- Description:
- High-resolution mid-infrared spectra are presented for 155 nuclear and extranuclear regions from the Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey (SINGS). The fluxes for nine atomic forbidden and three molecular hydrogen mid-infrared emission lines are also provided, along with upper limits in key lines for infrared-faint targets. The SINGS sample shows a wide range in the ratio of [SIII]18.71um/[SIII]33.48um, but the average ratio of the ensemble indicates a typical interstellar electron density of 300-400cm^-3^ on ~23x15" scales and 500-600cm^-3^ using ~11x9" apertures, independent of whether the region probed is a star-forming nuclear, a star-forming extranuclear, or an active galactic nuclei (AGN) environment.

- Description:
- The Spitzer-SDSS-GALEX Spectroscopic Survey (SSGSS) provides a new sample of 101 star-forming galaxies at z<0.2 with unprecedented multi-wavelength coverage. New mid- to far-infrared spectroscopy from the Spitzer Space Telescope is added to a rich suite of previous imaging and spectroscopy, including ROSAT, Galaxy Evolution Explorer, Sloan Digital Sky Survey, Two Micron All Sky Survey, and Spitzer/SWIRE. Sample selection ensures an even coverage of the full range of normal galaxy properties, spanning two orders of magnitude in stellar mass, color, and dust attenuation. In this paper we present the SSGSS data set, describe the science drivers, and detail the sample selection, observations, data reduction, and quality assessment.

- Title:

- Description:
- We present optical light curves, redshifts, and classifications for 365 spectroscopically confirmed Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered by the Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) Medium Deep Survey. We detail improvements to the PS1 SN photometry, astrometry, and calibration that reduce the systematic uncertainties in the PS1 SN Ia distances. We combine the subset of 279 PS1 SNe Ia (0.03<z<0.68) with useful distance estimates of SNe Ia from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), SNLS, and various low-z and Hubble Space Telescope samples to form the largest combined sample of SNe Ia, consisting of a total of 1048 SNe Ia in the range of 0.01<z<2.3, which we call the "Pantheon Sample". When combining Planck 2015 cosmic microwave background (CMB) measurements with the Pantheon SN sample, we find {Omega}_m_=0.307+/-0.012 and w=-1.026+/-0.041 for the wCDM model. When the SN and CMB constraints are combined with constraints from BAO and local H_0_ measurements, the analysis yields the most precise measurement of dark energy to date: w_0_=-1.007+/-0.089 and w_a_=-0.222+/-0.407 for the w_0_w_a_CDM model. Tension with a cosmological constant previously seen in an analysis of PS1 and low-z SNe has diminished after an increase of 2x in the statistics of the PS1 sample, improved calibration and photometry, and stricter light-curve quality cuts. We find that the systematic uncertainties in our measurements of dark energy are almost as large as the statistical uncertainties, primarily due to limitations of modeling the low-redshift sample. This must be addressed for future progress in using SNe Ia to measure dark energy.

- Title:
- The TESS-Keck Survey. I. HD332231 Radial Velocities
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/159/241
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We report the detection of a Saturn-size exoplanet orbiting HD332231 (TOI1456) in light curves from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). HD332231 an F8 dwarf star with a V-band magnitude of 8.56 was observed by TESS in Sectors 14 and 15. We detect a single-transit event in the Sector 15 presearch data conditioning (PDC) light curve. We obtain spectroscopic follow up observations of HD332231 with the Automated Planet Finder (APF), Keck I, and Spatial Observations Network Group (SONG) telescopes. The orbital period we infer from radial velocity (RV) observations leads to the discovery of another transit in Sector 14 that was masked by PDC due to scattered light contamination. A joint analysis of the transit and RV data confirms the planetary nature of HD332231b, a Saturn-size (0.867_-0.025_^+0.027^R_J_), sub-Saturn-mass (0.244{+/-}0.021M_J_) exoplanet on a 18.71day circular orbit. The low surface gravity of HD332231b and the relatively low stellar flux it receives make it a compelling target for transmission spectroscopy. Also, the stellar obliquity is likely measurable via the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect, an exciting prospect given the 0.14au orbital separation of HD332231b. The spectroscopic observations do not provide substantial evidence for any additional planets in the HD332231 system, but continued RV monitoring is needed to further characterize this system. We also predict that the frequency and duration of masked data in the PDC light curves for TESS Sectors 14-16 could hide transits of some exoplanets with orbital periods between 10.5 and 17.5days.

- CDS
- Description:
- Internal kinematics, spectroscopic binaries and galactic motion are investigated for the trapezium system BD+00 1617 (which lies at the heart of the young open cluster Bochum 2) by means on 73 high resolution Echelle+CCD spectra secured over the period 1994-98. Two of the three O-type member stars are found to be binaries on close and highly eccentric orbits of 6.8 and 11.0 day period. Tables 2 and 3, that are available only in electronic form, give the journal of the observations and the individual radial velocities.

- Title:

- Description:
- The 1612MHz hydroxyl maser in circumstellar envelopes has long been thought to be pumped by 34.6{mu}m photons. Only recently, the Infrared Space Observatory has made possible spectroscopic observations which enable the direct confirmation of this pumping mechanism in a few cases. To look for the presence of this pumping line, we have searched the Infrared Space Observatory Data Archive and found 178 spectra with data around 34.6{mu}m for 87 galactic 1612MHz masers.

- Title:
- The UV low-redshift intergalactic medium
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/759/112
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a comprehensive catalog of ultraviolet (HST/STIS and FUSE) absorbers in the low-redshift intergalactic medium (IGM) at z<0.4. The catalog draws from much of the extensive literature on IGM absorption and reconciles discrepancies among several previous catalogs through a critical evaluation of all reported absorption features in light of new HST/COS data. We report on 746 H I absorbers down to a rest-frame equivalent width of 12m{AA} over a maximum redshift path length {Delta}z=5.38. We also confirm 111 O VI absorbers, 29 C IV absorbers, and numerous absorption lines due to other metal ions. We characterize the bivariate distribution of absorbers in redshift and column density as a power law, ({partial}^2^N/{partial}z{partial}N){propto}N^-{beta}^, where {beta}=2.08+/-0.12 for O VI and {beta}=1.68+/-0.03 for H I. Utilizing a more sophisticated accounting technique than past work, our catalog accounts for ~43% of the baryons: 24+/-2% in the photoionized Ly{alpha} forest and 19+/-2% in the warm-hot IGM as traced by O VI. We discuss the large systematic effects of various assumed metallicities and ionization states on these calculations, and we implement recent simulation results in our estimates.

- Title:
- The very high-eccentricity binary HR 7345
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/156/144
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- After an 11-year observing campaign, we present the combined visual-spectroscopic orbit of the formerly unremarkable bright star HR 7345 (HD 181655, HIP 94981, GJ 754.2). Using the Separated Fringe Packet method with the CHARA Array, we were able to determine a difficult-to-complete orbital period of 331.609+/-0.004 days. The 11-month period causes the system to be hidden from interferometric view behind the Sun for three years at a time. Due to the high-eccentricity orbit of about 90% of a year, after 2018 January the periastron phase will not be observable again until late 2021. Hindered by its extremely high eccentricity of 0.9322+/-0.0001, the double-lined spectroscopic phase of HR 7345 is observable for 15 days. Such a high eccentricity for HR 7345 places it among the most eccentric systems in catalogs of both visual and spectroscopic orbits. For this system, we determine nearly identical component masses of 0.941+/-0.076 M_{sun}_ and 0.926+/-0.075 M_{sun}_ as well as an orbital parallax of 41.08+/-0.77 mas.
