- Description:
- Warm Jupiters-defined here as planets larger than 6 Earth radii with orbital periods of 8-200 days-are a key missing piece in our understanding of how planetary systems form and evolve. It is currently debated whether Warm Jupiters form in situ, undergo disk or high-eccentricity tidal migration, or have a mixture of origin channels. These different classes of origin channels lead to different expectations for Warm Jupiters' properties, which are currently difficult to evaluate due to the small sample size. We take advantage of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) survey and systematically search for Warm Jupiter candidates around main-sequence host stars brighter than the TESS-band magnitude of 12 in the full-frame images in Year 1 of the TESS Prime Mission data. We introduce a catalog of 55 Warm Jupiter candidates, including 19 candidates that were not originally released as TESS objects of interest by the TESS team. We fit their TESS light curves, characterize their eccentricities and transit-timing variations, and prioritize a list for ground-based follow-up and TESS Extended Mission observations. Using hierarchical Bayesian modeling, we find the preliminary eccentricity distributions of our Warm-Jupiter-candidate catalog using a beta distribution, a Rayleigh distribution, and a two-component Gaussian distribution as the functional forms of the eccentricity distribution. Additional follow-up observations will be required to clean the sample of false positives for a full statistical study, derive the orbital solutions to break the eccentricity degeneracy, and provide mass measurements.

- Description:
- Results on the properties of warm molecular hydrogen in 57 normal galaxies are derived from measurements of H_2_ rotational transitions, obtained as part of SINGS. This study extends previous extragalactic surveys of emission lines of H_2_ to fainter and more common systems (LFIR = 10^7^-6x10^10^L_{sun}_). The 17um S(1) transition is securely detected in the nuclear regions of 86% of galaxies with stellar masses above 10^9.5^M_{sun}_.

- Description:
- We present the galaxy cluster catalog from the second, larger phase of the Wide Angle ROSAT Pointed Survey (WARPS), an X-ray selected survey for high-redshift galaxy clusters. WARPS is among the largest deep X-ray cluster surveys and is being used to study the properties and evolution of galaxy clusters. The WARPS-II sample contains 125 clusters serendipitously detected in a survey of 301 ROSAT PSPC pointed observations and covers a sky area of 56.7deg^2^. Of these 125 clusters, 53 have not been previously reported in the literature. We have nearly complete spectroscopic follow-up of the clusters, which range in redshift from z=0.029 to z=0.92 with a median redshift of z=0.29 and find 59 clusters with z>=0.3 (29 not previously reported in the literature) and 11 clusters with z>=0.6 (6 not previously reported). We also define a statistically complete subsample of 102 clusters above a uniform flux limit of 6.5x10^-14^ergs/cm^2^/s (0.5-2.0keV). Here we provide the cluster catalog and finder charts consisting of X-ray overlays on optical CCD images. We also compare our redshifts, fluxes, and detection methods to other similar published cluster surveys and find no serious issues with our measurements or completeness.

- Description:
- We present in catalog form the optical identifications for objects from the first phase of the Wide Angle ROSAT Pointed Survey (WARPS). WARPS is a serendipitous survey of relatively deep, pointed ROSAT observations for clusters of galaxies. The X-ray source detection algorithm used by WARPS is Voronoi Tessellation and Percolation (VTP), a technique which is equally sensitive to point sources and extended sources of low surface brightness. WARPS-I is based on the central regions of 86 ROSAT PSPC fields, covering an area of 16.2 square degrees. We describe here the X-ray source screening and optical identification process for WARPS-I, which yielded 34 clusters at 0.06<z<0.75. Twenty-two of these clusters form a complete, statistically well-defined sample drawn from 75 of these 86 fields, covering an area of 14.1 square degrees, with a flux limit of F(0.5x2.0keV)=6.5x10^-14^erg/cm^2^/s. This sample can be used to study the properties and evolution of the gas, galaxy and dark matter content of clusters and to constrain cosmological parameters. We compare in detail the identification process and findings of WARPS to those from other recently published X-ray surveys for clusters, including RDCS, SHARC-Bright, SHARC-south, and the CfA 160deg^2^ survey.

- Water maser and NH_3_ survey of GLIMPSE EGOs
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/764/61
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present the results of a Nobeyama 45m H_2_O maser and NH_3_ survey of all 94 northern GLIMPSE extended green objects (EGOs), a sample of massive young stellar objects (MYSOs) identified based on their extended 4.5{mu}m emission. We observed the NH_3_(1,1), (2,2), and (3,3) inversion lines, and detected emission toward 97%, 63%, and 46% of our sample, respectively (median rms~50mK). The H_2_O maser detection rate is 68% (median rms~0.11Jy). The derived H_2_O maser and clump-scale gas properties are consistent with the identification of EGOs as young MYSOs. To explore the degree of variation among EGOs, we analyze subsamples defined based on mid-infrared (MIR) properties or maser associations. H_2_O masers and warm dense gas, as indicated by emission in the higher-excitation NH_3_ transitions, are most frequently detected toward EGOs also associated with both Class I and II CH_3_OH masers. Ninety-five percent (81%) of such EGOs are detected in H_2_O (NH_3_(3,3)), compared to only 33% (7%) of EGOs without either CH_3_OH maser type. As populations, EGOs associated with Class I and/or II CH_3_OH masers have significantly higher NH_3_ line widths, column densities, and kinetic temperatures than EGOs undetected in CH_3_OH maser surveys. However, we find no evidence for statistically significant differences in H_2_O maser properties (such as maser luminosity) among any EGO subsamples. Combining our data with the 1.1mm continuum Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey, we find no correlation between isotropic H_2_O maser luminosity and clump number density. H_2_O maser luminosity is weakly correlated with clump (gas) temperature and clump mass.

- Water maser in galactic IRAS sources

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present H_2_O maser data from a survey toward IRAS sources in the Galaxy with the Nobeyama 45m telescope. This survey had a 1{sigma} noise level as small as 0.24Jy, resulting in one of the most sensitive water-maser surveys. The maximum distance of the masers to be detected by our survey is estimated to be 3kpc for sources with F_nu,1kpc_<10Jy and 10kpc for those with 10Jy<=F_nu,1kpc_<100Jy, where F_nu,1kpc_ is the maser flux density converted at a distance of 1kpc. For strong masers with F_nu,1kpc_>=100Jy, our survey could detect all sources in the Galaxy. We carried out a total of 2229 observations toward 1563 sources and detected water-maser emission toward 222 sources. Our survey newly found masers from 75 of the 222 sources.

- Description:
- We report on the most sensitive water maser survey toward Bok globules to date, performed using NASA's 70m antenna at Robledo de Chavela (Spain). We observed 207 positions within the Clemens and Barvainis catalog with a higher probability of harboring a young star, using as selection criteria the presence of radio continuum emission (from submillimeter to centimeter wavelengths), geometric centers of molecular outflows, peaks in maps of high-density gas tracers (NH3 or CS), and IRAS point sources. We have obtained seven maser detections, six of which (in CB 34, CB 54, CB 65, CB 101, CB 199, and CB 232) are reported for the first time here. Most of the water masers we detected are likely to be associated with young stellar objects (YSOs), except for CB 101 (probably an evolved object) and CB 65 (uncertain nature). The water maser in CB 199 shows a relatively high shift (30km/s) of its velocity centroid with respect to the cloud velocity, which is unusual for low-mass YSOs. We speculate that high-velocity masers in this kind of object could be related to episodes of energetic mass loss in close binaries. Alternatively, the maser in CB 199 could be pumped by a protoplanetary or a young planetary nebula. CB 232 is the smallest Bok globule (0.6pc) known to be associated with water maser emission, although it would be superseded by the cases of CB 65 (0.3pc) and CB 199 (0.5pc) if their association with YSOs is confirmed. All our selection criteria have statistically compatible detection rates, except for IRAS sources, which tend to be somewhat worse predictors for the presence of maser emission.

- WD luminosity functions from the PS1 3pi Survey
- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- A large sample of white dwarfs is selected by both proper motion and colours from the Pan-STARRS 1 3{pi} Steradian Survey Processing Version 2 to construct the white dwarf luminosity functions of the discs and halo in the solar neighbourhood. Four-parameter astrometric solutions were recomputed from the epoch data. The generalized maximum volume method is then used to calculate the density of the populations. After removal of crowded areas near the Galactic plane and centre, the final sky area used by this work is 7.833sr, which is 83 per cent of the 3{pi} sky and 62 per cent of the whole sky. By dividing the sky using Voronoi tessellation, photometric and astrometric uncertainties are recomputed at each step of the integration to improve the accuracy of the maximum volume. Interstellar reddening is considered throughout the work. We find a disc-to-halo white dwarf ratio of about 100.

- Description:
- A radio survey has been made of an area centered at 01h 03min +29{deg}, using the Westerbork telescope at 1415MHz. The completeness limit of the survey is 7mJy. Additional observations have been made at 610MHz. The Lick 120" telescope has been used to obtain deep (O98-O2 emulsion) plates to serve as an optical counterpart. A catalogue is presented of 58 sources found in the survey. 53 of these comprise a complete sample. 31 sources of the complete sample lie in areas of which Lick plates were taken. Of the sources in Lick plates areas, 11 could be identified with galaxies and 3 with possible QSO's, yielding an identification percentage of 46. For the other 22 sources an identification programme was carried out using Palomar Sky Survey prints and other large 48" Schmidt plates: three of these sources could be identified with galaxies and two with possible QSO's. The survey was also used to derive source counts and a spectral index distribution. The source counts agree well with those derived for an earlier survey. The spectral index distribution has a mean of 0.52 and a width of 0.39. the explanation for the flatter spectra is not clear but might possibly lie in another source population that begins to dominate the results at low flux densities.
