- Description:
- The results of Cyg X-1 = HDE 226868/V1357 Cyg optical spectral monitoring in 2002-2004 are discussed. Spectral observations were carried out on Peak Terskol Observatory (Kabardino-Balkaria, Russia, resolution R=45000 and 13000) and Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory (BOAO, Korea, R=30000, 44000). Each spectrum covers the main part of optical spectral range. During 33 observational nights 75 echelle spectra were obtained in the times of the "soft" and "hard" states of Cyg X-1. The X-ray influence on spectral line profiles was studied. The RXTE/ASM data were used for this purpose. The X-ray flare resulted in strong variations of Halpha and HeII4686{AA} emission component profiles during night. This behaviour we connect with variations of ionization structure of matter in the system. Line profile variations with the orbital phase were observed. The spectral atlas for Cyg X-1 was constructed. The contented line identification was done. There were revealed 172 lines and blends which belong to 12 chemical elements: H, He, C, N, O, Ne, Mg, Al, Si, S, Fe, Zn. The HDE 226868 spectral classification as ON star was confirmed.

- Description:
- The photoelectric UBV observations of the peculiar symbiotic star V1329 Cyg performed at the Crimean Station of the SAI-MSU during 245 nights over the period 2003-2014 are presented. The star's light curves since 1973 from the Crimean observations are shown. The brightness decline after its outburst over the last 40 years was 0.8m-1.0m. The phase color curves at phases 0.2 and 0.8 have maxima. Their qualitative interpretation in terms of the model of interacting winds in symbiotic binary star systems is proposed. The orbital period of the binary system has been redetermined. The spectroscopic observations at the 125-cm telescope of the Crimean Station from 1994 to 2014 have confirmed the change in the system's emission spectrum with orbital phase.

- Description:
- We present an investigation of the optical spectra of 264 low-redshift (z<0.2) Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered by the Palomar Transient Factory, an untargeted transient survey. We focus on velocity and pseudo-equivalent width measurements of the SiII 4130, 5972, and 6355{AA} lines, as well those of the CaII near-infrared (NIR) triplet, up to +5days relative to the SN B-band maximum light. We find that a high-velocity component of the CaII NIR triplet is needed to explain the spectrum in ~95% of SNe Ia observed before -5days, decreasing to ~80% at maximum. The average velocity of the CaII high-velocity component is ~8500km/s higher than the photospheric component. We confirm previous results that SNe Ia around maximum light with a larger contribution from the high-velocity component relative to the photospheric component in their CaII NIR feature have, on average, broader light curves and lower CaII NIR photospheric velocities. We find that these relations are driven by both a stronger high-velocity component and a weaker contribution from the photospheric CaII NIR component in broader light curve SNe Ia. We identify the presence of CII in very-early-time SN Ia spectra (before -10days), finding that >40% of SNe Ia observed at these phases show signs of unburnt material in their spectra, and that CII features are more likely to be found in SNe Ia having narrower light curves.

- Description:
- We present the discovery of Kepler-88d (P_d_=1403{+/-}14days, Msin_i_d__=965{+/-}44M_{Earth}_=3.04{+/-}0.13M_J_, e_d_=0.41{+/-}0.03) based on six years of radial velocity (RV) follow-up from the W.M.Keck Observatory High Resolution Echelle Spectrometer spectrograph. Kepler-88 has two previously identified planets. Kepler-88b (KOI-142.01) transits in the NASA Kepler photometry and has very large transit timing variations (TTVs). Nesvorny+, performed a dynamical analysis of the TTVs to uniquely identify the orbital period and mass of the perturbing planet (Kepler-88c), which was later was confirmed with RVs from the Observatoire de Haute-Provence (OHP). To fully explore the architecture of this system, we performed photodynamical modeling on the Kepler photometry combined with the RVs from Keck and OHP and stellar parameters from spectroscopy and Gaia. Planet d is not detectable in the photometry, and long-baseline RVs are needed to ascertain its presence. A photodynamical model simultaneously optimized to fit the RVs and Kepler photometry yields the most precise planet masses and orbital properties yet for b and c: P_b_=10.91647{+/-}0.00014days, M_b_=9.5{+/-}1.2M_{Earth}_, P_c_=22.2649{+/-}0.0007days, and M_c=214.0{+/-}5.3M_{Earth}_. The photodynamical solution also finds that planets b and c have low eccentricites and low mutual inclination, are apsidally anti-aligned, and have conjunctions on the same hemisphere of the star. Continued RV follow-up of systems with small planets will improve our understanding of the link between inner planetary system architectures and giant planets.

- Description:
- We study the dynamical status of the galaxy system ZwCl 2341.1+0000, a filamentary multi-Mpc galaxy structure associated with a complex diffuse radio emission. Our analysis is mainly based on new spectroscopic data for 128 galaxies acquired at the Italian Telescopio Nazionale Galileo. We also use optical data available in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and X-ray data from the Chandra archive. We select 101 cluster member galaxies and compute the cluster redshift <z>~0.2693 and the global line-of-sight velocity dispersion {sigma}_V_~1000km/s. Our optical analysis agrees with the presence of at least three, likely four or more, optical subclusters causing the south-south-east-north-north-west (SSE-NNW) elongation of the galaxy distribution and a significant velocity gradient in the south-north direction. In particular, we detect an important low-velocity subclump in the southern region, roughly coincident with the brightest peak of the diffuse radio emission but with a clear offset between the optical and radio peaks. We also detect one (or two) optical subcluster(s) at north, in correspondence with the second brightest radio emission, and another one in the central cluster region, where a third diffuse radio source has been recently detected. A more refined analysis involving the study of the 2D galaxy distribution suggests an even more complex structure. Depending on the adopted model, we obtain a mass estimate M_sys_~1-3x10^15^h_70_^-1^M_{sun} for the whole system. As for the X-ray analysis, we confirm the SSE-NNW elongation of the intracluster medium and detect four significant peaks. The X-ray emission is strongly asymmetric and offsetted with respect to the galaxy distribution, thus suggesting a merger caught in the phase of post-core-core passage. Our findings support two possible hypotheses for the nature of the diffuse radio emission of ZwCl 2341.1+0000: a two relics + halo scenario or diffuse emission associated with the infall and merging of several galaxy groups during the first phase of the cluster formation.

- Description:
- We have obtained radial velocity measurements for 51 new globular clusters around the Sombrero galaxy. These measurements were obtained using spectroscopic observations from the AAOmega spectrograph on the Anglo-Australian Telescope and the Hydra spectrograph at WIYN. Combining our own past measurements and velocity measurements obtained from the literature, we have constructed a large database of radial velocities that contains a total of 360 confirmed globular clusters. Previous studies' analyses of the kinematics and mass profile of the Sombrero globular cluster system have been constrained to the inner ~9' (~24kpc or ~5R_e_), but our new measurements have increased the radial coverage of the data, allowing us to determine the kinematic properties of M104 out to ~15' (~41kpc or ~9R_e_). We use our set of radial velocities to study the GC system kinematics and to determine the mass profile and V-band mass-to-light profile of the galaxy. We find that M/L_V_ increases from 4.5 at the center to a value of 20.9 at 41kpc (~9R_e_ or 15'), which implies that the dark matter halo extends to the edge of our available data set. We compare our mass profile at 20kpc (~4R_e_or ~7.4') to the mass computed from X-ray data and find good agreement. We also use our data to look for rotation in the globular cluster system as a whole, as well as in the red and blue subpopulations. We find no evidence for significant rotation in any of these samples.

- Description:
- We have conducted an observing campaign with the FORS instruments at the ESO-Very Large Telescope to explore the kinematical properties of spiral galaxies in distant galaxy clusters. Our main goal is to analyse transformation - and interaction processes of disk galaxies within the special environment of clusters as compared to the hierarchical evolution of galaxies in the field. Spatially resolved multi object spectra have been obtained for seven galaxy clusters at 0.3<z<0.6 to measure rotation velocities of cluster members. For three of the clusters, Cl 0303+17, Cl 0413-65, and MS 1008-12, for which we presented results including a Tully-Fisher-diagram in Ziegler et al. (2003ApJ...598L..87Z), we describe here in detail the sample selection, observations, data reduction, and data analysis. Each of them was observed with two setups of the standard MOS-unit of FORS.

- Velocities of WOCS 24009 and WOCS 40007 in NGC 6819

- Description:
- As part of our study of the old (~2.5Gyr) open cluster NGC 6819 in the Kepler field, we present photometric (Kepler and ground-based BVR_C_I_C_) and spectroscopic observations of the detached eclipsing binary WOCS 24009 (Auner 665; KIC5023948) with a short orbital period of 3.6 days. WOCS 24009 is a triple-lined system, and we verify that the brightest star is physically orbiting the eclipsing binary using radial velocities and eclipse timing variations. The eclipsing binary components have masses M_B_=1.090+/-0.010M_{sun}_ and M_C_=1.075+/-0.013M_{sun}_, and radii R_B_=1.099+/-0.006+/-0.005R_{sun}_and R_C_=1.069+/-0.006+/-0.013R_{sun}_. The bright non-eclipsing star resides at the cluster turnoff, and ultimately its mass will directly constrain the turnoff mass: our preliminary determination is M_A_=1.251+/-0.057M_{sun}_. A careful examination of the light curves indicates that the fainter star in the eclipsing binary undergoes a very brief period of total eclipse, which enables us to precisely decompose the light of the three stars and place them in the color-magnitude diagram (CMD). We also present improved analysis of two previously discussed detached eclipsing stars in NGC6819 (WOCS40007 and WOCS23009) en route to a combined determination of the cluster's distance modulus (m-M)_V_=12.38+/-0.04. Because this paper significantly increases the number of measured stars in the cluster, we can better constrain the age of the CMD to be 2.21+/-0.10+/-0.20Gyr. Additionally, using all measured eclipsing binary star masses and radii, we constrain the age to 2.38+/-0.05+/-0.22Gyr. The quoted uncertainties are estimates of measurement and systematic uncertainties (due to model physics differences and metal content), respectively.

- Description:
- We observed the tau Boo system with the HARPS-N spectrograph in order to test a new observational strategy aimed to jointly study asteroseismology, the planetary orbit and star-planet magnetic interaction. We collected high-cadence observations on 11 nearly consecutive nights, and for each night averaged the raw FITS files using dedicated software in order to obtain high S/N spectra to study the variation of the CaII H&K lines and radial velocity values free from stellar oscillations without losing this latter information. Specific software was written to build a new custom mask used to refine the RV determination with the HARPS-N pipeline and to perform the spectroscopic analysis. We updated the planetary ephemeris and proved the acceleration due to the stellar binary companion. The study of stellar activity variation suggests the presence of an high-latitude plage during the time span of our observations. The correlation between the chromospheric activity and the planetary orbital phase remains unclear. Solar-like oscillations are detected in the radial velocity time series: we estimate asteroseismic quantities finding good agreement with theoretical predictions. With the stellar model built we find for tau Boo an age of 0.9+/-0.5Gyr, and could further constrain the value of the stellar mass to 1.38+/-0.05M_{sun}_.

- Description:
- We report on ground-based optical observations of 10 cataclysmic binaries that were discovered through their X-ray emission. Time-resolved radial velocity spectroscopy yields unambiguous orbital periods for eight objects and ambiguous results for the remaining two. The orbital periods range from 87 minutes to 9.38 hr. We also obtained time-series optical photometry for six targets, four of which have coherent pulsations. These periods are 1218s for 1RXSJ045707.4+452751, 628s for AXJ1740.2-2903, 477s for AXJ1853.3-0128, and 935s for IGRJ19267+1325. A total of seven of the sources have coherent oscillations in X-rays or optical, indicating that they are intermediate polars (DQ Herculis stars). Time-resolved spectroscopy of one object, SwiftJ2218.4+1925, shows that it is an AM Herculis star, or polar, and IGRJ19552+0044 may also be in that class. For another object, SwiftJ0746.2-1611, we find an orbital period of 9.384 hr and detect the spectrum of the secondary star. The secondary's spectral contribution implies a distance of 900 (+190, -150)pc, where the error bars are estimated using a Monte Carlo technique to account for correlated uncertainties.
