- 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:
- Having obtained new series of electronic spectra and UBV photometry of V1007 Sco, we analysed these data in an effort to check whether the observed properties of V1007 Sco indeed disagree with the prediction of stellar evolutionary models. We briefly analysed data for a few other binaries in NGC 6231, too. Spectral reductions were carried out with the MIDAS program, photometry reduced using the HEC22 program, the orbital elements were derived with the FOTEL program and the final solutions obtained with the program PHOEBE.

- Description:
- We present stellar radial velocity data for the Draco dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy obtained using the AF2/WYFFOS instrument combination on the William Herschel Telescope. Our data set consists of 186 member stars, 159 of which have good quality velocities, extending to a magnitude V~19.5 with a mean velocity precision of ~2km/s. As this survey is based on a high-precision photometric target list, it contains many more Draco members at large radii. For the first time, this allows a robust determination of the radial behaviour of the velocity dispersion in a dSph.

- Radial velocity measurements in LAMOST-II

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The radial velocity (RV) is a basic physical quantity that can be determined through the Doppler shift of the spectrum of a star. The precision of the RV measurement depends on the resolution of the spectrum we used and the accuracy of wavelength calibration. In this work, radial velocities of the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fibre Spectroscopic Telescope-II (LAMOST-II) medium-resolution (R~7500) spectra are measured for 1,594,956 spectra (each spectrum has two wavebands) through matching with templates. A set of RV standard stars are used to recalibrate the zero point of the measurement, and some reference sets with RVs derived from medium-/high-resolution observations are used to evaluate the accuracy of the measurement. By comparing with reference sets, the accuracy of our measurement can get 0.0277km/s with respect to radial velocities of standard stars. The intrinsic precision is estimated with the multiple observations of single stars, which can be achieved to 1.36km/s, 1.08km/s, and 0.91km/s for the spectra at signal-to-noise levels of 10, 20, and 50, respectively.

- Description:
- We present a determination of the precise fundamental physical parameters of 20 detached, double-lined, eclipsing binary stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) containing G- or early K-type giant stars. Eleven are new systems; the remaining nine are systems already analyzed by our team for which we present updated parameters. The catalog results from our long-term survey of eclipsing binaries in the Magellanic Clouds suitable for high-precision determination of distances (the Araucaria Project). The V-band brightnesses of the systems range from 15.4 to 17.7mag, and their orbital periods range from 49 to 773days. Six systems have favorable geometry showing total eclipses. The absolute dimensions of all eclipsing binary components are calculated with a precision of better than 3%, and all systems are suitable for a precise distance determination. The measured stellar masses are in the range 1.4 to 4.6M_{sun}_, and comparison with the MESA isochrones gives ages between 0.1 and 2.1Gyr. The systems show an age-metallicity relation with no evolution of metallicity for systems older than 0.6Gyr, followed by a rise to a metallicity maximum at age 0.5Gyr and then a slow metallicity decrease until 0.1Gyr. Two systems have components with very different masses: OGLE LMC-ECL-05430 and OGLE LMC-ECL-18365. Neither system can be fitted by a single stellar evolution isochrone, explained by a past mass transfer scenario in the case of ECL-18365 and a gravitational capture or hierarchical binary merger scenario in the case of ECL-05430. The longest-period system, OGLE LMC SC9_230659, shows a surprising apsidal motion that shifts the apparent position of the eclipses. This is a clear sign of a physical companion to the system; however, neither investigation of the spectra nor light-curve analysis indicates a third-light contribution larger than 2%-3%. In one spectrum of OGLE LMC-ECL-12669, we noted a peculiar dimming of one of the components by 65% well outside of the eclipses. We interpret this observation as arising from an extremely rare occultation event, as a foreground Galactic object covers only one component of an extragalactic eclipsing binary.

- Radiation fields in star-forming galaxies
- Short Name:

- CDS
- Description:
- We provide a library of diffuse stellar radiation fields in spiral galaxies derived using calculations of the transfer of stellar radiation from the main morphological components - discs, thin discs and bulges - through the dusty interstellar medium. These radiation fields are self-consistent with the solutions for the integrated panchromatic spectral energy distributions (SEDs) previously presented using the same model. Because of this, observables calculated from the radiation fields, such as gamma-ray or radio emission, can be self-consistently combined with the solutions for the ultraviolet/optical/submillimeter SEDs, thus expanding the range of applicability of the radiation transfer model to a broader range of wavelengths and physical quantities.

- Description:
- We provide a library for the ultraviolet - submillimetre (submm) interstellar radiation fields (ISRFs) of the Milky Way (MW), derived from modelling COBE, IRAS and Planck maps of the all-sky emission in the near-, mid-, far-infrared and submm. The library was produced using the axisymmetric radiative transfer model that we have previously implemented to model the panchromatic spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of star-forming galaxies in the nearby universe, but with a new methodology allowing for optimization of the radial and vertical geometry of stellar emissivity and dust opacity, as deduced from the highly resolved emission seen from the vantage point of the Sun.

- Description:
- We present the results from a sensitive multiwavelength analysis of the properties of extremely red objects (EROs). Our analysis employs deep RIzJHK photometry of an 8.5'x8.5' region to select a sample of 68 EROs with (R-K)>=5.3 and brighter than K=20.5 (5{sigma}). We combine this photometric data set with an extremely deep 1.4GHz radio map of the field obtained from the VLA. This map reaches a 1{sigma} limiting flux density of 3.5{mu}Jy , making it the deepest 1.4GHz map taken, and is sensitive enough to detect an active galaxy with L1.4>~10^23^W/Hz at z>1.

- Radio and IR counterparts of BLAST sources in CDFS
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/703/285
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have identified radio and/or mid-infrared counterparts to 198 out of 350 sources detected at >=5{sigma} over ~9deg^2^ centered on the Chandra Deep Field South by the Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (BLAST) at 250, 350, and 500um. We have matched 114 of these counterparts to optical sources with previously derived photometric redshifts and fitted spectral energy distributions to the BLAST fluxes and fluxes at 70 and 160um acquired with the Spitzer Space Telescope. In this way, we have constrained dust temperatures, total far-infrared/submillimeter luminosities, and star formation rates for each source. Our findings show that, on average, the BLAST sources lie at significantly lower redshifts and have significantly lower rest-frame dust temperatures compared to submillimeter sources detected in surveys conducted at 850um. We demonstrate that an apparent increase in dust temperature with redshift in our sample arises as a result of selection effects. Finally, we provide the full multiwavelength catalog of >=5{sigma} BLAST sources contained within the complete ~9deg^2^ survey area.

- Description:
- A sample of 76 ultra-steep spectrum (USS) radio sources is defined from the 843-MHz Sydney University Molonglo Sky Survey (SUMSS) and 1.4-GHz NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) radio surveys with spectral index {alpha}<-1.3 and S(1.4GHz)>15mJy; 71 of these sources without bright optical or near-infrared counterparts at 1.385GHz were observed with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), providing 5arcsec resolution images and subarcsec positional accuracy. To identify their host galaxies, near-infrared K-band images were obtained with IRIS2 at the AAT and SofI at the NTT; 92% of the USS sources could be identified down to K~20.5. 142 FITS files containing the radio maps and the K-band images are included in the fits subdirectory.
