- Description:
- The US (UV-excess Starlike) survey has cataloged 3987 objects in 7 high Galactic latitude fields according to their optical colors, magnitudes, and morphologies using photographic techniques. This paper analyzes the effectiveness of the survey at producing finding lists for complete samples of hot stars and quasars that exhibit blue and/or ultraviolet excess (B-UVX) relative to the colors of halo F and G subdwarf stars. A table of 599 spectroscopic identifications summarizes the spectroscopic coverage of the US objects that has been accomplished to date.

- Description:
- We exploit deep combined observations with Spitzer and Chandra of the Spitzer Wide-Area Infrared Extragalactic Survey (SWIRE) in the ELAIS N1 region to investigate the nature of the faint X-ray and IR sources in common, to identify active galactic nucleus (AGN)/starburst diagnostics, and to study the sources of the X-ray and IR cosmic backgrounds (XRB and CIRB).

- CDS
- Description:
- We present the first results from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) Grism Parallel Survey, a large program obtaining deep, slitless ACS grism (R~100) spectroscopy of high-latitude HST parallel fields. We identify 601 compact emission-line galaxies at z<=1.6, reaching emission lines to a flux limit of >~5x10^-18^ergs/cm^2^/s (3{sigma}). We determine redshifts by cross-correlation of the target spectra with template spectra, followed by visual inspection. We measure star formation rates from the observed [OII]{lambda}3727, [OIII]{lambda}5007, and H{alpha} line fluxes.

- Description:
- We present deep echelle spectrophotometry of the Galactic HII regions M16, M20 and NGC 3603. The data have been taken with the Very Large Telescope Ultraviolet-Visual Echelle Spectrograph in the 3100-10400{AA} range. We have detected more than 200 emission lines in each region. Physical conditions have been derived using different continuum and line intensity ratios. We have derived He^+^, C^++^ and O^++^ abundances from pure recombination lines as well as collisionally excited lines (CELs) for a large number of ions of different elements.

- Faint FIRST variable radio sources

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- A sample of 123 radio sources that exhibit significant variations at 1.4GHz on a 7 year baseline has been created using FIRST VLA B-configuration data from 1995 and 2002 on a strip at {delta}=0 near the south Galactic cap. This sample spans the range of radio flux densities from ~2 to 1000mJy. It presents both in size and radio flux density range a unique starting point for variability studies of galaxies and quasars harboring lower luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGNs).

- Description:
- We present the results of a spectroscopic survey of the recently discovered faint Milky Way satellites Bootes, Ursa Major I, Ursa Major II and Willman 1 (Wil1). Using the DEep Imaging Multi-Object Spectrograph mounted on the Keck II telescope, we have obtained samples that contain from ~15 to ~85 probable members of these satellites for which we derive radial velocities precise to a few km/s down to i~21-22. About half of these stars are observed with a high enough signal-to-noise ratio to estimate their metallicity to within +/-0.2dex. The characteristics of all the observed stars are made available, along with those of the Canes Venatici I dwarf galaxy that have been analysed in a companion paper.

- Description:
- The North Galactic Pole Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Catalogue of faint galaxies is made available. We provide positions, photometric and structural parameters for more than 50000 galaxies. The J and F magnitudes were obtained from IIIaJ and IIIaF CFHT prime focus plates respectively. This catalogue have been used in many studies of faint galaxy properties. Galaxy counts, colour distributions and clustering properties of faint galaxies have been obtained with these data. Statistical properties of stars have been studied as well. For details refer to Infante and Pritchet (1992ApJS...83..237I), Pritchet and Infante (1992ApJ...399L..35P), Infante (1994A&A...282..353), Infante (1994A&AS..107..413I) and Infante and Pritchet (1995ApJ...439..565I). The magnitude errors range from: +/-0.3mag at J=24 to less than +/-0.1 at J=20 +/-0.3mag at F=23 to less than +/-0.1 at F=19 The rms uncertainty in the zero points is 0.022 (J) and 0.038 (F)

- Description:
- The excess number of blue galaxies at faint magnitudes is a subject of much controversy. Recent Hubble Space Telescope results have revealed a plethora of galaxies with peculiar morphologies tentatively identified as the evolving population. We report the results of optical spectroscopy and near-infrared photometry of a sample of faint HST galaxies from the Medium Deep Survey to ascertain the physical properties of the faint morphological populations. We find four principal results. First, the population of objects classified as 'peculiar' are intrinsically luminous in the optical (M_B_~-19). Secondly these systems tend to be strong sources of [OII] line luminosity. Thirdly the optical-infrared colours of the faint population (a) confirm the presence of a population of compact blue galaxies and (b) show the stellar populations of irregular/peculiar galaxies encompass a wide range in age. Finally a surface-brightness comparison with the local galaxy sample of Freiz et al. (1996AJ....111..174F) shows that these objects are not of anomalously low surface brightness, rather we find that all morphological classes have evolved to a higher surface brightness at higher redshifts (z>0.3).

- Description:
- Using the fibre optic coupler at the Anglo-Australian Observatory, we have completed a new faint galaxy redshift survey. Intermediate dispersion spectra with resolution ~4{AA} have been gathered for over 200 field galaxies selected in apparent magnitude slices between 20.0<b_J_<21.5mag in five high-latitude fields. Redshift completeness is 85% and the mean redshift agrees well from field to field.
