- Description:
- A new metallicity distribution and an age-metallicity relation are presented for 437 nearby F and G turn-off and sub-giant stars selected from radial velocity data of Nidever et al. (2002, Cat. J/ApJS/141/503). Photometric metallicities are derived from uvby-H{beta} photometry, and the stellar ages from the isochrones of Bergbusch & VandenBerg (2001ApJ...556..322B) as transformed to uvby photometry using the methods of Clem et al. (2004, Cat. J/AJ/127/1227).

- Description:
- We combine H{alpha} emission-line and infrared (IR) continuum measurements of two samples of nearby galaxies to derive dust attenuation-corrected star formation rates (SFRs). We use a simple energy balance based method that has been applied previously to HII regions in the Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey, and extend the methodology to integrated measurements of galaxies. We find that our composite H{alpha}+IR based SFRs are in excellent agreement with attenuation-corrected SFRs derived from integrated spectrophotometry, over the full range of SFRs (0.01-80M_{sun}_/yr) and attenuations (0-2.5mag) studied. The calibrations differ significantly from those obtained for HII regions, with the difference attributable to a more evolved population of stars heating the dust. Our results are consistent with a significant component of diffuse dust (the "IR cirrus" component) that is heated by a non-star-forming population.

- Description:
- The Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey (HeViCS) is the deepest, confusion-limited survey of the Virgo Cluster at far-infrared (FIR) wavelengths. The entire survey at full depth covers ~55deg^2^ in five bands (100-500um), encompassing the areas around the central dominant elliptical galaxies (M87, M86 and M49) and extends as far as the NW cloud, the W cloud and the Southern extension. The survey extends beyond this region with lower sensitivity so that the total area covered is 84 deg2. In this paper we describe the data, the data acquisition techniques and present the detection rates of the optically selected Virgo Cluster Catalogue (VCC). We detect 254 (34%) of 750 VCC galaxies found within the survey boundary in at least one band and 171 galaxies are detected in all five bands. For the remainder of the galaxies we have measured strict upper limits for their FIR emission.

- Description:
- G29.96-0.02 is a high-mass star-forming cloud observed at 70, 160, 250, 350, and 500{mu}m as part of the Herschel survey of the Galactic plane (Hi-GAL) during the science demonstration phase. We wish to conduct a far-infrared study of the sources associated with this star-forming region by estimating their physical properties and evolutionary stage, and investigating the clump mass function, the star formation efficiency and rate in the cloud. We have identified the Hi-GAL sources associated with the cloud, searched for possible counterparts at centimeter and infrared wavelengths, fitted their spectral energy distribution and estimated their physical parameters.

- Far-ultraviolet variable sources in M31

- Publisher:

- Description:
- The Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) on board the AstroSat observatory has imaged the Andromeda galaxy (M31) from 2017 to 2019 in the far- and near-UV (FUV and NUV) with the high spatial resolution of ~1". The survey covered the large sky area of M31 with a set of observations (Fields), each 28' in diameter. Field 1 was observed in two epochs with the F148W filter, separated by ~1133days (~3.10yr). The 6.4kpc diameter Field 1 (at the distance of M31) includes a substantial part of the inner spiral arms of the galaxy. We identify UVIT sources in both epochs of Field 1 and obtain catalogs of sources that are variable in FUV at >3{sigma} and >5{sigma} confidence level. The fraction of FUV-variable sources is higher for brighter sources, and the fraction is higher in the two main spiral arms compared to other areas. This is evidence that a significant fraction of the FUV variables are associated with hot young stars. Source counterparts are found for 42 of the 86 >5{sigma} FUV variables using existing catalogs. The counterparts include 10 star clusters, 6 HII regions, 5 regular or semiregular variables, 6 other variables, and 6 nova or nova candidates. The UVIT FUV-NUV and FUV-FUV color-magnitude diagrams confirm the association of most of the FUV variables with hot young stars. A catalog of UVIT photometry for the variable sources is presented.

- Description:
- Optical spectra have been obtained for a selection of objects included in a catalog of far ultraviolet bright, high galactic latitude objects detected with a balloon-borne survey telescope. The observed objects provide a sample of subdwarf O and B stars, white dwarfs, and binary systems including a hot sub-luminous member. Model atmospheres analysis of the sub-dwarf sample is used to determine the temperature, gravity, and helium to hydrogen ratio of the individual objects. A smooth distribution of objects is found on the gravity versus temperature diagram near the theoretical location of the extended horizontal branch. A break between the helium rich and helium poor objects occurs at 40000K. Suspected binary objects were found and analyzed to determine the temperature and gravity of the hot subluminous member in each system. The number of subdwarf stars contained in binaries is determined to be from 65% to 100%. The number versus ultraviolet magnitude distribution of the subdwarf B sample is modeled to obtain a midplane density of 3.3x10^-6^pc^-3^ and a population scale height of 240pc. The proportion of white dwarfs that experience the subdwarf phase of evolution is found to be 0.94%.

- Description:
- We list the photometric measurements of point sources made by the Far Ultraviolet Space Telescope (FAUST) when it flew on the ATLAS-1 space shuttle mission. The list contains 4698 Galactic and extragalactic objects detected in 22 wide-field images of the sky. At the locations surveyed, this catalog reaches a limiting magnitude approximately a factor of 10 fainter than the previous UV all-sky survey, TD1. The catalog limit is approximately 1x10^-14^ergs/s/cm^26/A, although it is not complete to this level. We list for each object the position, FUV flux, the error in flux, and where possible an identification from catalogs of nearby stars and galaxies. These catalogs include the Michigan HD (MHD) and HD, SAO, the HIPPARCOS Input Catalog, the Position and Proper Motion Catalog, the TD1 Catalog, the McCook and Sion Catalog of white dwarf stars, and the RC3 Catalog of Galaxies. We identify 2239 FAUST sources with objects in the stellar catalogs and 172 with galaxies in the RC3 catalog. We estimate the number of sources with incorrect identifications to be less than 2%. FAUST is a wide-field telescope (7.6{deg} diameter) designed to image diffuse and point sources in the wavelength range 140-180nm. The experiment, the mission and the data are described in a previous paper by Bowyer et al., 1993ApJ...415..875B .

- Description:
- Using the Advanced Camera for Surveys on Hubble Space Telescope, we have surveyed the far-ultraviolet (FUV) and near-ultraviolet (NUV) populations in the core region of M80. The color-magnitude diagram (CMD) reveals large numbers of blue and extreme horizontal branch stars and blue stragglers, as well as ~60 objects lying in the region of the CMD where accreting and detached white dwarf binaries are expected. Overall, the blue straggler stars are the most centrally concentrated population, with their radial distribution suggesting a typical blue straggler mass of about 1.2M_{sun}_. However, counterintuitively, the faint blue stragglers are significantly more centrally concentrated than the bright ones and a Kolmogorov-Smirnov test suggest only a 3.5% probability that both faint and bright blue stragglers are drawn from the same distribution. This may suggest that (some) blue stragglers get a kick during their formation. We have also been able to identify the majority of the known X-ray sources in the core with FUV bright stars. One of these FUV sources is a likely dwarf nova that was in eruption at the time of the FUV observations. This object is located at a position consistent with Nova 1860 AD, or T Scorpii. Based on its position, X-ray and UV characteristics, this system is almost certainly the source of the nova explosion. The radial distribution of the X-ray sources and of the cataclysmic variable candidates in our sample suggest masses >1M_{sun}_.
