- Description:
- We present new radial and rotational velocities for 595 nearby early F dwarfs, based on digital spectra cross-correlated with individually optimised synthetic template spectra. The selection of optimum templates, the determination of rotational velocities, and the extraction of velocities from the blended spectra of double-lined spectroscopic binaries are discussed in some detail. We find 170 spectroscopic binaries in the sample and determine orbits for 18 double-lined and 2 single-lined binaries, including some spectroscopic triples. 73 stars are listed with too rapid rotation to yield useful radial velocities (i.e. vsini>120km/s). We discuss the binary frequency in the sample, and the influence of unrecognised binaries on the definition of clean metallicity groups of young F dwarfs and the determination of their kinematical properties.

- Description:
- We present an investigation of the optical spectra of 264 low-redshift (z<0.2) Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered by the Palomar Transient Factory, an untargeted transient survey. We focus on velocity and pseudo-equivalent width measurements of the SiII 4130, 5972, and 6355{AA} lines, as well those of the CaII near-infrared (NIR) triplet, up to +5days relative to the SN B-band maximum light. We find that a high-velocity component of the CaII NIR triplet is needed to explain the spectrum in ~95% of SNe Ia observed before -5days, decreasing to ~80% at maximum. The average velocity of the CaII high-velocity component is ~8500km/s higher than the photospheric component. We confirm previous results that SNe Ia around maximum light with a larger contribution from the high-velocity component relative to the photospheric component in their CaII NIR feature have, on average, broader light curves and lower CaII NIR photospheric velocities. We find that these relations are driven by both a stronger high-velocity component and a weaker contribution from the photospheric CaII NIR component in broader light curve SNe Ia. We identify the presence of CII in very-early-time SN Ia spectra (before -10days), finding that >40% of SNe Ia observed at these phases show signs of unburnt material in their spectra, and that CII features are more likely to be found in SNe Ia having narrower light curves.

- Velocities and light curves of V350 Sgr

- Description:
- "The Cepheid Mass Problem" is one of the fundamental tests of the understanding of stellar evolution. One of the foundations of measured masses for Cepheids for this question is binary orbits. V350 Sgr is a classical Cepheid in a binary system. New radial velocity data for the system have been obtained over the last several years, and are used to update the orbit. The secondary in the system has previously had its orbital velocity amplitude measured in the ultraviolet with the Hubble Space Telescope. This amplitude has been combined with the new orbit and the adopted mass of the secondary resulting in a Cepheid mass of 5.0+/-0.8M_{sun}_.

- Velocities and Photometry for E and S0 galaxies

- Publisher:

- Description:
- (Abstract from the paper) New spectroscopy and photometry have been obtained for 136 elliptical and S0 galaxies in the direction of the large-scale streaming flow attributed to the great attractor. Measurements of central velocity dispersion (sigma), total B magnitudes (B_T), the photometric parameter D_n, and the absorption-line index Mgi_2 are presented. Both internal and external comparisons indicate that measurements of log{sigma} are accurate to 0.05 dex, B_T to 0.15 mag, D_n to 0.015 dex, and Mg_2 to 0.017 mag. These data have been used in a previous paper by Dressler and Faber to estimate distances for these galaxies via the D_n - {sigma} relation. It is shown in this paper that the D_n - Mg_2 relation also predicts the same trends of peculiar velocity with distance, but with less accuracy. The relative accuracy of other distance indicators for elliptical galaxies is also discussed.

- Velocities and photometry in NGC 2112
- Short Name:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We report on a new, wide-field (20x20arcmin^2^), multicolour (UBVI), photometric campaign in the area of the nearby old open cluster NGC 2112. At the same time, we provide medium-resolution spectroscopy of 35 (and high-resolution of additional 5) red giant and turn-off stars. This material is analysed with the aim to update the fundamental parameters of this traditionally difficult cluster, which is very sparse and suffers from heavy field star contamination. Among the 40 stars with spectra, we identified 21 bona fide radial velocity members which allow us to put more solid constraints on the cluster's metal abundance, long suggested to be as low as the metallicity of globulars. As indicated earlier by us on a purely photometric basis, the cluster [Fe/H] abundance is slightly supersolar ([Fe/H]=0.16+/-0.03) and close to the Hyades value, as inferred from a detailed abundance analysis of three of the five stars with higher resolution spectra. Abundance ratios are also marginally supersolar. Based on this result, we revise the properties of NGC 2112 using stellar models from the Padova and Yale-Yonsei groups.

- Description:
- Trumpler 20 is an old open cluster (OC) located toward the Galactic centre, at about 3kpc from the Sun and ~7kpc from the Galactic centre. Its position makes this cluster particularly interesting in the framework of the chemical properties of the Galactic disc because very few old OCs reside in the inner part of the disc. For this reason it has been selected as a cluster target of the Gaia-ESO Survey, and spectra of many stars in the main sequence and red clump phases are now available. Moreover, although it has been studied by several authors in the past, no consensus on the evolutionary status of Tr 20 has been reached. The heavy contamination of field stars (the line of sight of Tr 20 crosses the Carina spiral arm) complicates the correct interpretation. Another interesting aspect of the cluster is that it shows a broadened main sequence turn-off and a prominent and extended red clump, characteristics that are not easily explained by classical evolutionary models. Exploiting both spectroscopic information from the Gaia-ESO Survey (and the ESO archive) and literature photometry, we obtain a detailed and accurate analysis of the properties of the cluster. We make use of the first accurate metallicity measurement ever obtained from several spectra of red clump stars, and of cluster membership determination using radial velocities. According to the evolutionary models adopted, we find that Tr 20 has an age in the range 1.35-1.66Gyr, an average reddening E(B-V) in the range 0.31-0.35mag, a distance modulus (m-M)_0_ between 12.64 and 12.72mag. The spectroscopic metallicity is [Fe/H]=+0.17dex. We discuss the structural properties of the object and constrain possible hypotheses for its broadened upper main sequence, by estimating the effect of differential reddening, and its extended red clump.

- Velocities and proper motions of Galactic Cepheids

- Description:
- The kinematics and distribution of classical Cepheids within ~3 kpc from the Sun suggest the existence of the outer ring R1R2' in the Galaxy. The optimum value of the solar position angle with respect to the major axis of the bar, theta_b, providing the best agreement between the distribution of Cepheids and model particles is theta_b_=37+/-13{deg}. The kinematical features obtained for Cepheids with negative Galactocentric radial velocity V_R_ are consistent with the solar location near the descending segment of the outer ring R2. The sharp rise of extinction toward of the Galactic center can be explained by the presence of the outer ring R1 near the Sun.

- Description:
- We present the discovery of Kepler-88d (P_d_=1403{+/-}14days, Msin_i_d__=965{+/-}44M_{Earth}_=3.04{+/-}0.13M_J_, e_d_=0.41{+/-}0.03) based on six years of radial velocity (RV) follow-up from the W.M.Keck Observatory High Resolution Echelle Spectrometer spectrograph. Kepler-88 has two previously identified planets. Kepler-88b (KOI-142.01) transits in the NASA Kepler photometry and has very large transit timing variations (TTVs). Nesvorny+, performed a dynamical analysis of the TTVs to uniquely identify the orbital period and mass of the perturbing planet (Kepler-88c), which was later was confirmed with RVs from the Observatoire de Haute-Provence (OHP). To fully explore the architecture of this system, we performed photodynamical modeling on the Kepler photometry combined with the RVs from Keck and OHP and stellar parameters from spectroscopy and Gaia. Planet d is not detectable in the photometry, and long-baseline RVs are needed to ascertain its presence. A photodynamical model simultaneously optimized to fit the RVs and Kepler photometry yields the most precise planet masses and orbital properties yet for b and c: P_b_=10.91647{+/-}0.00014days, M_b_=9.5{+/-}1.2M_{Earth}_, P_c_=22.2649{+/-}0.0007days, and M_c=214.0{+/-}5.3M_{Earth}_. The photodynamical solution also finds that planets b and c have low eccentricites and low mutual inclination, are apsidally anti-aligned, and have conjunctions on the same hemisphere of the star. Continued RV follow-up of systems with small planets will improve our understanding of the link between inner planetary system architectures and giant planets.

- Velocities and Washington photometry in Carina dSph
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- A new large-area Washington M, T2+DDO51 filter survey of more than 10deg^2^ around the Carina dSph galaxy reveals a spectroscopically confirmed power-law radial density break population of Carina giant stars extending several degrees beyond the central King profile. Magellan telescope MIKE spectroscopy establishes the existence of Carina stars to at least 4.5 times its central King limiting radius, rlim, and primarily along Carina's major axis. To keep these stars bound to the dSph would require a global Carina mass-to-light ratio of M/L>=6300(M/L)_{sun}}. The MIKE velocities, supplemented with ~950 additional Carina field velocities from archived VLT+GIRAFFE spectra with r<~rlim, demonstrate a nearly constant Carina velocity dispersion (sigma_v_) to just beyond r=rlim and both a rising and a velocity shear at still larger radii. Together, the observational evidence suggests that the discovered extended Carina population represents tidal debris from the dSph.

- Description:
- We present seven new transiting hot Jupiters from the WASP-South survey. The planets are all typical hot Jupiters orbiting stars from F4 to K0 with magnitudes of V=10.3-12.5. The orbital periods are all in the range of 3.9-4.6d, the planetary masses range from 0.4 to 2.3-M_Jup_ and the radii from 1.1 to 1.4R_Jup_. In line with known hot Jupiters, the planetary densities range from Jupiter-like to inflated ({rho}=0.13-1.07{rho}_Jup_). We use the increasing numbers of known hot Jupiters to investigate the distribution of their orbital periods and the 3-4d 'pile-up'.
