- Description:
- The high-fidelity solar spectral atlas prepared by Delbouille et. al (1973, Liege atlas, Atlas photometrique du spectre solaire de {lambda} 3000 a {lambda} 10000, 1973apds.book.....D) and the atlas by Neckel (1999, Hamburg atlas, 1999SoPh..184..421N) are widely recognised as the most important collection of reference spectra of the Sun at disc centre in the visible wavelength range. The two datasets serve as fundamental resources for many researchers, in particular for chemical abundance analyses. But despite their similar published specifications (spectral resolution and noise level), the shapes of the spectral lines in the two atlases differ significantly and systematically. Knowledge of any instrumental degradations is imperative to fully exploit the information content of spectroscopic data. We seek to investigate the magnitude of these differences and explain the possible sources. We provide the wavelength-dependent correction parameters that need to be taken into account when the spectra are to be compared with synthetic data, for instance.

- Description:
- We report the first discovery of a multi-planetary system by the HATSouth network, HATS-59b,c, a planetary system with an inner transiting hot Jupiter and an outer cold massive giant planet, which was detected via radial velocity. The inner transiting planet, HATS-59b, is on an eccentric orbit with e=0.129+/-0.049, orbiting a V=13.951+/-0.030 mag solar-like star (M_*_=1.038+/-0.039 M_{sun}_ and R_*_=1.036+/-0.067 R_{sun}_) with a period of 5.416081+/-0.000016 days. The outer companion, HATS-59c is on a circular orbit with msini=12.70+/-0.87 M_J_ and a period of 1422+/-14 days. The inner planet has a mass of 0.806+/-0.069 M_J_ and a radius of 1.126+/-0.077 R_J_, yielding a density of 0.70+/-0.16 g/cm^3^. Unlike most planetary systems that include only a single hot Jupiter, HATS-59b,c includes, in addition to the transiting hot Jupiter, a massive outer companion. The architecture of this system is valuable for understanding planet migration.

- Differential V-band phot. & RVs of V506 Oph
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We report extensive differential V-band photometry and high-resolution spectroscopic observations of the early F-type, 1.06-day detached eclipsing binary V506 Oph. The observations, along with times of minimum light from the literature, are used to derive a very precise ephemeris and the physical properties for the components, with the absolute masses and radii being determined to 0.7% or better. The masses are 1.4153+/-0.0100M_{sun}_ and 1.4023+/-0.0094M_{sun}_ for the primary and secondary, the radii are 1.725+/-0.010R_{sun}_ and 1.692+/-0.012R_{sun}_, and the effective temperatures are 6840+/-150K and 6780+/-110K, respectively. The orbit is circular and the stars are rotating synchronously. The accuracy of the radii and temperatures is supported by the resulting distance estimate of 564+/-30pc, which is in excellent agreement with the value implied by the trigonometric parallax listed in the Gaia/Data Release 2 catalog. Current stellar evolution models from the Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA) Isochrones and Stellar Tracks series for a composition of [Fe/H]=-0.04 match the properties of both stars in V506 Oph very well at an age of 1.83Gyr and indicate they are halfway through their core hydrogen-burning phase.

- Diffuse interstellar bands from HD 183143
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- Echelle spectra of HD 183143 [B7Iae, E(B-V)=1.27] were obtained on three nights, at a resolving power R=38000 and with a signal-to-noise ratio ~1000 at 6400{AA} in the final, combined spectrum. A catalog is presented of 414 diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) measured between 3900 and 8100{AA} in this spectrum. The central wavelengths, the widths (FWHM), and the equivalent widths of nearly all of the bands are tabulated, along with the minimum uncertainties in the latter. Among the 414 bands, 135 (or 33%) were not reported in four previous, modern surveys of the DIBs in the spectra of various stars, including HD 183143. The principal result of this study is that the great majority of the bands in the catalog are very weak and fairly narrow. Typical equivalent widths amount to a few m{AA}, and the bandwidths (FWHM) are most often near 0.7{AA}.

- Description:
- We present spectroscopic VLT/UVES observations of two emerging supernovae, the Type Ia SM 2001el and the Type II SN 2003hn, in the spiral galaxy NGC 1448. Our high resolution and high signal-to-noise spectra display atomic lines of Ca II, Na I, Ti II and K I in the host galaxy. In the line of sight towards SN 2001el, we also detect over a dozen diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) within NGC 1448.

- Description:
- We relate the equivalent widths of 11 diffuse interstellar bands, measured in the spectra of 49 stars, to different colour excesses in the ultraviolet. We find that most of the observed bands correlate positively with the extinction in the neighbourhood of the 2175{AA} bump. Correlation with colour excesses in other parts of the extinction curve is more variable from one diffuse interstellar band to another; we find that some diffuse bands (5797, 5850 and 6376{AA}) correlate positively with the overall slope of the extinction curve, while others (5780 and 6284{AA}) exhibit negative correlation. We discuss the implications of these results on the links between the diffuse interstellar band carriers and the properties of the interstellar grains.

- Description:
- Diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) measured in stellar spectra contain information on the amount of interstellar (IS) matter that is distributed along the line-of-sight, and similarly to other absorbing species may be used to locate IS clouds. Here we present a new database of 5780.5 and 6283.8{AA} DIB measurements. Those two DIBs have the advantage that they are strong and also broad enough to be detectable in cool-star spectra. We also study their correlation with the reddening.

- Description:
- In a sample of 114 diffuse cloud sightlines spanning a wide range of interstellar environments, we find the equivalent widths of the diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) {lambda}6196.0 and {lambda}6613.6 to be extremely well correlated, with a correlation coefficient of 0.986. A maximum likelihood functional relationship analysis shows that the observations are consistent with a perfect correlation if the observational errors, which are dominated by continuum placement and other systematics such as interfering lines, have been underestimated by a factor of 2. The quality of this correlation far exceeds other previously studied correlations, such as that between the {lambda}5780.5 DIB and either the color excess or the atomic hydrogen column density. The unusually tight correlation between these two DIBs would seem to suggest that they might represent the first pair of DIBs known to be due to the same molecular carrier. However, further theoretical work will be required to determine whether the different linewidths and band shapes of these two DIBs can be consistent with a common carrier. If the two DIBs do not in fact share the same molecular carrier, their two carriers must be chemically very closely related.

- Description:
- Studies of the Diffuse Ionized Gas (DIG) have progressed without providing so far any strict criterion to distinguish DIGs from HII regions. In this work, we compile the emission line measurements of 29 galaxies that are available in the scientific literature, thereby setting up the first DIG database DIGEDA. Making use of this database, we proceeded to analyze global properties of the DIG using the [NII]6583/Halpha, [OI]6300/Halpha, [OIII]5007/Hbeta and [SII]6716/Halpha lines ratios, including the Halpha emission measure. This analysis leads us to conclude that the [NII]/Halpha ratio provides an objective criterion for distinguishing whether an emission region is DIG or an HII region, while the EM(Halpha) is a useful quantity only when the galaxies are considered individually. Finally, we find that the emission regions of Irr galaxies classified as DIG in the literature appear in fact to be much more similar to HII regions than to the DIGs of spiral galaxies.
