Description:
We introduce the Survey for Ionization in Neutral Gas Galaxies (SINGG), a census of star formation in HI-selected galaxies. The survey consists of H{alpha} and R-band imaging of a sample of 468 galaxies selected from the HI Parkes All Sky Survey (HIPASS). The sample spans three decades in HI mass and is free of many of the biases that affect other star-forming galaxy samples. We present the criteria for sample selection, list the entire sample, discuss our observational techniques, and describe the data reduction and calibration methods. This paper focuses on 93 SINGG targets whose observations have been fully reduced and analyzed to date.

Description:
An accurate census of the active galactic nuclei (AGN) is a key step in investigating the nature of the correlation between the growth and evolution of super massive black holes and galaxy evolution. X-ray surveys provide one of the most efficient ways of selecting AGN.
734. Team Keck Redshift Survey 2 (TKRS2)
ID:

Title:
Team Keck Redshift Survey 2 (TKRS2)
Short Name:
J/AJ/150/153
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the Team Keck Redshift Survey 2 (TKRS2), a near-infrared spectral observing program targeting selected galaxies within the CANDELS subsection of the GOODS-North Field. The TKRS2 program exploits the unique capabilities of the Multi-Object Spectrometer For Infra-Red Exploration (MOSFIRE), which entered service on the Keck I telescope in 2012 and contributes substantially to the study of galaxy spectral features at redshifts inaccessible to optical spectrographs. The TKRS2 project targets 97 galaxies drawn from samples that include z~2 emission-line galaxies with features observable in the JHK bands as well as lower-redshift targets with features in the Y band. We present a detailed measurement of MOSFIRE's sensitivity as a function of wavelength, including the effects of telluric features across the YJHK filters. The largest utility of our survey is in providing rest-frame-optical emission lines for z>1 galaxies, and we demonstrate that the ratios of strong, optical emission lines of z~2 galaxies suggest the presence of either higher N/O abundances than are found in z~0 galaxies or low-metallicity gas ionized by an active galactic nucleus. We have released all TKRS2 data products into the public domain to allow researchers access to representative raw and reduced MOSFIRE spectra.
735. The ACS-GC catalog
ID:

Title:
The ACS-GC catalog
Short Name:
J/ApJS/200/9
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the Advanced Camera for Surveys General Catalog (ACS-GC), a photometric and morphological database using publicly available data obtained with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope. The goal of the ACS-GC database is to provide a large statistical sample of galaxies with reliable structural and distance measurements to probe the evolution of galaxies over a wide range of look-back times. The ACS-GC includes approximately 470000 astronomical sources (stars + galaxies) derived from the AEGIS, COSMOS, GEMS, and GOODS surveys. Galapagos code (Hausler et al. 2011ASPC..442..155H) was used to construct photometric (SExtractor) and morphological (Galfit) catalogs. The analysis assumes a single Sersic model for each object to derive quantitative structural parameters. We include publicly available redshifts from the DEEP2, COMBO-17, TKRS, PEARS, ACES, CFHTLS, and zCOSMOS surveys to supply redshifts (spectroscopic and photometric) for a considerable fraction (~74%) of the imaging sample. The ACS-GC includes color postage stamps, Galfit residual images, and photometry, structural parameters, and redshifts combined into a single catalog.
736. The ACT Reference Catalog
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/I/246
Title:
The ACT Reference Catalog
Short Name:
I/246
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The U.S. Naval Observatory has completed the compilation of the ACT Reference Catalog, containing 988,758 stars covering the entire sky. The motivation behind the ACT was to provide accurate proper motions for the majority of the stars in the Tycho Catalogue (ESA SP-1200). To do this, positions from new reductions of the Astrographic Catalogue (AC 2000) were combined with those of Tycho. The large epoch span between the two catalogs yields proper motions about an order of magnitude more accurate than those published in the Tycho Catalogue. The astrometric data contained in the ACT Reference Catalog include positions, proper motions and error estimates. These are on the Hipparcos System (J2000.0) for epoch J2000.0. Photometric data (B and V) from Tycho are included. Additionally, cross references to the Tycho, AC 2000, Bonner Durchmusterung (BD), Cordoba Durchmusterung (CD), Cape Durchmusterung (CPD), Henry Draper (HD) and Hipparcos Catalogues are given.
737. The ALMA Calibrator Catalogue

Title:
The ALMA Calibrator Catalogue
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/485/1188
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a new catalogue of ALMA observations, the ALMA Calibrator Catalogue (ACC), collecting 3361 bright, compact radio sources, mostly blazars, used as calibrators. These sources were observed between 2011 May and 2018 July, for a total of 47115 pointings in different bands and epochs. A search in the online data bases yielded redshift measurements for 2245 sources.
738. The AMIGA project. Revised positions for CIG galaxies
ID:

Title:
The AMIGA project. Revised positions for CIG galaxies
Short Name:
J/A+A/411/391
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present revised positions for the 1051 galaxies belonging to the Karachentseva Catalog of Isolated Galaxies (CIG, Cat. <VII/82>). New positions were calculated by applying SExtractor to the Digitized Sky Survey CIG fields with a spatial resolution of 1.2". We visually checked the results and for 118 galaxies had to recompute the assigned positions due to complex morphologies (e.g. distorted isophotes, undefined nuclei, knotty galaxies) or the presence of bright stars. We found differences between older and newer positions of up to 38" with a mean value of 2.96" relative to SIMBAD and up to 38" and 2.42" respectively relative to UZC (Cat. <J/PASP/111/438>). Based on star positions from the APM catalog (Cat. <I/267>) we determined that the DSS astrometry of five CIG fields has a mean offset in ({alpha},{delta}) of (-0.90", 0.93") with a dispersion of 0.4". These results have been confirmed using the 2MASS All-Sky Catalog of Point Sources (Cat. <II/246>). The intrinsic errors of our method combined with the astrometric ones are of the order of 0.5".
739. The APM Bright Galaxy Catalogue
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/MNRAS/278/1025
Title:
The APM Bright Galaxy Catalogue
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/278/1025
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The APM Bright Galaxy Catalogue lists positions, magnitudes, shapes and morphological types for 14,681 galaxies brighter than b(J) magnitude 16.44 over a 4,180 square degree area of the southern sky. Galaxy and stellar images have been located from glass copy plates of the United Kingdom Schmidt Telescope (UKST) IIIaJ sky survey using the Automated Photographic Measuring (APM) facility in Cambridge, England. The majority of stellar images are rejected by the regularity of their image surface brightness profiles. Remaining images are inspected by eye on film copies of the survey material and classed as stellar, multiple stellar, galaxy, merger or noise. Galaxies are further classified as elliptical, lenticular, spiral, irregular or uncertain. The 180 survey fields are put onto a uniform photometric system by comparing the magnitudes of galaxies in the overlap regions between neighbouring plates. The magnitude zero-point, photometric uniformity and photographic saturation are checked with CCD photometry. Finally, the completeness and reliability of the catalogue is assessed using various internal tests and by comparing with several independently constructed galaxy catalogues.

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
****************************************************************** This version is a preliminary adaptation of the APM, covering the Northern sky at high galactic latitudes only. ****************************************************************** The catalogue APMCAT-POSS1-1.0 is derived from the first epoch (1949-1958) Palomar Observatory-National Geographic Sky Survey (POSS). The catalog is based on digitised scans with the laser based Cambridge Automated Plate Measurement(APM) machine of both the blue O plates and red E plates. The plates are scanned with a pixel sampling 8microns which corresponds 0.49 arcsecs at the nominal plate scale of 61arcsec/mm (16.4 micron/arcsec). Further details about the survey material can be found in Minkowski and Abell 1963 and Lund and Dixon 1973.
