Title:
Flux- and volume-limited groups for SDSS galaxies
Short Name:
J/A+A/566/A1
Date:

Description:
We provide flux-limited and volume-limited galaxy group and cluster catalogues, based on the spectroscopic sample of the SDSS data release 10 galaxies. We used a modified friends-of-friends (FoF) method with a variable linking length in the transverse and radial directions to identify as many realistic groups as possible. The flux-limited catalogue incorporates galaxies down to m_r_=17.77mag. It includes 588193 galaxies and 82458 groups. The volume-limited catalogues are complete for absolute magnitudes down to M_r_= -18.0, -18.5, -19.0, -19.5, -20.0, -20.5, and -21.0; the completeness is achieved within different spatial volumes, respectively. Our analysis shows that flux-limited and volume-limited group samples are well compatible to each other, especially for the larger groups/clusters. Dynamical mass estimates, based on radial velocity dispersions and group extent in the sky, are added to the extracted groups. The catalogues can also be accessed via http://cosmodb.to.ee.
302. FOCAT-S Catalogue

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This is a new reduction of FOCAT-S photographic catalogue of southern stars. This reduction has to replace the preceding one. The differences from previous version are as follows: 1. The new version was sorted according right ascension of stars inside 10-degree declination zone; 2. New proper motions were calculated for all almost stars. New Astrographic Catalogue plate reduction was developed for this aim. The average rms of new FOCAT-S proper motions is 0.002 - 0.003 "/year; 3. The number of the Astrographic Catalogue star positions used for the proper motion calculation is added; 4. The magnitude (mag) and spectral type (Sp) columns were revised significantly: some errors were corrected; stars identified in C.S.I. catalogue have got Mag, Sp from this catalogue as it was in previous version. Other stars have got Mag, Sp from PPM-S catalogue. 5. The list of Durchmusterung star numbers was changed. Now it contains the Cape Photographic Durchmusterung (CPD) numbers for stars in [-90, -23] declination zones; Cordoba Durchmusterung (CoD) star numbers are used only if it was impossible to identify star in BD or CPD. Format of this column was changed also. 6. PPM catalogue star numbers were added.

Description:
The catalog of positions and B-magnitudes of stars and galaxies of the southern sky (from -20{deg} to +2{deg}) was created as a part of the FON (Russian abbreviation Photographic Sky Survey) project at the Ulugh Beg Astronomical Institute (UBAI) of the Uzbekistan Academy of Sciences. The data accumulated in the Photographic Archive of the UBAI were used. The total number of processed plates is 1963. Astronegatives were digitized with Epson Expression 10000XL scanners in the 1200 dpi scanning mode. The majority of plates have a size of 30x30cm. The catalog contains the data on 13 413 268 stars and galaxies with B<=17.5m at the epoch of 1984.97. The coordinates of stars and galaxies were obtained in the Tycho-2 reference system, and B-magnitudes were determined in the system of photoelectric standards. The mean internal errors of the catalog are {sigma}_RA,DE_=0.23" and {sigma}_B_=0.15mag for all objects or {sigma}_RA,DE_=0.085" and {sigma}_B_=0.054mag for the objects in the B=7-14mag range. The convergence between the catalog and Tycho-2 is characterized by the following values: 0.042" and 0.16m. The mean-square difference in coordinates from the catalog and from UCAC-4 is {sigma}_RA,DE_=0.26" (9 892 697 objects, or 73.75% of stars and galaxies, were identified).

Title:
Fourth Fundamental Cat and Suppl (FK4, FK4S)
Short Name:
I/143
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The FK4 was an attempt to establish a fundamental system of stellar positions and proper motions for the 1950 equinox using as much position data as were available. Most of the stars are brighter than 7.0 mag. To increase the star density in some regions of the sky, positions and proper motions for additional stars were established on the same system. This catalog contains seven data files, six for different equinoxes (1950, 1955, 1960, 1965, 1970, and 1975) and one for the supplemental stars. The 1950 and 1975 files contain the complete FK4 catalog (1535 stars); the others contain only 52 polar stars. In addition to a header record, the primary catalog contains for each star an identification number; the magnitude (maximum for a variable star); a variability flag, the minimum magnitude for a variable or the magnitude of the secondary for a double star; the HD spectral type and the type for the companion or a second type for a variable star; the position and the change and acceleration of the position; the proper motion and its change with time; the mean epoch of the observations for both right ascension and declination; the standard deviations of the position and proper motion; the numbers of the star in the Boss General Catalog, the N30 catalog, and in the Durchmusterungs; and the parallax. The supplement has a flag to indicate duplicity but no information about variability or the second component. It has no information about the temporal change of the position and proper motion and does not list the N30 and Durchmusterung numbers. It also omits the mean epoch for the observations.

Title:
FRBCAT: The Fast Radio Burst (FRB) Catalog
Short Name:
J/other/PASA/33.
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Here, we present a catalogue of known Fast Radio Burst sources in the form of an online catalogue, FRBCAT. The catalogue includes information about the instrumentation used for the observations for each detected burst, the measured quantities from each observation, and model-dependent quantities derived from observed quantities. To aid in consistent comparisons of burst properties such as width and signal-to-noise ratios, we have re-processed all the bursts for which we have access to the raw data, with software which we make available. The originally derived properties are also listed for comparison.
309. FR0CAT. a FIRST catalog of FR 0 radio galaxies

Title:
FR0CAT. a FIRST catalog of FR 0 radio galaxies
Short Name:
J/A+A/609/A1
Date:
04 Jan 2022 14:18:36
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
With the aim of exploring the properties of the class of FR 0 radio galaxies, we selected a sample of 108 compact radio sources, called FR0CAT, by combining observations from the NVSS, FIRST, and SDSS surveys. We included in the catalog sources with redshift <=0.05, with a radio size <=5kpc, and with an optical spectrum characteristic of low-excitation galaxies. Their radio luminosities at 1.4GHz are in the range 10^38^<={nu}L_1.4_<=10^40^erg/s. The FR0CAT hosts are mostly (86%) luminous (-21>=M_r_>=-23) red early-type galaxies with black hole masses 10^8^<=M_BH_<=10^9^M_{sun}_. These properties are similar to those seen for the hosts of FR I radio galaxies, but they are on average a factor ~1.6 less massive. The number density of FR0CAT sources is ~5 times higher than that of FR Is, and thus they represent the dominant population of radio sources in the local Universe. Different scenarios are considered to account for the smaller sizes and larger abundance of FR 0s with respect to FR Is. An age-size scenario that considers FR 0s as young radio galaxies that will all eventually evolve into extended radio sources cannot be reconciled with the large space density of FR 0s. However, the radio activity recurrence, with the duration of the active phase covering a wide range of values and with short active periods strongly favored with respect to longer ones, might account for their large density number. Alternatively, the jet properties of FR 0s might be intrinsically different from those of the FR Is, the former class having lower bulk Lorentz factors, possibly due to lower black hole spins. Our study indicates that FR 0s and FR I/IIs can be interpreted as two extremes of a continuous population of radio sources that is characterized by a broad distribution of sizes and luminosities of their extended radio emission, but shares a single class of host galaxies.
310. FRICAT. FIRST catalog of FR I radio galaxies
ID:

Title:
FRICAT. FIRST catalog of FR I radio galaxies
Short Name:
J/A+A/598/A49
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We built a catalog of 219 FR I radio galaxies (FR Is), called FRICAT, selected from a published sample and obtained by combining observations from the NVSS, FIRST, and SDSS surveys. We included in the catalog the sources with an edge-darkened radio morphology, redshift >=0.15, and extending (at the sensitivity of the FIRST images) to a radius r larger than 30kpc from the center of the host. We also selected an additional sample (sFRICAT) of 14 smaller (10<r<30kpc) FR Is, limiting to z<0.05. The hosts of the FRICAT sources are all luminous (-21>=M_r_>=-24), red early-type galaxies with black hole masses in the range 10^8^<=M_BH_<=3x10^9^M_{sun}_; the spectroscopic classification based on the optical emission line ratios indicates that they are all low excitation galaxies. Sources in the FRICAT are then indistinguishable from the FR Is belonging to the Third Cambridge Catalogue of Radio Sources (3C) on the basis of their optical properties. Conversely, while the 3C-FR Is show a strong positive trend between radio and [O III] emission line luminosity, these two quantities are unrelated in the FRICAT sources; at a given line luminosity, they show radio luminosities spanning about two orders of magnitude and extending to much lower ratios between radio and line power than 3C-FR Is. Our main conclusion is that the 3C-FR Is just represent the tip of the iceberg of a much larger and diverse population of FR Is.
