1621. Bright extragalactic radio sources at 2.7 GHz
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/MNRAS/216/173
Title:
Bright extragalactic radio sources at 2.7 GHz
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/216/173
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The brightest extragalactic radio sources at 2.7 GHz are catalogued. The complete sample comprises 233 sources found in the major centimeter wavelength surveys carried out at ANRAO/Parkes, NNRAO/Greenbank, and MPIfR/Bonn: the sample covers 9.81 sr and has limits S(27) = 2.0 Jy and |b| > 10{deg}. A critical reanalysis of the data shows that 227 (97 percent) have optical identifications and 171 (73 percent) have measured redshifts. The implications of the catalogue statistics for the luminosity functions of different radio-source populations are considered.
1622. Bright Extragalactic Radio Sources (1Jy)
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/VIII/5
Title:
Bright Extragalactic Radio Sources (1Jy)
Short Name:
VIII/5
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The catalog is a compilation of 518 extragalactic radio sources with flux densities greater than 1 Jy at 5 GHz. It contains sources from the NRAO-MPI 5-GHz Strong Source Surveys and from re-observation at 5 GHz of sources found in the Parkes 2.7-GHz surveys. All sources were found in 9.811 sr covered by the two surveys. This is essentially the whole sky, excluding the galactic plane (latitudes less than 10 degrees) and the Magellanic Clouds. The catalog includes radio flux densities, radio positions, object classes, visual magnitudes, redshifts, and spectral indices.
1623. Bright filamentary structures in the ISM
ID:

Title:
Bright filamentary structures in the ISM
Short Name:
J/ApJS/149/365
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a listing of prominent filamentary structures in the interstellar cirrus, selected with an eye toward current and planned far-infrared and submillimeter polarimetry facilities. The filaments were identified on the 100{mu}m plates of the IRAS Sky Survey Atlas (ISSA, Wheelock et al. 1994, IRAS Sky Survey Atlas: Explanatory Supplement (JPL Publ. 94-11; Pasadena: JPL)), using a computer vision algorithm that is unbiased with respect to source intensity. Our catalog is two-tiered: the selection criteria in the Galactic plane are based on the sensitivity limits of airborne polarimeters such as the proposed HALE instrument for SOFIA, and away from the plane the limits are dictated by the sensitivities of balloon-borne cosmic microwave background experiments, such as BOOMERanG and MAXIMA. Infrared detector technology is currently at the point where detecting the polarization of the interstellar cirrus is feasible, and we hope this catalog will assist any experimenter undertaking this task.
1624. Bright Gaia white dwarfs with unWISE photometry
ID:

Title:
Bright Gaia white dwarfs with unWISE photometry
Short Name:
J/ApJ/902/127
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Studies of excess infrared radiation around white dwarfs provide important constraints on the evolution of planetary systems and low-mass companions beyond the main-sequence stage. In this paper series, we focus on identifying and characterizing bright white dwarfs with an infrared excess. Here, we present 188 infrared excess candidates from Gaia and unWISE, 147 of which are new discoveries. Further characterization of this sample can significantly increase the current list of white dwarf debris disks and white dwarfs with low-mass companions.
1625. 6 bright Galactic Cepheids data
ID:

Title:
6 bright Galactic Cepheids data
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/430/2018
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the analysis of photometric and spectroscopic data of six bright Galactic Cepheids: GH Carinae, V419 Centauri, V898 Centauri, AD Puppis, AY Sagittarii and ST Velorum. Based on new radial velocity data (in some cases supplemented with earlier data available in the literature), these Cepheids have been found to be members in spectroscopic binary systems. V898 Cen turned out to have one of the largest orbital radial velocity amplitude (>40km/s) among the known binary Cepheids. The data are insufficient to determine the orbital periods nor other orbital elements for these new spectroscopic binaries. These discoveries corroborate the statement on the high frequency of occurrence of binaries among the classical Cepheids, a fact to be taken into account when calibrating the period-luminosity relationship for Cepheids. We have also compiled all available photometric data that revealed that the pulsation period of AD Pup, the longest period Cepheid in this sample, is continuously increasing with {Delta}P=0.004567d/century, likely to be caused by stellar evolution. The wave-like pattern superimposed on the parabolic O-C graph of AD Pup may well be caused by the light-time effect in the binary system. ST Vel also pulsates with a continuously increasing period. The other four Cepheids are characterized with stable pulsation periods in the last half century.
1626. Bright Galactic stars with 24um excesses

Title:
Bright Galactic stars with 24um excesses
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Optically bright Galactic stars (V<~13mag) having f_nu_(24um)>1mJy are identified in Spitzer mid-infrared surveys within 8.2deg^2^ for the Bootes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey and within 5.5deg^2^ for the First Look Survey (FLS). One hundred and twenty-eight stars are identified in Bootes and 140 in the FLS, and their photometry is given. (K-[24]) colors are determined using K magnitudes from the Two Micron All Sky Survey for all stars in order to search for excess 24um luminosity compared to that arising from the stellar photosphere.
1627. Bright galaxies in 5 medium redshift clusters. I.
ID:

Title:
Bright galaxies in 5 medium redshift clusters. I.
Short Name:
J/A+A/487/453
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Using data from five clusters of galaxies within the redshift range 0.15<=z<=0.25, imaged with the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) in the central ~1Mpc^2^ in very good seeing conditions, we have performed an exhaustive inspection of their bright galaxy population. That range of redshift, where only a small amount of data with the required resolution and quality is available, is particularly important for the understanding of the formation and evolution of clusters of galaxies. We have inspected the color-magnitude relation (CMR) for those clusters and measured the blue fraction of galaxies in their cores to check for evidence of evolution as found in other works. Visual classification of the galaxy morphology has been performed and the morphology-radius relation examined.
1628. Bright HMXBs in THINGS galaxies
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/MNRAS/466/1019
Title:
Bright HMXBs in THINGS galaxies
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/466/1019
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Using a spectral analysis of bright Chandra X-ray sources located in 27 nearby galaxies and maps of star-formation rate (SFR) and ISM surface densities for these galaxies, we constructed the intrinsic X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of luminous high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs), taking into account absorption effects and the diversity of HMXB spectra. The XLF per unit SFR can be described by a power law dN/dlogL=2.0(L/10^39^erg/s)^(-0.6)^(M_{sun}_/yr)^-1^ from L=10^38^ to 10^40.5^erg/s, where L is the unabsorbed luminosity at 0.25-8 keV. The intrinsic number of luminous HMXBs per unit SFR is a factor of ~2.3 larger than the observed number reported before. The intrinsic XLF is composed of hard, soft and supersoft sources (defined here as those with the 0.25-2keV to 0.25-8keV flux ratio of <0.6, 0.6-0.95 and >0.95, respectively) in ~2:1:1 proportion. We also constructed the intrinsic HMXB XLF in the soft X-ray band (0.25-2keV). Here, the numbers of hard, soft and supersoft sources prove to be nearly equal. The cumulative present-day 0.25-2 keV emissivity of HMXBs with luminosities between 10^38^ and 10^40.5^erg/s is ~5x10^39^erg/s(M_{sun}_/yr)^-1^, which may be relevant for studying the X-ray preheating of the early Universe.
1629. Bright Lyman-alpha emitters in MUSE/COSMOS field
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/A+A/633/A159
Title:
Bright Lyman-alpha emitters in MUSE/COSMOS field
Short Name:
J/A+A/633/A159
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We search for the presence of bright Ly-alpha emitters among Spitzer SMUVS galaxies at z>2.9 making use of homogeneous MUSE spectroscopic data. Although these data only cover a small region of COSMOS, MUSE has the unique advantage of providing spectral information over the entire field, without the need of target pre-selection. This results in an unbiased detection of all the brightest Ly-alpha emitters among the SMUVS sources, which by design are stellar-mass selected galaxies. Within the studied area, ~14% of the SMUVS galaxies at z>2.9 have Ly-alpha fluxes F_{lambda}_>~7x10^-18^erg/s/cm^2^. These Ly-alpha emitters are characterized by three types of emission, 47% show a single line profile, 19% present a double peak or a blue bump and 31% show a red tail. One object (3%) shows both a blue bump and a red tail. We also investigate the spectral energy distribution (SED) properties of the SMUVS galaxies which are MUSE detected and which are not. After stellar-mass matching both populations, we find that the MUSE detected galaxies have generally lower extinction than SMUVS-only objects, while there is no clear intrinsic difference in the mass and age distributions of the two samples. For the MUSE-detected SMUVS galaxies, we compare the instantaneous SFR lower limit obtained from the Ly-alpha line with its past average derived from SED fitting, and find evidence for rejuvenation in some of our oldest objects. In addition, we study the spectra of those Ly-alpha emitters which are not detected in SMUVS in the same field. We find that the emission line profile shown are 67% a single line, 3% a blue bump and 20% a red tail profile. The difference in profile distribution could be ascribed to the fainter Ly-alpha luminosities of the MUSE sources not detected in SMUVS and an intrinsically different mass distribution. Finally, we search for the presence of galaxy associations using the spectral redshifts. MUSE's integral coverage reveals that these associations are 20 times more likely than what is derived from all the other existing spectral data in COSMOS, which is biased by target pre-selection.
1630. Bright M Dwarf All-Sky Catalog
ID:

Title:
Bright M Dwarf All-Sky Catalog
Short Name:
MDWARFASC
Date:
21 Feb 2025
Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
This table contains an all-sky catalog of M dwarf stars with apparent infrared magnitude J &lt; 10. The 8889 stars are selected from the ongoing SUPERBLINK survey of stars with proper motion mu &gt; 40 mas yr&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt;, supplemented on the bright end with the Tycho-2 catalog. Completeness tests which account for kinematic (proper motion) bias suggest that this catalog represents ~75% of the estimated ~11,900 M dwarfs with J &lt; 10 expected to populate the entire sky. The catalog is, however, significantly more complete for the northern sky (~90%) than it is for the south (~60%). Stars are identified as cool, red M dwarfs from a combination of optical and infrared color cuts, and are distinguished from background M giants and highly reddened stars using either existing parallax measurements or, if such measurements are lacking, using their location in an optical-to-infrared reduced proper motion diagram. These bright M dwarfs are all prime targets for exoplanet surveys using the Doppler radial velocity or transit methods; the combination of low-mass and bright apparent magnitude should make possible the detection of Earth-size planets on short-period orbits using currently available techniques. Parallax measurements, when available, and photometric distance estimates are provided for all stars, and these place most systems within 60 pc of the Sun. Spectral type estimated from V-J color shows that most of the stars range from K7 to M4, with only a few late M dwarfs, all within 20 pc. Proximity to the Sun also makes these stars good targets for high-resolution exoplanet imaging searches, especially if younger objects can be identified on the basis of X-ray or UV excess. For that purpose, we include X-ray flux from ROSAT and FUV/NUV ultraviolet magnitudes from GALEX for all stars for which a counterpart can be identified in those catalogs. Additional photometric data include optical magnitudes from Digitized Sky Survey plates and infrared magnitudes from the Two Micron All Sky Survey. This table was first created by the HEASARC in October 2011 based on electronic versions of Tables 1 and 2 from the reference paper which were obtained from the AJ web site. A slightly revised version based on corrected versions of the input tables received from the author was ingested in December 2011. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
