16491. UV-bright sources behind M31 halo
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/MNRAS/399/728
Title:
UV-bright sources behind M31 halo
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/399/728
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We have performed a wide-area ultraviolet (UV) imaging survey using the GALaxy Evolution eXplorer to search for bright, point-like UV sources behind M31's extended halo. Our survey consisted of 46 pointings covering an effective area of ~50deg^2^, in both the far-UV and near-UV channels. We combined these data with optical R-band observations acquired with the WIYN Mosaic-1 imager on the Kitt Peak National Observatory 0.9-m WIYN telescope. An analysis of the brightness and colours of sources matched between our photometric catalogues yielded ~100 UV-bright quasar candidates. We have obtained discovery spectra for 76 of these targets with the Kast spectrometer on the Lick 3-m telescope and confirmed 30 active galactic nuclei and quasars, 29 galaxies at z>0.02 including several early-type systems, 16 Galactic stars (hot main-sequence stars) and one featureless source previously identified as a BL Lac object. Future UV spectroscopy of the brightest targets with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope will enable a systematic search for diffuse gas in the extended halo of M31.
16492. UV Bright Star Spectrophotometric Catalog

Title:
UV Bright Star Spectrophotometric Catalog
Short Name:
III/39A
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This catalogue contains observations carried out by the S2/68 Ultraviolet Sky Survey Telescope (UVSST) aboard the ESRO Satellite TD-1, which measured the absolute ultraviolet flux distribution between 2740A (274nm) and 1350A (135nm). The data presented in this catalogue were obtained during the first observation period, which lasted from 19 March 1972 to 31 October 1972, and contains the brightest objects, for which the signal is good enough to give valuable spectrophotometric information. The Faint Star Catalogue, which contains the photometric data of the stars up to the limit of detectability of the instrument, is known as the "Catalogue of Ultraviolet Fluxes", by Thompson et al. (catalog <II/59>) The S2/68 experiment has been described by Boksenberg et al. (=1973MNRAS.163..291B) and the absolute calibration by Humphries et al. (=1976A&A....49..389H).
16493. UV Bright-Star Spectrophotometric Supplement

Title:
UV Bright-Star Spectrophotometric Supplement
Short Name:
II/86
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This catalogue is a supplement of the Ultraviolet Bright Star Spectrophotometric Catalogue (=III/39A). It contains observations carried out by the S2/68 Ultraviolet Sky Survey Telescope (UVSST) aboard the ESRO satellite TD-1. The data presented in this supplement were obtained during the second and third observation periods, which lasted from 19 February 1973 to 30 September 1973 and from 16 February to 6 May 1974. The S2/68 experiment has been described by Boksenberg et al. (=1973MNRAS.163..291B) Owing to the optical scanning mode, most of the stars observed during the first observational period, the spectra of which are included in the "Ultraviolet Bright-Star Spectrophotometric Catalogue", were seen again by the telescope. This supplement, however, has been limited to the spectra of stars that were not observed during the first period. The data reduction and selection criteria are identical to those underlying the main Catalogue and hence the data presented in the Supplement are directly comparable with those in the main Catalogue. The Supplement contains data for 435 stars. For a statistical summary of the observed stars, see the tables I and II in the published version of the Supplement. The spectrum scanning itself was achieved by the movement of a star image across the wide entrance slot of the spectrophotometer, which caused the corresponding spectrum image to pass over the three exit slits in the direction of dispersion. The motion of the primary image during each detector integration interval (0.148 s) was equivalent to 19.4 A, depending on the channel. The wavelength range covered was 1350 - 2550 A. The passband of the photometer channel, defined by a glass transmission filter and the photocathode tube response, was centered at 2740 A and had a full width at half height of 310 A.

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This catalogue is an updated version of the one published in 1990 (Hauck and Mermilliod, 1990) and contains data for more than 63,300 stars in the Galaxy and Magellanic Clouds. In a first table, we present the catalogue itself, giving for each star identifications, coordinates (B1950), visual magnitude, and the mean value of the photoelectric data concerning the star and the data sources. In the second table, we give for each star, the individual measurements. These measurements from which these values were computed were collected from observations published until the middle of 1996. The catalogue includes 533 references.

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
A uvbyH{beta} Stromgren photometric survey covering 16sq.deg in the anticenter direction was carried out using the Wide Field Camera (WFC) at the Isaac Newton Telescope (INT), with a typical seeing of 1-1.5". Data from three different observing runs (2009A, 2010B, 2011A) were used for the catalog. The calibration to the standard system was undertaken using open clusters. A main catalog of 35974 stars with all Stromgren indexes, and a more extended one with 96980 stars with partial data. The central 8sq.deg have a limiting magnitude of V=17mag while the outer region reaches V=15.5mag. Two catalogs are available, the first one with the final mean values and a second one with all the individual measurements for each star.

Description:
In recent years a significant development has become evident in the study of the stellar structure of the Galactic disk. This is especially true for the 3rd Galactic quadrant, where the stellar population was extensively investigated beyond 10kpc, revealing details about the warped geometry of the thin and thick disks and outer arm. The 4th Galactic quadrant offers even better opportunity to follow the distribution of the young stellar populace to a large distance, since the line of sight is parallel to the largest single segment of a spiral arm seen from our position in the Galaxy: the Carina spiral feature. This paper further contributes to the study of the structure of the Galactic disk in the direction of Carina field utilizing homogeneous photometric distances of a sample of about 600 bright early-type stars seen in this direction up to 6kpc. The derived stellar distances are based on uvby{beta} photometry. All O and B type stars with uvby{beta} data presently available are included in the study.

Description:
Stroemgren uvby{beta} photometry has been collected for a total of 1017 stars earlier than G0 lying in an area of the sky containing the Southern Coalsack, the Musca, and the Chamaeleon dark clouds. The targets were selected from the SAO star catalog, and the results give V, b-y, m_1_, c_1_, and {beta} on the standard systems, with overall rms errors for one observation of one star of 0.008mag , 0.004mag , 0.006mag , 0.009mag , and 0.011mag , respectively.
16498. uvby{beta} photometry in 3 EUV shadow directions

Title:
uvby{beta} photometry in 3 EUV shadow directions
Short Name:
J/A+AS/130/477
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the uvby{beta} data used to locate the dust and derive distances for nearby diffuse interstellar clouds in the EUV shadows lb27-31, lb165-32 and lb329+46 discovered by the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer. The photometrically derived parallaxes of our program stars are compared to the parallaxes listed in the Hipparcos Catalog. Within the photometric distance limit of 150pc, the photometric parallaxes of 21 ``normal" stars are consistent with the Hipparcos measurements within an uncertainty of 15%. Much as expected for the Stroemgren system. Since all program stars are brighter than V=~11.5 most of them are included in the Tycho photometry. For our sample of ~200 stars we find V_by_ and V_T_ to be consistent. Few stars are common to published uvby{beta} catalogs, ~10, V and the indices compare well apart from {beta} where a zero point difference of 11mmag is noticed.

Description:
This investigation presents a study of the Galactic structure toward the Norma section of the Milky Way. The field studied is located between 325{deg} and 335{deg} Galactic longitude and -8{deg} to 8{deg} Galactic latitude. New observations in the uvby{beta} system are combined with all uvby{beta} data currently available to collate a sample of 130 O and B stars. A uniform procedure is applied to obtain the color excesses and stellar distances for all of the stars in the sample. The sample is magnitude limited to about V=9.5mag and contains the brightest stars of the open clusters NGC 6087 and Ly 6, the field 2158 of Loden, the OB association Nor OB1, and stars located in the directions of R 103 and R 105.
