- Description:
- We report results from the Wide-orbit Exoplanet search with InfraRed Direct imaging, or WEIRD, a survey designed to search for Jupiter-like companions on very wide orbits (1000-5000 au) around young stars (<120 Myr) that are known members of moving groups in the solar neighborhood (<70 pc). Companions that share the same age, distance, and metallicity as their host while being on large enough orbits to be studied as "isolated" objects make prime targets for spectroscopic observations, and they are valuable benchmark objects for exoplanet atmosphere models. The search strategy is based on deep imaging in multiple bands across the near-infrared domain. For all 177 objects of our sample, z'_ab_, J, [3.6], and [4.5] images were obtained with CFHT/MegaCam, GEMINI/GMOS, CFHT/WIRCam, GEMINI/Flamingos-2, and Spitzer/IRAC. Using this set of four images per target, we searched for sources with red z'_ab_ and [3.6]-[4.5] colors, typically reaching good completeness down to 2 M_Jup_ companions, while going down to 1 M_Jup_ for some targets, at separations of 1000-5000 au. The search yielded four candidate companions with the expected colors, but they were all rejected through follow-up proper motion observations. Our results constrain the occurrence of 1-13 M_Jup_ planetary-mass companions on orbits with a semimajor axis between 1000 and 5000 au at less than 0.03, with a 95% confidence level.

- Description:
- Astrometric CCD observations have been made of wide (~3 to 60 arcsec) southern double stars selected from the Washington Double Star catalogue (WDS). Southern double stars have not been well studied in the past; typically they had not been measured since about 1930, and ~50% of them have been observed only once before our observations. Of the pairs measured ~80% show no evidence of motion since the last observation. This is Paper II in which we present the observations of 290 WDS stars in the approximate RA range 17h13m to 07h30m and in the declination range -70{deg} to -60{deg}. We suggest 412 companions for these 290 stars and list 29 (10%) pairs that have shown significant motion.

- Description:
- The WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey is a survey of 240000 emission-line galaxies in the distant Universe, measured with the AAOmega spectrograph on the 3.9-m Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT). The primary aim of the survey is to precisely measure the scale of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) imprinted on the spatial distribution of these galaxies at look-back times of 4-8Gyr. The target galaxies are selected using ultraviolet (UV) photometry from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer satellite, with a flux limit of NUV<22.8mag. We also require that the targets are detected at optical wavelengths, specifically in the range 20.0<r<22.5mag. We use the Lyman break method applied to the UV colours, with additional optical colour limits, to select high-redshift galaxies. The galaxies generally have strong emission lines, permitting reliable redshift measurements in relatively short exposure times on the AAT. The median redshift of the galaxies is z_med_=0.6. The redshift range containing 90 per cent of the galaxies is 0.2<z<1.0. The survey will sample a volume of ~1Gpc^3^ over a projected area on the sky of 1000deg^2^, with an average target density of 350deg^-2^.

- Description:
- The WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey measured the redshifts of over 200000 ultraviolet (UV)-selected (N_UV_<22.8mag) galaxies on the Anglo-Australian Telescope. The survey detected the baryon acoustic oscillation signal in the large-scale distribution of galaxies over the redshift range 0.2<z<1.0, confirming the acceleration of the expansion of the Universe and measuring the rate of structure growth within it. Here, we present the final data release of the survey: a catalogue of 225415 galaxies and individual files of the galaxy spectra. We analyse the emission-line properties of these UV-luminous Lyman-break galaxies by stacking the spectra in bins of luminosity, redshift, and stellar mass. The most luminous (-25mag<M_FUV_< -22mag) galaxies have very broad H{beta} emission from active nuclei, as well as a broad second component to the [OIII] (495.9nm, 500.7nm) doublet lines that is blueshifted by 100km/s, indicating the presence of gas outflows in these galaxies. The composite spectra allow us to detect and measure the temperature-sensitive [OIII] (436.3nm) line and obtain metallicities using the direct method. The metallicities of intermediate stellar mass (8.8<log(M*/M_{sun}_)<10) WiggleZ galaxies are consistent with normal emission-line galaxies at the same masses. In contrast, the metallicities of high stellar mass (10<log(M*/M_{sun}_)<12) WiggleZ galaxies are significantly lower than for normal emission-line galaxies at the same masses. This is not an effect of evolution as the metallicities do not vary with redshift; it is most likely a property specific to the extremely UV-luminous WiggleZ galaxies.

- Description:
- Wilson & Bappu (1957ApJ...125..661W) have shown the existence of a remarkable correlation between the width of the emission in the core of the K line of CaII and the absolute visual magnitude of late-type stars. Here we present a new calibration of the Wilson-Bappu effect based on a sample of 119 nearby stars. We use, for the first time, width measurements based on high resolution and high signal to noise ratio CCD spectra and absolute visual magnitudes from the Hipparcos database.

- Wind-driving protostellar accretion discs
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/412/1162
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We continue our study of weakly ionized protostellar accretion discs that are threaded by a large-scale magnetic field and power a centrifugally driven wind. It has been argued that there is already evidence in several protostellar systems that such a wind transports a significant fraction of the angular momentum from at least some part of the disc. We model this situation by considering a radially localized disc model in which the matter is everywhere well coupled to the field and the wind is the main repository of excess angular momentum. We consider stationary configurations in which magnetic diffusivity counters the shearing and advection of the magnetic field lines. In Wardle & Koenigl (1997, ASP Conf. Ser., 121, 561) we analysed the disc structure in the hydrostatic approximation (vertical motions neglected inside the disc) and presented exact disc/wind solutions for the ambipolar diffusivity regime. In Koenigl, Salmeron & Wardle (Paper I, 2010MNRAS.401..479K) we generalized the hydrostatic analysis to the Hall and Ohm diffusivity domains and used it to identify the disc parameter sub-regimes in which viable solutions with distinct physical properties can be expected to occur. In this paper we test the results of Paper I by deriving full numerical solutions (integrated through the sonic critical surface) of the disc equations in the Hall domain.

- WINERED CN-red band emission in comet C/2013 R1
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/154/45
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Although high-resolution spectra of the CN red-system band are considered useful in cometary sciences, e.g., in the study of isotopic ratios of carbon and nitrogen in cometary volatiles, there have been few reports to date due to the lack of high-resolution (R={lambda}/{Delta}{lambda}>20000) spectrographs in the near-infrared region around ~1 {mu}m. Here, we present the high-resolution emission spectrum of the CN red-system band in comet C/2013 R1 (Lovejoy), acquired by the near-infrared high-resolution spectrograph WINERED mounted on the 1.3 m Araki telescope at the Koyama Astronomical Observatory, Kyoto, Japan. We applied our fluorescence excitation models for CN, based on modern spectroscopic studies, to the observed spectrum of comet C/2013 R1 (Lovejoy) to search for CN isotopologues (^13^C^14^N and ^12^C^15^N). We used a CN fluorescence excitation model involving both a "pure" fluorescence excitation model for the outer coma and a "fully collisional" fluorescence excitation model for the inner coma region. Our emission model could reproduce the observed ^12^C^14^N red-system band of comet C/2013 R1 (Lovejoy). The derived mixing ratio between the two excitation models was 0.94(+0.02/-0.03):0.06(+0.03/-0.02), corresponding to the radius of the collision-dominant region of ~800-1600 km from the nucleus. No isotopologues were detected. The observed spectrum is consistent, within error, with previous estimates in comets of ^12^C/^13^C (~90) and ^14^N/^15^N (~150).

- WINGS cluster galaxies structural parameters
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/633/A104
- Date:

- Description:
- We present a multi-wavelength analysis of the galaxies in nine clusters selected from the WINGS dataset, examining how galaxy structure varies as a function of wavelength and environment using the state of the art software galapagos-2. We simultaneously fit single-Sersic functions on three optical (u, B and V) and two near-infrared (J and K) bands thus creating a wavelength-dependent model of each galaxy. We measure the magnitudes, effective radius (Re), the Sersic index (n), axis ratio, and position angle in each band. The sample contains 790 cluster members (located close to the cluster centre <0.64xR200) and 254 non-member galaxies that we further separate based on their morphology into ellipticals, lenticulars, and spirals. We find that the Sersic index of all galaxies inside clusters remains nearly constant with wavelength while Re decreases as wavelength increases for all morphological types. We do not observe a significant variation on n and Re as a function of projected local density and distance from the clusters centre. Comparing the n and Re of bright cluster galaxies with a subsample of non-member galaxies we find that bright cluster galaxies are more concentrated (display high n values) and are more compact (low Re). Moreover, the light profile (N) and size (R) of bright cluster galaxies does not change as a function of wavelength in the same manner as non-member galaxies.

- WINGS cluster survey second u-band extension
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- This is the second u-band extension of the WIde-field Nearby Galaxy-cluster Survey (WINGS), obtained by imaging 39 clusters with the ESO-VLT survey telescope. It follows the first one, realized with several telescopes of the northern hemisphere in the U Cousin-Bessel filter band (Omizzolo et al., 2014A&A...561A.111O, Cat. J/A+A/561/A111), that covered 17 clusters. The u-band data, in combination with those already achieved by the WINGS survey, will permit a detailed multi-wavelength investigation of the properties of the member galaxies from the cluster center out to the periphery. We have derived with SEXT the main properties of the galaxies in the observed fields and measured the u-V colors on circular apertures of increasing radius. The photometric accuracy of the magnitudes has been calibrated with the standard stars and tested by means of comparisons with the u-band data of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We present the catalogs of the photometric analysis performed by SEXT. Then we provide a brief analysis of the u-V vs V color-magnitude diagram of our clusters, the plots of the color as a function of the cluster-centric distance (for cluster members only) and the correlation of the current star formation rate (SFR) vs the absolute V and u magnitudes for the galaxies in the observed fields.
