- Description:
- We measure the relation between galaxy luminosity and disk circular velocity (the Tully-Fisher [TF] relation), in the g, r, i, and z bands, for a broadly selected sample of galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, with the goal of providing well-defined observational constraints for theoretical models of galaxy formation. The input sample of 234 galaxies has a roughly flat distribution of absolute magnitudes in the range -18.5>M_r_>-22, and our only morphological selection is an isophotal axis ratio cut b/a<=0.6 to allow accurate inclination corrections. Long-slit spectroscopy from the Calar Alto and MDM observatories yields usable Halpha rotation curves for 162 galaxies (69%), with a representative color and morphology distribution. We define circular velocities V_80_ by evaluating the rotation curve at the radius containing 80% of the i-band light.

- Description:
- Observational parameters which can be used for redshift-independent distance determination using the Tully-Fisher (TF) technique are given for 782 spiral galaxies in the fields of 24 clusters or groups. I band photometry for the full sample was either obtained by us or compiled from published literature. Rotational velocities are derived either from 21 cm spectra or optical emission line long-slit spectra, and converted to a homogeneous scale. In addition to presenting the data, a discussion of the various sources of error on TF parameters is introduced, and the criteria for the assignment of membership to each cluster are given.

- Description:
- Local and intermediate redshift (z~0.5) galaxy samples obey well correlated relations between the stellar population luminosity and maximal galaxy rotation that define the TullyFisher (TF) relation. Consensus is starting to be reached on the TF relation at z~0.5, but work at significantly higher redshifts is even more challenging, and has been limited by small galaxy sample sizes, the intrinsic scatter of galaxy properties, and increasing observational uncertainties. We present here the TF measurements of 41 galaxies at relatively high redshift, spectroscopically observed with the Keck/DEIMOS instrument by the DEEP2 project, a survey which will eventually offer a large galaxy sample of the greatest depth and number yet achieved towards this purpose. The first-look sample analyzed here has a redshift range of 0.75<z<1.3 with <z>=0.85 and an intrinsic magnitude range from M_B_ of -22.66 to -20.57 (Vega). We find that compared to local fiducial samples, a brightening of 1.5mag is observed, and consistent with passive evolutionary models.

- Description:
- The observations presented in table 3 were made by using the 1.03m Dall-Kirkham-type telescope (f/8.45) of Tuorla Observatory with a SBIG ST-8 CCD-camera and a standard V-band filter. Table 4 includes data (B-, V- , and R-bands) observed at the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) on La Palma. Corrections for dark-current effects, additive effects (bias) and multiplicative effects (flatfield) were applied. Due to the relatively small field of view of the telescope separate frames of comparison stars were exposed for Mrk 421 and 4C 29.45. For the other objects normal differential photometry methods were applied. Exposure times with the Tuorla 1.03 meter telescope were between 60 and 240 seconds for objects brighter than 16 mag. For fainter objects, we have combined several exposures to achieve a sufficiently high signal to noise ratio.

- Turin-SyCAT, Seyferts multifrequency catalog
- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present the first release of Turin-SyCAT, a multifrequency catalog of Seyfert galaxies. We selected Seyfert galaxies considering criteria based on radio, infrared, and optical properties and starting from sources belonging to hard X-ray catalogs and surveys. We visually inspected optical spectra available for all selected sources. We adopted homogeneous and stringent criteria in the source selection aiming at reducing the possible contamination from other source classes. Our final catalog includes 351 Seyfert galaxies distinguished in 233 type 1 and 118 type 2. Type 1 Seyfert galaxies appear to have mid-IR colors similar to blazars, but are distinguished from them by their radio-loudness. Additionally, Seyfert 2 galaxies have mid-IR colors more similar to quasars than BL Lac objects. As expected from their spectral properties, type 1 and 2 Seyfert galaxies show a clear distinction when using the u-r color. Finally, we found a tight correlation between the mid-IR fluxes at both 12 and 22 um (i.e., F12 and F22, respectively) and hard X-ray fluxes between 15 and 150 keV. Both Seyfert types appear to follow the same trend and share similar values of the ratios of F12 and F22 to FHX in agreement with expectations of the AGN unification scenario. As future perspectives, the Turin-SyCAT will then be used to search for heavily obscured Seyfert galaxies among unidentified hard X-ray sources, given the correlation between mid-IR and hard X-rays, and to investigate their large-scale environments.

- TU UMa light curves and maxima, CL Aur minima
- Short Name:

- Description:
- Recent statistical studies prove that the percentage of RR Lyrae pulsators that are located in binaries or multiple stellar systems is considerably lower than might be expected. This can be better understood from an in-depth analysis of individual candidates. We investigate in detail the light time effect of the most probable binary candidate TU UMa. This is complicated because the pulsation period shows secular variation. We model possible light time effect of TU UMa using a new code applied on previously available and newly determined maxima timings to confirm binarity and refine parameters of the orbit of the RRab component in the binary system. The binary hypothesis is also tested using radial velocity measurements. We used new approach to determine brightness maxima timings based on template fitting. This can also be used on sparse or scattered data. This approach was successfully applied on measurements from different sources. To determine the orbital parameters of the double star TU UMa, we developed a new code to analyse light time effect that also includes secular variation in the pulsation period. Its usability was successfully tested on CL Aur, an eclipsing binary with mass-transfer in a triple system that shows similar changes in the O-C diagram. Since orbital motion would cause systematic shifts in mean radial velocities (dominated by pulsations), we computed and compared our model with centre-of-mass velocities. They were determined using high-quality templates of radial velocity curves of RRab stars. Maxima timings adopted from the GEOS database (168) together with those newly determined from sky surveys and new measurements (85) were used to construct an O-C diagram spanning almost five proposed orbital cycles. This data set is three times larger than data sets used by previous authors. Modelling of the O-C dependence resulted in 23.3-year orbital period, which translates into a minimum mass of the second component of about 0.33Ms. Secular changes in the pulsation period of TU UMa over the whole O-C diagram were satisfactorily approximated by a parabolic trend with a rate of -2.2ms/yr. To confirm binarity, we used radial velocity measurements from nine independent sources. Although our results are convincing, additional long-term monitoring is necessary to unambiguously confirm the binarity of TU UMa.
6967. TV Boo V light curve

- Description:
- This study investigates periodic modulation of the light curve of the RRc star TV Boo and its physical parameters based on photometric data. This phenomenon, known as the Blazhko effect, is quite rare among RRc stars. The frequency analysis based on the data gathered at the Masaryk University Observatory (MUO) and also using SuperWASP data revealed symmetrically structured peaks around the main pulsation frequency and its harmonics, which indicate two modulation components of the Blazhko period. The main modulation periodicity was found to be 9.7374+/-0.0054d. This is one of the shortest known Blazhko periods among RRc stars. The second modulation period (21.5+/-0.2d) causes changes of the Blazhko effect itself. Some indices show that TV Boo could be affected by long-term changes of the order of years. Basic physical parameters were estimated via an MUO V light-curve solution using Fourier parameters. TV Boo seems to be a low-metallicity star with [Fe/H]=-1.89.

- Description:
- The catalog, giving sources of emission in the 2.2-micrometer region for more than 5000 stars, represents a systematic survey of the Northern Hemisphere for stars brighter than third magnitude. The survey was carried out with a telescope at Mount Wilson, California, having a 62-inch diameter and an f/l aluminized epoxy mirror mounted equatorially. Radiation at an effective wavelength of 2.2 micrometers was detected by a lead sulfide photoconductive cell cooled by liquid nitrogen. In addition to the 2.2-micrometer detector array, radiation at an effective wavelength of 0.84 micrometers was detected by a simple silicon photovoltaic cell. The catalog includes right ascension and declination (B1950.0), K and I magnitudes, number of measurements, V magnitude, spectral types, cross identifications to the numbering systems of the General Catalogue, the Durchmusterung catalogs, the Bright Star Catalogue, and star names.

- Description:
- I report on the discovery of two cataclysmic variables in the same field in Lyra, originally identified on the base of their magnitudes in the USNO-B1.0 catalog and on Palomar images. The historical light curves were analyzed from 300+ photographic plates of the Moscow collection, covering 35 years of observations. One of the two stars, USNO-B1.0 1320-0390658, is showing rather frequent outbursts from B~20 to B=15.2 and is likely a dwarf nova of the UGSS subtype. The other variable, USNO-B1.0 1321-0397655, with only one observed outburst in 1993, from B~19 to I=11.8, is either an UGWZ dwarf nova or a recurrent nova. In both cases, its next outburst can occur in the nearest future.
