2161. Catalog of Galaxies Behind the Milky Way

Title:
Catalog of Galaxies Behind the Milky Way
Short Name:
VII/140
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This catalog, giving about 7000 galaxies behind the Milky Way between l = 210 degrees and 250 degrees, represents a systematic search for galaxies by means of 32 film copies of the UK Schmidt Southern Infrared Atlas on the Milky Way covering about 900 square degrees. In the search galaxies with apparent sizes greater than 0.1 mm on film (6.7 arcsec in size) were detected by visual inspection. The material and procedure of search are described as well as the detectability of galaxies in paper I and paper II appended before Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 of the catalog, respectively, which have been published in Publ. Astron. Soc. Japan, Vol. 42 (1990) and Vol. 43 (1991). The parameters of catalogued galaxies are also explained in paper I. Cross-identifications with other catalogs are shown in the last column. The search was performed by undergraduate students of a galactic astronomy program in Department of Astronomy, Kyoto University, in 1988 and 1989. Since the main researchers changed from the search in 1988 (Vol. 1) to that in 1989 (Vol. 2), a surface brightness level determining the extents of galaxy images somewhat differs between Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, yielding a difference of mean number densities of the detected galaxies between Vol. 1 and Vol. 2. The difference is examined in paper II. The detectability of galaxies, especially of smallest galaxies, increased in the overlap zones of adjacent fields of the Atlas; the effects are discussed in a paper (Yamada and Saito 1991, to appear in Publ. Astron. Soc. Japan, Vol. 43). In spite of such inhomogeneities in search for galaxies, the catalog is useful as a finding list of bright galaxies, peculiar galaxies, and nearby clusters of galaxies in the region behind the Milky Way. The machine-readable version of the catalog has been made through efforts of Mr. Shogo Nishida, Mr. Tadafumi Takata, and Professor Shiro Nishimura. This will be distributed upon request from Astronomical Data Analysis Center of the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan and other astronomical data centers. This work was supported by the Grant-in-Aid for General Scientific Research (01420002) of the Japanese Ministry of Education, Science, and Culture. June 1991 Mamoru Saito
2162. Catalog of galaxies in and around A1367

Title:
Catalog of galaxies in and around A1367
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a catalog of galaxies in and around the cluster A1367, together with the results of a spectroscopic study of eight faint galaxies projected onto the central part of the cluster. The observations were carried out with the Boller and Chivens spectrograph of the 2m telescope of the Guillermo Haro Observatory (Cananea, Mexico). Redshifts of eight galaxies were derived from both emission and absorption lines; the redshift for one of these, derived from Halpha, SII, OIII, and Hbeta emission lines, is z=0.015. The spectrum of this galaxy displays no absorption lines at z=0.026, testifying that it is located between the observer and A1367.

Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
This is a catalog of galaxies observed in the X-ray band with the Einstein Observatory imaging instruments, the Imaging Proportional Counter (IPC) and the High Resolution Imager (HRI). The catalog comprises 716 observations of 493 galaxies, including those that were targets of pointed observations, and galaxies from the Revised Shapley-Ames (RSA) Catalog of Bright Galaxies and the Second Revised Catalog (RC2) Catalog of Bright Galaxies that were serendipitously included in Einstein fields, plus X-ray data on 4 other galaxies (LMC, SMC, M 31 = NGC 224, and M 32 = NGC 221) taken from the literature, for a total of 720 entries. A total of 450 of these galaxies were imaged well within the instrumental fields, resulting in 238 detections and 212 3-sigma upper limits. The other galaxies were either at the edge of the visible field of view or were confused with other X-ray sources. This database was created by the HEASARC in January 2002 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/ApJS/80/531">CDS Catalog J/ApJS/80/531</a>, tables gxatlas.dat and gxfluxes.dat.

Title:
Catalog of galaxy groups from DEEP2 Redshift Survey
Short Name:
J/ApJ/751/50
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a public catalog of galaxy groups constructed from the spectroscopic sample of galaxies in the fourth data release from the Deep Extragalactic Evolutionary Probe 2 (DEEP2) Galaxy Redshift Survey, including the Extended Groth Strip (EGS). The catalog contains 1165 groups with two or more members in the EGS over the redshift range 0<z<1.5 and 1295 groups at z>0.6 in the rest of DEEP2. 25% of EGS galaxies and 14% of high-z DEEP2 galaxies are assigned to galaxy groups. The groups were detected using the Voronoi-Delaunay method (VDM) after it has been optimized on mock DEEP2 catalogs following similar methods to those employed in Gerke et al (2005, J/ApJ/625/6). In the optimization effort, we have taken particular care to ensure that the mock catalogs resemble the data as closely as possible, and we have fine-tuned our methods separately on mocks constructed for the EGS and the rest of DEEP2. We have also probed the effect of the assumed cosmology on our inferred group-finding efficiency by performing our optimization on three different mock catalogs with different background cosmologies, finding large differences in the group-finding success we can achieve for these different mocks. Using the mock catalog whose background cosmology is most consistent with current data, we estimate that the DEEP2 group catalog is 72% complete and 61% pure (74% and 67% for the EGS) and that the group finder correctly classifies 70% of galaxies that truly belong to groups, with an additional 46% of interloper galaxies contaminating the catalog (66% and 43% for the EGS). We also confirm that the VDM catalog reconstructs the abundance of galaxy groups with velocity dispersions above ~300 km/s to an accuracy better than the sample variance, and this successful reconstruction is not strongly dependent on cosmology.
2165. Catalog of galaxy morphology in four clusters

Title:
Catalog of galaxy morphology in four clusters
Short Name:
J/ApJS/157/228
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging of four rich, X-ray-luminous, galaxy clusters (0.33<z<0.83) is used to produce quantitative morphological measurements for galaxies in their fields. Catalogs of these measurements are presented for 1642 galaxies brighter than F814W(AB)=23.0. Galaxy luminosity profiles are fitted with three models: exponential disk, de Vaucouleurs bulge, and a disk-plus-bulge hybrid model. The best fit is selected and produces a quantitative assessment of the morphology of each galaxy: the principal parameters derived being B/T, the ratio of bulge to total luminosity, the scale lengths and half-light radii, axial ratios, position angles, and surface brightnesses of each component. Cluster membership is determined using a statistical correction for field galaxy contamination, and a mass normalization factor (mass within boundaries of the observed fields) is derived for each cluster. Morphological classes are defined using B/T: disk galaxies have 0<=B/T<=0.4, intermediate galaxies 0.4<B/T<0.8, and bulge-dominated galaxies have 0.8<=B/T<=1.
2166. Catalog of galaxy structures based on the MRSS

Title:
Catalog of galaxy structures based on the MRSS
Short Name:
J/other/JAD/12.1
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a catalogue of galaxy structures (groups and clusters) found in an area of 5000 square degrees in the southern hemisphere. The catalogue, which we call the PF Catalogue, was created by making use of galaxy positions and magnitudes given in the Muenster Red Sky Survey (MRSS, 2003JAD.....9....1U). We applied an automated procedure for structure finding, involving the Voronoi tessellation. The completeness limit for galaxies in the MRSS is r_F_=18.3m. Therefore, the present version of the PF Catalogue is based on galaxies brighter than this limit. In order to be included in the PF Catalogue, a structure must have at least 10 members in a magnitude range m_3_, m_3_+3^m^. We found 6188 structures which are listed in the present catalogue. The PF Catalogue contains positions, radii, areas, number of galaxies within the magnitude limit m_3_, m_3_+3^m^, a number estimation of background galaxies; ellipticity and position angle for each structure, as well as the magnitudes of the first, the third and the tenth galaxies in a structure, taken from the MRSS.
2167. Catalog of Gamma-Ray Bursts

Title:
Catalog of Gamma-Ray Bursts
Short Name:
GRBCAT
Date:

Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
This GRBs Catalog (GRBCAT) records high level information of the GRBs detected since their discovery in 1967. The catalog has been created using publications that report lists of GRB detections. These are mostly papers already published in refereed journals, unpublished papers, and PhD thesis presenting lists of GRBs. GRBCAT includes also compilation of bursts that were already present in the HEASARC database system. The catalog is organized with a main table reporting general information for each GRB and additional tables linked to the main table where specific information for the flux and the region of detection are reported. Afterglow measurements are also recorded in a separate table for all bursts detected after May 11 1996. The main table for each GRB contains an entry for each satellite that reports a detection with either a flux and/or position measurement. Therefore for a given GRB there are multiple records if the GRB was detected by more than one satellite. The associated flux table contains an entry for each flux and fluence values reported in literature for a given energy band. The positional information is reported via different tables each dedicated to a specific region of detection. The region descriptions are the following : circle, annulus, box, dual, annulus intersect, irregular, and intersect. The associated afterglow table contains position, intensity and redshift measurements taken after the discovery of the GRB. There are several records associated to a given GRB/afterglow since several observatories collected data on that position. The main table and the associated tables are updated when a new GRB and/or afterglow measurements are reported. This table was ingested by the HEASARC in June 2008 based on electronic versions obtained from the author(s), who compiled the catalog in 2005. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

Title:
Catalog of Gamma-Ray Bursts: Afterglows
Short Name:
GRBCATAG
Date:

Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
The GRB Afterglow table contains intensity and redshift measurements obtained with ground based telescopes or with space based observatories carried out after the detection of the GRBs. The catalog has been created using information from journal publications, IAU circulars, and GCN notices, and records afterglow measurements for bursts detected after May 1996. Each record within this catalog is dedicated to a specific measurement of an afterglow made with an observatory. Therefore for a given GRB, there are several entries reporting afterglow measurements from the different observatories. This catalog is linked to the main GRB catalog and it is updated when a new GRB and/or afterglow measurements are reported. This table was ingested by the HEASARC in June 2008 based on electronic versions obtained from the author(s), who compiled the catalog in 2005. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
2169. Catalog of 5 GHz Galactic Plane Sources
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/VIII/20
Title:
Catalog of 5 GHz Galactic Plane Sources
Short Name:
VIII/20
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This is a catalog of 915 sources in the galactic plane between l=190 - 360 - 40 for -2 < b < 2. The l, b pair of galactic coordinates is given in columns 1 and 2 and essentially constitutes the galactic source name. The 1950 equatorial coordinates for each source are given in columns 3 and 4, and values for the peak brightness temperature and flux density are given in columns 5 and 6. The reader should refer to Section 3 of the source reference for information relating to the determination of the flux densities. Column 7 gives an estimate of the source extension in minutes of arc. Extents are given for source in nonconfused regions only. Finally, in column 8 comments on each source are included where appropriate. Identifications with known supernova remnants are included from the compilation of Clark and Caswell (1976MNRAS.174..267C). Identifications with HII regions are based principally on H109alpha recombination-line emission data, which are mostly obtained from Wilson et al. (1970A&A.....6..364W) but with some unpublished Parkes observations included also.
2170. Catalog of giant radio sources known to date

Title:
Catalog of giant radio sources known to date
Short Name:
J/ApJS/238/9
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a catalog of 349 giant radio sources (GRSs including both galaxies and quasars). The database contains all giants known to date from the literature. These GRSs cover the redshift range of 0.016<z<3.22 and include radio sources of projected linear sizes larger than 0.7Mpc, which extend up to 4.7Mpc. We provide the principal parameters (i.e., exact position of the host in the sky, redshift, angular and projected linear size, red optical magnitude, radio morphology type, total radio flux density, and luminosity) for all the sources, as well as characteristics of the sample. Based on the distribution of GRSs in the sky, we identify regions where there is a paucity of giants, so that future surveys for this type of objects could concentrate primarily in these fields. From the analysis presented here, we estimate a lower limit for the expected number of GRSs as about 2000, for the resolution and sensitivity limits of FIRST, NRAO VLA Sky Survey and Sloan Digital Sky Survey surveys. Compared with earlier compilations, there is a significant increase in the number of large giants with sizes >2Mpc, as well as those at high redshifts with z>1. We discuss aspects of their evolution and suggest that these are consistent with evolutionary models.
