- Description:
- The ~200000 targets monitored for photometric variability during the Kepler prime mission include the best-studied group of stars in the sky, due both to the extensive time history provided by Kepler and to the substantial amount of ancillary data provided by other investigators or compiled by the Kepler team. To complement this wealth of data, we surveyed the entire Kepler field using the 3.6 and 4.5{mu}m bands of the Warm Spitzer Space Telescope, obtaining photometry in both bands for almost 170000 objects. We demonstrate relative photometric precision ranging from better than ~1.5% for the brighter stars down to slightly greater than ~2% for the faintest stars monitored by Kepler. We describe the data collection and analysis phases of this work and identify several stars with large infrared excess, although none that is also known to be the host of an exoplanetary system.

- Description:
- The survey description and the near-, mid-, and far-infrared flux properties are presented for the 258 galaxies in the Local Volume Legacy (LVL). LVL is a Spitzer Space Telescope legacy program that surveys the local universe out to 11Mpc, built upon a foundation of ultraviolet, H{alpha}, and Hubble Space Telescope imaging from 11HUGS (11Mpc H{alpha} and Ultraviolet Galaxy Survey, Cat. J/ApJS/178/247) and ANGST (ACS Nearby Galaxy Survey Treasury, 2009ApJS..183...67D). LVL covers an unbiased, representative, and statistically robust sample of nearby star-forming galaxies, exploiting the highest extragalactic spatial resolution achievable with Spitzer.

- Description:
- The Spitzer-SDSS-GALEX Spectroscopic Survey (SSGSS) provides a new sample of 101 star-forming galaxies at z<0.2 with unprecedented multi-wavelength coverage. New mid- to far-infrared spectroscopy from the Spitzer Space Telescope is added to a rich suite of previous imaging and spectroscopy, including ROSAT, Galaxy Evolution Explorer, Sloan Digital Sky Survey, Two Micron All Sky Survey, and Spitzer/SWIRE. Sample selection ensures an even coverage of the full range of normal galaxy properties, spanning two orders of magnitude in stellar mass, color, and dust attenuation. In this paper we present the SSGSS data set, describe the science drivers, and detail the sample selection, observations, data reduction, and quality assessment.

- CDS
- Description:
- The Spitzer Science Center and IRSA have released a set of Enhanced Imaging Products (SEIP) from the Spitzer Heritage Archive. These include Super Mosaics and a Source List (SL) of photometry for compact sources. The primary requirement on the Source List is very high reliability -- with areal coverage, completeness, and limiting depth being secondary considerations. The SEIP include data from the four channels of IRAC (3.6, 4.5, 5.8, 8 microns) and the 24 micron channel of MIPS. The full set of products for the Spitzer cryogenic mission includes around 42 million sources.

- Description:
- We present a catalog of emissive point sources detected in the SPT-SZ survey, a contiguous 2530 square degree area surveyed with the South Pole Telescope (SPT) from 2008-2011 in three bands centered at 95, 150, and 220GHz. The catalog contains 4845 sources measured at a significance of 4.5{sigma} or greater in at least one band, corresponding to detections above approximately 9.8, 5.8, and 20.4mJy in 95, 150, and 220GHz, respectively. The spectral behavior in the SPT bands is used for source classification into two populations based on the underlying physical mechanisms of compact, emissive sources that are bright at millimeter wavelengths: synchrotron radiation from active galactic nuclei and thermal emission from dust. The latter population includes a component of high-redshift sources often referred to as submillimeter galaxies (SMGs). In the relatively bright flux ranges probed by the survey, these sources are expected to be magnified by strong gravitational lensing. The survey also contains sources consistent with protoclusters, groups of dusty galaxies at high redshift undergoing collapse. We cross-match the SPT-SZ catalog with external catalogs at radio, infrared, and X-ray wavelengths and identify available redshift information. The catalog splits into 3980 synchrotron-dominated and 865 dust-dominated sources, and we determine a list of 506 SMGs. Ten sources in the catalog are identified as stars. We calculate number counts for the full catalog, and synchrotron and dusty components, using a bootstrap method and compare our measured counts with models. This paper represents the third and final catalog of point sources in the SPT-SZ survey.

- Description:
- In this paper we continue our investigation on the isophotal nature, accuracy, and uniformity of the magnitude system adopted in the Southern Sky Redshift Survey extension (SSRS2). Extending our earlier work, we examine galaxies in the equatorial region, primarily in the declination range -17.5 deg <= Dec. <= 0 deg, over a large range of right ascension, covering the southern and northern Galactic caps. For this purpose, we have obtained CCD isophotal magnitudes in the B and R bands for 265 galaxies of different morphological types. Using this larger sample we confirm our earlier claim that the m(SSRS2) magnitudes are very nearly the magnitude measured within the isophote mu_B = 26 mag/arcsec^2, with a dispersion of about 0.30 mag. The relative zero-point offset between our m(SSRS2) magnitudes and CCD photometry is -0.02 mag from all data we have obtained. However, we detect a variation of the zero-point across different regions of the sky of +/- 0.10 mag for regions at large angular separations. We also estimate that the zero-point offset between the m(SSRS2) and Zwicky systems is relatively small (~0.10 mag), which should allow us to combine the data from the SSRS2 and the CfA2 Redshift Survey.

- The star formation history of the LMC

- Description:
- We present the first ever global, spatially resolved reconstruction of the star formation history (SFH) of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), based on the application of our StarFISH analysis software to the multiband photometry of 20 million of its stars from the Magellanic Clouds Photometric Survey (MCPS). The general outlines of our results are consistent with previously published results: following an initial burst of star formation, there was a quiescent epoch from approximately 12 to 5Gyr ago. Star formation then resumed and has proceeded until the current time at an average rate of roughly 0.2M_{sun}_/yr, with temporal variations at the factor of 2 level.

- The stellar content of Trumpler 37

- Date:

- Description:
- With an apparent cluster diameter of 1.5deg and an age of ~4Myr, Trumpler 37 is an ideal target for photometric monitoring of young stars as well as for the search of planetary transits, eclipsing binaries and other sources of variability. The YETI consortium has monitored Trumpler 37 throughout 2010 and 2011 to obtain a comprehensive view of variable phenomena in this region. In this first paper we present the cluster properties and membership determination as derived from an extensive investigation of the literature. We also compared the coordinate list to some YETI images. For 1872 stars we found literature data. Among them 774 have high probability of being member and 125 a medium probability. Based on infrared data we re-calculate a cluster extinction of 0.9-1.2mag. We can confirm the age and distance to be 3-5Myr and ~870pc. Stellar masses are determined from theoretical models and the mass function is fitted with a power-law index of {alpha}=1.90 (0.1-0.4M_{sun}_) and {alpha}=1.12 (1-10M_{sun}_).

- The stellar membership of the Taurus SFR

- Description:
- The high-precision astrometry from the second data release of the Gaia mission (Cat. I/345) has made it possible to greatly improve the census of members of nearby clusters and associations. I have applied the Gaia data to the Taurus star-forming region, refining the sample of known members and identifying candidates for undiscovered members. The resulting samples of members and candidates provide the best constraints to date on the distribution of ages and the initial mass function (IMF) in Taurus. Several studies over the last 30 years have proposed the existence of a population of older stars (>~10 Myr) that is associated with the Taurus clouds. The data from Gaia demonstrate that such a population does not exist. Meanwhile, previous IMF estimates for small fields surrounding the Taurus aggregates have exhibited a surplus of K7-M0 stars (0.7-0.8 M_{sun}_) relative to star-forming clusters such as IC 348 and the Orion Nebula Cluster. However, that difference disappears when the new census of the entire region is considered, which should be complete for spectral types earlier than M6-M7 at A_J_<1. Thus, there is little variation in the stellar IMF across the 3-4 orders of magnitude in stellar density that are present in nearby star-forming regions. Finally, I note that the proper motions of two previously known members, KPNO 15 and 2MASS J04355209+2255039, indicate that they may have been ejected from the same location within the L1536 cloud ~7200 years ago.

- Description:
- The Stromlo-APM Redshift Survey consists of 1797 galaxies with b(J)<17.15 selected randomly at a rate of 1 in 20 from Automated Plate Measurement (APM) scans. The survey covers a solid angle of 1.3sr (4300 square degrees) in the south galactic cap. Redshifts have been measured for 1790 (99.6%) of the galaxies. The median galaxy recession velocity is 15,300 km/s and so the volume probed is approximately V=1.38 million Mpc^3/h^3.
