Publisher:
CDS
Description:
(Abstract in the documentation file "docu.txt") The "Southern Galaxy Catalogue" provides a finding list of galaxies larger than about 1.5 to 2 arc minutes, south of declination -17 degrees. It includes, as far as possible, precise positions, morphological types, luminosity classifications, and diameters. It is essentially complete for logD>1.52.
782. Southern Milky Way galaxies velocities

Title:
Southern Milky Way galaxies velocities
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
A redshift survey of galaxies located in the direction of the southern Milky Way has been carried out using the FLAIR multi-objects system on the 1.2-m UK Schmidt Telescope (UKST) at the Anglo-Australian Observatory in Australia. The galaxy sample was extracted from the LEDA (<http://www-obs.univ-lyon1.fr/base/>) and COSMOS (Cat. <J/A+AS/117/519>) data bases but essentially by scanning by eye four plates of the UKST/SERC Survey in the region between the Centaurus complex and the Pavo-Indus (PI) wall. The galaxies selected have high central surface brightnesses and are distributed evenly over the whole search area. The majority of the galaxies have apparent magnitudes in the range 11.5<B_J_<17. Redshifts were determined for 211 galaxies with one additional object being found to be Galactic - a planetary nebula. A highly significant density enhancement is found in the galaxy distribution at 5000km/s or 67Mpc (H_0_=75km/s/Mpc). This suggests that a connection exists between the Centaurus complex and the PI wall across the zone of avoidance (ZOA) associated with the Milky Way and as such could be one of the larger structures in the nearby Universe.

784. Spectral galaxy pairs from SDSS DR9
ID:

Title:
Spectral galaxy pairs from SDSS DR9
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/444/2456
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Spectral galaxy pairs (hereafter as SGPs) are composite galaxy spectra that contain two independent redshift systems. These spectra are useful for studying the dust properties of the foreground galaxies. In this article, a total of 165 spectra of SGPs are mined from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 9 (DR9) using the concept of 'membership degree' from fuzzy set theory, especially defined to be suitable for fuzzy identification of emission lines. The spectra and images of this sample are classified according to their membership degree and image features, respectively. Many of the second redshift systems are too small or too dim to select from SDSS images alone, making the sample a potentially unique source of information on dust effects in low-luminosity or low surface brightness galaxies, which are underrepresented in morphological pair samples. The dust extinction of those objects with high membership degree is also estimated by Balmer decrement. Additionally, analyses for a series of spectroscopic observations of one SGP from 165 systems indicate that a newly star-forming region of our Milky Way might exist.
785. Spectral survey of Case emission-line galaxies
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/A+AS/131/295
Title:
Spectral survey of Case emission-line galaxies
Short Name:
J/A+AS/131/295
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The results of the follow-up spectroscopy of 178 emission-line galaxy (ELG) candidates from the Case objective-prism survey and nine Markarian galaxies with the 6m telescope are described. Only the candidates classified in the Case survey as those with emission lines were observed with the aim to form a statistical sample of blue compact galaxies (BCGs) with strong emission lines in the zone RA: 8h-16h, and DE: =+29deg-+38deg. We present the redshifts, equivalent widths and flux ratios for the strongest lines and the spectrum type for most of the galaxies with detected emission lines. A significant fraction (about 23%) of the observed Case galaxies do not show emission lines in blue. Preliminary analysis of the data is presented and the properties of the observed ELGs are compared with those of other known samples.
786. Spectroscopic and photometric redshifts
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJS/135/41
Title:
Spectroscopic and photometric redshifts
Short Name:
J/ApJS/135/41
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a comparison between the catalog of spectroscopic redshifts in the Hubble Deep Field (HDF) recently published by Cohen and collaborators (2000, cat. <J/ApJ/538/29>) and the redshifts that our group (Fernandez-Soto et al., 1999, Cat. <J/ApJ/513/34>) has measured for the same objects using photometric techniques. This comparison is performed in order to fully characterize the errors associated with the photometric redshift technique. The compilation of spectroscopic redshifts incorporates previously published results, corrections to previously published wrong values, and new data, and it includes over 140 objects in the HDF proper. It represents the deepest, cleanest, most complete spectroscopic catalog ever compiled.

Title:
Spectroscopic parameters of stars (SPECIES). I.
Short Name:
J/A+A/615/A76
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The detection and subsequent characterisation of exoplanets are intimately linked to the characteristics of their host star. Therefore, it is necessary to study the star in detail in order to understand the formation history and characteristics of their companion(s). Our aims are to develop a community tool that allows the automated calculation of stellar parameters for a large number of stars, using high resolution echelle spectra and minimal photometric magnitudes, and introduce the first catalogue of these measurements in this work. We measured the equivalent widths of several iron lines and used them to solve the radiative transfer equation assuming local thermodynamic equilibrium in order to obtain the atmospheric parameters (Teff, [Fe/H], logg, and {xi}_t). We then used these values to derive the abundance of 11 chemical elements in the stellar photosphere (Na, Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Ti, Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, and Zn). Rotation and macroturbulent velocity were obtained using temperature calibrators and synthetic line profiles to match the observed spectra isochrones, we were able to derive the mass, radius, and age for each star using a Bayesian approach. SPECIES obtains bulk parameters that are in good agreement with measured values from different existing catalogues, including when different methods are used to derive them. We find discrepancies in the chemical abundances for some elements with respect to other works, which could be produced by differences in Teff, or in the line list or the atomic line data used to derive them. We also obtained analytic relations to describe the correlations between different parameters, and we implemented new methods to better handle these correlations, which provides a better description of the uncertainties associated with the measurements.
788. Spectroscopic redshifts in strong lens fields
ID:

Title:
Spectroscopic redshifts in strong lens fields
Short Name:
J/ApJS/219/29
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the spectroscopic redshift catalog from a wide-field survey of the fields of 28 galaxy-mass strong gravitational lenses. We discuss the acquisition and reduction of the survey data, collected over 40 nights of 6.5m MMT and Magellan time, employing four different multiobject spectrographs. We determine that no biases are introduced by combining data sets obtained with different telescope and spectrograph combinations. Special care is taken to determine redshift uncertainties using repeat observations. The redshift catalog consists of 9768 new and unique galaxy redshifts. 82.4% of the catalog redshifts are between z=0.1 and z=0.7, and the catalog median redshift is z_med_=0.36. The data from this survey will be used to study the lens environments and line-of-sight structures to gain a better understanding of the effects of large-scale structure on lens statistics and lens-derived parameters.
789. Spectroscopic survey of WISE-selected sources
ID:

Title:
Spectroscopic survey of WISE-selected sources
Short Name:
J/AJ/143/7
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We report on the results of an optical spectroscopic survey at high Galactic latitude (|b|>=30{deg}) of a sample of WISE-selected targets, grouped by WISE W1 ({lambda}_eff_=3.4{mu}m) flux, which we use to characterize the sources WISE detected. We observed 762 targets in 10 disjoint fields centered on ultraluminous infrared galaxy candidates using DEIMOS on Keck II. We find 0.30+/-0.02 galaxies arcmin^-2^ with a median redshift of z=0.33+/-0.01 for the sample with W1>=120{mu}Jy. The foreground stellar densities in our survey range from 0.23+/-0.07arcmin^-2^ to 1.1+/-0.1arcmin^-2^ for the same sample. We obtained spectra that produced science grade redshifts for >=90% of our targets for sources with W1 flux >=120{mu}Jy that also had an i-band flux >=18{mu}Jy. We used this for targeting very preliminary data reductions available to the team in 2010 August. Our results therefore present a conservative estimate of what is possible to achieve using WISE's Preliminary Data Release for the study of field galaxies.
790. Spectroscopy and photometry of z~=5 galaxies
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJ/659/84
Title:
Spectroscopy and photometry of z~=5 galaxies
Short Name:
J/ApJ/659/84
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a new measurement of the integrated stellar mass per comoving volume at redshift 5 determined via spectral energy fitting drawn from a sample of 214 photometrically selected galaxies with z'_850LP_<26.5 in the southern GOODS field. Following recent procedures introduced by Eyles et al. (2007MNRAS.374..910E), we estimate stellar masses for various subsamples for which reliable and unconfused Spitzer IRAC detections are available. A spectroscopic sample of 14 of the most luminous sources with z{bar}=4.92 provides a firm lower limit to the stellar mass density of 1x10^6^M_{sun}_/Mpc^3^. We then consider a larger sample whose photometric redshifts in the publicly available GOODS-MUSIC catalog lie in the range 4.4<z<5.6.
