- Description:
- We investigate the supercluster MS0302+17 (ClG 0302+17, z~0.42) using weak lensing analysis and deep wide field BVR photometry with the CFH12K camera. Using (B-V) vs (V-R) evolution tracks we identify early-type members of the supercluster, and foreground ellipticals. We derive a R band catalogue of background galaxies for weak lensing analysis. We compute the correlation functions of light and mass and their cross-correlation and test if light traces mass on supercluster, cluster and galaxy scales. We show that the data are consistent with this assertion. The {zeta}-statistic applied in regions close to cluster centers and global correlation analyses over the whole field converge toward the simple relation M/L=300+/-30M_{sun}_/L_{sun}_ in the B band. This independently confirms the earlier results obtained by Kaiser (1998ApJ...498...26K). If we model dark matter halos around each early-type galaxy by a truncated isothermal sphere, we find that a linear relation M{prop.to}L still holds. In this case, the average halo truncation radius is s_*_<~200(h_70_)^-1^kpc close to clusters cores whereas it reaches a lower limit of ~300(h_70_)^-1^kpc at the periphery. This change of s_*_ as a function of radial distance may be interpreted as a result of tidal stripping of early type galaxies. Nevertheless the lack of information on the spatial distribution of late-type galaxies affects such conclusions concerning variations of s_*_. Though all the data at hand are clearly consistent with the assumption that mass is faithfully traced by light from early-type galaxies, we are not able to describe in detail the contribution of late type galaxies. We however found it to be small. Forthcoming wide surveys in UV, visible, and near infrared wavelengths will provide large enough samples to extend this analysis to late-type galaxies using photometric redshifts.

- Description:
- Automatic stellar photographic BVR photometry reaching 1mag below the horizontal branch of NGC 6584, located at V~16.5mag, has been performed for this poorly studied globular cluster. One of the photoelectric standard stars used in our reductions appears to be variable. We also determined accurate coordinates of 52 variable stars in the cluster and around it.

- Description:
- A detailed imaging analysis of the globular cluster (GC) system of the Sombrero galaxy (NGC 4594) has been accomplished using a six-image mosaic from the Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys. The quality of the data is such that contamination by foreground stars and background galaxies is negligible for all but the faintest 5% of the GC luminosity function. This enables the study of an effectively pure sample of 659 GCs until ~2mag fainter than the turnover magnitude, which occurs at M^TOM^_V_=-7.60+/-0.06 for an assumed m-M=29.77. Two GC metallicity subpopulations are easily distinguishable, with the metal-poor subpopulation exhibiting a smaller intrinsic dispersion in color compared to the metal-rich subpopulation.

- Description:
- Be stars are a class of rapidly rotating B stars with circumstellar disks that cause Balmer and other line emission. There are three possible reasons for the rapid rotation of Be stars: they may have been born as rapid rotators, spun up by binary mass transfer, or spun up during the main-sequence (MS) evolution of B stars. To test the various formation scenarios, we have conducted a photometric survey of 55 open clusters in the southern sky. Of these, five clusters are probably not physically associated groups and our results for two other clusters are not reliable, but we identify 52 definite Be stars and an additional 129 Be candidates in the remaining clusters.

- Description:
- We describe a technique to identify Be stars in open clusters using Stroemgren b, y, and narrowband H{alpha} photometry. We first identify the B-type stars of the cluster using a theoretical isochrone fit to the (b-y, y) color-magnitude diagram. The strongest Be stars are easily identified in a (b-y, y-H{alpha}) color-color diagram, but those with weaker H{alpha} emission (classified as possible Be star detections) may be confused with evolved or foreground stars. Here we present such photometry plus H{alpha} spectroscopy of members of the cluster NGC 3766 to demonstrate the accuracy of our technique.

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This table contains the Byurakan/Hamburg/ROSAT Catalog (BHRC) of the optical identifications of X-ray sources. The BHRC includes all 2791 X-ray sources from the ROSAT Faint Source Catalog (ROSAT-FSC, CDS Catalog <IX/29>) with galactic latitude |b| >= 30 degrees, declination >= 0 degrees, and ROSAT PSPC count rate CR > 0.04 ct/s. The optical identifications were carried out using the Hamburg Quasar Survey (HQS) digitized spectroscopic plates, the DSS1 and DSS2 (blue, red, and IR) images, the MAPS photometric data, the USNO-B1.0 (for proper motion), the NVSS and FIRST radio, and the IRAS and 2MASS infrared catalogs. From the DSS images, positional, brightness, color, extension, variability, and proper-motion information, the optical-to-X-ray positional offsets were obtained and a morphological classification was made. Available SIMBAD and NED data were also utilized. Cross-correlations were made with AGN, white dwarf, and cataclysmic variable catalogs (322, 8 and 7 associations, respectively). The authors managed to identify 97% of the sources (2696/2791 sources) that are associated with 3202 optical objects. 2248 X-ray sources have a single optical counterpart, 144 have a double or multiple optical counterpart (binaries, galaxy groups, etc.), and 304 have ambiguous identifications (some of the latter might actually be blends of two X-ray sources that were not resolved by ROSAT). The QSOs and AGN represent the largest group of X-ray counterparts (56.2%); bright stars (including late-type stars, but excluding WDs and CVs) are counterparts for 33.2% of the sources, and bright galaxies and groups of galaxies comprise 9.2%. A number of close galaxy pairs (possibly interacting/merging galaxies) are found as counterparts for X-ray sources (3.0%), as well as 1.0% WDs and 0.4% CVs. The BHRC may be used for the selection and study of samples of the various classes of X-ray emitters: the table gives all the available multiwavelength data for the identified sources. This table was created by the HEASARC in June 2006 based on CDS table J/A+A/449/425/table1.dat This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- Description:
- The sample of Byurakan-IRAS galaxies (BIG) has been created based on optical identifications of IRAS Point Source Catalog (PSC) at high galactic latitudes. As a result, 1178 galaxies have been identified. 172 of them have been observed spectroscopically with Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory (BAO, Armenia) 2.6m, Special Astrophysical Observatory (SAO, Russia) 6m and Observatoire de Haute Provence (OHP, France) 1.93m telescopes. Later on, spectra were obtained for more 83 BIG objects in Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We have extracted and studied these spectra, classified them and measured spectral features. Diagnostic diagrams have been built to distinguish starbursts (SB), LINERs and Seyfert galaxies. Cross-correlations were made for these objects with multiwavelength (MW) catalogues and their physical properties were studied. Among these 83 objects, 55 HII, 8 Seyfert galaxies, 2 LINERs, 4 other AGN, 6 composite spectrum objects, and 8 other emission-line galaxies have been revealed. Three of these objects are Ultra-Luminous InfraRed Galaxies (ULIRG).

- Description:
- We explore the environments of two radio galaxies at z~1.5, 7C 1751+6809 and 7C 1756+6520, using deep optical and near-infrared imaging. Our data cover 15x15arcmin^2^ fields around the radio galaxies. We develop and apply BzK color criteria to select cluster member candidates around the radio galaxies and find no evidence of an overdensity of red galaxies within 2Mpc of 7C 1751+6809. In contrast, 7C 1756+6520 shows a significant overdensity of red galaxies within 2Mpc of the radio galaxy, by a factor of 3.1+/-0.8 relative to the four MUSYC fields. At small separation (r<6"), this radio galaxy also has one z>1.4 evolved galaxy candidate, one z>1.4 star-forming galaxy candidate, and an AGN candidate (at indeterminate redshift).

- Description:
- We present an unbiased catalog of calcium abundances for 517 red giants brighter than M_V_~-1 in the chemically inhomogeneous globular cluster omega Centauri. The basic features of the abundance distribution are as follows: (1) few, if any, stars exist on the giant branch of omega Cen with [Ca/H] less than -1.6; (2) there is a well-defined peak in the distribution at [Ca/H]=-1.4, with a long tail stretching up to ~[Ca/H]~-0.3; and (3) the distribution is bimodal with a second smaller peak in the distribution at [Ca/H]=-0.9.

- Description:
- We present a determination of photospheric parameters and carbon abundances for a sample of 172 G and K dwarf, subgiant, and giant stars with and without detected planets in the solar neighbourhood. The analysis was based on high signal-to-noise ratio and high resolution spectra observed with the ELODIE spectrograph (Haute Provence Observatory, France) and for which the observational data were publicly available. We intend to contribute precise and homogeneous C abundances in studies that compare the behaviour of light elements in stars with and without planets. This will bring new arguments to the discussion of possible anomalies that have been suggested and will contribute to a better understanding of different planetary formation process.
