We present a new accurate catalog of narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s) in the southern hemisphere from the Six-degree Field Galaxy Survey (6dFGS) final data release, which is currently the most extensive spectroscopic survey available in the southern sky whose database has not yet been systematically explored. We classified 167 sources as NLS1s based on their optical spectral properties. We derived flux-calibrated spectra for the first time that the 6dFGS does not provide. By analyzing these spectra, we obtained strong correlations between the monochromatic luminosity at 5100 Angstrom and the luminosities of H-beta and [OIII] lines. The central black hole mass and the Eddington ratio have average values of 0.86x10^7^M_{sun}_ and 0.96L_Edd_ respectively, which are typical values for NLS1s. In the sample, 23 (13.8%) NLS1s were detected at radio frequencies, and 12 (7.0%) of them are radio-loud. Our results confirmed that radio-loud sources tend to have higher redshift, a more massive black hole, and higher radio and optical luminosities than radio-quiet sources.
We present a new catalog of 406 dense cores optically selected by using the STScI Digitized Sky Survey (DSS). In this catalog 306 cores have neither an embedded young stellar object (EYSO) nor a pre-main-sequence (PMS) star, 94 cores have EYSOs (one core has both an EYSO and a PMS star), and six cores have PMS stars only. Our sample of dense cores in the catalog is fairly complete within a category of northern Lynds class 5 and 6 clouds and southern Hartley et al. class A clouds, providing a database useful for the systematic study of dense cores. Most of the cores listed in the catalog have diameters between 0.05 and 0.36 pc with a mean of ~0.24pc. The sizes (~0.33pc in the mean) of cores with EYSOs are found to be usually larger than the sizes (~0.22pc in the mean) of starless cores. The typical mean gas density of the cores is ~7x10^3^cm^-3^. Most of the cores are more likely elongated than spherical (mean aspect ratio: ~2.4). The ratio of the number of cores with EYSOs to the number of starless cores for our sample is about 0.3, suggesting that the typical lifetime of starless cores is 0.3-1.6Myr, about 3 times longer than the duration of the class 0 and class I phases. This lifetime is shorter than expected from models of ambipolar diffusion, by factors of 2-44.
We present results from Planetary Nebula Spectrograph (PN.S) observations of the elliptical galaxy NGC 3379 and a description of the data reduction pipeline. We detected 214 planetary nebulae, of which 191 are ascribed to NGC 3379 and 23 to the companion galaxy NGC 3384.
We present a catalog of 535 planetary nebulae (PNs) discovered in the flattened elliptical galaxy NGC 4697, using the FORS1 Cassegrain spectrograph of the Very Large Telescope of the European Southern Observatory at Cerro Paranal, Chile. The catalog provides positions [(x,y)-coordinates relative to the center of light of NGC 4697, as well as {alpha},{delta}] and, for almost all PNs, the magnitude m(5007) and the heliocentric radial velocity in km/s.
Catalog of Positions of IR Stellar Sources (CPIRSS)
Short Name:
I/270
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The U.S. Naval Observatory Catalog of Positions of Infrared Stellar Sources (CPIRSS) was originally compiled in 1994 to provide astrometry at the sub-arcsecond level for many of the point sources in the 1987 version of the IRAS Point Source Catalog (NASA RP-1190). This was accomplished by the identification of IRAS sources with bright optical stars, checked by requiring the color V-[12] (with [12] being a magnitude derived from the IRAS flux) to be consistent with the optical colors or spectral type. Additionally, the K magnitude (2.2 microns) has been estimated. This version, completed in 2001, contains 37,700 stars and includes the Hipparcos and Tycho-2 astrometry and photometry which was unavailable at the time of the original compilation.
The catalogue is a compilation of the principal observed parameters of 706 pulsars (updated from 558 pulsars in the previous version), including positions, timing parameters, pulse widths, flux densities, proper motions, distances, and dispersion, rotation, and scattering measures. It also lists the orbital elements of binary pulsars, and some commonly used parameters derived from the basic measurements. Uncertainties are quoted for most quantities.

This catalog groups the 2442 galaxies making up the sample of distant galaxies prepared by the authors published as 3 papers in 2009: radio data (paper I, table1), photometric data (paper II, table2), and angular sizes (paper III, table 3). The sample of distant (z>0.3) radio galaxies is aimed at application in cosmological tests. It was created using NED, SDSS, and CATS databases, and is assumed to be cleaned from objects with quasar properties.
