Description:
From the Gaia DR2 catalogue we predict astrometric microlensing
events by foreground stars with high proper motion (µ_tot >150mas/yr)
passing a background source in the next decades. Using Gaia DR2
photometry we determine an approximate mass of the lens, which we use
to calculate the expected microlensing effects. This yields 3914
microlensing events by 2875 different lenses between 2010 and 2065
with expected shifts larger than 0.1 mas between the lensed and
unlensed positions of the source. 513 of those are expected to happen
between 2014.5 - 2026.5 and might be measured by Gaia. For 127 events
we also expect a magnification between 1 mmag and 3 mag.

Description:
From the Gaia eDR3 catalogue we predict astrometric microlensing
events by foreground stars with high proper motion (μ > 100 mas/yr)
passing a background source in the next decades. Using Gaia DR3
photometry we determine an approximate mass of the lens, which we use
to calculate the expected microlensing effects. This yields 4842
microlensing events by 3791 different lenses between 2010 and 2066
with expected shifts larger than 0.1 mas between the lensed and
unlensed positions of the source. The past events might be interested
when analyzing the individual Gaia measurements). 685 of those are
expected to happen within the next decade (2021-2031). For 140 events
we also expect a magnification between 1 mmag and 0.6 mag.

Description:
This DSA hosts data release 1 of the ATLAS Survey housed at the Wide Field Astronomy Unit at the Univeristy of Edinburgh. The initial aim of ATLAS is to survey 4500 deg2 of the Southern Sky at high galactic latitudes to comparable depths to the SDSS in the North. The VST ATLAS will be the first step towards a panoramic digital survey of the Southern Sky in the optical bands. The ATLAS will complement the proposed VISTA Hemisphere Survey in the South.
A form to search the VAMDC species list published on the TAP service
at http://dc.g-vo.org/tap. Enter parts of species names or chemical
formulae here and get back matching names, inchis and inchikeys.
Extracted sources from the Bochum Galactic Disk Survey. We provide
mean photometry in U, B, V, z, r, and i bands. Note that sources in
different bands are not matched. Also, sources sitting in the regions
imaged in multiple fields have not been matched even within one band.
In i and r, BGDS light curves are available. See related services for
details.
This catalog presents the 1-100 GeV spectral energy distribution
(SED) for a population of 148 high-synchrotron-peaked blazars (HSPs)
recently detected with Fermi-LAT as part of the First Brazil-ICRANet
Gamma-ray Blazar catalogue (1BIGB). A series of two works describe
details on the broadband analysis https://arxiv.org/abs/1609.08501
(paper 1), and the calculation of the gamma-ray SEDs
https://arxiv.org/abs/1804.08801 (paper 2). Most of the 1BIGB sources
do not appear in previous Fermi-LAT catalogues and their gamma-ray
spectral properties are presented here for the first time,
representing a significant new extension of the gamma-ray blazar
population. Since the 1BIGB sample was originally selected from an
excess signal in the 0.3-500 GeV band, the sources stand out as
promising TeV blazar candidates, potentially in reach of the
forthcoming very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray observatory, CTA. The
flux estimates presented here are derived considering PASS8 data,
integrating over more than 9 years of Fermi-LAT observations. The full
broadband fit between 0.3-500 GeV presented in paper 1 for all sources
was reevaluated in paper 2, updating the power-law parameters with
currently available Fermi-LAT dataset. The importance of these sources
in the context of VHE population studies with both current instruments
and the future CTA is evaluated in paper 2. To do so, a subsample of
1BIGB sources was selected and had their gamma-ray SEDs extrapolated
to the highest energies, properly accounting for absorption due to the
extragalactic background light. Those extrapolations were compared to
the published CTA sensitivity curves and their detectability by CTA
was estimated. Two notable sources from our sample, namely 1BIGB
J224910.6-130002 and 1BIGB J194356.2+211821, are discussed in greater
detail in paper 2. All gamma-ray SEDs, which are shown here for the
first time, are made publicly available via the Brazilian Science Data
Center (BSDC) service, maintained at CBPF, in Rio de Janeiro.
