- Description:
- We use the AllWISE Data Release to continue our search for Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE)-detected motions. In this paper, we publish another 27846 motion objects, bringing the total number to 48000 when objects found during our original AllWISE motion survey are included. We use this list, along with the lists of confirmed WISE-based motion objects from the recent papers by Luhman (2014, J/ApJ/781/4) and by Schneider et al. (2016, J/ApJ/817/112), and candidate motion objects from the recent paper by Gagne et al. (2014, J/ApJ/783/121), to search for widely separated, common-proper-motion systems. We identify 1039 such candidate systems. All 48000 objects are further analyzed using color-color and color-mag plots to provide possible characterizations prior to spectroscopic follow-up. We present spectra of 172 of these, supplemented with new spectra of 23 comparison objects from the literature, and provide classifications and physical interpretations of interesting sources. Highlights include: (1) the identification of three G/K dwarfs that can be used as standard candles to study clumpiness and grain size in nearby molecular clouds because these objects are currently moving behind the clouds, (2) the confirmation/discovery of several M, L, and T dwarfs and one white dwarf whose spectrophotometric distance estimates place them 5-20pc from the Sun, (3) the suggestion that the Na I "D" line be used as a diagnostic tool for interpreting and classifying metal-poor late-M and L dwarfs, (4) the recognition of a triple system including a carbon dwarf and late-M subdwarf, for which model fits of the late-M subdwarf (giving [Fe/H]~-1.0) provide a measured metallicity for the carbon star, and (5) a possible 24pc distant K5 dwarf + peculiar red L5 system with an apparent physical separation of 0.1pc.

- Description:
- ****************************************************************** This version is a preliminary adaptation of the APM, covering the Northern sky at high galactic latitudes only. ****************************************************************** The catalogue APMCAT-POSS1-1.0 is derived from the first epoch (1949-1958) Palomar Observatory-National Geographic Sky Survey (POSS). The catalog is based on digitised scans with the laser based Cambridge Automated Plate Measurement(APM) machine of both the blue O plates and red E plates. The plates are scanned with a pixel sampling 8microns which corresponds 0.49 arcsecs at the nominal plate scale of 61arcsec/mm (16.4 micron/arcsec). Further details about the survey material can be found in Minkowski and Abell 1963 and Lund and Dixon 1973.

- Title:
- The Arecibo PPS Survey. I. Harvesting ALFALFA
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/157/81
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We report a multi-objective campaign of targeted 21 cm H I line observations of sources selected from the Arecibo Legacy Fast Arecibo L-band Feed Array (ALFALFA) survey and galaxies identified by their morphological and photometric properties in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The aims of this program have been (1) to confirm the reality of some ALFALFA sources whose enigmatic nature suggest additional multiwavelength observations; (2) to probe the low signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) regime, below the ALFALFA reliability limit; and (3) to explore the feasibility of using optical morphology, color, and surface brightness to identify gas-rich objects in the region of the Pisces-Perseus Supercluster (PPS) whose H I fluxes are below the ALFALFA sensitivity limit at that distance. As expected, the reliability of ALFALFA detections depends strongly on the S/N of the H I line signal and its coincidence with a probable stellar counterpart identified by its optical properties, suggestive of ongoing star formation. The identification of low-mass, star-forming populations enables targeted H I line observations to detect galaxies with H I line fluxes below the ALFALFA sensitivity limits in fixed local volumes (D<100 Mpc). The method explored here serves as the basis for extending the sample of gas-bearing objects as part of the ongoing Arecibo Pisces-Perseus Supercluster Survey (APPSS).

- Description:
- Ten years after the publication of the previous release, we present a new edition of the Asiago Supernova Catalogue updated to December 31, 1998 and containing data for 1447 supernovae and their parent galaxies. In addition to the list of the data for a large number of new SNe, we made an effort to search the literature for new information on past SNe as well. We also tried to update and homogenize the data for the parent galaxies. This catalogue supersedes the previous version <II/159>

- The Asteroseismic Target List (ATL) for TESS
- Short Name:
- J/ApJS/241/12
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present the target list of solar-type stars to be observed in short-cadence (2 minute) for asteroseismology by the NASA Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) during its 2 year nominal survey mission. The solar-like Asteroseismic Target List (ATL) is comprised of bright, cool main-sequence and subgiant stars and forms part of the larger target list of the TESS Asteroseismic Science Consortium. The ATL uses the Gaia Data Release 2 and the Extended Hipparcos Compilation (XHIP) to derive fundamental stellar properties, to calculate detection probabilities, and to produce a rank- ordered target list. We provide a detailed description of how the ATL was produced and calculate expected yields for solar-like oscillators based on the nominal photometric performance by TESS. We also provide a publicly available source code that can be used to reproduce the ATL, thereby enabling comparisons of asteroseismic results from TESS with predictions from synthetic stellar populations.

- The AstraLux Large M-dwarf Survey
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/754/44
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- These tables contain the results from a multiplicity survey of 701 M-type and 60 K-type stars (among which 182 new and 37 previously known companions were detected in 205 systems) using the Lucky Imaging cameras AstraLux Norte at the Calar Alto 2.2m and AstraLux Sur at the ESO NTT. Most of the targets have been observed during two or more epochs, and could be confirmed as physical companions through common proper motion, often with orbital motion being confirmed in addition. One table lists general properties of all the stars in the sample, another the observational parameters of each confirmed or suspected binary, a third lists the derived physical parameters of each confirmed or suspected binary, the fourth lists astrometric data points of all binary candidates for which multiple epochs have been collected (also including literature measurements for previously resolved binaries) and a final table lists observational properties of confirmed or suspected background stars.

- The BAaDE SiO maser survey at 86GHz with ALMA
- Short Name:
- J/ApJS/244/25
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We report on the first 1432 sources observed using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, from the Bulge Asymmetries and Dynamical Evolution survey, which aims to obtain tens of thousands of line-of-sight velocities from SiO masers in Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars in the Milky Way. A 71% detection rate of 86GHz SiO masers is obtained from the infrared color-selected sample and increases to 80% when considering the likely oxygen-rich stars using Midcourse Space Experiment colors isolated in a region where [D]-[E]<=1.38. Based on Galactic distributions, the presence of extended CS emission, and likely kinematic associations, the population of sources with [D]-[E]>1.38 probably consists of young stellar objects, or alternatively, of planetary nebulae. For the SiO detections, we examined whether individual SiO transitions provide comparable stellar line-of-sight velocities and found that any SiO transition is suitable for determining a stellar AGB line-of-sight velocity. Finally, we discuss the relative SiO detection rates and line strengths in the context of current pumping models.

- The band-merged unWISE Catalog
- Short Name:
- II/363
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present the unWISE Catalog, containing the positions and fluxes of roughly 2 billion objects observed by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) over the full sky. The unWISE Catalog has two advantages over the existing WISE catalog (AllWISE): first, it is based on significantly deeper imaging, and second, it features improved modeling of crowded regions. The deeper imaging used in the unWISE Catalog comes from the coaddition of all publicly available 3-5um WISE imaging, including that from the ongoing NEOWISE-reactivation mission, thereby increasing the total exposure time by a factor of 5 relative to AllWISE. At these depths, even at high Galactic latitudes, many sources are blended with their neighbors; accordingly, the unWISE analysis simultaneously fits thousands of sources to obtain accurate photometry. Our new catalog detects sources roughly 0.7mag fainter than the AllWISE catalog at 5{sigma}, and more accurately models millions of faint sources in the Galactic plane, enabling a wealth of Galactic and extragalactic science. In particular, relative to AllWISE, unWISE doubles the number of galaxies detected between redshifts 0 and 1 and triples the number between redshifts 1 and 2, cataloging more than half a billion galaxies over the whole sky.

- The BeppoSAX 2-10 keV Survey
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/362/799
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present the results of a 2-10keV BeppoSAX survey based on 140 high galactic latitude MECS fields, 12 of which are deep exposures of ``blank'' parts of the sky. The limiting sensitivity is 5x10^-14^erg/cm^2^/s where about 25% of the Cosmic X-ray Background (CXB) is resolved into discrete sources. The logN-logS function, built with a statistically complete sample of 177 sources, is steep and in good agreement with the counts derived from ASCA surveys.
