They are intended to assist both the CCD photometric monitoring of current variability and exploitation of old photographic plates from historical archives.
1495. SZ Her BVRI light curves

- Title:
- SZ Her BVRI light curves
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/143/34
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Multiband CCD photometric observations of SZ Her were obtained between 2008 February and May. The light curve was completely covered and indicated a significant temperature difference between both components. The light-curve synthesis presented in this paper indicates that the eclipsing binary is a classical Algol-type system with parameters of q=0.472, i=87.57{deg}, and {Delta}(T_1_-T_2_)=2381K; the primary component fills approximately 77% of its limiting lobe and is slightly larger than the lobe-filling secondary component. More than 1100 times of minimum light spanning more than a century were used to study an orbital behavior of the binary system. It was found that the orbital period of SZ Her varied due to a combination of two periodic variations with cycle lengths of P_3_=85.8yr and P_4_=42.5yr and semi-amplitudes of K_3_=0.013days and K_4_=0.007days, respectively. The most reasonable explanation for these variations is a pair of light-time effects driven by the possible existence of two M-type companions with minimum masses of M_3_=0.22M_{sun}_ and M_4_=0.19M_{sun}_ that are located close to the 2:1 mean motion resonance. If two additional bodies exist, then the overall dynamics of the multiple system may provide a significant clue to the formation and evolution of the eclipsing pair.

- TAROT suspected variable star catalog
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/133/1470
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- TAROT (Telescope a Action Rapide pour les Objets Transitoires) is a robotic observatory designed to observe very early optical transients of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). As GRBs do not often occur, we use TAROT for various other celestial targets spread over the sky. For every field observed by TAROT, we computed the magnitudes of every star. From this work, we found 1175 new variable stars brighter than 17mag. We selected the best variable star candidates and compiled them in the TSVSC1 (TAROT Suspected Variable Star Catalog, ver. 1), which also contains Fourier-series coefficients that fit the light curves.

- T1C photometry of NGC7507
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/555/A56
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- There is strong evidence that globular cluster systems (GCSs) of massive galaxies are largely assembled by infall/accretion processes. Therefore, we expect the GCSs of isolated elliptical galaxies to be poor. Although not completely isolated, NGC 7507 is a massive field elliptical galaxy with an apparently very low dark matter content. We determine the richness, the colour distribution, and the structural properties of the GCS of NGC 7507. We performed wide-field Washington photometry with data obtained with the MOSAIC II camera at the 4m-Blanco telescope (CTIO, Chile).

- Teff and metallicities for Tycho-2 stars
- Short Name:
- V/136
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have created specialized target lists for radial velocity surveys that are biased toward stars that (1) possess planets and (2) are easiest to observe with current detection techniques. We use a procedure that uniformly estimates fundamental stellar properties of Tycho 2 stars, with errors, using spline functions of broadband photometry and proper motion found in Hipparcos/Tycho 2 and 2MASS. We provide estimates of effective temperature and distance for 2.4 million Tycho 2 stars that lack trigonometric distances. For stars that appear to be FGK dwarfs, we also derive [Fe/H] and identify unresolved binary systems with mass ratios 1.25<M1/M2<3.0. For FGK dwarfs with photometric error {sigma}_V_<0.05, or V<9, our temperature model gives a 1{sigma} error of {sigma}_T_=+58.7/-65.9K and our metallicity model gives a 1{sigma} error of {sigma}_[Fe/H]_=+0.13/-0.14dex. The binarity model can be used to remove 70% of doubles with 1.25<M1/M2<3.0 from a magnitude-limited sample of dwarfs at a cost of cutting 20% of the sample. Our estimates of distance and spectral type enable us to isolate 354,822 Tycho 2 dwarfs, 321,996 absent from Hipparcos, with giant contamination of 2.6% and 7.2%, respectively. Roughly 100,000 of these stars, not in Hipparcos, have sufficiently low photometric errors to retain 0.13-0.3dex [Fe/H] accuracy and 80-100K temperature accuracy (1{sigma}). Our metallicity estimates have been used to identify targets for N2K, a large-scale radial velocity search for hot jupiters, which has verified the errors presented here. The catalogs that we publish can be used to further large-scale studies of Galactic structure and chemical evolution and to provide potential reference stars for narrow-angle astrometry programs such as the Space Interferometry Mission and large-aperture optical interferometry.

- 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 B[e] phenomenon. VII. AS 386 follow-up
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/856/158
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We report the results of spectroscopic and photometric observations of the emission-line object AS 386. For the first time we found that it exhibits the B[e] phenomenon and fits the definition of an FS CMa type object. The optical spectrum shows the presence of a B-type star with the following properties: Teff=11000+/-500K, log L/L_{sun}_=3.7+/-0.3, a mass of 7+/-1M_{sun}_, and a distance D=2.4+/-0.3kpc from the Sun. We detected regular radial velocity variations of both absorption and emission lines with the following orbital parameters: Porb=131.27+/-0.09 days, semiamplitude K1=51.7+/-3.0km/s, systemic radial velocity {gamma}=-31.8+/-2.6km/s, and a mass function of f(m)=1.9+/-0.3M_{sun}_. AS 386 exhibits irregular variations of the optical brightness (V=10.92+/-0.05mag), while the near-IR brightness varies up to ~0.3mag following the spectroscopic period. We explain this behavior by a variable illumination of the dusty disk inner rim by the B-type component. Doppler tomography based on the orbital variations of emission-line profiles shows that the material is distributed near the B-type component and in a circumbinary disk. We conclude that the system has undergone a strong mass transfer that created the circumstellar material and increased the B-type component mass. The absence of any traces of a secondary component, whose mass should be >=7M_{sun}_, suggests that it is most likely a black hole.
