- Description:
- We present the catalog of HI sources extracted from the ongoing Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA (ALFALFA) extragalactic HI line survey, found within the sky region bounded by 9:36<RA<11:36 and +08<DE<+12. The HI catalog presented here for this 118deg^2^ region is combined with the ones derived from surrounding regions also covered by the ALFALFA survey to examine the large-scale structure in the complex Leo region. Because of the combination of wide sky coverage and superior sensitivity, spatial and spectral resolution, the ALFALFA HI catalog of the Leo region improves significantly on the numbers of low HI mass sources as compared with those found in previous HI surveys.

- Description:
- We present a second catalog of HI sources detected in the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA Survey. We report 488 detections over 135deg^2^, within the region of the sky having 22<RA<03 and +26<DE<+28. We present here the detections that have either (a) S/N>6.5, where the reliability of the catalog is better than 95% or (b) 5.0<S/N<6.5 and a previously measured redshift that corroborates our detection. Of the 488 objects presented here, 49 are high-velocity clouds or clumps thereof with negative heliocentric recession velocities. These clouds are mostly very compact and isolated, while some of them are associated with large features such as Wright's Cloud or the northern extension of the Magellanic Stream. The remaining 439 candidate detections are identified as extragalactic objects and have all been matched with optical counterparts. Five of the six galaxies detected with M_HI_<10^7.5^ solMass are satellites of either the NGC672/IC1727 nearby galaxy pair or their neighboring dwarf irregular galaxy NGC784. The data of this catalog release include a slice through the Pisces-Perseus foreground void, a large nearby underdensity of galaxies. We report no detections within the void, where our catalog is complete for systems with HI masses of 10^8^M_{sun}_.

- Description:
- We present the third installment of HI sources extracted from the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA extragalactic survey. This data set continues the work of the Virgo ALFALFA catalog. The catalogs and spectra published here consist of data obtained during the 2005 and 2006 observing sessions of the survey. The catalog consists of 578 HI detections within the range 11h36m<RA(J2000)<13h52m and +08{deg}<DE(J2000)<+12{deg}, and cz_{sun}_<18000km/s. The catalog entries are matched with optical counterparts where possible through the examination of digitized optical images. The catalog detections can be classified into three categories: (a) detections of high reliability with a signal-to-noise ratio (S/N)>6.5; (b) high-velocity clouds in the Milky Way or its periphery; and (c) signals of lower S/N which coincide spatially with an optical object and known redshift. 75% of the sources are newly published HI detections. Of particular note is a complex of HI clouds projected between M87 and M49 that do not coincide with any optical counterparts. Candidate objects without optical counterparts are few. Position corrections for telescope pointing errors are applied to the data set by comparing the ALFALFA continuum centroid with those cataloged in the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS, Cat. VIII/65). The uncorrected positional accuracy averages 27"(21" median) for all sources with S/N>6.5 and is of order ~21"(16" median) for signals with S/N>12. Uncertainties in distances toward the Virgo cluster can affect the calculated HI mass distribution.

- A redshift catalog of the galaxy cluster A2029
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/871/129
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We explore the structure of galaxy cluster A2029 and its surroundings based on intensive spectroscopy along with X-ray and weak lensing observations. The redshift survey includes 4376 galaxies (1215 spectroscopic cluster members) within 40' of the cluster center; the redshifts are included here. Two subsystems, A2033 and a southern infalling group (SIG), appear in the infall region based on the spectroscopy, as well as on the weak lensing and X-ray maps. The complete redshift survey of A2029 also identifies at least 12 foreground and background systems (10 are extended X-ray sources) in the A2029 field; we include a census of their properties. The X-ray luminosities (L_X_)-velocity dispersions ({sigma}_cl_) scaling relations for A2029, A2033, SIG, and the foreground/background systems are consistent with the known cluster scaling relations. The combined spectroscopy, weak lensing, and X-ray observations provide a robust measure of the masses of A2029, A2033, and SIG. The total mass of the infalling groups (A2033 and SIG) is ~60% of the M200 of the primary cluster, A2029. Simple dynamical considerations suggest that A2029 will accrete these subsystems in the next few Gyr. In agreement with simulations and other clusters observed in a similar redshift range, the total mass in the A2029 infall region is comparable to the A2029 M200 and will mostly be accreted in the long-term future.

- Description:
- We present the Arizona CDFS Environment Survey (ACES), a recently completed spectroscopic redshift survey of the Chandra Deep Field-South (CDFS) conducted using the Inamori-Magellan Areal Camera and Spectrograph on the Magellan-Baade telescope. In total, the survey targeted 7277 unique sources down to a limiting magnitude of R_AB_=24.1, yielding 5080 secure redshifts across the ~30'x30' extended CDFS region. The ACES data set delivers a significant increase to both the spatial coverage and the sampling density of the spectroscopic observations in the field. Combined with previously published spectroscopic redshifts, ACES now creates a highly complete survey of the galaxy population at R<23, enabling the local galaxy density (or environment) on relatively small scales (~1Mpc) to be measured at z<1 in one of the most heavily studied and data-rich fields in the sky. Here, we describe the motivation, design and implementation of the survey and present a preliminary redshift and environment catalogue. In addition, we utilize the ACES spectroscopic redshift catalogue to assess the quality of photometric redshifts from both the COMBO-17 and Multiwavelength Survey by Yale-Chile imaging surveys of the CDFS.

- Description:
- An H-alpha survey, using a focal reducer and narrow-band interference filters, has resulted in the detection of nearly a thousand HII regions in M31. The catalog gives their positions, dimensions, and surface brightnesses. The surface brightnesses are on an absolute scale; the photographic measures were calibrated by using photoelectric measures from two different sources. The detection limit reached corresponds to an emission measure of 40cm^-6^pc at a temperature of 10000K.

- Description:
- The ATESP survey is a radio survey accomplished with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) at 1.4 GHz over a region of 26 square degrees centered at -40 and ranging in RA from 22h30m to 01h15m. The survey consists of 16 radio mosaics with 8x14 arcsec resolution and uniform sensitivity (1 sigma noise = 79 microJy). The final 6 sigmas catalogue contains 2960 sources down to a detection limit of 0.5 mJy. This region is superposed to the redshift survey ESO Slice Project (ESP) and is partly covered by the EIS survey (Patch A; see Cat. J/A+AS/130/323). Table 3 summarizes the main parameters for the final 16 mosaics: for each mosaic are listed the number of fields composing it (columns x rows), the tangent point (sky position used for geometry calculations) and the synthesized beam (size and position angle). The spatial resolution can vary from mosaic to mosaic depending on the particular array (6A, 6C or 6D) used in the observations. The mean value for the synthesized beam is 8"x14". The last three columns of Table 3 show the results of the noise analysis. For each mosaic we report the minimum (negative) flux (S_min) recorded on the image (typically |S_min| is of the order of 0.5 mJy, corresponding to the value at which we have stopped the cleaning) and the noise level. This has been evaluated either as the FWHM of the Gaussian fit to the flux distribution of the pixels (in the range +/-S_min), in order to check for correlated noise (sigma_fit), or as the standard deviation of the average flux in several source-free sub-regions of the mosaics, in order to verify uniformity (<sigma>).

- Description:
- The ATLAS^3D^ project is a multiwavelength survey combined with a theoretical modelling effort. The observations span from the radio to the millimetre and optical, and provide multicolour imaging, two-dimensional kinematics of the atomic (HI), molecular (CO) and ionized gas (H{beta}, [OIII] and [NI]), together with the kinematics and population of the stars (H{beta}, Fe5015 and Mgb), for a carefully selected, volume-limited (1.16x10^5^Mpc^3^) sample of 260 early-type (elliptical E and lenticular S0) galaxies (ETGs). The models include semi-analytic, N-body binary mergers and cosmological simulations of galaxy formation. Here we present the science goals for the project and introduce the galaxy sample and the selection criteria. The sample consists of nearby (D<42Mpc, |DE-29{deg}|<35{deg}, |b|>15{deg}) morphologically selected ETGs extracted from a parent sample of 871 galaxies (8 per cent E, 22 per cent S0 and 70 per cent spirals) brighter than M_K_<-21.5mag (stellar mass M_*_>~6x10^9^M_{sun}_).

- Description:
- We provide a census of the apparent stellar angular momentum within one effective radius of a volume-limited sample of 260 early-type galaxies (ETGs) in the nearby Universe, using the integral-field spectroscopy obtained in the course of the ATLAS3D project. We exploit the {lambda}_R_ parameter (previously used via a constant threshold value of 0.1) to characterize the existence of two families of ETGs: slow rotators which exhibit complex stellar velocity fields and often include stellar kinematically distinct cores, and fast rotators which have regular velocity fields. Our complete sample of 260 ETGs leads to a new criterion to disentangle fast and slow rotators which now includes a dependency on the apparent ellipticity {epsilon}.

- Description:
- We have carried out a survey for CO J=1-0 and J=2-1 emission in the 260 early-type galaxies of the volume-limited ATLAS3D sample, with the goal of connecting their star formation and assembly histories to their cold gas content. This is the largest volume-limited CO survey of its kind and is the first to include many Virgo cluster members. Sample members are dynamically hot galaxies with a median stellar mass ~3x10^10^M_{sun}_; they are selected by their morphology rather than colour, and the bulk of them lie on the red sequence. The overall CO detection rate is 56/259=0.22+/-0.03, with no dependence on the K luminosity and only a modest dependence on the dynamical mass. There are a dozen CO detections among the Virgo cluster members; statistical analysis of their H_2_ mass distributions and their dynamical status within the cluster shows that the cluster's influence on their molecular masses is subtle at best, even though (unlike spirals) they seem to be virialized within the cluster. We suggest that the cluster members have retained their molecular gas through several Gyr residences in the cluster.
