- VISTA ZJKs photometry of Sgr dSph

- Description:
- We present the deepest near-infrared (ZJKs) photometry yet obtained of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal (Sgr dSph), using Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA) to survey 11 square degrees centred on its core. We list locations and ZJKs-band magnitudes for over 2.9 million sources in the field. We discuss the isolation of the Sgr dSph from the foreground and Galactic Bulge populations, identify the Sgr dSph's horizontal branch in the near-infrared for the first time and map the density of the galaxy's stars. We present isochrones for the Sgr dSph and Bulge populations. These are consistent with the previously reported properties of the Sgr dSph core: namely that it is dominated by a population between [Fe/H]~-1dex and solar, with a significant [{alpha}/Fe] versus [Fe/H] gradient. While strong contamination from the Galactic Bulge prevents accurate measurement of the (Galactic) north side of the Sgr dSph, the dwarf galaxy can be well approximated by a roughly ovaloid projection of characteristic size 4{deg}x2{deg}, beyond which the projected stellar density is less than half that of the region surrounding the core. The galaxy's major axis is perpendicular to the Galactic Plane, as in previous studies. We find slight evidence to confirm a metallicity gradient in the Sgr dSph and use isochrones to fit a distance of 24.3+/-2.3kpc. We were unable to fully constrain the metallicity distribution of the Sgr dSph due to the Bulge contamination and strong correlation of [{alpha}/Fe] with metallicity; however, we find that metal-poor stars ([Fe/H]<~-1) make up <~29% of the Sgr dSph's upper red giant branch population. The Bulge population is best fitted by a younger population with [Fe/H] {approx} 0 and [{alpha}/Fe] {approx} 0 or slightly higher. We find no evidence for a split, peanut- or X-shaped Bulge population in this line of sight (l=5.6+/-~1{deg}, b=-14.1+/-~3{deg}).

- Visual analysis and demographics of Kepler TTVs
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/157/171
- Date:

- Description:
- We visually analyzed the transit timing variation (TTV) data of 5930 Kepler Objects of Interest (KOIs) homogeneously. Using data from Rowe et al. (2014, J/ApJ/784/45) and Holczer et al. (2015, J/ApJ/807/170; 2016, J/ApJS/225/9), we investigated TTVs for nearly all KOIs in Kepler's Data Release 24 catalog. Using TTV plots, periodograms, and phase-folded quadratic plus sinusoid fits, we visually rated each KOI's TTV data in five categories. Our ratings emphasize the hundreds of planets with TTVs that are weaker than the ~200 that have been studied in detail. Our findings are consistent with statistical methods for identifying strong TTVs, though we found some additional systems worth investigation. Between about 3-50 days and 1.3-6 Earth radii, the frequency of strong TTVs increases with period and radius. As expected, strong TTVs are very common when period ratios are near a resonance, but there is not a one-to-one correspondence. The observed planet-by-planet frequency of strong TTVs is only somewhat lower in systems with one or two known planets (7%+/-1%) than in systems with three or more known planets (11%+/-2%). We attribute TTVs to known planets in multitransiting systems but find ~30 cases where the perturbing planet is unknown. Our conclusions are valuable as an ensemble for learning about planetary system architectures and individually as stepping stones toward more-detailed mass-radius constraints. We also discuss Data Release 25 TTVs, investigate ~100 KOIs with transit duration and/or depth variations, and estimate that the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite will likely find only ~10 planets with strong TTVs.

- Visual binaries in the Orion Nebula Cluster
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have carried out a major survey for visual binaries toward the Orion Nebula Cluster, using images obtained with the Advanced Camera for Surveys on the Hubble Space Telescope through an Halpha filter. From 1051 stars more than 60" from theta^1^ Ori C, we have selected 781 that fulfill the criteria for membership in the Orion Nebula Cluster. Among these, we find 78 multiple systems (75 binaries and 3 triples), of which 55 are new discoveries, in the range from 0.1" to 1.5". We perform a statistical study of the 72 binaries and 3 triples that have separations in the limited range 0.15" to 1.5", within which we need no incompleteness correction.

- VIsual Binary Exoplanet survey with SPHERE
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/643/A98
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Recent surveys indicate that planets in binary systems are more abunda- nt than previously thought, which is in agreement with theoretical work on disc dynamics and planet formation in binaries. So far, most observational surveys, however, have focused on short-period planets in binaries, thus little is known about the occurrence rates of planets on longer periods (>10au). In order to measure the abundance and physical characteristics of wide-orbit giant exoplanets in binary systems, we have designed the 'VIsual Binary Exoplanet survey with Sphere' (VIBES) to search for planets in visual binaries. It uses the SPHERE instrument at VLT to search for planets in 23 visual binary and four visual triple systems with ages of <145Myr and distances of <150pc. We used the IRDIS dual-band imager on SPHERE to acquire high-contrast images of the sample targets. For each binary, the two components were observed at the same time with a coronagraph masking only the primary star. For the triple star, the tight components were treated as a single star for data reduction. This enabled us to effectively search for companions around 50 individual stars in binaries and four binaries in triples. We derived upper limits of <13.7% for the frequency of sub-stellar companions around primaries in visual binaries, <26.5% for the fraction of sub-stellar companions around secondaries in visual binaries, and an occurrence rate of <9.0% for giant planets and brown dwarfs around either component of visual binaries. We have combined our observations with literature measurements to astrometrically confirm, for the first time, that 20 binaries and two triple systems, which were previously known, are indeed physically bound. Finally, we discovered a third component of the binary HD 121336. The upper limits we derived are compatible with planet formation through the core accretion and the gravitational instability processes in binaries. These limits are also in line with limits found for single star and circumbinary planet search surveys.

- CDS
- Description:
- This catalogue is the only complete list of all known double and multiple systems (18644) of which at least one component was identified in the Hipparcos final catalog in July 1997 (Cat. <I/239>), including the 2994 systems newly discovered by the satellite, as well as the 155 new astrometric orbital pairs also discovered by the satellite (Dommanget, 2000Obs...120..202D), and also the 38 new astrometric binaries components of known systems. It may be considered as a subset of the CCDM as existing in 1998 of which a first edition appeared in 1994 (Cat. <I/211>), and of which a second edition containing more than 45,000 systems is being prepared for publication. Consequently, the format of this list is that of the CCDM for which all information may be found in the introduction of its 1994 published version (as file I/211/ccdm.doc) The format of this catalogue is the same as the CCDM (Cat. <I/211>)

- Description:
- Astrophysical parameters (MK class, colour excess, absolute magnitude, distance, effective temperature, mass and age) are derived from calibrations of the uvbybeta indices for the members of 253 double stars with O or B type primaries and faint secondaries. The photometric spectral classification is compared to the MK classes and the agreement is very good. The derived data together with spectroscopic and JHKL data indicate that these stars are likely to be members of physical systems. For 90% of the physical pairs the projected separations between the components is less than 25,000 AU. A majority of the physical secondaries are late type stars and 50% of them are contracting towards the zero-age main-sequence (ZAMS).
