Title:
MASSIV I. Sample properties
Short Name:
J/A+A/539/A91
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the global properties (redshift, SED-based stellar mass and star formation rate, [OII]3727 flux and equivalent width) of the MASSIV sample. It contains 84 star-forming galaxies in the redshift range 0.9<z<1.8 selected from the VVDS and observed with the SINFONI/VLT integral-field spectrograph. The main aims of the MASSIV survey is to probe the kinematics and chemical properties of a significant and representative sample of high-redshift galaxies with star formation rate >5M_{sun}_/yr.
482. 2MASS-selected Flat Galaxy Catalog (2MFGC)

Title:
2MASS-selected Flat Galaxy Catalog (2MFGC)
Short Name:
J/other/BSAO/57.
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
An all-sky catalog of 18020 disc-like galaxies is presented. The galaxies are selected from the Extended Source Catalog of the Two Micron All-Sky Survey (XSC 2MASS) basing on their 2MASS axial ratio a/b>=3. The Catalog contains data on magnitudes of a galaxy in the J, H, Ks bands, its axial ratio, positional angle, index of luminosity concentration, as well as identification of the galaxy with the LEDA and the NED databases. Unlike the available optical catalogs, the new 2MFGC catalog seems to be more suitable to study cosmic streaming on a scale of z~0.1. The dipole moment of distribution of the bright (K<11mag) 2MFGC objects (l=227{deg}, b=41{deg} or SGL=90{deg}, SGB=-43{deg}) lies within statistical errors (+/-15{deg}) in the direction of the IRAS dipole and the optical RFGC dipole.

Title:
2MASS-selected Isolated Galaxies (2MIG)
Short Name:
VII/257
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We undertook searches for isolated galaxies based on automatic selection of infrared sources from the Two Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS, Cat. II/246) followed by a visual inspection of their surrounding. Using a modified criterion by Karachentseva (1973SoSAO...8....3K), we compiled a catalog of 3227 isolated galaxies (2MIG) containing 6% of 2MASS Extended Sources (2MASX, Cat. VII/233) brighter than K_s_=12mag with angular diameters a_K_<=30". The most isolated 2493 galaxies among them enter in the 2MASS Very Isolated Galaxy Catalog, 2MVIG. Being situated in the regions of extremely low mass density, the 2MVIG galaxies can serve as a reference sample for investigation the influence of environment on structure and evolution of galaxies.

2MASX/NVSS galaxies brighter than K_20fe_=12.25
Short Name:

Description:
We identified 15658 NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) radio sources among the 55288 2 Micron All-Sky Survey eXtended (2MASX) galaxies brighter than k_20fe_=12.25 at {lambda}=2.16{mu}m and covering the {Omega}=7.016sr of sky defined by J2000 {delta}>-40{deg} and |b|>20{deg}. The complete sample of 15043 galaxies with 1.4GHz flux densities S>=2.45mJy contains a 99.9% spectroscopically complete subsample of 9517 galaxies with k_20fe_<=11.75. We used only radio and infrared data to quantitatively distinguish radio sources powered primarily by recent star formation from those powered by active galactic nuclei. The radio sources with log[L(W/Hz)]>19.3 that we used to derive the local spectral luminosity and power-density functions account for >99% of the total 1.4GHz spectral power densities U_SF_=(1.54+/-0.20)x10^19^W/Hz/Mpc^3^ and U_AGN_=(4.23+/-0.78)x10^19^W/Hz/Mpc^3^ in the universe today, and the spectroscopic subsample is large enough that the quoted errors are dominated by cosmic variance. The recent comoving star formation rate density indicated by USF is {psi}~0.015M_{sun}_/yr/Mpc^3^.
485. MATLAS dwarfs structure and morphology
ID:

Title:
MATLAS dwarfs structure and morphology
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/506/5494
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a photometric study of the dwarf galaxy population in the low to moderate density environments of the MATLAS (Mass Assembly of early-Type gaLAxies with their fine Structures) deep imaging survey. The sample consists of 2210 dwarfs, including 508 nucleated. We define a nucleus as a compact source that is close to the galaxy photocentre (within 0.5Re) which is also the brightest such source within the galaxy's effective radius. The morphological analysis is performed using a 2D surface brightness profile modelling on the g-band images of both the galaxies and nuclei. Our study reveals that, for similar luminosities, the MATLAS dwarfs show ranges in the distribution of structural properties comparable to cluster (Virgo and Fornax) dwarfs and a range of sizes comparable to the Local Group and Local Volume dwarfs. Colour measurements using the r- and i-band images indicate that the dwarfs in low and moderate density environments are as red as cluster dwarfs on average. The observed similarities between dwarf ellipticals in vastly different environments imply that dEs are not uniquely the product of morphological transformation due to ram-pressure stripping and galaxy harassment in high density environments. We measure that the dwarf nuclei are located predominantly in massive, bright and round dwarfs and observe fewer nuclei in dwarfs with a faint centre and a small size. The colour of the galaxy nucleus shows no clear relation to the colour of the dwarf, in agreement with the migration and wet migration nucleus formation scenarios. The catalogues of the MATLAS dwarfs photometric and structural properties are provided.
486. MATLAS ultra diffuse galaxies
ID:

Title:
MATLAS ultra diffuse galaxies
Short Name:
J/A+A/654/A105
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Recent advances in deep dedicated imaging surveys over the past decade have uncovered a surprisingly large number of extremely faint low surface brightness galaxies with large physical sizes called ultra diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in clusters and, more recently, in lower density environments. As part of the Mass Assembly of early-Type GaLAxies with their fine Structures (MATLAS) survey, a deep imaging large program at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT), our team has identified 2210 dwarf galaxies, 59 (~3%) of which qualify as UDGs. Averaging over the survey area, we find ~0.4 UDG per square degree. They are found in a range of low to moderate density environments, although 61% of the sample fall within the virial radii of groups. Based on a detailed analysis of their photometric and structural properties, we find that the MATLAS UDGs do not show significant differences from the traditional dwarfs, except from the predefined size and surface brightness cut. Their median color is as red as the one measured in galaxy clusters, albeit with a narrower color range. The majority of the UDGs are visually classified as dwarf ellipticals with log stellar masses of 6.5-8.7. The fraction of nucleated UDGs (~34%) is roughly the same as the nucleated fraction of the traditional dwarfs. Only five (~8%) UDGs show signs of tidal disruption and only two are tidal dwarf galaxy candidates. A study of globular cluster (GC) candidates selected in the CFHT images finds no evidence of a higher GC specific frequency S_N for UDGs than for classical dwarfs, contrary to what is found in most clusters. The UDG halo-to-stellar mass ratio distribution, as estimated from the GC counts, peaks at roughly the same value as for the traditional dwarfs, but spans the smaller range of ~10-2000. We interpret these results to mean that the large majority of the field-to-group UDGs do not have a different formation scenario than traditional dwarfs.

Description:
We derive the number of dynamically close companions per galaxy (N_c_) and their total luminosity (L_c_) for galaxies in the Millennium Galaxy Catalogue (MGC, 2003, Cat. <VII/240>). N_c_ is similar to the fraction of galaxies in close pairs and is directly related to the galaxy merger rate.

Description:
The Morphological Catalogue of Galaxies, Volume 5 (Vorontsov-Velyaminov et al. 1974) includes 1637 galaxies, probably no fainter than the fourteenth magnitude. The catalog was based on Palomar Sky Atlas prints and comprises areas from -30 to -45 degrees in declination. In contrast to the earlier four volumes of the catalog, the fifth was based on the red prints of the Sky Survey only. Visual magnitude estimates are thus in the red. Note that in all cases when in other sources the photoelectric B or photographic magnitude of galaxies are encountered, preference to those values has been given over those of Vorontsov-Velyaminov's estimates. All notes to galaxies published in the earlier volume are included here as well (Kogoshvili 1983). In addition, the following data were used from the ESO/Uppsala survey (Lauberts 1982): magnitudes, colors, radial velocities, Hubble types, and galaxy diameters as measured on the ESO(B) atlas plates up to the surface brightness slightly fainter than 25 magnitudes per square arcsec. These maximum major and minor galaxy diameters are provided in the fifth volume in place of the values taken from the UGC catalog in the earlier four volumes. Various data from both the reference Catalog of Bright Galaxies (de Vaucouleurs et al. 1964) and B-V and U-B colors from the General Catalogue of Photoelectric Magnitudes and Colours (Longo et al. 1983) were included. Fields included in the catalog are identification number; zone sign, number, and field number; galaxy number in the field; component or symbolic designation; NGC or IC identification; B1950.0 position, magnitude, magnitude accuracy, and magnitude reference; angular diameters, surface brightness, symbolic description galaxy, morphological type, galaxy type, heliocentric radial velocity; radial velocity corrected for solar motion; rotational velocity, dates of first two supernovae, number of supernovae, number of H II regions, U-B and B-V colors and references, radio flux densities at 178, 780, 1400, 2700, and 5000 MHz; number of nearby cluster; and coded information on membership of the galaxy to double or multiple systems, interaction features, and faint components.
489. M31 deepest Chandra catalogue of point sources
ID:

Title:
M31 deepest Chandra catalogue of point sources
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/461/3443
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This study represents the most sensitive Chandra X-ray point source catalogue of M31. Using 133 publicly available Chandra ACIS-I/S observations totalling ~1Ms, we detected 795 X-ray sources in the bulge, north-east, and south-west fields of M31, covering an area of ~=0.6deg^2^, to a limiting unabsorbed 0.5-8.0keV luminosity of ~10^34^erg/s. In the inner bulge, where exposure is approximately constant, X-ray fluxes represent average values because they were determined from many observations over a long period of time. Similarly, our catalogue is more complete in the bulge fields since monitoring allowed more transient sources to be detected. The catalogue was cross-correlated with a previous XMM-Newton catalogue of M31's D_25_ isophote consisting of 1948 X-ray sources, with only 979 within the field of view of our survey. We found 387 (49 per cent) of our Chandra sources (352 or 44 per cent unique sources) matched to within 5 arcsec of 352 XMM-Newton sources. Combining this result with matching done to previous Chandra X-ray sources we detected 259. new sources in our catalogue. We created X-ray luminosity functions (XLFs) in the soft (0.5-2.0keV) and hard (2.0-8.0keV) bands that are the most sensitive for any large galaxy based on our detection limits. Completeness-corrected XLFs show a break around ~=1.3x10^37^erg/s, consistent with previous work. As in past surveys, we find that the bulge XLFs are flatter than the disc, indicating a lack of bright high-mass X-ray binaries in the disc and an aging population of low-mass X-ray binaries in the bulge.

Title:
MDFC Version 10
Short Name:
II/361
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the Mid-infrared stellar Diameters and Fluxes compilation Catalogue (MDFC) dedicated to long-baseline interferometry at mid-infrared wavelengths (3-13um). It gathers data for half a million stars, i.e. nearly all the stars of the Hipparcos-Tycho catalogue whose spectral type is reported in the SIMBAD data base. We cross-match 26 data bases to provide basic information, binarity elements, angular diameter, magnitude and flux in the near and mid-infrared, as well as flags that allow us to identify the potential calibrators. The catalogue covers the entire sky with 465857 stars, mainly dwarfs and giants from B to M spectral types closer than 18kpc. The smallest reported values reach 0.16uJy in L and 0.1uJy in N for the flux, and 2-microarcsec for the angular diameter. We build four lists of calibrator candidates for the L and Nbands suitable with the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI) sub- and main arrays using the MATISSE instrument. We identify 1621 candidates for L and 44 candidates for N with the Auxiliary Telescopes (ATs), 375 candidates for both bands with the ATs, and 259 candidates for both bands with the Unit Telescopes (UTs). Predominantly cool giants, these sources are small and bright enough to belong to the primary lists of calibrator candidates. In the near future, we plan to measure their angular diameter with 1 per cent accuracy.
