- Description:
- MgII line is of extreme importance for intermediate quasars since it allows to measure the black hole mass in these sources and to use them as probes of the distribution of dark energy in the Universe, as a complementary tool to SN Ia. Reliable use of MgII requires good understanding of all systematic effects involved in the measurement of the line properties, including the contamination by FeII UV emission.

- Description:
- In this paper we study in detail the variability of the symbiotic nova AG Peg in the IUE range during the period 1978-1995. We find that the luminosity of the hot component decreased steadily from about 1850L_{sun}_ in 1978 to 430L_{sun}_ in 1995 while its effective temperature remained nearly constant, 86500+/-1300K. At the same time, the mass loss rate decreased by a factor of 4-5 although the ejection velocity remained constant. The observed fainting of both the narrow and the broad emission lines is ascribed to the decrease of the luminosity and ionizing flux from the hot source. The narrow emission lines and the long wavelength UV continuum show periodic variations arising from a dense and asymmetric nebular region associated with the cool star. Radial velocity variations of the narrow lines indicate that this region is receding from the center of mass of the system, and support the presence of the ablation tail suggested by Penston and Allen (1985MNRAS.212..939P). No periodic flux variations are seen in the short wavelength ultraviolet continuum and in the broad emission lines, which are both formed in the fast wind from the hot component.

- Description:
- This catalogue is an extension in the ultraviolet region (129 to 3903 Angstroems) of the ILLSS catalogue (Coluzzi, 1993; catalog <VI/71>) which lists lines in the optical region. The data are from "Ultraviolet Multiplet Table" (Moore 1950, 1952, 1962) and arranged in two files: the catalogue and the references. There are two versions of each file, one presented in the author's original format, and the second organised as a table. The reference files are arranged by element: for each spectrum the first line contains within parenthesis the Ionization Potential; the grade of analysis; the grade denoting the relative number of classified lines included as compared with the total number classified in the ultraviolet; the date of completion of the manuscript; the limit for three spectra H, He I, He II. The limit in cm-1 has been multiplied by the factor 0.00012345 to obtain the tabulated ionisation potential, which is expressed in electron-Volts. The analysis grades range from A to E, grade A indicating that the analysis is essentially complete ,and grade E that the structure has been recognised, but is limited to a single multiplet or transition. List A, List B, etc., denote the relative numbers of classified lines listed here as compared with the total number classified in the ultraviolet, A denoting that all classified lines in the ultraviolet are listed, and D that only a few of the leading ones are tabulated. The letters on the left, A, B, C, etc. preceding the reference, indicate the source used for the wavelength quoted in the Table. Those papers used only for analysis or intensity follow the ones used for wavelength, and are not preceded by the letters denoting the source. The letters "WL", "I", "T", indicating what was taken from each paper for the Table compilation , denote, respectively, wavelength, intensity, and terms, the last referring to the analysis of the spectrum. These informations are taken from Moore (1950).

- Description:
- We present a polarimetric and spectroscopic study of the persistent ultra-compact X-ray binary 4U 0614+091 aimed at searching for the emission of a relativistic particle jet and at unveiling the orbital period Porb of the system. We obtained r-band polarimetric observations with the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (TNG) equipped with the PAOLO polarimeter and with the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) equipped with the ALFOSC instrument, covering ~2h and ~0.5h observations, respectively. We carried out low resolution spectroscopy of the system using the ESO Very Large Telescope equipped with FORS1 for ~1.5h (16 spectra covering the range 4300-8000{AA}).

- Description:
- We report on the properties of a sample of ultraviolet-luminous galaxies (UVLGs) selected by matching the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) All-Sky Imaging and Medium Imaging Surveys with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey third data release. The overlap between these two surveys is roughly 450deg^2^. Of 25362 galaxies (with SDSS spectroscopy) in the range 0.0<z<0.3 detected by GALEX, there are 215 galaxies with L>2x10^10^L{sun} at 1530{AA} (observed wavelength).

- UV-NIR LCs of the energetic H-stripped SN2016coi
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present comprehensive observations and analysis of the energetic H-stripped SN 2016coi (a.k.a. ASASSN-16fp), spanning the {gamma}-ray through optical and radio wavelengths, acquired within the first hours to ~420 days post explosion. Our observational campaign confirms the identification of He in the supernova (SN) ejecta, which we interpret to be caused by a larger mixing of Ni into the outer ejecta layers. By modeling the broad bolometric light curve, we derive a large ejecta-mass-to-kinetic-energy ratio (M_ej_~4-7M_{sun}_, E_k_~(7-8)x10^51^erg). The small [CaII]{lambda}{lambda}7291,7324 to [OI]{lambda}{lambda}6300,6364 ratio (~0.2) observed in our late-time optical spectra is suggestive of a large progenitor core mass at the time of collapse. We find that SN 2016coi is a luminous source of X-rays (L_X_>10^39^erg/s in the first ~100 days post explosion) and radio emission (L_8.5GHz_~7x10^27^erg/s/Hz at peak). These values are in line with those of relativistic SNe (2009bb, 2012ap). However, for SN 2016coi, we infer substantial pre-explosion progenitor mass loss with a rate dM/dt~(1-2)x10^-4^M_{sun}_/yr and a sub-relativistic shock velocity v_sh_~0.15c, which is in stark contrast with relativistic SNe and similar to normal SNe. Finally, we find no evidence for a SN- associated shock breakout {gamma}-ray pulse with energy E_{gamma}_>2x10^46^erg. While we cannot exclude the presence of a companion in a binary system, taken together, our findings are consistent with a massive single-star progenitor that experienced large mass loss in the years leading up to core collapse, but was unable to achieve complete stripping of its outer layers before explosion.

- Description:
- Early observations of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) provide essential clues for understanding the progenitor system that gave rise to the terminal thermonuclear explosion. We present exquisite observations of SN 2019yvq, the second observed SN Ia, after iPTF 14atg, to display an early flash of emission in the ultraviolet (UV) and optical. Our analysis finds that SN 2019yvq was unusual, even when ignoring the initial flash, in that it was moderately underluminous for an SN Ia (M_g_~-18.5mag at peak) yet featured very high absorption velocities (v~15000km/s for SiII{lambda}6355 at peak). We find that many of the observational features of SN 2019yvq, aside from the flash, can be explained if the explosive yield of radioactive 56Ni is relatively low (we measure M_56Ni_=0.31+/-0.05M_{sun}_) and it and other iron-group elements are concentrated in the innermost layers of the ejecta. To explain both the UV/optical flash and peak properties of SN 2019yvq we consider four different models: interaction between the SN ejecta and a nondegenerate companion, extended clumps of ^56^Ni in the outer ejecta, a double-detonation explosion, and the violent merger of two white dwarfs. Each of these models has shortcomings when compared to the observations; it is clear additional tuning is required to better match SN 2019yvq. In closing, we predict that the nebular spectra of SN 2019yvq will feature either H or He emission, if the ejecta collided with a companion, strong [CaII] emission, if it was a double detonation, or narrow [OI] emission, if it was due to a violent merger.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We have computed evolutionary synthesis models covering metallicities from PopIII to solar, a wide range of IMFs, and two star-formation histories (bursts and constant star-formation). The detailed predictions these models, including their time dependence, are given here. The predicted quantities include ionising fluxes, UV continuum properties, recombination line strengths (for Ly{alpha}, HeII and other lines), as well as several other quantities of interest. The models provided here cover a wider range of parameter space than our earlier calculations (Schaerer, 2003A&A...397..527S, Cat. VI/109).

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The table contains the first results of a spectroscopic survey of galaxies constructed from a flux-limited sample of stars, galaxies and QSOs imaged at 2000{AA} with the FOCA balloon-borne imaging camera (see Milliard et al., 1992A&A...257...24M) The galaxies were selected in the rest frame ultraviolet (UV), in Selected Area 57. Accurate positions for the UV sources have been obtained by matching with optical counterparts using APM scans of the Palomar Sky Survey limited at B=20.5. The results presented here are derived from optical spectroscopy conducted with the WIYN telescope and the WHT for 142 faint sources. The redshift distribution for this UV- selected sample extends over 0<z<0.5, and a high fraction of the sources show intense nebular emission lines and UV-optical colours bluer than normal Hubble sequence galaxies. Updated results for these galaxies were published later (see Sullivan et al. 2000, Cat. <J/MNRAS/312/442>)
