1761. Supernovae in the Subaru Deep Field
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/MNRAS/382/1169
Title:
Supernovae in the Subaru Deep Field
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/382/1169
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Large samples of high-redshift supernovae (SNe) are potentially powerful probes of cosmic star formation, metal enrichment and SN physics. We present initial results from a new deep SN survey, based on re-imaging in the R, i', z' bands, of the 0.25deg^2^ Subaru Deep Field (SDF), with the 8.2-m Subaru telescope and Suprime-Cam. In a single new epoch consisting of two nights of observations, we have discovered 33 candidate SNe, down to a z'-band magnitude of 26.3 (AB). We have measured the photometric redshifts of the SN host galaxies, obtained Keck spectroscopic redshifts for 17 of the host galaxies and classified the SNe using the Bayesian photometric algorithm of Poznanski et al. (2007AJ....134.1285P) that relies on template matching.

CDS
Description:
The total flux densities of more than one hundred galactic supernova remnants (SNR) at 111, 102, and 83MHz, measured at Pushchino using the E-W WBCR-1000 and LSA radio telescopes, to an accuracy of 2Jy or better; the spectral indices, with their errors, obtained from the compiled spectra; and optical depths at 100MHz in the direction of the supernova remnants are reported. The latter values are obtained from a low frequency cutoff caused by interstellar gas absorption, which was detected at meter and decimeter wavelengths in the direction of 38% of the supernova remnants.
1763. Surface photometry of nearby field galaxies
ID:

Title:
Surface photometry of nearby field galaxies
Short Name:
J/ApJS/126/271
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We have obtained integrated spectra and multifilter photometry for a representative sample of ~200 nearby galaxies. These galaxies span the entire Hubble sequence in morphological type, as well as a wide range of luminosities (M_B_=-14 to -22) and colors (B-R=0.4-1.8). Here we describe the sample selection criteria and the U, B, R surface photometry for these galaxies. The spectrophotometric results will be presented in a companion paper (Cat. <J/ApJS/126/331>).
1764. Survey of faint compact objects
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/MNRAS/253/686
Title:
Survey of faint compact objects
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/253/686
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present results from a low-resolution (73A) spectroscopic survey of faint compact objects conducted with the Low Dispersion Survey Spectrograph at the Anglo-Australian Telescope. The sample is a random subset of all compact sources with 22.5<=b_j_<=23.5 in three high-latitude fields. Additional data on compact sources with 21<=b_j_<=22.5 have been selected from the higher resolution (13A) survey previously published by Colless et al. (1990), and a subset of these brighter objects has been studied at both dispersions.
1765. Survey of Galactic Center region at 20cm
ID:

Title:
Survey of Galactic Center region at 20cm
Short Name:
J/ApJS/155/421
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This is the first in a series of papers presenting a sensitive 20cm VLA continuum survey of the Galactic center region using new and archival data based on multiconfiguration observations taken with relatively uniform uv coverage. The high dynamic range images cover the regions within -2{deg}<l<5{deg} and -40'<b<40' with a spatial resolution of ~30" and 10". The wide field imaging technique is used to construct a low-resolution mosaic of 40 overlapping pointings. The mosaic image includes the Effelsberg observations filling the low spatial frequency uv data. We also present high-resolution images of 23 overlapping fields using DnC and CnB array configurations. These high-resolution images are sensitive to both compact and extended continuum features with a wide range of angular scales with rms noise of 0.2mJy/beam in the outer parts of the Galactic center region. The survey has resulted in a catalog of 345 discrete sources as well as 140 images revealing structural details of HII regions, supernova remnants, pulsar wind nebulae, and more than 80 linear filaments distributed toward the complex region of the Galactic center.

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We analyze the optical properties of {~}300 galaxies within and around three prominent voids of the Center for Astrophysics Redshift Survey. We determine CCD morphologies and H{alpha} equivalent widths from our imaging and spectroscopic survey. We also describe a redshift survey of 250 neighboring galaxies in the imaging survey fields. We assess the morphology-density relation, EW(H{alpha})-density relation, and the effects of nearby companions for galaxies in low-density environments selected with a smoothed large-scale (5 h^-1^ Mpc) galaxy number density n.

Title:
Survey of galaxies within prominent nearby voids
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We study the optical properties of a large sample of galaxies in low-density regions of the nearby universe. We make a 5 h^-1^ Mpc smoothed map of the galaxy density throughout the Center for Astrophysics Redshift Survey (CfA2) to identify galaxies within three prominent nearby "voids" with diameter {>=} 30 h^-1^ Mpc. We augment the CfA2 void galaxy sample with fainter galaxies found in the same regions from the more recent and deeper Century and Redshift surveys. We obtain B and R CCD images and high signal-to-noise long-slit spectra for the resulting sample of 149 void galaxies, as well as for an additional 131 galaxies on the periphery of these voids. Here we describe the photometry for the sample, including B isophotal magnitudes and B-R colors.
1768. Survey of novae in M31
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJ/734/12
Title:
Survey of novae in M31
Short Name:
J/ApJ/734/12
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We report the results of a multi-year spectroscopic and photometric survey of novae in M31 that resulted in a total of 53 spectra of 48 individual nova candidates. Two of these, M31N 1995-11e and M31N 2007-11g, were revealed to be long-period Mira variables, not novae. These data double the number of spectra extant for novae in M31 through the end of 2009 and bring to 91 the number of M31 novae with known spectroscopic classifications. We find that 75 novae (82%) are confirmed or likely members of the FeII spectroscopic class, with the remaining 16 novae (18%) belonging to the He/N (and related) classes. These numbers are consistent with those found for Galactic novae. We find no compelling evidence that spectroscopic class depends sensitively on spatial position or population within M31 (i.e., bulge versus disk), although the distribution for He/N systems appears slightly more extended than that for the FeII class. We confirm the existence of a correlation between speed class and ejection velocity (based on line width), as in the case of Galactic novae. Follow-up photometry allowed us to determine light-curve parameters for a total of 47 of the 91 novae with known spectroscopic class. We confirm that more luminous novae generally fade the fastest and that He/N novae are typically faster and brighter than their FeII counterparts. In addition, we find a weak dependence of nova speed class on position in M31, with the spatial distribution of the fastest novae being slightly more extended than that of slower novae.
1769. Survey of stellar & planetary comp. within 25pc

Title:
Survey of stellar & planetary comp. within 25pc
Short Name:
J/AJ/161/134
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We explore the impact of outer stellar companions on the occurrence rate of giant planets detected with radial velocities. We searched for stellar and planetary companions to a volume-limited sample of solar-type stars within 25pc. Using adaptive optics imaging observations from the Lick 3m and Palomar 200" Telescopes, we characterized the multiplicity of our sample stars, down to the bottom of the main sequence. With these data, we confirm field star multiplicity statistics from previous surveys. We additionally combined three decades of radial velocity (RV) data from the California Planet Search with newly collected RV data from Keck/HIRES and the Automated Planet Finder/Levy Spectrometer to search for planetary companions in these same systems. Using an updated catalog of both stellar and planetary companions, as well as detailed injection/recovery tests to determine our sensitivity and completeness, we measured the occurrence rate of planets among the single and multiple-star systems. We found that planets with masses in the range of 0.1-10M_J_ and with semimajor axes of 0.1-10au have an occurrence rate of 0.18_-0.03_^+0.04^ planets per star when they orbit single stars and an occurrence rate of 0.12{+/-}0.04 planets per star when they orbit a star in a binary system. Breaking the sample down by the binary separation, we found that only one planet-hosting binary system had a binary separation <100au, and none had a separation <50au. These numbers yielded planet occurrence rates of 0.20_-0.06_^+0.07^ planets per star for binaries with separation aB>100au and 0.04_-0.02_^+0.04^ planets per star for binaries with separation aB<100au. The similarity in the planet occurrence rate around single stars and wide primaries implies that wide binary systems should actually host more planets than single-star systems, since they have more potential host stars. We estimated a system-wide planet occurrence rate of 0.3 planets per wide binary system for binaries with separations aB>100au. Finally, we found evidence that giant planets in binary systems have a different semimajor-axis distribution than their counterparts in single-star systems. The planets in the single-star sample had a significantly higher occurrence rate outside of 1au than inside 1au by nearly 4{sigma}, in line with expectations that giant planets are most common near the snow line. However, the planets in the wide binary systems did not follow this distribution, but rather had equivalent occurrence rates interior and exterior to 1au. This may point to binary-mediated planet migration acting on our sample, even in binaries wider than 100au.

Survey of Surveys. I. Radial velocities
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a comprehensive catalogue, the Survey of Surveys (SoS), built by homogeneously merging the radial velocity (RV) determinations of the largest ground-based spectroscopic surveys to date, such as APOGEE, GALAH, Gaia-ESO, RAVE, and LAMOST, using Gaia as reference. This pilot study serves to prove the concept and to test the methodology that we plan to apply in the future to the stellar parameters and abundance ratios as well. We have devised a multi-staged procedure that includes: i) the cross match between Gaia and the spectroscopic surveys using the official Gaia cross-match algorithm, ii) the normalization of uncertainties using repeated measurements or the three-cornered hat method, iii) the cross calibration of the RVs as a function of the main parameters they depend on (magnitude, effective temperature, surface gravity, metallicity, and signal-to-noise ratio) to remove trends and zero point offsets, and iv) the comparison with external high-resolution samples, such as the Gaia RV standards and the Geneva-Copenhagen survey, to validate the homogenization procedure and to calibrate the RV zero-point of the SoS catalogue. We provide the largest homogenized RV catalogue to date, containing almost 11 million stars, of which about half come exclusively from Gaia and half in combination with the ground-based surveys. We estimate the accuracy of the RV zero-point to be about 0.16-0.31km/s and the RV precision to be in the range 0.05-1.50km/s depending on the type of star and on its survey provenance. We validate the SoS RVs with open clusters from a high resolution homogeneous samples and provide the systemic velocity of 55 individual open clusters. Additionally, we provide median RVs for 532 clusters recently discovered by Gaia data.
