- Description:
- Quasars are spatially stationary, and they are essential objects in astrometry when defining reference frames. However, the census of quasars is far from complete. Mid-infared colors can be used to find quasar candidates because AGNs show a peculiar appearance in mid-infrared color, but these methods are incapable of separating quasars from AGNs.The aim of our study is to use astrometric and mid-infrared methods to select quasars and get a reliable quasar candidates catalog. We used a near-zero proper motion criterion in conjuction with WISE (all-sky Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer) [W1-W2] color to select quasar candidates. The [W1-W2] color criterion is defined by the linear boundary of two samples: LAMOST DR5 quasars, which serve as the quasar sample, and LAMOST DR5 stars/galaxies, which serve as the non-quasar sample. The contamination and completeness are evaluated. We present a catalog of 662753 quasar candidates, with a completeness of about 75% and a reliability of 77.2%.

- Description:
- The table provides Hipparcos positions, Hipparcos & Tycho-2 proper motions, and CORAVEL radial velocities for 6691 K and M giants in the solar neighbourhood, mostly from the Hipparcos survey. A bayesian maximum-likelihood approach has been used to derive the distances and space velocities. New V-I indices, computed from a color transformation based on Hp-V_T2_, are also provided. Spectroscopic binaries have been identified as well. These data may be used to study the kinematics of giant stars in the solar neighbourhood, and to correlate it with their location in the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram.

- Description:
- The Hundred-Thousand-Proper-Motion (HTPM) project will determine the proper motions of ~113500 stars using a ~23-year baseline. The proper motions will be based on space-based measurements exclusively, with the Hipparcos data, with epoch 1991.25, as first epoch and with the first intermediate-release Gaia astrometry, with epoch ~2014.5, as second epoch. The expected HTPM proper-motion standard errors are 30-190{mu}as/yr, depending on stellar magnitude. Depending on the astrometric characteristics of an object, in particular its distance and velocity, its radial velocity can have a significant impact on the determination of its proper motion. The impact of this perspective acceleration is largest for fast-moving, nearby stars. Our goal is to determine, for each star in the Hipparcos catalogue, the radial-velocity standard error that is required to guarantee a negligible contribution of perspective acceleration to the HTPM proper-motion precision.

- Description:
- We present 178 radial velocity measurements for 166 late-type stars selected from the Luyten Half-Second (LHS) proper motion catalog (Cat. <I/87>). Space velocities are given for all but two of them. Most of the stars lie within 25pc of the Sun, but the list includes a handful of high-velocity transients from the halo population.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Ruprecht 147 is a hitherto unappreciated open cluster that holds great promise as a standard in fundamental stellar astrophysics. We have conducted a radial velocity survey of astrometric candidates with Lick, Palomar, and MMT observatories and have identified over 100 members, including 5 blue stragglers, 11 red giants, and 5 double-lined spectroscopic binaries (SB2s). We estimate the cluster metallicity from spectroscopic analysis, using Spectroscopy Made Easy (SME), and find it to be [M/H]=+0.07+/-0.03. We have obtained deep CFHT/MegaCam g'r'i'z' photometry and fit Padova isochrones to the (g'-i') and Two Micron All Sky Survey (J-K_S_) color-magnitude diagrams, using the {tau}^2^ maximum-likelihood procedure of Naylor, and an alternative method using two-dimensional cross-correlations developed in this work. We find best fits for Padova isochrones at age t=2.5+/-0.25Gyr, m-M=7.35+/-0.1, and A_V_=0.25+/-0.05, with additional uncertainty from the unresolved binary population and possibility of differential extinction across this large cluster. The inferred age is heavily dependent on our choice of stellar evolution model: fitting Dartmouth and PARSEC models yield age parameters of 3Gyr and 3.25Gyr, respectively. At ~300pc and ~3Gyr, Ruprecht 147 is by far the oldest nearby star cluster.

- Description:
- The catalogue of radial velocities of Galactic stars with high precision astrometric data (CRVAD) is the result of a merging of star lists from the General Catalog of Mean Radial Velocities (GCRV, Cat. III/213) and from the All-sky Compiled Catalogue of 2.5 Million Stars (ASCC-2.5, Cat. I/280). The cross identification of GCRV and ASCC-2.5 objects was carried out with help of coordinate, magnitude, colour and/or spectral type criteria. Data from the Catalogue of Components of Double and Multiple Stars (CCDM, Cat. I/274) were taken into account for the identification of multiple system components. 34553 stars of the ASCC-2.5 were identified with 33509 stars of the GCRV, i.e. 33509 stars of the GCRV have one entry in the ASCC-2.5, and 1044 objects have two entries. The catalogue includes accurate equatorial coordinates J2000, proper motions and trigonometric parallaxes in the Hipparcos system, B and V magnitudes in Johnson system, spectral classes, multiplicity and variability flags from the ASCC-2.5, and radial velocities, stellar magnitudes and spectra from the GCRV. Stars are sorted in right ascension J2000 order. 3967 stars were selected as radial velocity standard candidates (file rv_std.dat). These stars: - do not have any multiplicity and/or variability flags both in the GCRV and ASCC-2.5; - have standard errors of equatorial coordinates e <= 40 mas; - have standard errors of proper motions e_pm <= 4 mas/yr; - have standard errors of V magnitude e_V <= 0.05 mag and (B-V) colour e_(B-V) <= 0.07 mag; - have standard errors of radial velocity e_RV <= 2 km/s or quality index A or B, which corresponds to e_RV 0.74 and 1.78 km/s; - have at least four RV observations N_RV.

- Radial velocity curve of RBS 490

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- RBS (ROSAT Bright Source) 0490 is a cataclysmic variable star (CV) with unusually strong emission lines. The strength of the emission lines has led to a suggestion that the object is intrinsically faint and correspondingly nearby (33pc), which, if true, would strongly affect estimates of the CV space density. Here we report astrometry, filter photometry, and time-series spectroscopy of this object. The astrometry gives an absolute parallax of 4.5+/-1.5mas and a relative proper motion of 102mas/yr. A Bayesian procedure gives a very uncertain distance estimate of d~300pc, and the small parallax alone implies d>133pc (at 2 standard deviations). The mean V magnitude is 17.4, which implies M_V_=10.9-5log[d/(200pc)], neglecting extinction. At 200pc, the space velocity would be over 90km/s with respect to the local standard of rest. The time-series spectroscopy shows a possible emission-line radial velocity period near 46 minutes. This would be unusually short for an orbital period, and it may represent some other clock in the system.

- Description:
- Radio astrometry of nearby, low-mass stars has the potential to be a powerful tool for the discovery and characterization of planetary companions. We present a Very Large Array survey of 172 active M dwarfs at distances of less than 10pc. Twenty-nine stars were detected with flux densities greater than 100uJy. We observed seven of these stars with the Very Long Baseline Array at milliarcsecond resolution in three separate epochs. With a detection threshold of 500uJy in images of sensitivity 1{sigma}~100uJy, we detected three stars three times (GJ 65B, GJ 896A, GJ 4247), one star twice (GJ 285), and one star once (GJ 803). Two stars were undetected (GJ 412B and GJ 1224). For the four stars detected in multiple epochs, residuals from the optically determined apparent motions have an root-mean-square deviation of ~0.2 milliarcseconds, consistent with statistical noise limits. Combined with previous optical astrometry, these residuals provide acceleration upper limits that allow us to exclude planetary companions more massive than 3-6M_Jup_ at a distance of ~1AU with a 99% confidence level.

- Description:
- We have used the Very Large Array, linked with the Pie Town Very Long Baseline Array antenna, to determine astrometric positions of 46 radio stars in the International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF). Positions were obtained in the ICRF directly through phase referencing of the stars to nearby ICRF quasars whose positions are accurate at the 0.25mas level. Radio star positions are estimated to be accurate at the 10mas level, with position errors approaching a few milliarcseconds for some of the stars observed. Our measured positions were combined with previous measurements taken from as early as 1978 to obtain proper-motion estimates for all 46 stars with average uncertainties of ~1.7mas/yr.

- Description:
- Galactic open clusters (OCs) mainly belong to the young stellar population in the Milky Way disk, but are there groups and complexes of OCs that possibly define an additional level in hierarchical star formation? Current compilations are too incomplete to address this question, especially regarding radial velocities (RVs) and metallicities ([M/H]). Here we present the parameters for the final working sample of 432 open clusters, as well as the mean parameters for the 19 detected potential open cluster groupings.
