- Description:
- We present a deep I, Z photometric survey covering a total area of 1.12deg^2^ of the {sigma} Orionis cluster and reaching completeness magnitudes of I=22 and Z=21.5mag. From I, I-Z color-magnitude diagrams we have selected 153 candidates that fit the previously known sequence of the cluster. They have magnitudes in the range I=16-23mag, which corresponds to a mass interval from 0.1 down to 0.008M_{sun}_ at the most probable age of {sigma} Orionis (2-4Myr). Using J-band photometry, we find that 124 of the 151 candidates within the completeness of the optical survey (82%) follow the previously known infrared photometric sequence of the cluster and are probably members. We have studied the spatial distribution of the very low mass stars and brown dwarf population of the cluster and found that there are objects located at distances greater than 30 arcmin to the north and west of {sigma} Orionis that probably belong to different populations of the Orion's Belt. For the 102 bona fide {sigma} Orionis cluster member candidates, we find that the radial surface density can be represented by a decreasing exponential function ({sigma}={sigma}_0_e^-r/r_0_^) with a central density of {sigma}_0_=0.23+/-0.03 objects arcmin^-2^ and a characteristic radius of r_0_=9.5+/-0.7 arcmin. Using near-infrared JHK-band data from Two Micron All Sky Survey and UKIRT Deep Infrared Sky Survey and mid-infrared data from Infrared Array Camera/Spitzer, we find that about 5%-9% of the brown dwarf candidates in the {sigma} Orionis cluster have K-band excesses and 30%+/-7% of them show mid-infrared excesses at wavelengths longer than 5.8um. These are probably related to the presence of disks, most of which are "transition disks".

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Observations of the ELAIS-N1 field taken at 610MHz with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope are presented. Nineteen pointings were observed, covering a total area of 9 square degrees with a resolution of 6x5arcsec^2^, PA=45deg. Four of the pointings were deep observations with an rms of ~40uJy before primary beam correction, with the remaining fifteen pointings having an rms of ~70uJy. The techniques used for data reduction and production of a mosaicked image of the region are described, and the final mosaic, along with a catalogue of 2500 sources detected above 6{sigma}, are presented. This work complements the large amount of optical and infrared data already available on the region. For further details of the surveys and data analysis procedures please refer to the published paper.

- CDS
- Description:
- This stellar catalog contains 19,494 objects from the Deep Multicolor Survey (DMS) and results from follow-up spectroscopic observations of 234 objects in the catalog. The DMS is based on CCD imaging with the Mayall 4 m telescope in U, B, V, R', I75, and I86 and covers 0.83 deg^2 in six fields at high Galactic latitude. The survey reached 5 sigma limiting magnitudes of 22.1 in I86 to 23.8 in B. The catalog gives positions, magnitudes and error estimates, and classification codes in the six filter bands for all the objects. In addition, the survey is useful for the study of faint field galaxies and of faint stars at high Galactic latitude. Presented are tables that summarize the spectroscopic results for the 55 quasars, 44 compact narrow emission-line galaxies, and 135 stars in the DMS that we have confirmed to date. Also included are illustrations of all the spectra.

- Deep NIR survey of the Pipe Nebula. II.
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/725/2232
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a new set of high-resolution dust extinction maps of the nearby and essentially starless Pipe Nebula molecular cloud. The maps were constructed from a concerted deep near-infrared imaging survey with the ESO-VLT, ESO-NTT, CAHA 3.5m telescopes, and 2MASS data. The new maps have a resolution three times higher than the previous extinction map of this cloud by Lombardi et al. (2006A&A...454..781L) and are able to resolve structures down to 2600AU. We detect 244 significant extinction peaks across the cloud. These peaks have masses between 0.1 and 18.4M_{sun}_, diameters between 1.2 and 5.7x10^4^AU (0.06 and 0.28pc), and mean densities of about 10^4^cm^-3^, all in good agreement with previous results. From the analysis of the mean surface density of companions we find a well-defined scale near 1.4x10^4^AU below which we detect a significant decrease in structure of the cloud. This scale is smaller than the Jeans length calculated from the mean density of the peaks. The surface density of peaks is not uniform but instead it displays clustering. Extinction peaks in the Pipe Nebula appear to have a spatial distribution similar to the stars in Taurus, suggesting that the spatial distribution of stars evolves directly from the primordial spatial distribution of high-density material.

- Deep NIR survey toward Aquila. I. MHOs
- Short Name:
- J/ApJS/219/21
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have performed an unbiased, deep near-infrared survey toward the Aquila molecular cloud with a sky coverage of ~1deg^2^. We identified 45 molecular hydrogen emission-line objects (MHOs), of which only 11 were previously known. Using the Spitzer archival data, we also identified 802 young stellar objects (YSOs) in this region. Based on the morphology and the location of MHOs and YSO candidates, we associate 43 MHOs with 40 YSO candidates. The distribution of jet length shows an exponential decrease in the number of outflows with increasing length, and the molecular hydrogen outflows seem to be oriented randomly. Moreover, there is no obvious correlation between jet lengths, jet opening angles, or jet H_2_ 1-0 S(1) luminosities and the spectral indices of the possible driving sources in this region. We also suggest that molecular hydrogen outflows in the Aquila molecular cloud are rather weak sources of turbulence, unlikely to generate the observed velocity dispersion in the region of survey.

- Deep Objective-Prism Survey for LMC Members
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The catalog contains 1273 proven or probable Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) members, identified on plates taken with the Curtis-Schmidt telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile. The stars are generally brighter than photographic magnitude 14 and are identified on charts published by Hodge and Wright (1967) and reproduced in the source publication (1970CoTol..89....1S). Approximate spectral types were determined by examination of the 580 Angstroms/mm (at H{gamma}) objective-prism spectra; approximate 1975 positions were obtained by measuring relative to the 1975 coordinate grids on the Uppsala-Mount Stromlo Atlas of the LMC (Gascoigne and Westerlund 1961), and approximate photographic magnitudes were determined by averaging image density measures from the plates and image-diameter measures on the "B" charts of Hodge and Wright (1967SAOP.4699....1H). The catalog includes an identification number (Sk), HD(E) number, Cape Photographic Durchmusterung number, right ascension and declination (equinox B1975), spectral type, photographic magnitude, and alternate identifications. The machine version, updated in September 1986, includes corrections supplied by the author in 1985; thus, it differs somewhat from the published version. Accurate positions, and cross-identifications with the modern surveys, were determined by Brian Skiff in 2008, and make up the "sk_pos.dat" file. This work is based on a file prepared through great effort by Mati Morel in 1999. Brian Skiff examined every object on DSS cut-outs to make sure the star chosen matched the Sanduleak charts. The Goddard SkyView utility was used, looking at an 0.07{deg} (4'x4') field from the DSS1 (short-V plate), DSS2 far-red, and 2MASS J-band images. These three have the shallowest effective exposure (these are bright stars!), and usually the best image quality to check for companions etc as well as star colors. Precise coordinates were then obtained via VizieR mainly from UCAC2, but occasionally elsewhere as indicated in the column 's' for each star. The list was also matched against Tycho-2 and the GSC, and the Massey et al. photometric survey from 2002ApJS..141...81M (Cat. II/236). The file "sk_pos.dat" includes also Sanduleak's original approximate spectral types, and approximative V magnitudes that Mati Morel adopted from the work of the Marseille group; some missing HD(E) and CPD names were also added. It should be noticed also that the file has 1275 entries, 3 stars being resolved into resolved pairs. The notes includes Sanduleak's original notes, as well as remarks added by Brian Skiff in the course of his verifications.

- Deep XMM-Newton survey of M33
- Short Name:
- J/ApJS/218/9
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have obtained a deep 8 field XMM-Newton mosaic of M33 covering the galaxy out to the D_25_ isophote and beyond to a limiting 0.2-4.5keV unabsorbed flux of 5x10^-16^erg/cm2/s (L>4x10^34^erg/s at the distance of M33). These data allow complete coverage of the galaxy with high sensitivity to soft sources such as diffuse hot gas and supernova remnants (SNRs). Here, we describe the methods we used to identify and characterize 1296 point sources in the 8 fields. We compare our resulting source catalog to the literature, note variable sources, construct hardness ratios, classify soft sources, analyze the source density profile, and measure the X-ray luminosity function (XLF). As a result of the large effective area of XMM-Newton below 1keV, the survey contains many new soft X-ray sources. The radial source density profile and XLF for the sources suggest that only ~15% of the 391 bright sources with L>3.6x10^35^erg/s are likely to be associated with M33, and more than a third of these are known SNRs. The log(N)-log(S) distribution, when corrected for background contamination, is a relatively flat power law with a differential index of 1.5, which suggests that many of the other M33 sources may be high-mass X-ray binaries. Finally, we note the discovery of an interesting new transient X-ray source, which we are unable to classify.

- Deep X-Ray Radio Blazar Survey (DXRBS). I.
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/115/1253
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have undertaken a survey, the Deep X-Ray Radio Blazar Survey (DXRBS), of archived, pointed ROSAT Position Sensitive Proportional Counter data for blazars by correlating the ROSAT WGACAT database with several publicly available radio catalogs, restricting our candidate list to serendipitous flat radio spectrum sources ({alpha}_r_<=0.70, where S_{nu}_{prop}{nu}^-{alpha}_r_^). We discuss our survey methods, identification procedure, and first results. Our survey is found to be 95% efficient at finding flat-spectrum radio-loud quasars (FSRQs; 59 of our first 85 identifications) and BL Lacertae objects (22 of our first 85 identifications), a figure that is comparable to or greater than that achieved by other radio and X-ray survey techniques. The identifications presented here show that all previous samples of blazars (even when taken together) did not representatively survey the blazar population, missing critical regions of (LX, LR) parameter space within which large fractions of the blazar population lie. Particularly important is the identification of a large population of FSRQs (>=25% of DXRBS FSRQs) with ratios of X-ray to radio luminosity >=10^-6^({alpha}_rx_<=0.78). In addition, as a result of our greater sensitivity, the DXRBS has already more than doubled the number of FSRQs in complete samples with 5GHz (radio) luminosities between 10^31.5^ and 10^33.5^ergs/s/Hz, and fills in the region of parameter space between X-ray-selected and radio-selected samples of BL Lac objects. The DXRBS is the very first sample to contain statistically significant numbers of blazars at low luminosities, approaching what should be the lower end of the FSRQ luminosity function.

- Description:
- We have searched the archived, pointed ROSAT Position Sensitive Proportional Counter data for blazars by correlating the WGACAT X-ray data base with several publicly available radio catalogues, restricting our candidate list to serendipitous X-ray sources with a flat radio spectrum ({alpha}_r_<=0.70, where S_{nu}_~{nu}^-{alpha}^). his makes up the Deep X-ray Radio Blazar Survey (DXRBS). Here we present new identifications and spectra for 106 sources, including 86 radio-loud quasars, 11 BL Lacertae objects, and nine narrow-line radio galaxies. Together with our previously published objects and already-known sources, our sample now contains 298 identified objects: 234 radio-loud quasars [181 flat-spectrum quasars: FSRQ ({alpha}_r_<=0.50) and 53 steep-spectrum quasars: SSRQ], 36 BL Lacs and 28 narrow-line radio galaxies. Redshift information is available for 96 per cent of these. Thus our selection technique is ~90 per cent efficient at finding radio-loud quasars and BL Lacs. Reaching 5-GHz radio fluxes ~50mJy and 0.1-2.0keV X-ray fluxes a few W10-14erg/cm^2^/s, DXRBS is the faintest and largest flat-spectrum radio sample with nearly complete (~85 per cent) identification.

- DEIMOS 10K spectroscopic survey in COSMOS field
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/858/77
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a catalog of 10718 objects in the COSMOS field, observed through multi-slit spectroscopy with the Deep Imaging Multi-Object Spectrograph (DEIMOS) on the Keck II telescope in the wavelength range ~5500-9800{AA}. The catalog contains 6617 objects with high-quality spectra (two or more spectral features), and 1798 objects with a single spectroscopic feature confirmed by the photometric redshift. For 2024 typically faint objects, we could not obtain reliable redshifts. The objects have been selected from a variety of input catalogs based on multi-wavelength observations in the field, and thus have a diverse selection function, which enables the study of the diversity in the galaxy population. The magnitude distribution of our objects is peaked at I_AB_~23 and K_AB_~21, with a secondary peak at K_AB_~24. We sample a broad redshift distribution in the range 0<z<6, with one peak at z~1, and another one around z~4. We have identified 13 redshift spikes at z>0.65 with chance probabilities <4x10^-4^, some of which are clearly related to protocluster structures of sizes >10Mpc. An object-to-object comparison with a multitude of other spectroscopic samples in the same field shows that our DEIMOS sample is among the best in terms of fraction of spectroscopic failures and relative redshift accuracy. We have determined the fraction of spectroscopic blends to about 0.8% in our sample. This is likely a lower limit and at any rate well below the most pessimistic expectations. Interestingly, we find evidence for strong lensing of Ly{alpha} background emitters within the slits of 12 of our target galaxies, increasing their apparent density by about a factor of 4.
