- Description:
- Absolute parameters of 509 main-sequence stars selected from the components of detached eclipsing spectroscopic binaries in the solar neighbourhood are used to study mass-luminosity, mass-radius, and mass-effective temperature relations (MLR, MRR, and MTR). The MLR function is found better if expressed by a six-piece classical MLR (L{prop.to}M^{alpha}^) rather than a fifth or a sixth degree polynomial within the mass range of 0.179<=M/M_{sun}_<=31. The break points separating the mass ranges with classical MLR do not appear to us to be arbitrary. Instead, the data indicate abrupt changes along the mass axis in the mean energy generation per unit of stellar mass. Unlike the MLR function, the MRR and MTR functions cannot be determined over the full range of masses. A single-piece MRR function is calibrated from the radii of stars with M<=1.5M_{sun}_, while a second single-piece MTR function is found for stars with M>1.5M_{sun}_. The missing part of the MRR is computed from the MLR and MTR, while the missing part of the MTR is computed from the MLR and MRR. As a result, we have interrelated the MLR, MRR, and MTR, which are useful in determining the typical absolute physical parameters of main-sequence stars of given masses. These functions are also useful to estimate typical absolute physical parameters from typical T_eff_ values. Thus, we were able to estimate the typical absolute physical parameters of main-sequence stars observed in the Sejong Open cluster Survey, based on that survey's published values for Teff. Since typical absolute physical parameters of main-sequence stars cannot normally be determined in such photometric surveys, the interrelated functions are shown to be useful to compute such missing parameters from similar surveys.

- Description:
- Absolute photoionization cross sections for the ions N2+, N3+, O3+, O4+, F3+ , F4+ and Ne4+ are measured using the merged-beam technique, combining the synchrotron radiation from an undulator at the storage ring ASTRID with ions produced by an ECR ion source. The files contain the experimental absolute cross-section data reported in the paper. Each ascii file has 3 columns: Photon energy (eV), Cross section (Mb) and Statistical uncertainty (Mb). In addition to the latter there is a systematic uncertainty on the cross sections of about 15%. (1Mb=10^-18^cm^2^).

- Description:
- Absolute polarimetry observations of 33 pulsars were carried out with the Green Bank Telescope in the 1100-1900 MHz band using the Green Bank Ultimate Pulsar Processing Instrument. This group was selected to help complete a larger sample for which accurate proper-motion measurements were available. A combination of profile analysis using the core/double cone model and polarization-angle fitting methods were applied to estimate the "fiducial" longitude of the magnetic axis for each star and refer the linear polarization angle at that point to infinite frequency. As had been found previously, a number of the pulsars are found to have fiducial polarization directions that fall either along or at right angles to their proper-motion directions, whereas upwards of a third of the stars studied show alignments that are neither parallel nor orthogonal.

- Description:
- The field of direct imaging is experiencing a considerable growth in the number of available CCD mosaic imagers, especially on large telescopes. To fully exploit the astrometric potential of these imaging devices, we develop a technique, utilizing an astrometric standard, for precision transformation of pixel coordinates into a global coordinate system. We have constructed a new astrometric standard set of 1863 stars in the field of NGC 188 to derive the CCD chip constants for the NOAO CCD Mosaic Imager. The multiple-epoch data on the Mosaic's metrics indicate that this CCD mosaic device may have experienced a one-time nonelastic expansion. We also present a new determination of the pixel scale and the optical field angle distortion constants for the KPNO Mayall 4 m telescope prime focus field corrector. To establish a reliable history of the CCD mosaic imager metrics for current and potential future astrometric applications, we recommend obtaining astrometric calibrations for CCD mosaic imagers on a regular basis. Apart from mechanical positioning of the CCD mosaic camera on the telescope, noticeable changes in the thermal environment of CCD mosaic chips should also prompt new astrometric calibrations. It is shown that, following all precautions, the NOAO CCD Mosaic Imager can produce excellent astrometric results on the Mayall 4 m telescope.

- Absolute proper motions of globular clusters

- Description:
- The absolute proper motions for a total of 92 globular clusters of the Milky Way (60% of all clusters included in the catalogue published by Harris, 1996, Cat. VII/195) are inferred from the UCAC2 proper motions of their likely member stars. The median formal error of the cluster proper motions is equal to 0.8marcsec/yr in both right ascension and declination, whereas the proper-motion errors of individual clusters range from 0.2 to 3marcsec/yr. Tests performed demonstrate the overall validity of the cluster motions; the resulting transverse velocities remain, on the average, virtually constant out to a heliocentric distance of 15kpc and the full space velocity of most of the clusters relative to the Galactic centre remains, on the average, unchanged near 190km/s out to a Galactocentric distance of about 20kpc, in agreement with the overall isothermal structure of the Galactic halo.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We determined the mean absolute proper motion of 93 open clusters situated farther than 1 kpc from the Sun. The results are derived from the stellar proper motion data given in the Tycho2 Catalogue (<I/259>). The mean proper motion of the clusters and membership probability of individual stars were obtained from the proper motion data by applying the statistical method proposed by Sanders (1971A&A....14..226S). The measurements made use of a large number of stars, usually several tens, for each cluster. The total number of stars investigated in the fields of the clusters is 4864 of which 2021 were considered members. For 55 clusters, this is the first determination of the proper motion. The distances, ages and kinematics parameters of the clusters can be accessed at http://www.iagusp.usp.br/~wilton

- Description:
- The catalog PUL2 was made by photographic method in Pulkovo in accordance with Deutsch plan (KSZ, Deutch A.N., 1952IAUT....8..789D). Observations were made using Pulkovo Normal astrograph. The first epochs of photographic plates were fulfilled since 1937 till 1965, and the second ones - since 1969 till 1986. PUL2 includes 149 areas uniformly covering the North sky. The mean epoch difference is 24 years. For each area there are three pairs of plates. All plates are taken with one hour and 5 min exposure. On the plates with diffraction grating only bright reference stars were measured. For obtaining relative star proper motions the faint (15.2) reference stars we used. Relative proper motions were obtained using a six constant plate model. For obtaining fictitious proper motions of extragalactic objects (absolutization) about 700 galaxies was used. Random errors of relative star proper motions are of 5.5mas/yr in right ascension and 5.9mas/yr in declination. Errors of fictitious proper motions of galaxies are of 7.9mas/yr (mean absolutization error) for both coordinates by a representation of the Oort-Lindblad model. On the base of comparison of the common stars of PUL2 and Hipparcos catalogues the components of the residual rotation vector of the Hipparcos referently to extragalactic reference frame have been derived as follows: w(x,y,z)=(-0.98,-0.03,-1.66)+/-(0.47,0.38,0.42)mas/yr. Mean random errors of absolute bright star proper motions from comparison of PUL2 and Hipparcos catalogues were estimated as 9mas/yr in both coordinates.

- Absolute Proper motions Outside the Plane (APOP)

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present a new catalog of absolute proper motions and updated positions derived from the same Space Telescope Science Institute digitized Schmidt survey plates utilized for the construction of the Guide Star Catalog II. As special attention was devoted to the absolutization process and removal of position, magnitude and color dependent systematic errors through the use of both stars and galaxies, this release is solely based on plate data outside the galactic plane, i.e. |b|>=27{deg}. The resulting global zero point error is less than 0.6 mas/yr, and the precision better than 4.0mas/yr for objects brighter than R_F_=18.5, rising to 9.0mas/yr for objects with magnitude in the range 18.5<R_F_<20.0. The catalog covers 22,525 square degrees and lists 100,774,153 objects to the limiting magnitude of R_F_~20.8. Alignment with the International Celestial Reference System (ICRS) was made using 1288 objects common to the second realization of the International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF2) at radio wavelengths. As a result, the coordinate axes realized by our astrometric data are believed to be aligned with the extragalactic radio frame to within +/-0.2mas at the reference epoch J2000.0. This makes our compilation one of the deepest and densest ICRF-registered astrometric catalogs outside the galactic plane. Although the Gaia mission is poised to set the new standard in catalog astronomy and will in many ways supersede this catalog, the methods and procedures reported here will prove useful to remove astrometric magnitude- and color-dependent systematic errors from the next generation of ground-based surveys reaching significantly deeper than the Gaia catalog.

- Description:
- In this paper, we present a complete reanalysis of the eclipsing systems, CM Dra, composed of two dM4.5 stars. New and existing light curves as well as a radial velocity curve are modeled to measure the physical properties of both components. The masses and radii determined for the components of CM Dra are M1=0.2310+/-0.0009M_{sun}_, M2=0.2141+/-0.0010M_{sun}_, R1=0.2534+/-0.0019R_{sun}_, and R2=0.2396+/-0.0015R_{sun}_. With relative uncertainties well below the 1% level, these values constitute the most accurate properties to date for fully convective stars.
