. They were converted to be close to Johnson system. The Tycho stars were also identified in the GPM catalogue. A search area with a radius of 2 arcseconds was used to search for multiple entries of the same star, which may be appeared in the region overlap areas. The detected entries were then removed from the final catalogue. The procedure decreased the number of stars in the catalogue by about 0.4 %. The adopted catalogue organization includes data in 185 regions sorted according the KSZ region numbers. The data were then sorted nearly in right ascension order within each GPM region. All information needed to associate a point on the sky with region number and provide a more rapid access to that region are given in file region.dat.

Description:
This catalog presents the parts I, II, and III of the Green Bank survey of extragalactic radio sources at 1400 MHz. The data were obtained with the 300' antenna, producing a beamwidth of 10'x11' FWHM. Part I of the survey covers about 521 square degrees of the sky with RA from 7h17m to 16h23m, DEC from +45.8{deg} to +51.7{deg}. 1086 sources are presented down to a limiting flux density of 90 mJy. These data were originally published in Maslowski, 1972, Acta Astronomica, 22, 227 (1972AcA....22..227M). Part II of the survey covers 0.28 sr of the sky with RA from 7h08m to 16h57m, DEC from +31.9{deg} to +39.7{deg}. 2022 sources are presented down to a limiting flux density of 0.09 mJy. Spectral indices between 1400 MHz and 408 MHz are determined for most sources by comparison with the B2 source catalog (Cat.<VIII/36>). These data were originally published in Machalski 1978, Acta Astronomica, 28, 367 (1978AcA....28..367M) Part III of the survey covers an area of 0.099 sr at declinations between 70 and 76.8 degrees. This catalog contains a total of 676 radio sources, of which 502 are statistically complete to 112 mJy. These data were originally published as Rys and Machalski, 1987, Acta Astronomica, 37, 163 (1987AcA....37..163R).
15505. The GSH Binary Survey

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Since 2009 the Grossschwabhausen binary survey is carried out at the University Observatory Jena. This new imaging survey uses available time slots during photometric monitoring campaigns, caused by non-photometric weather conditions, which often exhibit a good atmospheric seeing. The goal of the project is to obtain current relative astrometric measurements of binary systems, that are listed in the Washington Visual Double Star Catalog. In this paper we characterize the target sample of the survey, describe the imaging observations, the astrometric measurements including the astrometric calibration, and present relative astrometric measures of all binaries, which could be obtained in the course of the survey, so far.
