121. Catalog of SDSS compact groups of galaxies
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AJ/127/1811
Title:
Catalog of SDSS compact groups of galaxies
Short Name:
J/AJ/127/1811
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Compact groups (CGs) of galaxies - relatively poor groups of galaxies in which the typical separations between members is of the order of a galaxy diameter - offer an exceptional laboratory for the study of dense galactic environments with short (<1Gyr) dynamical timescales. We present an objectively defined catalog of CGs in 153deg^2^ of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Early Data Release (<J/AJ/123/567>). To identify CGs, we applied a modified version of Hickson's criteria of 1982 aimed at finding the highest-density CGs and thus reducing the number of chance alignments. Our catalog contains 175 CGs down to a limiting galaxy magnitude of r*=21. The resulting catalog has a median depth of z_med_~0.13, substantially deeper than previous CG catalogs. Since the SDSS will eventually image up to one-quarter of the celestial sphere, we expect our final catalog, based on the completed SDSS, will contain on the order of 5000-10000CGs. This catalog will be useful for conducting studies of the general characteristics of CGs, their environments, and their component galaxies.
122. Catalog of Southern Ringed Galaxies

Title:
Catalog of Southern Ringed Galaxies
Short Name:
J/ApJS/96/39
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Catalog of Southern Ringed Galaxies (CSRG) is a comprehensive compilation of diameters, axis ratios, relative bar position angles, and morphologies of inner and outer rings, pseudorings, and lenses in 3692 galaxies south of declination -17{deg}. The purpose of the catalog is to evaluate the idea that these ring phenomena are related to orbital resonances with a bar or oval in galaxy potentials. The catalog is based on visual inspection of most of the 606 fields of the Science Research Council (SRC) IIIa-J southern sky survey, with the ESO-B, ESO-R, and Palomar Sky surveys used as auxiliaries when needed for overexposed core regions. The catalog is most complete for SRC fields 1-303 (mostly south of declination -42{deg}). In addition to ringed galaxies, a list of 859 mostly nonringed galaxies intended for comparison with other catalogs is provided.
123. Catalog of 5268 Standard Stars, Normal System N30

Title:
Catalog of 5268 Standard Stars, Normal System N30
Short Name:
I/80
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The catalog was constructed primarily to assist in the reduction and interpretation of planetary observations, particularly those made in the nineteenth century. The new catalog was considered necessary because the only fundamental catalogs available at the time (FK3, GC) have mean epochs around 1900, and over the period of approximately fifty years, positional accuracies had deteriorated from cumulative effects of proper motion inaccuracies. The ADC version of the data file was prepared from the original file by reformatting and incorporating changes to effect uniformity in the data fields. The notes file was created at the ADC by keying the information directly to disk storage. Cross checks were performed to assure that all stars flagged as having notes have entries in the notes file and that all notes are flagged in the data file.
124. Catalog of Star-Forming Regions in the Galaxy

Title:
Catalog of Star-Forming Regions in the Galaxy
Short Name:
V/112A
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This Catalog of Star-Forming Regions in the Galaxy contains coordinates and fluxes of young objects in the radio and infrared, as well as data on the radial velocities of recombination and molecular lines, for more than three thousand star-forming regions. In addition to photometric and kinematic data, we present information on diffuse and reflecting nebulae, dark and molecular clouds, and other objects related to young stars. The catalog consists of two parts. The main catalog lists star-forming regions in order of Galactic longitude and is supplemented by analogous information for star-forming regions in complexes of dark clouds with large angular sizes that are closest to the Sun. In our preliminary study of the catalog data using a formal classification of the star-forming regions, we subdivided these objects into several classes and characterized them as being populated primarily by massive or low-mass stars at early or late stages of the star-formation process. We also distinguish between relatively nearby and distant complexes.
125. Catalog of Ultraluminous X-ray sources

Title:
Catalog of Ultraluminous X-ray sources
Short Name:
J/A+A/429/1125
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a catalogue of ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) in external galaxies. The aim of this catalogue is to provide easy access to the properties of ULXs, their possible counterparts at other wavelengths (optical, IR, and radio), and their host galaxies. The catalogue contains 229 ULXs reported in the literature until April 2004. Most ULXs are stellar-mass-black hole X-ray binaries, but it is not excluded that some ULXs could be intermediate-mass black holes. A small fraction of the candidate ULXs may be background Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) and Supernova Remnants (SNRs). ULXs with luminosity above 10^40^erg/s are found in both starburst galaxies and in the halos of early-type galaxies.

Catalogue of calibrator stars for LBSI
Short Name:
J/A+A/393/183
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Long baseline stellar interferometry shares with other techniques the need for calibrator stars in order to correct for instrumental and atmospheric effects. We present a catalogue of 374 stars carefully selected to be used for that purpose in the near infrared. Owing to several convergent criteria with the work of Cohen et al. (1999AJ....117.1864C), this catalogue is in essence a subset of their self-consistent all-sky network of spectro-photometric calibrator stars. For every star, we provide the angular limb-darkened diameter, uniform disc angular diameters in the J, H and K bands, the Johnson photometry and other useful parameters. Most stars are type III giants with spectral types K or M0, magnitudes V=3-7 and K=0-3. Their angular limb-darkened diameters range from 1 to 3 mas with a median uncertainty as low as 1.2%. The median distance from a given point on the sky to the closest reference is 5.2{deg}, whereas this distance never exceeds 16.4{deg} for any celestial location.

Description:
In this work we present a new catalogue of cosmic filaments obtained from the latest Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) public data. In order to detect filaments, we implement a version of the Subspace-Constrained Mean-Shift algorithm that is boosted by machine learning techniques. This allows us to detect cosmic filaments as one-dimensional maxima in the galaxy density distribution. Our filament catalogue uses the cosmological sample of SDSS, including Data Release 16, and therefore inherits its sky footprint (aside from small border effects) and redshift coverage. In particular, this means that, taking advantage of the quasar sample, our filament reconstruction covers redshifts up to z=2.2, making it one of the deepest filament reconstructions to our knowledge. We follow a tomographic approach and slice the galaxy data in 269 shells at different redshift. The reconstruction algorithm is applied to 2D spherical maps. The catalogue provides the position and uncertainty of each detection for each redshift slice. The quality of our detections, which we assess with several metrics, show improvement with respect to previous public catalogues obtained with similar methods. We also detect a highly significant correlation between our filament catalogue and galaxy cluster catalogues built from microwave observations of the Planck Satellite and the Atacama Cosmology Telescope.
129. Catalogue of features in the S4G

Title:
Catalogue of features in the S4G
Short Name:
J/A+A/582/A86
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
A catalogue of the features for the complete Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G), including 2352 nearby galaxies, is presented. The measurements are made using 3.6um images, largely tracing the old stellar population; at this wavelength the effects of dust are also minimal. The measured features are the sizes, ellipticities, and orientations of bars, rings, ringlenses, and lenses. Measured in a similar manner are also barlenses (lens-like structures embedded in the bars), which are not lenses in the usual sense, being rather the more face-on counterparts of the boxy/peanut structures in the edge-on view. In addition, pitch angles of spiral arm segments are measured for those galaxies where they can be reliably traced. More than one pitch angle may appear for a single galaxy. All measurements are made in a human- supervised manner so that attention is paid to each galaxy. We create a catalogue of morphological features in the complete S4G. We used isophotal analysis, unsharp masking, and fitting ellipses to measured structures. We find that the sizes of the inner rings and lenses normalized to barlength correlate with the galaxy mass: the normalized sizes increase toward the less massive galaxies; it has been suggested that this is related to the larger dark matter content in the bar region in these systems. Bars in the low mass galaxies are also less concentrated, likely to be connected to the mass cut-off in the appearance of the nuclear rings and lenses. We also show observational evidence that barlenses indeed form part of the bar, and that a large fraction of the inner lenses in the non-barred galaxies could be former barlenses in which the thin outer bar component has dissolved.
130. Catalogue of galaxies observed with Hectospec

Title:
Catalogue of galaxies observed with Hectospec
Short Name:
J/ApJS/256/4

Publisher:

Description:
We present redshifts for 2753 low-redshift (0.05~<z_spec_~<0.5) galaxies with 18<=r<=22 obtained with Hectospec at the Multi-Mirror Telescope (MMT). The observations targeted the XMM-LSS, ELAIS-N1 and DEEP2-3 fields, each of which covers ~1deg^2^. These fields are also part of the recently completed CFHT Large Area U-band Deep Survey (CLAUDS) and on-going Hyper Suprime-Cam deep fields surveys. The efficiency of our technique for selecting low-redshift galaxies is confirmed by the redshift distribution of our sources. In addition to redshifts, these high S/N spectra are used to measure ages, metallicities, and nuclear activity levels. In combination with the photometric catalogue in u, g, r, i, z, y down to 27 AB mag, we are able to study the galaxy population down to stellar masses of ~10^8^M_{sun}_ . This paper presents the observation strategy, the reduction procedure and properties of the galaxy sample. The catalog can be accessed through the webpage of this survey http://mips.as.arizona.edu/~cnaw/Faint_Low_z/.
