- Description:
- We report the observations of 289 methanol maser sources at 6.7GHz obtained over a two month period with the Torun 32m telescope. The data form a catalogue of all objects north of {delta}=22{deg} brighter than 7.5Jy in the peak emission. The positions of sub-arcsecond accuracy are updated for 76% of the objects. We find that about one third of the sources show changes in the peak fluxes by a factor of two or more on time scales of 8.5-9.5 years.

- Description:
- The goal of the Turn-Off Primordial Stars survey (TOPoS) project is to find and analyse turn-off (TO) stars of extremely low metallicity. To select the targets for spectroscopic follow-up at high spectral resolution, we relied on low-resolution spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). In this paper, we use the metallicity estimates we obtained from our analysis of the SDSS spectra to construct the metallicity distribution function (MDF) of the Milky Way, with special emphasis on its metal-weak tail. The goal is to provide the underlying distribution out of which the TOPoS sample was extracted. We made use of SDSS photometry, Gaia photometry, and distance estimates derived from the Gaia parallaxes to derive a metallicity estimate for a large sample of over 24 million TO stars. This sample was used to derive the metallicity bias of the sample for which SDSS spectra are available. We determined that the spectroscopic sample is strongly biased in favour of metal-poor stars, as intended. A comparison with the unbiased photometric sample allows us to correct for the selection bias. We selected a sub-sample of stars with reliable parallaxes for which we combined the SDSS radial velocities with Gaia proper motions and parallaxes to compute actions and orbital parameters in the Galactic potential. This allowed us to characterise the stars dynamically, and in particular to select a sub-sample that belongs to the Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus (GSE) accretion event. We are thus also able to provide the MDF of GSE. The metal-weak tail derived in our study is very similar to that derived in the H3 survey and in the Hamburg/ESO Survey. This allows us to average the three MDFs and provide an error bar for each metallicity bin. Inasmuch as the GSE structure is representative of the progenitor galaxy that collided with the Milky Way, that galaxy appears to be strongly deficient in metal-poor stars compared to the Milky Way, suggesting that the metal-weak tail of the latter has been largely formed by accretion of low-mass galaxies rather than massive galaxies, such as the GSE progenitor.

- Total ALFALFA H I fluxes for extended sources
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/157/194
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- A procedure is presented to improve on measurement of total H I fluxes for extended sources in the Arecibo Legacy Fast Arecibo L-band Feed Array (ALFALFA) survey of neutral hydrogen sources in the nearby universe. A number of tests of the procedure are detailed, and we verify that we recover all of the flux measured with much larger telescope beams. Total fluxes are reported for all sources (1) exceeding 10 Jy km/s in the {alpha}.100 catalog (Haynes et al. 2018ApJ...861...49H), or (2) with Uppsala General Catalog (Cat. VII/26) diameters 3.0 arcmin or more, or (3) ALFALFA pipeline isophotal ellipse area more than 3.0 times the Arecibo beam. Total fluxes are also provided for a number of confused pairs and small groups including one or more of those high-flux sources. These data should be of use in baryonic Tully-Fisher studies and other applications where the measurement of the total reservoir of neutral atomic gas is important.

- Description:
- In the context of the Herschel HERM33ES open time key project, we are studying the moderately inclined Scd local group galaxy M33 which is located only 840kpc away. In this article, using Spitzer and Herschel data ranging from 3.6um to 500um, along with HI, H{alpha} maps, and Galaxy Evolution Explorer ultraviolet data, we have studied the emission of the dust at the high spatial resolution of 150pc. Combining Spitzer and Herschel bands, we have provided new, inclination-corrected, resolved estimators of the total infrared brightness and of the star formation rate from any combination of these bands. ---------------------------------------------------------- RA (2000) DE Designation(s) ---------------------------------------------------------- 01 33 50.90 +30 39 35.8 M33 = NGC 598 ----------------------------------------------------------

- Total lunar eclipse January 2019 spectra

- Description:
- Observations of the Earthshine o the Moon allow for the unique opportunity to measure the large-scale Earth atmosphere. Another opportunity is realized during a total lunar eclipse which, if seen from the Moon, is like a transit of the Earth in front of the Sun. We thus aim at transmission spectroscopy of an Earth transit by tracing the solar spectrum during the total lunar eclipse of January 21, 2019. Time series spectra of the Tycho crater were taken with the Potsdam Echelle Polarimetric and Spectroscopic Instrument (PEPSI) at the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) in its polarimetric mode in Stokes IQUV at a spectral resolution of 130000 (0.06{AA}). In particular, the spectra cover the red parts of the optical spectrum between 7419-9067{AA}. The spectrograph's exposure meter was used to obtain a light curve of the lunar eclipse. The brightness of the Moon dimmed by 10.75m during umbral eclipse. We found both branches of the O_2_ A-band almost completely saturated as well as a strong increase of H_2_O absorption during totality. A pseudo O_2_ emission feature remained at a wavelength of 7618{AA}, but it is actually only a residual from different P-branch and R-branch absorptions. It nevertheless traces the eclipse. The deep penumbral spectra show significant excess absorption from the NaI 5890{AA} doublet, the CaII infrared triplet around 8600{AA}, and the KI line at 7699{AA} in addition to several hyper-fine-structure lines of MnI and even from BaII. The detections of the latter two elements are likely due to an untypical solar center-to-limb eect rather than Earth's atmosphere. The absorption in CaII and KI remained visible throughout umbral eclipse. Our radial velocities trace a wavelength dependent Rossiter-McLaughlin eect of the Earth eclipsing the Sun as seen from the Tycho crater and thereby confirm earlier observations. A small continuum polarization of the O_2_ A-band of 0.12% during umbral eclipse was detected at 6.3. No line polarization of the O_2_ A-band, or any other spectral-line feature, is detected outside nor inside eclipse. It places an upper limit of 0.2% on the degree of line polarization during transmission through Earth's atmosphere and magnetosphere.

- Total-to-selective extinction ratio within 700pc

- Description:
- Multicolor photometry from the Tycho-2 and 2MASS catalogues for 11990 OB (2008AstL...34....7G; 2012AstL...38..694G) and 30671 K-type red giant branch stars (2011AstL...37..707G) is used to detect systematic large-scale variations of the interstellar extinction law within the nearest kiloparsec. The characteristic of the extinction law, the total-to-selective extinction ratio Rv, which also characterizes the size and other properties of interstellar dust grains, has been calculated for various regions of space by the extinction law extrapolation method. The results for the two classes of stars agree: the standard deviation of the "red giants minus OB" Rv differences within 500pc of the Sun is 0.2. The detected Rv variations between 2.2 and 4.4 not only manifest themselves in individual clouds but also span the entire space near the Sun, following Galactic structures. In the Local Bubble within about 100 pc of the Sun, Rv has a minimum. In the inner part of the Gould Belt and at high Galactic latitudes, at a distance of about 150 pc from the Sun, Rv reaches a maximum and then decreases to its minimum in the outer part of the Belt and other directions at a distance of about 500 pc from the Sun, returning to its mean values far from the Sun. The detected maximum of Rv at high Galactic latitudes is important when allowance is made for the interstellar extinction toward extragalactic objects. In addition, a monotonic increase in Rv by 0.3 per kpc toward the Galactic center has been found near the Galactic equator. It is consistent with the result obtained by Zasowski et al. (2009ApJ...707..510Z) for much of the Galaxy. Ignoring the Rv variations and traditionally using a single value for the entire space must lead to systematic errors in the calculated distances reaching 10%.

- Description:
- The U.S. Naval Observatory is in the process of making new reductions of the Astrographic Catalogue (AC) using a modern reference system, the ACRS, which represents the system of the FK5. The data from the Toulouse Zone, whose plates are centered between declinations +5 and +11 degrees (eq. 1900), have been analyzed for scale, rotation, tilt, coma, magnitude equation, radial distortion and distortions introduced by the use of reseaux in the Carte du Ciel program. The result is a positional catalog of almost 270,000 stars on eq. J2000.0, epoch of observation. Additionally, all stars have been matched with the Tycho Input Catalog (revised); those numbers have been added for additional identification purposes.

- Description:
- In this study, we present an update of a compilation of line width measurements of neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) galaxy spectra at 21 cm wavelength. Our All Digital HI (ADHI) catalog consists of the previous release augmented with our new HI observations and an analysis of archival data. This study provides the required HI information to measure the distances of spiral galaxies through the application of the Tully-Fisher (TF) relation. We conducted observations at the Green Bank telescope (GBT) and reprocessed spectra obtained at the Nancay radiotelescope by the Nancay Interstellar Baryons Legacy Extragalactic Survey (NIBLES) and Kinematics of the Local Universe (KLUN) collaborations and we analyzed the recently published full completion Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA (ALFALFA) 100% survey in order to identify galaxies with good quality HI line width measurements. This paper adds new HI data adequate for TF use for 385 galaxies observed at GBT, 889 galaxies from archival Nancay spectra, and 1515 rescaled Arecibo ALFALFA spectra. In total, this release adds 1274 new good quality measurements to the ADHI catalog. Today, the ADHI database contains 18,874 galaxies, for which 15,433 have good quality data for TF use. The final goal is to compute accurate distances to spiral galaxies, which will be included in the next generation of peculiar velocities catalog: Cosmicflows-4.
